This game needs to be on PC. Madden does it, NBA 2k does it. This is a giant disappointment for college football fans.

PC is not hard to develop for. It just takes a little more resources. It's not all that different to developing for different consoles. A console is just a weak PC. And no... the "code" is not all that different.
I think the fan base is more confused with the issues they say considering EA makes Madden and Madden is available on PC. Just on that note alone is the anger. People who switched away from console and put big money into gaming pc's do not want to have to turn around and buy a new console just for one game. which means sales go down.
No need on pc also or at least Xbox one

- DANGERGOOSE11 year agoSeasoned Ace@mdizzleman048887 EA is probably betting on enough people buying consoles just for this game. I see a new post in the CFB facebook group I'm in every day with someone claiming he is doing this. Unfortunately I think AAA sports devs largely snub PC because they figure they can badger most people to getting it on console. NBA 2k gives PC the PS4/XB1 version of their game even. But back to CFB, I also suspect the guy above is correct: they saw what the community did with an emulator and a few mods to keep NCAA 14 alive. They're probably afraid of releasing a PC version and then people mod it and don't feel the need to buy next year's version.
while I agree as a PC player, I already knew they'd do this and bought a PS5. Only $300 on Marketplace. Anyway, it aint "just one game" bc GTA VI is going to do the extact same thing this time next year , so, it's for 2 games really.
I was shocked to find out that this game is not going to be releasing on PC. That decision is just frankly indefensible. Cutting out this market of customers, especially bc NCAA 14 revamped (on PC!!!) carried this franchise's reputation for a decade. I am very disappointed that not even a delayed port or something will be coming. You develop this game on PCs anyways ffs. Just does not make sense.
- DANGERGOOSE11 year agoSeasoned Ace@JellyfishJPEG They don't care because they get more profit margin just on console. Even though like you said PC players kept the hype and reputation going for a decade. Same as the way they neglect franchise players in Madden and divert most resources into ultimate team, even though franchise players are what sold that game for years way before there even was an ultimate team.
Don’t you work for EA? Seems strange that EA doesn’t know what they are doing.
