FN4 Idea (to get all fighters we need in game)

[McAlister]

All they have to do is make a roster, that is ALWAYS updated when you sign online to play.... like Madden, & Basketball games.... that way we will always have all the fighters that are active and need to be in the game...

Problem Solved


Now will they do it?? thats another thing


Seriously.... the game has online play, so why not use that to ya advantage and update fighters . . . think EA u guys can do it

It's a nice concept but I doubt we'll ever get it. EA is not willing to pour the kind of money they would need to do it into making it happen. They basically reserve the majority of their money for their Madden series.

its a little harder to do something like that when dealing with graphics like FNR4....

with madden and basketball, they canapply a generic body type to a character and slap an unrealisitic face on madden or basketball.. but with boxing, a lot of time and detail go into the individual boxers look, stance, fighting style, etc etc... its not something that would be easily updated

Not easy to accomplish, but it could be done. They're just have to put some time and money into making it happen, something I doubt they'd even consider. Basically Madden is their money maker, that's where the majority of their budget goes. And what's left over goes into the other sports games they make, "Fight Night" included.

Or.. then they should try to do like the 2K series does with their sports games...

and have a HUGE list of First, and Last names that they can say...

so when you create a fighter like Haye... (who may not be in the game) atleast the commentator will be able to say Haye, instead of saying sum cheesy nickname like The Punisher

That's a great suggestion also, that coupled with a deeper create a champ mode would make it worth it alone.

I had to create Shane Mosley on round 3, and they didn't even have "Sugar" as a nickname. WTF?

I had to settle for "Sweetness".

id say do a phonetics menu......and you write the name of the fighter you want in phonetics......so the commentator can say that.....

cheaper to pay for phonetic sounds than have the commentator say god knows how much names........

Either way it wouldn't be too hard. Have like maybe 100 common first and last names.

The only guy you couldn't make would be Dwight Muhammad Qawi.
