This. And besides, most sports games don't show full unedited gameplay months before launch or even weeks. Usually highlighted gameplay featuring new modes and stuff like that. We saw raw gameplay from EA play. Most other games don't do that so far from release.

And we have been told we will get raw gameplay in August from the devs. Just like last year. This all has absolutely nothing to do with pride. And almost everything to do with marketing.

Game is done.... By the time you package disks and ship them out your looking at around 3 weaks. Those games have to be in stores by 8/22. I remember reading something a few years back that stated that come August 1st the game is set up for packaging and shipping . As far as patches , those are still in the works and can drop digitally once approved. But like I stated , come 8/1 it's a safe bet to start to see vids of the game because it is what we will see at launch.

And I can't remember a time that there wasn't a release day patch which gives credence to the statement that the game isn't done yet regardless of the gold date.

That just justifies my post.... The game is done and they are working on patches. But as far as final product, it is done. And those release day patches are not that specific for what they incorporate. Is it core gameplay? Is it MUT? They are not that specific sometimes. If EA dropped a gameplay video tomorrow, it would not be far off from any patch that's coming on release day. In other words, most people won't see the difference in 5 minute videos.
