[NC12]

What did I just watch...

This trailer was meant to be a joke right? I don't even know what to say right now.

I'm not defending it. The comments on here act like ea is forcing them to do it.

You'd have to show me those comments because I missed them.

I've seen a bunch comment justifiably upset at the very existence of this mode.

I get the pushback on this mode... but at the same time, I really don't get it. I mean... to me, it's no different than the ultimate team modes. I find them a complete joke in Madden and NHL. So... I just don't play it.

If PGA courses, and golfers are your thing, and you play the actual regular golf portion of the game, and it's good, who cares that this mode exists really?

Nobody says you have to play it. It just looks like a goofy arcadey mode to me, I dont like that it's there, so I get the frustration with it, and Id rather they didnt waste the time with it in development. However, if the rest of the game is still regular golf, with PGA golfers, courses, and equipment. So play that part, enjoy it, still give it a chance, and just ignore this part like some of the other modes in some of the other EA titles.

I know I'll never play this mode, I'm still giving the game a chance through EA Access though, and if the real golf side of it is good, then I'm still in. The sheer existance of this mode, isnt going to make me not buy it if the rest of the real golf portion is still good.

Divotmaker would probably be able to chime in on this better than I could but I'm pretty sure there is a HUGE different between Madden adding MUT and RM adding this mode.

I know for a fact that there are completely separate teams that work on that mode in Madden so it sacrifices no resources to other area's of the game.

I don't think it's a poor assumption to make that this dev team is DRASTICALLY smaller than Madden's so the opportunity cost for adding a mode like this is drastically different and much more of a hindrance than Madden adding MUT.



It miffs me because I actual enjoyed most of the training drills in the past, I think as of now we can assume they are still there but seeing this makes that not a guarantee.


Most concerning though, and why people are so mad about this, is it shows a strange direction for the franchise, and not one that you will get much support on here.

Wasn't their a similar mode like this for tiger 04 or 05 not to this extent, but vaugly remember a mode at night with targets back in the ps2 days. Not sure this needed its own blog post or trailer.

I don't remember one but that doesn't mean there wasn't but I'm not sure why something that may or may not have been in the game on ps2 but was since removed would add any comfort to those concerned with this being added in 2015.
