You realize its coming to CFM as well. No? I mean really, getting weekly commentary updates is something to complain about? I realize people here complain for the sake of complainng but really?

Look at it this way. This is a brand-spankin new concept. It makes sense to release steady chunks for play now to soak their feet.

I love in my franchise how they mention at the end Team A will be checking out the Vikings' new stadium next week. A simple where they stand and who they have next adds to the immersion.

So happy they switched to guys who can and are willing to do more than Nantz and Simms.

They talked about Amari Cooper playing at Northwestern Miami High School and having Teddy Bridgewater as his QB for a season. That was cool

I'm loving the idea that EA is updating the commentary as they go along - so kudos to the development team for committing to that.

The thing I'm hearing that is a little disappointing is that the commentary is not reactive. I'm in the second year of cfm and they don't ever say rookie's names (even if the name is in the game) and the commentary doesn't update - after scoring a TD they mentioned that the receiver had scored 6 last season and could improve on it. Yeah, he did - that was a year ago. I also rebuilt the stadium and the commentators are talking like the Raiders might move. It needs to be more dynamic.

I really hope they begin having the announcers say the last names of the generated players you (and the other teams) draft in CFM.

Commentary overall seems outstanding, but from what I've watched in videos of CFM, the game becomes less personal and immersive with commentary, and much more generic with "he makes the tackle" and "he drops back to throw" type of commentary, rather than the announcers actually knowing the players within the league by name.

This is real nice loving it. I wish 2k would do the same.

I wouldn't have made the comment myself but someone else did and you basically just bagged on him for having an opinion on whether they should be spending time on lines that could be used for many games in CFM versus lines that only make sense for one week. Just wanted him to know that there wasn't just "one."

Bagged on him? Hopefully you and he find your safe space.

I mean really. People complain EA doesn't innovate, and they do and come out with something that no one else is doing and people still find some reason to complain about it. And the people complaining have zero idea how it affects CFM (BTW, it apparently has no impact on CFM audio development).
