INB4 they all lose their jobs now. Hope you don't have a kid on the way :)Good work guys! Really learned that lesson from Ubisoft Halifax and countless others.
Sorry, shit OP. Link:https://rockstarintel.com/gta-6-developers-announce-rockstar-games-union/
>>739891220unions are ok. Its nice knowing that your company can't just suddenly jew you out of a job but not being able to fire bad workers has destroyed society. Not sure what this means for rockstar who is already struggling to get this game made with infinite wealth and assets
>>739891220mfs are trying everything to fuck with rockstar
>>739891220It's not like the company and its games can become shittier
>>739891474If they can get going. Ubisoft Halifax voted on theirs and won, next day all jobs are gone. They were all welfare DEI jobs for Atlantic Canada Negroes, but still.
>>739891220That'd be funny if it was Rockstar India that did this
>>739891220GTA 6 will be the last good game this company makes.
>>739893935>GTA 6 will be the last game this company makes.FTFY
>>739891220die commies
>>739891220>INB4 they all lose their jobs nowNo shot they do that in the game's release year since that would delay the game even more.Would be pretty funny if this causes a delay anyway.
>>739894220Yeah, I was implying AFTER release. I do think their fate is sealed
They saw the sk hynix and samsung memory workers bonuses (winning the lottery more or less) and know how much money this game is going to make no matter what so they're trying to get ahead of that.
>>739894003>>GTA 6 will be the latest game this company makes. >FTFYFY
>Expendable worker ants think they aren't expendable
>>739891220Can a union save them from the "The game is out so we don't need you anymore" layoffs?
>>739896481In any case Take two can always hire more Indians that will both work for them and defend them on xitterImagine still being excited for this dumpster fire loel
>>739891220Maybe now they can try making a good game for once
>>739891220>OP is a union-busting, retarded, child-raping faggotkek. don't check the early history section on this wikipedia page
>>739896731Yes... that's the whole point of collective bargaining. Now that the CEO has stated to all his shareholders and the world that the release date is firm developers can say, "Alright, we're going to stop working entirely unless you sign this agreement stating you will not layoff any worker post launch for 24 months minimum and we get a 10% cut of all shark cards sold." He'll have to pay too, because his bonuses are tied to stock performance which will tank if the game doesn't release the day he's firmly stated.Unions are based. CEOs make at least 1,000x what the people who do the real work to make the game earn. That's morally wrong. Only kikes disagree.
I've worked with unions for years. I've been a president (local) and a steward in 2 different ones. I've also been a manager several times, some in places that had unions and those that didn't. I'll give my two cents nobody asked for.There is no way this will end well. Rockstar is bloated, but they do produce good results. You don't see shortcuts when it comes to their actual product. I don't personally care for the newer GTAs or RDR2, but I don't deny they are well polished and detailed. A lot goes into these games. Rockstar also takes an extremely long fucking time to make a game. That's with management no doubt breathing down people's necks without roadblocks. To achieve the next GTA with the same quality - let alone superior - with a union? I don't see that happening. Something will give. They'll have to hire a lot more people but that's generally not a good idea. Unions often hampered my ability to get rid of shit employees. As soon as they stop fearing their jobs, they start slacking. Then everyone starts complaining that you aren't holding them accountable when it's not longer a simple "get the fuck out." I had so many bad employees that brought down morale. One in particular I fought to get rid of over the course of 5 fucking years. It took so many documented incidents before general council finally signed off on it. It's absolutely ridiculous.Unions are great when you have nothing but good workers. But even a handful of bad ones and the entire place will spoil. Just my input.
>>739891220why would they lose their jobs? Unions are basic worker rights in every 1st world country
>>739891220I hope they all get fired and the company shuts down permanently. You get what you fucking deserve for making Read Dead Redemption 1 a console exclusive. Likewise with excluding GTA6 from a PC release. They are a nefarious company and you expect me to give a shit about these scumbags? Dan Houser and Sam Houser themselves were involved with setting that precedent long ago. They also half arsed the port of IV for PC and made it so the game couldn't scale across more than 4 CPU cores as i recall. These motherfuckers deserve to be six feet deep in the ground for being the laziest most expensive company in the industry.
>>739897887Because unity is the opposite of diversity.Guess which one our overlords force upon us.
>>739897726could you not isolated that bad worker?
>>739891220>>739891262mega based
>>739897285If rockstar doesn't agree to those terms do the workers just get fired?
