I am done with EA as far as 1st day buys. Never again. I got burned with NCAA 11. The game was great after the first patch and then they patched/tuned it stupid. FNC had exploits, freezes and glitches from day one, just like FNR4. At least the FNC team patched and tuned it to be better. I know the 1pko was removed and body spamming is a current epidemic online, but they are fixing it. However, I feel as soon as they release the next tuner, patch and DLC the dev team for FNC will be gone to the new company just like the Madden team and a few execs.

Saying that, the new company will give EA some comp I think. I have heard EA has put the kabosh/restraints on certain ideas that would have bade the game better for different reasons and of course the devs can't say anything. One example is the guy that left 2k for NBA Live and after one year went back to 2k because of the freedom he lost at EA. What happened? 2k11 is Sports GOTDecade so far and NBA Live/Elite is kaput.

Maybe the new company can give us a sim boxing game without all the issues.

Their empty promises and lack of communication is reason enough to turn your back on EA. Its silly to buy an EA game at launch. You are right NCAA football and FNC were bothe destroyed by the Looney Tuners and subsequent patches. Always wait 6 months before buying an EA product. The developers will have stopped tinkering with it by then and it will be cheaper. No sense in paying to be a Beta tester. A beta tester that they turn their backs on no less.

I think the new company is more on the social gaming side. I don't expect much from it, especially if it's a starter company.

As far as this game goes, and the current situation with the title update, EA really is handling this situation in an odd fashion. The initial claim was that the tuner would be up early last week. That is still in the first post on the topic. Now over a week later and as I write this the tuner is not out. So why not simply make a topic that says, "We are working on it and unfortunately we couldn't get it out last week, but we will have it out asap." Instead, people are left wondering.

I understand though that there are some things that we know not of. Perhaps the mod that told us early next week was then told to keep quiet and not to talk about it until it's out. I also understand that the percentage of people waiting on the tuner are not that many. Most people playing this game probably have no idea it's on its way, so EA may not feel the need to address the situation.

At least say something. "We've hit an unforseen snag.", or "the tuner created a new possible exploit/ramped up 1pko's to 50% of all fights", something. Silence is deafening at times, ask any married man, because during the silence you are thinking "WTHeck is about to happen next?".

Looks like the Developers finally have spoken. No real details of what will be addressed in the tuner or patch. The patch seems like it will be pretty far off. The tuner sounds like it should be out in the upcoming days or weeks.

I wonder if they'll even do sports games? Hopefully someone out there can give EA some boxing competition.

When is the ETA for this patch? You guys kind of got sidetracked and I'm not to keen on searching 6 plus pages for the answer, sorry for my laziness.

this is becoming a joke lol

"early next week" on 04-09-2011

I predict early next year
 
# 56 DaveDQ @ 04/23/11 02:02 PM
It'll be up this week.

I won't be playing too much more of this online until they get this tuner in. It has become a joke really. Every fight I fought in the last 2 days every single guy was making an attempt to jab the body.

We have about 5 guys in our gym so we had some fun last night, but playing randoms in OWC has become so one dimensional. It's almost like these guys have been beaten by the jab spam so they jump on board expecting to do the same.

How do you know it'll be up this week?

Yeah it's flat out ridiculous. I just went through the same thing today. If you're not body spamming then you have no shot to win the rounds really. I had a round where I knocked a guy down twice and still only got a 10-8 round due to the body jab spamming.

Um, not to step on the original point, but two knockdowns IS a 10-7 round.
