from what i can gather is that the gamechangers have had little to no impact on what EA/FM are doing.

the folks that set these rediculous prices seem to have a very high opinion of the game. so much so that it will cost me £99.99 to purchase 1019 gold. they seem to think that the price of 1 car is worth twice the price of an xbox or ps4 game, or 1 game and 2 years worth of xbox live subscription. free updates and no extra cost beyond that £25 per year.

the GC have also said that licencing etc costs. ITS DOESNT COST THIS MUCH. if it does then what are EA/FM doing different that the designers for GT, Forza etc are.

i cant believe how raged i am over this. its only a game at the end of the day but it doesnt half piss me off. well said, couldn't agree more. With all due respect to great guys like SpeedJ & ME7, the rest are simply EA's PR firewall. Our frustration & disappointment is not a result of ignorance about the business models (as EA and some GCs arrogantly assume). Rather, it is based on knowledge of the game's wider potential (to cater to end users as well as generate consistent revenue)..and how it is being systematically squandered away by the zealots at EA.
