Its hard to really know for sure what developers mean when the say things like "brand new engine" or "built from the ground up". 2k said that 2k14 for next gen was a new engine and completely different game from current gen. And while the games are definitely two different titles the next gen game is still very familar and the "new engine" feels similar to the old one just modified and optimized a bit. Same thing for all of EAs next gen titles. They all used the "brand new ignite engine" and while the games are improvements over the current gen versions I wouldn't say that the engine feels brand new, more like an update to the old engine.

And there lies the question. If the "new engine" is an updated and modified version of the "old engine" does that make it brand new? Or should the engine be advertised as something like "old engine 2.0" (similar to unreal engine or cryteck engines)

I don't think anyone has forgot that Rome wasn't built in a day and that excuse would pass if this was Live first attempt. I think they have a solid foundation pending they listen to the community and implement the proper fixes. The only reason they are doing this is because it's in such a bad state they have no choice. If live ever gets back to being the best title then they will go the way of 2k and madden and go back to catering to the majority and back to subpar products and just making money. Live does some things well but it was the same in live 10, there is no excuse for the game to be in state it's in and they have plenty of time to make a decent game. I just don't understand EA gameplan

Can I get a big fat "I told you so?"

Lol it should have taken someone about 5 mins of playing any of the EA Sports release titles to realize that nothing about any engine was "New". Same **** in a new shiny package.

Can I get a reference to that claim? I also feel like they've said that but I can never find any evidence of it

Only lied about constant roster updated by the hour. Honestly, from this article I took it as basically staying, this year was a rebuilding year, laying foundation for what is to come. If everything acceptable that they did, no, but what is stated in the article isn't to far from the truth.
