Also , on top of the posters above, ill add this . Last year they touted CFM as getting more resources than ever, made this huge deal about it and the biggest thing they added was friggin drive goals ( i never saw 1 person ask for) along with a ticker to make sure you knew what your goals were. Changed Menus ( again, this seems to never stop) , and sim a win which was something many actually wanted.
Now this year they say CFM was a focus, made a big deal about it. Now you can say short dev cycle till your blue in the face. The fact is how they laid this out.First they talked about all the gameplay additions and changes, which seems like quite a large amount of stuff. So you take that and say CFM was a focus, sorry people do have a right to think, well if they added that much to gameplay, and CFM was a focus, it should add alot to it. They didnt.Bottom line. Not to mention Rex telling people on twitter when we would get the CFM Blog , he said saving the best for last.They lead people to believe it would be alot, "short dev" cycle or not. Not my fault, its theirs.
Also as others said, they have had CFM for 5 years now, and its still very shallow . They need to stop proclaiming its a focus and getting more resources than ever, and coming out with this weak stuff. Again, they are the ones that hyped it.Cant even blame marketing on it.Even Rex did.
As i said in another post, this whole "continuous development " stuff has yet to even be seen. So thats another thing they keep harping on, so they better deliver with it this year.Not just one small feature added with it.That wont really cut it.Also , they need to think about something with that. Do you know who the majority of people are who are still playing CFM in dec-march? The real core of CFM Players.Most are online leagues, and most all of them HATE having being 3-6 seasons into building a team and then having to scrap it all and restart just to get a feature in that was tossed in a patch.It kind of kills alot of things in an online league because the entire reason most are in them is they like to build a team up and see what they can create thru drafts ,trades and fa.But it really sucks when you just got your team looking how you want , only to have to restart to get a feature that should have already been in the game,thats just now being tossed in .
So , while this whole "continuous development " sounds great on the surface, its also not that great if its not implimented well. So if they are adding things, they need to add it so that people dont have to just restart everything in order to use it ( ex- xp sliders) .
