I don't think they had much left to offer. Even this apology is an attempt at damage limitation. Their PR machine is clearly worried about the 505 brand rather than genuine remorse and regret.
Every attempt was made to fleece the public and 'Steamgate' was their last ditch attempt at that. As...
That's not the point I was trying to make. My point is that they did not set out to deliver the game that will hit the market on Friday. Their master plan was not to deliver a digital game with more primitive controls than Stick Cricket.
As for being fooled, I'm only a fool if I go and buy it...
I don't think they set out 3 years ago to release a half-baked game on Steam but that is where they are. I presume incompetence and bad management has got them there.
We have a responsibility to move the market forward which means we have to be discerning customers. That means we don't buy a...
How is it fooling people if the end result is a fringe game on Steam that will not cover their development cost over the last 2-3 years??
What do they gain? Substantial losses? Irreparable reputation damage?
I don't understand that logic.
I'll give you that. However, this game had everything just a few weeks ago and everything was simply being 'turned on' prior to release. Now, forget about 'all that and more' it's a case of 'something, anything!'
God knows what happened when they flicked the switch to turn the features on....
This must be the first game in history that has regressed as it approaches release. Instead of adding features approaching release they are stripping it down. By Friday, this game will be a LEGO set.
Just curious, do we control tapping the bat at the crease during the bowler run-up? Or is this random?
Someone mentioned there is a video where the bat is being tapped into the wicket during the bowler run-up but I've only seen the bat in the air.
Why do people think Ross is like the monorail salesman from The Simpsons? Do people really think he will sell a broken game and ride off into the sunset on his kangaroo (or whatever the latest mode of transport is in Australia) shouting "so long suckers!" ??
This is not about being a "fanboy" ...
Every year PES fans produce option files which use the PES editing tool to recreate teams, players, names, badges, kits and stadia to true likeness, and they share this content with 1000s of fans all over the world. In fact some fans even charge for their work. This has been going on for 15 odd...
I thought this was used quite effectively in Fight Night; just when you are about to get knocked down all you can hear is your heartbeat and heavy breathing. I thought that was very effective in building pressure and adding to the tension.
