No sir. Which is why I've been saying this year will be very telling because we've made it to year 2 of a 3 year plan yet again. Unfortunately that's as far as these ever get with them. A few have ended after a year, but typically it's two years, then scrap everything and a start a new one.

If they do drop news tomorrow, it would be exactly a year from the day they dropped the cover reveal for Live 14. So maybe they are going to stick close to their release dates from last year for info.

They have separate teams working on different aspects, so they have a dedicated gameplay team and a graphics team. That said, my expectations on gameplay are still pretty low this year.

Well the nhl series had a 3 year plan from 07 to 10. That seemed to go well.

I don't recall ea even mentioning a "3 year plan" for live 14 unless someone can provide a link. The last game was 10 and that seemed like year 2 from 09. So if the 3 year plan was mentioned in 09 that's 5 years ago and maybe we can be up to date with the live insults..

I don't think anyone is trying to bash live. I could be wrong but I know I am not. I really really want a good product this year from EA. If the demo is promising I WILL buy the game no doubt. I think the problem is that people want a good game so bad from them that its getting old year after year with the same old stuff.

You mentioned the last game was 10 but you fail to mention the games games they scrapped and the years they took off. Which is why people feel by now a decent 80-85 rated game should be possible.


Also, whether EA specifically mentioned a 3 year plan or not doesn't matter because its implied when they say "they're taking steps in the right direction" or "its not where we want to be yet" etc... I sure as heck hope they don't expect us to take from those statements that they mean 5-10 years cause that would be ridiculous.


To refresh your memory this was after 10

They did mention a 3 year process last year. I don't have the quote in front of me right now, but I remember that being a topic last year

I think most sports games are based on 3 year plans to implement and perfect a feature....they just don't use it as an excuse for a poor product like EA has done
