India ain't the primary market for this game, you get it?

The primary reason for non-keyboard only play is so we don't have to "dumb the game down" as this would effect the vast majority of users that have controllers.

There is a separate thread for this discussion - an amazingly long one....

I ask this with some trepidation... but how many legitimate copies of FIFA do you think were sold in India last iteration?

If you get in the closest 10,000 then I will be extremely surprised.

Well said.

It just makes me chuckle when "Naive" posters try to threaten developers by "....I won't buy ...... without feature xxxxx" , ".....Too bad.... Big Ant / ED will loose many customers...."

Such a hollow threat. Almost comical.

Ok. So no one wants to guess how many FIFA copies were ordered in for India?

All of it, all together - the stock ordered for day one and for the first month - you won't get within 100,000 units.
