Did you just state that the game was improved from a screen shot when one was taken from a trailer and the other from who knows, if you want to claim graphically fine but how are we to know this is how he will actually look when we play the game there is no other players around to determine this could just be a marketing photo.

I don't think any of these are trailer shots...

Lol "wait and see"

Isn't that what we've been doing for the last few years? Taking a "wait and see" approach? What good has done them?

And then every year, the same thing is getting repeated by the same people about this game and then we eventually end up to threads like this popping up every year. Because if the game was doing what it was supposed to and what EA said they would do, this thread wouldn't even be here.

[WTF]

I hated the game at release last year PPM. So if you're referring to me saying the same thing every year, you can drop that. It wasn't til after the patch that it was playable.

They made several strides last year. They followed up on their word by sending out several big updates to the game. Was it worth the $60 last year? Depends on what you're looking for.

The team that is in place right now, at this moment, moving forward has a chemistry from working together on prior titles. That can't be understated.

Regardless, some guys have their minds made up. They'll release a demo, and information is getting ready to start dropping. If you look at it, and it's not for you, then pass. Nobody is forcing you to preorder. Take a wait and see approach.

O'brien said on twitter this morning that they're working on the ps4 version of the demo right now. EA Access will be there for x1 guys. Play it. Make your own judgment based on the game, not on what marketing has or hasn't provided.

For those that use twitter, go check out @seanobs . He's answered several tweets this morning,.

I don't understand how EA's marketing works. Knowing last years failures they continue to be 'soft' and going behind 2k moves. No trailers, no gameplays....

[WTF]

The trailer is coming this week. That was posted by OB in one of his twitter conversations I believe.

I'm referring to anyone who thinks that comment applies to.

And yes, they followed up on their word to release updates AFTER they were catching flak from people for not doing what THEY had promised/told us. And I see they learned their lesson from that mistake because they're not doing it this year, which is probably a good thing.

As for if I think the game was $60? I don't think any game that limits or basically removes user customization is worth $60 and you'll be hard pressed to find anyone that disagrees with that sentiment.

Don't care about what they say they're going to do at this point. I don't even care about getting any new information or any new stills from them because that's never been an issue. They've done enough talking over the years that it just goes in one ear and out the other.

Just release a demo/game and we'll go from there.

[WTF]

Truth be told man, I think that could be the best thing for Live right now.
