Ok thats what i figured. My dilemma still sits with wondering how active 14 will still be on 360. I wish 15 on 360 at least got SOME changes that mattered, but i havent found to much to show that it got really any changes.

What a sad situation. When they skipped last year, i was SO excited this year...i dont think ive been this let down for a game in my last 20 years of gaming.

Edit players seems to be the biggest thing missing from this list of things the are adding back into the game via patch. I hope that's on their list, if not it needs to be.

Have they said if these updates are coming out for PS3 or 360 versions as well?

If not, from what I can tell, they tweaked the gameplay of '14 and about nothing else. If these other add-ons aren't coming for the 3rd gen consoles, '15 is completely worthless.

No matter how strongly you feel about the issue, you must be able to accept that someone else can take the opposing view.

That is fair enough....I was not intentionally attempting to taunt or mock. My wife does tell me that my metaphors can be a wee bit harsh. I suppose this is one of those times where text tends to be misinterpreted without physical cues to help one interpret the actual intention.

I appreciate the fact that you were willing to have a discussion about this rather than just get all punitive-like.

You can basically play now, or play a season mode in the guise of a GM mode (which, without the option to draft your own players or play the AHL games isn't a GM mode. It's a season mode). But c'mon, the fact that they're at least listening some is encouraging, and points to the idea that maybe all of this wasn't the Dev team's oversight. It makes it far more plausible that EA pushed for HUT over these options and/or just weren't given the manpower necessary. Maybe in October or November when they roll out the additions and the game sees a $39.99 reduction at Target or something I'll buy it, because it's getting closer to value. There's a game here...its just...empty right now.

Be a GM is not Season mode, reason is we can't control all teams and make authentic trades. Unless this gets patch in I won't purchase.

I meant "Season Mode" as in the old-school idea of season mode: a one-off year in which you played 82 games, not in the idea of full-team-full-season control. Excuse the mishap in language.

I was calling GM mode stripped to the core of what season mode on, say, NHL94 would be akin to.

No EASHL, No Season mode, No player editing, No custom Ai = No Buy

I know my club and a few others I have talked with are staying on NHL14, also getting FIFA15