>>739898390Nope, they're based out of the JewK which has pretty good protections against that. They can't legally be fired for attempting to Unionize. Even in the US you can't. But the company could invent some reason to fire them based on some recorded previous infractions.
>>739898562>>739898390To clarify further no, a union trying to bargain with an employer is not something you can be fired over. Striking (stopping work) when the employer isn't willing to compromise is a legal/protected action that cannot be met with dismissal. But again they could invent some old reason.
>>739898250He was isolated. But he still had an important job. People complained about being held up by his part. But because the stupid company had no form of productivity or standards, as long as he was "staying busy" wasn't shit I could do. It's on the extreme end of examples, but there was plenty of people that weren't too far behind him.I had people begging for these lazy fucks jobs that I knew could do it better and more deservingI don't mind if people support unions. I support workers rights and it's why I joined them. But understand both sides of the coin. And understand it's not necessarily good or bad, it's just consequences. It may turn out good for Rockstar but bad for the customer in some way for example. Also be aware that, while I happen to have a lot of integrity, a lot of my stewards or other union members ran the thing like a mob. Often making deals with managers and having favorite associates. They didn't care about neutrality. Some even shit talked employees and said they'd never represent them out of personal beef. They got to go on "field trips" and shit. Unions are just another form of management and that means corruption. They don't care about the employee any more than the manager does. Well, in my experience, the managers tended to care more about the employee than the unions did. They need their employees.
>>739891793I wouldn't trust a single one of those faces to make a good game
I don't care for these trash games but I do enjoy watching these people suffer
>yaas queens... unions.... slay>just turn out to be lazy Marxist revolutionaries that hate being cracked with a whip to improve their already terrible efficiency>start whining to Jason Schreier about their make believe issues of crunch and being overworked in their already lazy jobs
>>739891220What's to stop rockstar from firing them all and replacing them with remote work Indians? The only reason they didn't do that to begin with because developers just allow themselves to be treated like sweatshop workers
>>739891220>socialist retards forget that the company founders who made the company successful can literally just leave with golden handshakes and start another company>all thats left behind are the mid wit retards and the company implodeslol LAMO evenBungie xisters should we tell him?
>>739899139because the game's already been delayed like three times and the CEO publicly said it won't be delayed again and new hires won't be familiar with the workflow or tools or content or codebase during the prerelease crunch
>>739899103Which is it, are they pro-Islam or anti-kike? You can't be both.
>>739899031I only wish I could watch them be brutally tortured
>>739891793the asian with braids is cute tho
>>739891474This.Trade unions are completely normal and accepted in all developed nations, except *that one*.
>>739899502todays unions bend over for the company though
>>739899502depends on the country. US unions ARE the kikes you miga faggotEU trade unions are literally legal mafias for the trade
>>739899031uhh based
>>739899601ok abraham just dont check how much the union reps are paid via garnishing worker wages
>>739891220Holy fuck, did Rockstar know GTA6 was going to be that bad that they decided this was the better option?
>>739899502>You must be one nasty kike loving faggot to be anti-unionI don't hate Jews at all. I'm not either the communists or nazis on this website and if you're doing a shit job like you socialists most often do then you deserve to suffer the consequences for it. You already work in the most lazy fields imaginable like video game development. You don't do hard labor or anything.
>>739899502>>739899858Newfags arguing with newfags lmao
This thread shouldn't be about politics.This thread should be about laughing at these morons.
>>739899431looks derpy
>>739899921btw i'm trans! ^W^
>>739891474>unions are ok. Its nice knowing that your company can't just suddenly jew you out of a job but not being able to fire bad workers has destroyed societyHow do manufactures guarantee parts when they go out of business?
>>739900151You're a lazy bastard, that's right.And you've all been hired in excessively high numbers too even though these companies your employed at don't even need you. There's often a meme that goes around that modern game development studios are just adult daycare for useless morons and it's absolutely correct.Modern games studios spend more than they should to make games because they have a bunch of useless activist devs draining resources with merely their presence. Such is that example with Rockstar games putting a bunch of political shit on their protest signs.
