FIFA World Cup 2014 Brazil: Why You Should Care

[Ermolli]

Another thing that could be added is that most of the stuff that are on the World Cup games don't translate in future iterations of FIFA like licensed kits, stadiums and head coaches which is frustrating because EA doesn't take advantage of them.

Completely inexcusable that this game is not available on next-gen.

I also find it hard to understand, as Ermoli said, why this stuff can't be carried over to the iteration that is released every year. Why not just include a World Cup mode?

licensees? Venues? Etc. They could have been working on this game since before the consoles were announced or released?

it cost money to make a game, for licensing, etc.... I dont under why its so hard to understand no next gen yet and why its such a big deal? countless of other games have been delayed etc.

the next gen is just getting started, not like they stood much too lose lol they have 200 million current gen users to please and make their money, they know you will all buy the 2018 world cup game lol

But if it's licensed, it is already licensed. They have the ability to use it.

In regards to the development of the game, the engine/audio/art is already there. They could have made it for next gen and scaled it down.

Moving forward next gen is where their bread will be buttered, so not getting the game to PS4/XOne is puzzling.

You could say the same about Madden, Live and FIFA but they still came out next gen.

It is licensed specifically for the World Cup game. It is not licensed in any way, shape, or form for the yearly FIFA game.

That is what I mean. It was being used as that was the excuse as to why the World Cup iteration didn't make it to next gen.

The carrying over to future releases was a separate topic.

Would've bought it if I could play it on PS4, but I can't. Disappointed to say I won't be buying it.
