Since it's indirectly directed at me I'll answer. I was unable to play 2k online for over a month because I required an update that I could not get because their game wouldn't connect to the update server. It was a common error that there was no guaranteed way to fix. Magically one day after trying for over a month it worked again and I could get back online. That is what I was, and will continue to be, harping on as far as their servers/environment, not the disconnects as you mention.

2k does have a much better mode in MyGM, but why can't we play that same mode online with 29 other guys? If I could play a multi season MyGM mode online with 29 other guys I'd be over the moon.

actually, you would be wrong not directed at any 1 person, ive heard numerous others mention 2k server issues as well. My point was, this statement made was about them getting support ( funds) to be able to create such depth for franchise. Yes more so for offline mode, does madden have it offline or online even close to this? Nope, thats just facts.

My point was, 2k had the upper-hand to fire shots at EA and CFM but EA can just as easily fire back at 2k over the server issues. I am all for a good feud. It was more of a question though in reference to MyGM. Why can't they deliver that online? Seems kind of strange.

Its called twitter, there are other places other than OS.

While i agree on the issue with 2k servers, to me if EA goes that route to point that out,it will only seem more like they are trying to deflect the shade just thrown at them. At least Rex owned it, ill give him credit for that. Much better than trying to deflect to " change the subject" , like my 5 year old does when i point out something she has done wrong.

Well it's not so much a deflection as a round about way towards the server issues impact on a full franchise experience, but as you can see I edited my last post we are going to end up down a path that goes off the rails

One word.........



Wrong.

Well based on Rex tweeting that shots were fired they have acknowledged the shot was taken, and they aren't ignoring it, at least publicly.
