with the patch update for ea sports mma, i was thinking to myself, is the update really good or does it ruin a game completey like it did in ea mma. now i do admit that some updates are good, for example the ufc 2010 updates on the stats are really nice. jon jones who nobody used is now one of the best fighters in the game as he should be fighting for the belt in under a week. but a update like the one in ea where it completey changed the gameplay, the devs of the game said they wanted to control spamming. now i know where they got this from, the fans, and yes i believe the biggest part of the game is the fans, but when it comes to a sports game and you open up forums to let the fans help you with the game you are going to get allot of people who tend not to be good at the game and lose by the spamming. now i do lose to spamming but there are ways to get around it. i love the updates for games like assassins creed brotherhood where you got to play on new maps and new game modes and in the latest update you got a new assassin to play as but...you had to pay for that assassin. and there is another con to the updates some updates you can buy like a new fighter, maps, outfits or levels. the biggest problem with this is, say you take a arcade fighting game like mvc3 and update with new fighters, not every player is gonna be able to buy these fighters so it makes the game unbalanced and ive seen the gameplay with jill valentine and she is one of the top fighters in that game now so they are making their own games unbalanced with the buyable updates. what do you the gamers think about updates? are they bad for games? do you think they all should be free?
First, before you make a wall of text you have to make paragraphs to make it readable. There's also a difference in the updates of yours. The UFC update is a patch, which are always good to fix bugs and whatnot. Assassins Creed updates are Add-ons. And MVC3 must be balanced. The characters you can purchase shouldn't be stronger, they don't sell them so you can win more matches but to have more characters. Updates are always good.
