@Bartas: three skin sets (a set covering all the vehicles in a given faction). So dozens of skins per set, and even more so per bundles since both of them offer three sets.

@Kell: we haven't forgotten about the other kind of content We still strive to work on quarterly updates with fixes, balance patches, new community maps etc.

@FrAlex_RE:
Businesslike answer, ok, but fact is: here we wait for content news or patch news.
Charity at its best is public relation? Sure we all want to help nature and donating isn't the worse on earth, but it would be much more successful when you motivate people with content not just with skins again...
Here is a much stronger player base than at DOW3 for example and after months of waiting we get a skinpack offered... some are frustrated like the whales!

Using state-of-the-art equipment, a group of activists, led by renowned dolphin trainer Ric O'Barry, infiltrate a cove near Taijii, Japan to expose both a shocking instance of animal abuse and a serious threat to human health.

Of course, company chief Satya Nadella later stipulated that games were key to Microsoft's "broader vision for Windows", and the company has since taken steps (from a Windows 10 'Game Mode' to the cross-platform Play Anywhere initiative) to improve the experience of people playing games across its platforms.

Xbox head Phil Spencer has received plenty of praise over the past few years for the way that the Xbox One has changed under his leadership. It's not just external parties who have taken notice. Microsoft just rewarded Spencer in a big way.

Spencer was just added to Microsoft's Senior Leadership Team, a 16-person group that's made up of executives and board of directors members. Apart from his increased influence over decisions, it's said that Spencer will now report directly to CEO Satya Nadella. Before, Spencer reported to Terry Myerson, who is the executive vice president of the Windows and Devices Group. The promotion also comes with a title bump from "head of Xbox" to "executive vice president of gaming."


While Xbox is still under the Windows and Devices Group banner, this change emphasizes Microsoft's video game-related efforts by giving a seat at the table to the head of gaming. It also underscores how the Xbox brand encompasses both console and Windows 10 now.

Studio Wildcard is the development company behind the game ARK: Survival Evolved. Studio Wildcard is a Seattle-based company that was founded in 2014 by Jesse Rapczak, who previously was a Technical Art Director at Microsoft Game Studios, and Jeremy Stieglitz, who was previously the creator of Dungeon Defenders.

While Microsoft is ready to embrace it but, Sony considers Cross-Platform Play a security risk for its console and PSN and Microsoft is quite critical of Sony’s logic behind not allowing it. According to Xbox head, Phil Spencer, the argument Sony is presenting is not healthy for the game industry. He added that user security is among Microsoft’s the top priorities.

Azario Lopez: What significance would you say the multiplayer feature plays in the Dawn of War series?

Phillip Boule: It’s hard to overstate the importance, Dawn of War sort of stands on two legs: one is a propelling campaign, they other is compelling multiplayer. This could be the reason that people still play Dawn of War twelve years after its release and Dawn of War II six years later. With any luck, five years from now we’ll be talking about how people are still playing the Dawn of War III multiplayer.

"The games is where the love of the community starts, then secondly for the studio, and thirdly there is the publisher. So at some point, the success of the studios will start to reflect on Sega."
