Re: FIFA 14

ive just read this somewhere else, absolute rubbish..it doesnt matter how powerful your gaming rig is if developers don't want to develop for it its useless

It's only on my system because I needed it to run a freebie copy of Crysis 3. Steam is where it's at.

Anyway, I don't understand the logic of not bringing this latest engine to the pc, considering that the pc is where this engine will have been built.
 
Re: FIFA 14

:LOL:

Well played, EA. Good way to lose a ton of sales on PC.

So that's PES for me this time around.
 
Re: FIFA 14

To be honest i can kind of see where they're coming from, it's a next gen engine being developed with next gen machines in mind. Just like what they said prior to releasing FIFA 11 on the PC, Not enough people in their eyes have a powerful enough rig to run the game let alone buy it, Hence it doesn't really Give the developer incentive to pool resources into porting it if they don't real they can make a respectable profit.

Now i've got a pretty powerful Rig myself that handles pretty much anything thrown at it on ultra and not gonna lie I'm disappointed we won't see FIFA Ignite at least anytime soon on PC, but on the flipside, if FIFA 07 was anything to go by as far as new FIFA engines are concerned, might not be a completely bad thing to wait a couple of years.

The thing is that FIFA 14 will be created on the PC to begin with, and the next-gen consoles use x86 and Direct X 11.1 just as a PC does. What more do devs need to do to convert games between the new platforms and PC's, which use extremely similar architecture to begin with?

It sounds to me like they're just being lazy, will use the existing FIFA 13 engine, maybe throw in some new animation scripts, update the database, and charge full price. Must be a lot easier doing that than already having the game coded on x86/DX11 and converting what's needed.

Consoles make up the lion's share of FIFA sales so it's pure economics from EA. They have no regard for pc users when it comes to their sports franchises.

Like me for them with FIFA 14, just handed sales to PES on a plate and if they launch on steam this year...hopefully enough sales to keep Konami happy.
 
Re: FIFA 14

'meh' that's a shame, deja vue from 2008 but hopefully this time Konami's effort is good enough to atleast keep me occupied for a year without looking over at the FIFA side of things with envy.
 
Re: FIFA 14

I am 99% sure that Sony and Microsoft paid them to develop the new engine exclusively for new consoles to boost the sales (=investing in marketing).
Unfortunately, pc is not represented by one company so there is noone to lobby for pc.
 
Re: FIFA 14

100 % I'm turning to PES 2014 next year on PC hahaha EA have made a very bad tactical decision

Still generic adboards... when we'll have some real adboards?

For what it's worth, grab the Moddingway mod for Fifa 13, it has club specific adboards, loads of new faces, balls and boots and significantly improves the gameplay. :)

As for real adboards out of the box, forget it. EA $port$ have a dire need to promote themselves at every turn, even to the detriment of the game itself.

:FAIL:

Quite so.
 
Re: FIFA 14

No Ignite on PC?

So now I have to hope that FIFA14 is sufficiently improved enough to warrant buying a console I wouldn't have bought, or hope that PES is good this year...
 
Re: FIFA 14

Ignite sounds like previous EA BS.

I hope we're all aware it won't be half as good as they make it out to be?
 
Re: FIFA 14

So i suppose that fifa 14 will be one of the same in ps3/xbox360, but totally different in ps4/xbox one. Am i right?
 
Re: FIFA 14

Well dunno about totally different but it will be the current gen version on 360/PS3/PC and the next gen version on PS4/Xbox1
 
Re: FIFA 14

The release date of the XBOX One is probably in November or just before 2014. So we have to wait till then to play FIFA 14 on next-gen? Bad timing.
 
Re: FIFA 14

I think the release is in October as one of the nextgen games announced release is October too.
