View Full Version : Interviewing a number of EA producers, anything you think I should ask?
Hey forum-goers,
I'll be attending Electronic Arts' Spring Into Spring event on February, Wednesday 16, where I'll play a number of upcoming EA games. I'll also have the opportunity to speak to the games' producers. Is there anything you'd like me to ask regarding any of the following titles? Feel free to share some ideas below.
Crysis 2
Darkspore
Dragon Age II
Fight Night Champion
Madden NFL 11 for 3DS
Rango
The Sims Medieval
Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 12
Wildlife: Forest Survival
Shadows Of The Damned

Ask about a Rugby game. Any Rugby game at all.
Guys, questions about the titles above are more relevant/likely to get answered. Usually, when you ask a producer about a title they're not working on, they'll just say, "I don't know" -- whether they actually know anything or not. I will definitely inquire about Deadly Descents and those other games, though.

Will the PS3 get a Crysis 2 demo?
'Why is Fight Night Champion running at 30FPS when other Fight Night releases ran at 60FPS?'
'In other interviews about the Nanosuit powers in Crysis 2 they refer to them as having been "streamlined", do they really mean dumbed down as a consequence of catering to the lowest common denominator ie consoles...?'
'Will the DRM for Crysis 2 be similar to Crysis 1, the limited activitations that is?'

Will the "Get In The Ring" First Person mode make a comeback in "Fight Night Champion"?
And maybe also a hint that this view would be awesome if combined with Move Support.

Owh. :(
How about mentioning that god forsaken Dead Space 2 online activation code. What kind of crap is that?
Though since you asked for questions relevant to those titles, "Will that god forsaken Dead Space 2 online activation code make it's way into other games like Crysis 2?"

Fight Night Champion
What caused the team to take the franchise to a mature tag in this installment?
Dragon Age 2
Will any of your decisions from the Dragon Age 1 have any effect on the story in Dragon Age 2. (I.E. Mass Effect 2 saves)
Will DA2 be longer than DA1?
Will the game be more difficult, less difficult, or about the same as the first?

Ask a lot of questions about the Cry Engine 3. Their upcoming competition (Id 5 tech, Unreal Engine 4, etc) and their thoughts on how their engine is going to dominate gaming/movies. Crytek has a lot up their sleeves for the CryEngine 3 and tons of licenses going out.
If you are around anyone that works on Madden, ask about their thoughts on Green Bay winning the Super Bowl, and how that will affect their status in the upcoming Madden 2012 release! Hahaha. (p.s. I'm a huge Green Bay fan! Totally stoked my team won this year!)
Ask if the future of Command and Conquer is dead? The FPS Tiberium got canceled, and I'm pretty sure the recent Command and Conquer 4 Twilight or whatever... :P Didn't sell very well. Point is, I have a feeling the series might die soon. See if you can get any info on that.
Could you perhaps ask why EA have been trying to persuade people to buy the PS3 version of their games? (Free MoH: Frontlines, Dead Space: Extraction) Is Sony paying them or is it compensation for so called 'inferior' versions?
Also, could you ask if Dragon Age II will have a new game+ mode. It sucked that DA:O didn't have that.

you should ask them a question on Madden 2012. If the NFL have a lock out no new CBA will it affect MAdden 12.

Nothing wrong with an activation code. As long as you bought it legally and first hand all you have to do is sacrifice 30 seconds of your life to type in the code.
Way better than non-activated online modes like those of CoD that are flooded with cheaters, hackers and other peasants by now.
Can't we ask anything about Battlefield 3 ?
If so, i need to know how many online players for PS3, and will they fix the stats lose problem that continuously happens in BC2. And if there will be open beta same as BC2.

This may be a bit unrelated but it would be interesting if Theme park World was remade.... I think it'll be great for PSN, XBLA and PC
