Hey guys,

The changes are for both console, minus a few next-gen exclusive features.

The blog had me hyped but we are still 5 days from release with ZERO true gameplay footage. Where is it? There is no excuse for not releasing gameplay clips to show these improvements and let us see for ourselves. This feels like a movie release with no reviews.

Defense was also a major focus on the new gen AI front. Da Czar (our resident X’s and O’s expert) and the AI team wanted to create a strong foundation to build on for many years to come. A lot of legacy issues were addressed through complete and thorough rewrites of almost all of the major defensive systems in the game.

so as i understand this, these new defensive ai mechanics (and basic fundamentals that have been frustrating us all for years) are NOT implemented into the last gen version, only the next gen one?

yeah, i wouldn't recommend that either... regarding ANY game from ANY company, for that matter. there's too much reliance by companies on patches in this age of video games.

They'll be in both versions.

thanks, but how do you figure? aren't they two completely separate games now? or are they both built from the same foundation and then branched off to the old and new gen as far as graphics, motion, etc?
