Yea, they're quite serious about these embargoes too folks, if you break them you (and your organisation) never get invited back to any of these events! Given Axwell was representing Boards.ie we would be cross too as we have more of these sorts of events later in the year to attend

I'm sure Axwell will have a post with the questions answered ready to roll out as soon as it's lifted

Top job boys. Can't wait for these answers.

Ok so there is an embargo on the information, i presume you can answer simple things.

How many questions did you get to ask?

Was he horribly offended by the line of questioning?

Around 12, but bare in mind it was a 10 minute interview with him and some of the answers involved explanations. Also some of the questions on the thread are already answered in numerous videos that were released already or during a presentation of the new game and its features which I saw during the same day so they didnt need to be asked again in the interview.

Not at all, hes dead sound and very open with regards to answering questions or taking on board some of the points I put forward. This is one forum of many, he sees and hears the same questions multiple times in one week alone during interviews let alone through all the other types of media like facebook, EA forums etc.

For example he was in Paris on Tuesday, London on Wednesday, Warsaw on Thursday and hes in Munich tomorrow. He will no doubt hear a lot of the same questions in each venue and have to go through the same answers and presentations each day.

So you cant tell us his response. Could you at least say if they were generally positive?

I would say based on the questions on the bigger issues yes and overall the game and its new features have a lot of improvements on FIFA 10.

FIFA 11 is definitely a step forward from FIFA 10 as oppose to the new Pro Evo which looks like step backwards. EA take a lot of time taking onboard what people say on the EA forums and are probably better than most companies in that respect and as a result are very aware of all the issues with FIFA 10 at the time they are working on FIFA 11.
