He’s not saying anything at all, can’t you guys see it?

It’s 100% slick marketing-salesman-spreadsheet talk and 0% real content.

@VOLBANKER_PCYou’re bang on there, it was sound bites dressed up as an answer but nothing definitive. The guy should be in politics.

Live service seems to be a promise to do as little as possible, and some of the money collected might get directed back to finish the actual game we pay up front for. No more preorders for me, that’s for sure.

    Nor me either, I would imagine Pre Order Sales numbers will be well down going forward,

    This is important. If they do not get enough pre orders they might think twice before rushing the next game out of the gate

    It seems that this entire team is completely tone death when it comes to their potential customer base. No wonder the player numbers are dwindling. We are almost back to pre Season 1 levels, which should be embarrassing for the team, but they could care less.

    I’ll bet the hands-on people in DICE care and that they are simply victims of poor decisions coming above from executives in EA.
