Mitch joins CA

[Maximinus Thrax]

Now we've got a man on the inside

Actually he's the third TWC member who joins CA, after Jack Lusted and DarrenTW. I see everything is going according to the plan - TWC will assume control of CA before the next TW game is out.

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

Darren, Mitch... I right little TWC group forming at CA. Make sure you guys say hello at the HQ.

A huge congratz Mitch, great news - you must be overjoyed.

I am very happy that one modder joined CA. On the other hand i am unhappy for so many legendary modders that we lost from total war modding forever like King Kong, DARTH VADER or Germanicu5. Well maybe it's because CA wanted to move forwards and forget about the past, both King Kong and Germanicu5 were old school guys sticked to Medieval 2, Darth was different since he modded unti fall of the samurai. Anyway congrats to mitch and i hope to hire the best people from total war center.

I also want to ask, do you think to make a thread or a poll or a contest or something like that, where every month the community will vote for a person to take into consideration to work with you as full or part time or even as freelancer or outsourcer? There are many tallented people around the forums from all games and engines from Rtw to Attila.

Congrats sir mitch on making it to there. Honestly you bringing in tanks to NTW will be one of most known modding achievement into the TW series. *Single tear goes down his eye*

[foot soldier]

Excellent aquisition . TW WW1 on the horizont .

[Dynamo11]

We can only hope the TWC acquisitions push Total War back to where it should be, either that or they'll be assimilated into CA's way of thinking. Probably the latter

[Sebidee]

I think CA's way of thinking is probably what it should ​be. I mean they do, like, own the franchise and all

Those modders are terrible. Okay, maybe just Darth. Darth Vader was terrible.

Congrats Mitch ! Can't really say it came as a surprise to me though as I've been saying this for years now

Mark my words, Mitch will one day become a CA employee

[tungri_centurio]

[Maetharin]

Good for you Mitch, I just hope CA see how talented you really are and give you some artistic freedom!!!
I wouldn´t even mind paying for DLCs made by you^^

[Ritter-Floh]

Wow, congratulations, Mitch! Glad to see CA has an eye for talent

[alhoon]

Hi all,

I’m delighted to announce that we have a new addition to the staff here at CA towers, with a name that some of you might immediately recognise. Joining us as a design intern on Jack Lusted’s New Content Team is Mitch Heastie, often known on the forums as “Mitch”, or “.Mitch.”

He comes to us with a long and rich heritage modding our games. You may know him from the mod “The Great War”, which brought tanks – yes, tanks – to Napoleon: Total War’s battlefields. He’s something of a wizard for thinking outside the box, too, as seen from work on his recent “Manpower” mod for Total War: ROME II, which impressed us so much we asked him to present it to us and the rest of the modder delegates at the recent annual Total War Mod Summit.

The guys here were fascinated by what he’d come up with and were keen to sit down and talk to him some more. Long story short, that resulted in Mitch joining us at the studio in a full time capacity.

We’ll be asking Mitch to document some of his experiences here at CA, so you’ll hear from him soon, and perhaps see him on the odd Twitch stream if we can persuade him. And, indeed, he’ll have a brand new shiny CA forum account by the time you read this, so he’ll no doubt pop in the thread himself to say hi.

Please all join us in welcoming Mitch to sunny Horsham!


Craig.

CONGRATULATIONS TO MITCH FOR GETTING A NICE, NICE JOB! ! ! ! (You do still have those icecream days, right?)
A happy day for us that such an awesome modder will be directly involved in the games!

(And a note: While I like manpower mods, I really, really like them, I believe they should be optional and not part of the core game. Just saying. )

[General Maximus]

A hearty congratulations to Mitch, although the enormous talent he has means it was bound to happen sooner or later.

[Krystoforos]

Always good news to see how CA recruits the best and brightest of the fans, as Lusted before and now Mitch attests.

New moustache here new haircut there and you have dlc for 7EUR JUPI! New content team.... Creative Assembly isn't very creative. Maybe they should change the name for Hoary old chestnut and poor DLCs Assembly.

[Lord Baal]

Good of him! Now, LISTEN TO HIM AND DO AS HE SAY!

[DeathtoEgo]

Congrats and all that, but the selfish side of me is wondering if this means we won't be getting any more awesome modding tools from him anymore?

Maybe, but we'll be getting awesome games from him instead now.
