[QUOTE="jaredmorgs, post: 161612, member: 459"] Yep, this is the issue. This type of problem is also referred to commonly (at least in the industry I work in) as "Fixing the aircraft while flying". The only way they could address these issues is stop at Season 3 for TPA Gen 1. Then take an arbitrary amount of time off from releasing to retool, rework the TPA emulation engine, and sound mixer (hint, just emulate the BGM and SFX guys). Along with a host of other stuff that I'm probably skimming over because, frankly, I just don't know what is truly involved in producing something like TPA. Then after eating nothing but ramen noodles during this period because they are not getting any revenue, release TPA Gen 2 with all the older packs included with visual upgrades in line with today's technology. And expect to pay for the updated "HD" packages because of the extra effort involved in producing them. And don't even start to talk about cross-buy/license porting/other tight-arse tactics. This. Stuff. Costs. Money. Life isn't a free ride. Devs have got to eat. People playing along at home will start to see why just "makey better less suck" is not as easy as flicking a switch. That being said, I would love to see overall improvements to the game, and with some luck and continued support of the franchise, we may even see them. We just need to be patient. </2cents> [/QUOTE]
