Sales for the Live games have been absolutely abysmal. I don't even think Live 15 broke a quarter of a million. I doubt 16 is doing much better.

How much longer can EA justify making these games?

At this point I can do without another one, if the changes remain minimal and mediocre....

15 should have been what 16 (with our proposed fixes and patches) is/may be.

So progression-wise, things are moving a bit too slow to really wow the fence sitters.

Sales-wise, the company may not allow it to happen.

I would like to see it happen but the team needs to increase in size and actually get more intelligent players on board as consultants.

Yes, there will be. It's in progress as we speak.

Mind blowing.

We have generic faced big name rookies, a heap of big name stars unscanned, numerous bugs, legacy issues that have carried over for years, almost no one seemingly having purchased the game if LUT and Pro-Am numbers are anything to go by (never seen more than 80 players online) and 'minor bug' fixes the most detailed patch notes have provided and there is work being done on the next version?

Listen, I won't speak about things that I cant, but there are things that are ready to go into the game, however there's only certain amounts of data that can be pushed in s certain timeframe. On top of that, you can only do so many updates in a certain timeframe. 16 isn't abandoned, and those things are coming. However we're kind of at an impasse due to these restraints.

I'm sure there will….they seem to be dedicated to put it out despite performance

I wonder what the numbers are this year...

Live '15 seemed to have a bit more momentum out of the gate than '16 has

I have faith in live. Be mindful of the budget this game probably has access to. Pretty sure its lower than most sports games
