EA Play 2017 - June 10-12, 2017

[CLW]

As of now, the games that stood out to me (most excited for) are:

NBA LIVE 18
Madden NFL 18
Battlefront II
Need for Speed Payback
A Way Out

Could always change as more info comes out, but some good stuff shown today.

I'm almost exactly the opposite.

1. A Way Out - i'm hoping this is a Naughty Dog esque story with coop
2. Need for Speed Payback - probably rental for me
3. Battlefront II - story mode has me intrigued in going from rental to potential buy
4. Madden - all i've seen is they added the FIFA story mode to the same game
5. Live - they are never going to surpass 2K and there just aren't enough potential customers out there for 2 games to really succeed so its going to flop and most likely get cancelled at some point.

The stream is now interviewing cast of Madden NFL 18 Longshot, which is pretty cool. However, there's no set schedule now for what -if any - games are coming up next, which is frustrating.

Yep which is FRUSTRATING to their consumers. Say I'm only interested in Starwars or that A Way Out game - why should I be forced to sit through all this sports stuff i know EA makes sports games.

Vice versa - say i only care about sports why should i have to sit through 1 hour of shooters to learn that nothing has changed in madden other than the fifa story mode.

A schedule or ticker on the side/bottom of what is coming up next would be great. Almost feels like interview now is stalling to kill time; maybe not though.

Yeah I'm really ONLY interested in A Way Out info right now but its on in the background as noise why they talk about story modes in their sports games masking the lack of any improvements to the gameplay.

You let that BUM Rex score? Wow JB I don't think I would have posted that proudly.

How much money does a Youtuber like Francis make?

I know a YouTuber that has over a million subscribers that makes at least $120k a year.

Live has 0% chance they should just give it up

Not with what I played.

Also the general public at EA Play was really impressed with Live too.

Is it going to reach 2K levels? No, but I think it will be able to stand on its own this year.

For me it was:

Battlefront II
NBA LIVE 18
A Way Out (would be higher if co-op wasn't forced)
Madden NFL 18
Need For Speed Payback (need to see more, but had fun playing with what they showed)

Can you say anything about Maddens gameplay and frostbite engine JB that stood out in a different and positive way?

Didn't get a ton of time with Madden. Only a half or so, nothing negative stood out, and nothing seemed drastically different, so I would say that is a plus on a small sample.
