Closed Rant

Redirecting from the discussion that was closed after a few fanboys spiked the thread:

http://www.operationsports.com/forum...age-again.html

We're all entitled to an opinion, yes I sparked heat from the discussion, but that's what forums are intended for. Debate and discussion within a specified community.

I won't bash the comments that were given, because they are all opinions, just as mine was. But the facts I laid out still remain, quality is lacking but the couple of graphic improvements and player movements looks a little bit better.

I can also guarantee that developers left out tricks they could have implemented this year, so they can use it next year. It's a matter of dollars to every one of them, and the fanboys rejoice every year without fail that it's the best one to date. OF COURSE IT'S THE BEST ONE SO FAR, IT'S THE NEWEST! Still doesn't negate the fact that it's repeated issues keep repeating!!

Since you're willing to guarantee it, can you list some tricks that were left out? I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on that.

You are entitled to your opinion and they are entitled to theirs. You can't come on this website with huge fans of the game an expect to give an unpopular opinion (that most of us think is way off base) and expect nobody to criticize it.

Re: Closed Rant

So basically there is a conspiracy by EA to not produce the best game they can. and you intend to complain every year until the game is perfect. Seems legit to me where do i sign up?

I couldn't tell you, because you're not a high enough clearance level to obtain that information... I get my information from the top.

I agree I can't expect anyone to take my side, but at least join in the debate rather than constantly praising the title.

It's called marketing. You drum up a few new things, leave a few out, then you have a base for the next release.

I disagree with you on this one...I am a huge fan of EA college football but I agree with his claims...Will I still buy the game probably yess but I do believe the it's a marketing strategy by EA done on purpose year in and year out. We still buy it because we love college football.....

So u think EA purposefully withheld foot planting last year so they could get u hyped about it this year?

It's not about the specifics... There isn't one thing you can say they left out intentionally, but it doesn't make sense that they would learn so slowly about the elements of the game.

Exactly. EA has been doing it for years. And as long as EA's NCAA is the only college football game, they will continue to go with hype over quality.

The real question is now that you are aware of this, will you continue to buy EA's game? Most people are.

Re: Closed Rant

Im sure the OP is right about marketing and such but you also have to take into account they may have new Ideas to implement but its not just flip a switch and it works... alot of that stuff when they first try it out doesnt work well with what they already have, in essence they can try and put everything they want in the game but to fine tune every new feature so its not buggy or trippy by release is the real difficulty I would assume.. so naturally somethings will get left out until next cycle
