EA - disrespecting their fans

[chandlerbang]

Ther is no reason for some kind of clarification on whether this game will be released. They have even cut communicaiton on the official live 13 site and the mods there have been missing while the few faithful left are highly frustrated and calling out EA! 2k is a BEAST this year but after all this time , EA needs to man up and reply to the outcrys and release SOMETHING so people can stop worring about this game. If this is a marketing ploy its a horrible decision because they are losing support even more now with less than 50 days till release. If they are gonna do this to their nba series, i cant wait to see what happens if the NFL dosnt renew the exclusive contract and 2k gets into that also. EA on behalf of nba fans everywhere ( 2k and live) we are all calling you out

It seems that EA is in a position where they are damned if they do, damned if they don't.

The sooner you realize EA doesn't care two bits about you, except for the 60 bucks in your wallet, the better of you're going to be.

Re: EA - disrespecting their fans

Is it fair to assume the game isn't coming out? How could they not show anything of live 13 by now?

[iRepIndiana]

They still have fans?

Well, at this point they are only damned if they don't, because they haven't gotten around to the doing.

While extremely valid, there are companies (few) that genuinely care about a quality game over money. Obviously their goal is to make money, but they care about quality more than the final line.

True, it's actually just like the sports teams that we all know and love. While some owners don't give a **** about anything but turning a profit with their teams you do have some owners that while making money is a primary goal, they legit want to put out a winner for themselves and the fans.

The game will not be releasing this year, I dont know how much more clear it could be made without them just holding a press conference and opening themselves up to a ton of questioning.

Re: EA - disrespecting their fans

I don't know what you guys expect from them. If they have nothing to say, why say anything. It's clear that either they don't know yet, or they have a plan to lay low until the time is right. I understand the frustration, but really, is it killing you that much? It's not as if you've gotten anything from them in the last 2 years anyway. So what is one more year?

Winning = more fans, more $

Quality NBA sim = more fans, more $

I think they work hand in hand

Re: EA - disrespecting their fans

how could they go two years without making a game and still not have at least a decent product to be advertised and sold when it is supposed to be released...

Re: EA - disrespecting their fans

Not sure if EA is disrespecting their fans . I feel like they are worried that 2k is just that much better than their game .
