Last week. EA reached out to me, asked and I accepted. Shout out to GameplayDev who I think suggested me. The only downside is I had to step down as an admin on OS. You cant be on the staff and have a direct connection to a game company.

The first event is going to be in early October. I'll have to sign an NDA so I wont be able to talk about much until we get closer to release and EA gives me the go ahead.

One thing I'm excited about is that I think I'll be able to give some real input on the game and hopefully can help push it on a more realistic path.

Lol. Aholbert said **** being an admin, I'm trying to rock some UFC. I respect it. Hold it down for us, man.

And the view from the top of the EA building there is awesome. I'm pretty sure they'll take you up there.

LOL. I cant say it was a hard decision between playing the game months early and dealing with banning people.

Now that Aholbert has offline covered, who are the other game changers? These online issues need to be addressed as well.

They have 5 of them all from the EA forums and a guy MMAGAME from Youtube right now. I think they may name a few others. I think those guys have online covered. They seem to have a good amount of knowledge and seem excited about the opportunity.

Still would like to see more offline players going since everyone else going is an online player. Way too many online guys for a game that is so heavily dependent on offline players. I guess EA thinks just throwing some offline modes will please offline players.

At least one is going though. Just don't feel confident though in a company that still doesn't realize who their audience is. I am confident in guys like GameplayDevUFC, but he is a dev unlike any other I have seen. Devs can only do so much as well since it is producers and guys like Brizzo who control the direction of the games.
