Re: NHL 15 Post-Launch Content Update
Rammer,
Thanks for taking time to come on here and answer some questions. I think it says a lot about you and the team at EA. There's a lot of people that are extremely angry at the missing features in NHL 15 and while I'm not happy about some of them, I truly believe that you guys have done everything in your power to bring us the best hockey game you can. I'm not a programmer so I cannot begin to understand the intricacies of making a game, especially an annualized game on a new platform, but I'm sure it's complicated.
It's easy for us, as gamers, to sit back and complain about missing features but I'm sure that it was at all possible you guys would have pushed out a fully featured game with NHL 15. Unfortunately, this is the way it goes for sports games on new consoles it seems. Except for MLB The Show, which is a port just with higher resolution player models and "completely rebuilt stadiums" that look exactly the same from the Playstation 3, minus better resolution.
I'm somewhat disappointed at some of the missing features, but I'm still eager to play the game. I've bought and played every EA hockey game since NHLPA 93 on the Sega Genesis and I'm very much so looking forward to playing NHL 15 on the Playstation 4 on Tuesday.
Lastly, I think that some of you guys that are completely bashing EA and calling them money-hungry are a bit misguided. Sure it's a corporation that is out to make a profit but if anyone thinks that they want to put out a cheap product and charge as much as possible for it, you're wrong. And for the people that are taking shots at Rammer himself, really? I'm sure he's paid a handsome salary for what he does but I guarantee he wants to make the best hockey game possible, as does everyone on their team. In the end I'm going to guess Rammer cares a lot more about how good the game is as opposed to how much money EA Sports makes.
Keep doing your thing Rammer, and thanks for stopping by.
