It was on one of their streams. All that was mentioned was that it was 'improved'

Just because you weren't aware doesn't mean it's not true.

Heard "we momentarily lost track of your face" 12 times and gave up

Face Scan requires a professional studio. lmfao, epic failure. I'm shocked that EA made an app that scans your face accurately. It's EPIC! tsk tsk 2k, I'm disappointed. Guess time to play my mplayer as someone else. I won't be in this year.

I got 19k on my latest scan and it was so off. I was so excited about the reference points and it was just a disappointment.

If you are getting double nose, eyes and mouth it's your own fault. You are move up and down to much. Hold your head steady when you turn.

I feel as if it has improved. I have around 13k ref. Points and a nice scan. Better than anything i did last year. Perfect? No. Improved? Yes.

I got 21+k reference points each time I scanned. My scan came out better in 2k15 because it didn't try to delete my facial hair so looked more like me. Below I will give tips how to get a great scan.

*** Use Daylight light bulbs rather then the normal ones that give of a yellowish glow. The Daylight kind gives off a light blueish glow which imitates natural light more.
*** Use a lamp like this http://www.walmart.com/ip/YOURZONE-P...-Lamp/21674362 and have lights point above your head or higher while also sitting under room light above you.and open windows for natural light. Have lamp about 5-6 feet away from you. More light the better as long as not directly on you. I actually got my lamp from Walmart for only $7 a few years but that closes I seen to mine.
*** Try to put only eyes and nose in the green box. The closer you are to camera, the more details it can pick up on your face and structure of it.
*** While scanning be very still and move head very slowly back and forth. Don't move head up, down or at a angle at all while moving head.
