Re: EA Sports UFC Free Content Update Available Now - Adds 4 New Fighters & Some Fixe

Understanding the amount of updates given to his game, and what looks to be extra efforts put into post-development, it's a positive. However, I think we are forgetting how barebones this game was from its initial release. Please understand I'm not calling out specific people, especially GamePlayDev. His presence and explanation of the goings on of this title has been much appreciated.

We have to look though at other titles in comparison and how each hold the same price tags but give different areas of depth in the content dept.. At times it is clear that the Dev team heard the fans and made updates based on what feedback they got, but other times it is obvious the game was rushed out (again, most likely not by devs but EA upper mgmt.) and certain elements had to be left out and then added along the way.

I remember Brizzo in an interview being asked if it was a Spring release and his eyes got big and he he said Summer. But my point is that while there has been a great amount of updates that are not consistent with how other titles work, there has also been an bobvious void this title carried from the start that caused a lack of depth to the overall experience.

Again, my intention isn't to call out guys like GamePlay and others that have shown great support, but I sure hope the upper EA mgmnt. doesn't look at how this title rolled out and call it acceptable for future releases of EA UFC and other sports gaming titles.
