UNBELIEVABLE..

here we go again. actually he didnt lie about gameplay at all. now what is a slight lie is them showing those close ups of irving that look spot on. then you see the game in motion 5 vs 5 and its zoomed out like 10 levels away. so they look bad. and there's no options to choose from to change this.

that other thing someone posted and i posted to the EA site myself. where that guy is in dynasty mode and some how deandre jordan starts running point.

Goes to show that this could had been implemented in pass releases amongst all games.

Smh. Double edged sword for me. On one hand, I can appreciate the acknowledgement of how bad this game isfor an NG game, the apology and the promise to vastly improve what's there in coming months but the other hand is wtf were u thinking and trying to pull with this game. EA obviously didn't care. Strong narcissism from EA brass and I really don't blame the devs. I almost believe they put more money into FIFA because they are making more global bucks than with any other of their sports games so it seems they care more about that franchise than anyone else. That's just my perception. I don't know the sales numbers.

Before I said that this game wasn't bad and I actually meant to say it wasn't horrible which I don't believe it is but it's definitely bad and unacceptable for an NG game. I also believe they need to save the supposed improvements for 15. Just patch the minors and move on. Unless they can really go ham with whst they can improve in 14 then take that and thensome into 15, again just go with minor patches then move on. Dont talk all this yang then don't produce, AGAIN, neither.

Good to see. EA's just taking their medicine.

Again and again. Unless someone tells them that it doesn't look good, they don't know it. Basically, they had to have people seeing gameplay videos/playing the game to tell them that it's not good. Same thing with Elite, same thing with 13.

They just don't get it. I hope they will this time.

I've said it before - when you don't know what the problem is, you can't fix it.

Whatever happened to that series?

Sean O' Brien does not not realize that this might do more harm then good. He basically admitted that this game was sub-par all along. People that bought the game are going to feel like lab rats that were tested on. How do they recover from this? Will they ever be able to gain trust?
