That being said, do we have an ETA on when it'll be released?
True, but EA made similar promises in regards to the year wait for a next gen Hockey game & we all know how that turned out.

The compelling reason for the delay in releasing on NG consoles was the move from the nearly 10 year old Tiger engine to Frostbite 3. This was a move that HAD to be made due to all of the issues with the previous engine that restricted Tiburon's ability to add features to that engine without serious stability/performance issues. The RM Devs were seriously relieved to have a new engine to build on that is far more scalable than the old one.

if the game was on the ignite engine id be worried. Not so much with frostbite. I don't think we'll have a stripped down game. Just wish information would be coming out faster!!

I absolutely agree. The old Tiger engine SUCKED. A LOT of things were very unrealistic (i.e. The ball stopped DEAD when hitting trees, balls get slowed by tree branches, not stopped dead). Among other things that were very wonky.

One big difference is that EA still made NHL 14 for the last Gen consoles. They didn't actually take the year to get an additional year of work on a brand new engine.



I can't say that RM Golf will be as full featured as we hope for sure, but its situation is quite different.

Graphically, I'm a big fan of the Frostbite engine. I remember maybe 4 years ago thinking Tiger Woods might be a great fit with Frostbite. And here we are! The early pics are exactly what I was hoping to see. I will say that I am spoiled with the awesome course selection and creativity in The Golf Club. I will have trouble paying up for DLC courses now. Having to do that every year for the same courses was just screwing your fan base EA.
