Ex-IGNer Tina Palacios replacing Bowling as Infinity Ward community manager

3.9
When Call of Duty's main public face, Robert Bowling, left his longtime spot as creative strategist at Infinity Ward earlier this year, he left a tank-sized hole in the studio. Though she's small in stature, ex-IGN/1UP community manager Tina Palacios aims to fill that spot in the coming days, IGN reports.

Palacios is taking up the job of "senior community manager" at Infinity Ward – the studio that created the Modern Warfare series, but is most recently known for a nasty legal battle involving its former creative leads.

"I can't say what my official duties are yet," Palacios told us. "But I definitely want to bridge the gap between devs and fans – making sure their voices are heard." There'll be some adjustment of course, she admitted. "The amount of comments I'll receive will probably be much larger than I've experienced at IGN or 1UP, but I'll still do my best." We imagine it won't be too long before we hear more from her. Say, oh, seven to eight months from now? Just a guess.

God, all of these little immature sexist. I have a question for you how are you going to react when you have a girlfriend and you say that next day she breaks up with you, you wouldn't say a work in the kitchen joke then would you? Anyways back to the article. She may be a woman but maybe that's what CoD needs is a fresh new gender to help with the making of CoD. In reality there's a great amount of women who play CoD, they just get online too much cause of all the little sexist. She says that she wants to help improve the CoD series well if you ask me she may be a great idealist on the series and may bring the series back to its greatest days. However she may take it too far with trying to help the community from feedback however she may also only look at what looks like it would make the series better.

vQuadZv Most of the people are probably little kids who still think girls have cooties. Get the **** over with it, also, girls aren't meant to be in the kitchen, I am not that lazy to get up and make myself something to eat.

You sound like your tough... And I'm pretty sure that 99% of the kids on here wouldn't day they have cooties meaning it.

Now away from that ffagg^^^, she said she doesn't know what all duties she will be actually doing. Plus having someone knew in that position, even a girl, it may be good for the Cod Crowd.



"Now away from that ffagg^^^, I know you ain't talking to me. Your probably 10 years old too. Also, you don't know how many kids under the age of 13 are on this website. I have/had more than 2000 posts and I joined last year in April.


You're older than 13 and have the name "vQuadZv", be freaking ashamed of yourself.


Well, I joined my friends clan, and he is a short asian kid(Don't know him in real life). I hate him now, the clan name was called VindictiV. I joined it and the name had to be similar, he was vFadeZv and I was this, I want to change my name but I can't. So quit trolling and stop making people kill themselves.
"and he is a short asian kid..."

I'm getting a sense of racism from you.

i just hope shes can handle the job and do it correctly. Can't wait to see what will happen next.

KramaticPosted:

If anything she'll make it better, because she apparently claims to bridge the gap between the developers and fans.

Her appearance doesn't change how she will affect the series, nor does her gender. Robert Bowling was of course a great community manager, but who knows whether or not she's going to be creative, innovative and have ideas that we'll all enjoy? I'm sure she has ideas, but she already has a plate full of leftovers from Robert for MW3. I'm sure she'll do her job great, and she seems as though she is willing to listen to the fans/community. Easily respectable.