>>739894707their fate was sealed anywaystypical strategy for last 20 years is to lay off 50%-70% of production staff after release if you don't have another project in the worksmainly affected artists and qa
>>739899280>CEO publicly said it won't be delayed againAs if that ever stop them, this game is going to get another delay to 2027 lmao
This game is going to be delayed again to February 2027, mark my words
>>739900084Lying ass nigger.https://chat.deepseek.com/share/jg6g49i7q2tt615km7
>>739891793Bros i think im in loveShes probably into tall white guys like me as well, since all female asians fetishize WMAF
It's really interesting how much discourse here boils down to labels and bandying around unquantifiable adjectives, then when you refuse to humor their standing for being too poorly defined or conveying poor understanding, they're like "bawww you made discourse impossible." Because somehow in these people's internet-crackhead minds, EVERYBODY knows about le Jewish conspiracy and all the other random shit they specifically looked for through Google and Wikipedia and shockingly found. You're actually just retards. People don't humor you because you're fucking dumb.

>>739901202Sorry, no good for you. I found your looksmatch tho
unions only work when its a homogenous group like korea. this will never work since its all woke californian dei goyim and they will backstab each other at any opportunity.
For those "in the know" you should be happy. You know this is going to fuck them over, and you want it to. You weren't gonna buy the wokeslop remake. Why stop the other retards from talking it up? Let them promote their union, in fact you should be reminding them of the gender pay gap right now instead of talking them out of it.
why do game devs always want to heckin unionize?
>union no thanks
>>739902587no game devs want to unionize, it's always the employees. It always comes down to jealous petty bullshit, they're probably mad at their uppity VA's for getting behind the "pay VA's what their worth" campaign.
>>739891220they all lose their jobs now. Hope you don't have a kid on the way :)
>>739902670the message is shit but they are righti worked for a union store for 5 yearsthey "got us" a 1 dollar raisenext week union dues went up 6 dollars a weekafter taxes its hardly even a raise at that pointswitched to a non union company and now i make more money i get company stock every year and i save 20 bucks a week on dues
>Unionizing at the END of game developmentfucking retards man
>>739891793This is Rockstar's main office though, they're the core of the production.
>>739899502Why do you leftists think if you use racist terms you can guilt right wingers to support retarded shit? This doesn't work but it's been your main tactic here for years
>>739902932Nigga what? That's Ubisoft Halifax. Unless you mean OP story then yeah, that makes sense.
>>739902876nope, this final 5 months of crunch time is crucial for the game's development. All the devs said they need another 5 months on top of that. the company can't fire them (legal reasons aside) because otherwise it won't released on the date shareholders were promised. i also guarantee a million jeets couldn't replace their work properly if they were tasked to
>>739891220Good for them, but I will laugh my ass off if we actually get another game delay from this.
>>739897285>the release date is firm developers can say, "Alright, we're going to stop working entirely unless you sign this agreement stating you will not layoff any worker post launch for 24 months minimum and we get a 10% cut of all shark cards sold."why is extortion legal when a group does it
>>739903104Cool and then after 5 months they dump them
>>739897726I was also in an union once. The only thing I accomplish was they increased the budget for bathroom supplies and punishment for employees that damaged said supplies or the bathrooms.
>>739903489OK, and male bathrooms in Canada re mandated to have tampons and pads.WE. ARE. NOT. THE. SAME.
My guess is at least half the workforce is just women yapping. They dont do anything or have value so they are unionizing to continue being parasites.
Rockstar will announce mass layoffs and a delay in two weeks
>>739900151>either WFH or have a cushy desk job with private office>aircon and heating>catered lunch most days>all your boss wants is some goddamn content created in your "8 hour" work day (4 hours actually working, 3 hours yapping, and 1 hour arriving late and leaving early)>"wE nEeD a UnIoN!!!11"
>>739903649Can't they just use toilet paper?
>>739904325Can you spare a square?
>>739903649Good thing I don't live in a pozzed country. At least for now.Another thing we had, is that you don't need to be part of the union to get union's benefits. Besides the money, every union right was for all us cattle.
>>739891474>your company can't just suddenly jew you out of a jobThat's exactly what bumping rights do. One of the reasons unions lost power in the States is because younger workers basically get screwed at every opportunity.
>>739904483>Besides the money, every union right was for all us cattle.How does that work? You don't get paid union wage, but you got the bennies?Is this one of those things where you need to work your way up to be unionized in a job by sticking it out on the lower rung for a bit?
>>739903160When a group does it, it's called collusion and racketeering. Except if you're in a union or guild, in which case it's called collective bargaining.
>>739899335But those two are synonymous
Right after GTA6 comes out they're definitely shutting down at least a few of the major studios they've got and expanding their HQ over in jeetland. It's inevitable now.
>>739891220Women should be excluded automatically. They already have fortune 500 in life, there's no need to increase that even more.
