I agree. I look at it like this. If it's something added to the game that makes it feel like Sunday whether I want it or not, it's a great additions.

The only thing I don't care about and hate that they spend time on is MUT because I view it as a money maker and does nothing towards making each game look and sound like Sundays.

Every fiber of my body wants to get on these boards and blast MUT and all who play it, but I refrain lol

Agreed. However I am not really bashing the mode. It's already been installed and as much as I don't agree with it and believe the implementation resources took away from gameplay fixes that were needed.

It was added a few years back, and it's there now, but no need to keep working on it and adding features to that when gameplay, presentation and franchise need work.

Why is this news??? This is like the "wind socks" push they had a few years ago. Manning says Omaha....OK *sigh*

It becomes big news if you make it big news.

I just found about this now and E3 was all last week. I didn't see it reported during E3, but after E3.

I'm ok with it being in the game because the media made a big deal about it last year in the playoffs, but it doesn't phase me one way or the other.

Opportunity cost.

I know, I know, each group works on different things. But could the people that recorded this have been recording mo-cap? Could they have been recording commentary for pre/half/post game show?

I guess this goes towards EA's simulation pledge, but man, seems like there are much, much more important things to address.

I just said this in another thread, but it applies here. Their wide net, segmented approach just doesn't do it for me. The game is great at abolutely nothing. Go all in on something and wow us. Do something that makes us say, "this crushes that other game!" As is, these micro improvements allow us to make comparisions to games 6+ years old.

It's a tough balance I enjoy MUT (it is the devil) and would like to see some changes made in certain parts of that game mode. But you are correct "free" modes and gameplay should be the priority but with the amount of money MUT makes i'm not surprised that other modes aren't getting as much attention as they deserve.

Exactly, we all know that many areas of gameplay need to be fixed but it is mind numbing how some ppl complain about everything added to the game that is not directly related to gameplay or franchise mode. This isn't exactly "ground breaking news" but it is something that will add realism to one of the biggest icons in the history of the sport.
