Pass. That deal does nothing for me.

[GatorfanStovy]

It's not a bad deal. COuld get u some good cards if u love MUT...I do its fun even offline only. I tried online and it is still laggy as shit.. Next month I may pre ordere depending. on where I 'm living in August.

[cdj]

The pre-order packs for NCAA Football Ultimate Team were terrible (one 75 OVR player card, IIRC), but the NBA Live pre-order pack was pretty impressive IIRC. I think JB had it and received a high-rated Kobe.

NBA was 7 gold packs I think.

I'm still offline only but a Madden franchise might be fun with the right group and a lot ofhead to head. Not interested in MUT.

That sums me up as well. The biggest problem though is TIME. Being east of Vancouver I'm on Pacific time while most folks around here are central / eastern so getting games in can be a challenge. When we did the FIFA league a few years back it was a blast but most people had to be willing to schedule their games with me later in the night.

[GatorfanStovy]

Ya Madden release date is gonna be a killer wait. I just got done renting M25 for the one I must admit it plays 10 times better with some big improvements. I couldn't even play NCAA UT tonight ( had to return M25) If I could get M25 cheaper then 40 I'd get to hold me over till August. I just hit a pay load of UT coins and got up 30k.


Will The coins transfer to Madden 15 or do we lose them?

I think you can trade them in for this (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?gclid=CInM3czLjL4CFUpp7Aod_j8AGw&Item=N82E16832249099&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-Educational+%2f+Reference-_-N82E16832249099&ef_id=U2M4SQAABMvW1Bgm:20140502061641:s).

Could a mod go in and fix Gatorfanstovy's Twitch link. My OCD thanks you in advance.

[jaymo76]

I am really hoping for Madden 15 that we will have the ability to CONTINUE DYNASTY from madden 25. It was NOT mentioned in any of the teaser stuff but I really hope it's there. I'm really liking how things are going in my current dynasty and want to see how it all works out. However, I don't expect Tiburon is willing (or capable) of doing this. But, the Show is making it a reality so there is always hope. I would love to run two dynasties on 15: my Bucs dynasty from 25 and a brand new one from 15, probably with my Raiders.

[GatorfanStovy]

where is the best place to pre order this?

[SmoothPancakes]

Based on the preorder bonuses, I'd say wherever you want because the bonuses suck.

Here is the deal with this pre-order "bonus" so...... many people will get the "$15" worth of free stuff that the pre-order is hardly worth $15. When a high % of the user base gets the exact same thing the value is basically worthless. As basically everyone will have the exact same "bonus" to start their MUT team with thus it's not really a "bonus" at all its just what everyone gets.

[cdj]

CLW - Plus, IIRC these cards are typically low-rated and non-tradeable/non-auctionable, so unless they are very highly-rated they are worthless (as you basically said). NBA Live is the only EA SPORTS title I know of that has given highly-rated cards for pre-ordering.

stovy - as SP said, as of now (and awaiting info on rumored collector's edition) just pre-order at the most convenient location for you.

[GatorfanStovy]

Well I just pre ordered mine from gamestop today. Getting the UT one. Need all the head start I can get. I really think this year game will be and hell of a time. But only time will tell.

[CLW]

LMAO just checked and Amazon is claiming $40 in MUT pre-order value. Where in the hell are they getting that # - that's like 60 packs or so (if I am remembering correctly)

[I OU a Beatn]

That's for the "Ultimate Edition" + Amazon's bonus.


The Ultimate Edition includes up to $40 of bonus content. Build your dream team with the Pro Pack and Draft Pack! Code available in product packaging.

Still, for an extra $10, it's not too bad for someone who plays Ultimate Team a lot.

Well I played it "a lot" until I got the damn trophies then stopped once I whored out the :plat:

[GatorfanStovy]

I wasn't sure about Ut when it first arrived in Madden. But I got really liking it. It's fantasy football basically. Pick your own team and go. I just never played online because of quilters n terrible lag. Maybe this year I will play online with the new system.

I'm stoked for 15. It's got a lot potienal to be a fun game.

[cdj]

In addition to the $15 of MUT cards, Gamestop preorders will also receive the GameStop Exclusive Futuristic Deluxe Stadium.

[GatorfanStovy]

Oh yea so scored at gamestop... Got mine pre ordered and need to pay 30 bucks when it comes out. Thanks Wellsfargo save as you go money! Gonna be great having the UT packs and other stuff to start my UT team run in 15.. 2 more months!!

[gigemaggs99]

In addition to the $15 of MUT cards, Gamestop preorders will also receive the GameStop Exclusive Futuristic Deluxe Stadium.

Looking at the gamestop website I see the deluxe stadium for PS4 and Xbox1 bonuses, I'm not seeing it on the PS3 version would this mean it's a no go on the PS3 version?

EDIT: I take that back, if you look at the MUT version on the PS3 it doesn't show the stadium as a pre-order bonus, the regular edition does have the stadium bonus....confusing...

Best Buy is so awesome. I hardly ever buy my games from Amazon anymore. I got the Gamer's Unlocked subscription for 2 years for $30, which gives me 20% off all new games.

So for Madden Ultimate Edition, I'm basically paying $55 for the upgraded edition along with a $10 gift card for preordering. Hopefully they keep the program going, beats the living hell out of anything else.

[JBHuskers]

I'm taking all MUT code donations from owners who do not want them :nod:

Still won't be buying the game there though.

Yeah I need to look into that. Amazon has killed their $10 credit thing (for some unknown reason - presumably they think it isn't needed). My problem is the Best Buys near my apartment aren't well run and their stores are largely disorganized dumps so I don't like driving there and giving them my $.

See one of my past issues with them back in the Game Deals thread.

[Rudy]

Nope. I had it pre-ordered at FS for the PS4 at $59 thru the E3 deal in June. I had ordered the PS3 version for only $49 with UC4 and Tomb Raider PS4 (order 3, get $20 off each) but with Tomb Raider gone I just cancelled, traded in 12 old games at EB (trade 7 and get bonus $30 right now) and got $113 I used for Madden.

[jaymo76]

I'm considering buying Madden 15 as a digital download. THE PS Store says you can pre-download on August 24th and then the game unlocks at midnight eastern on August 26th. So I'm guessing being on the west coast my game would unlock at 9pm??? Is anyone else going digital?

[jaymo76]

Decided to go with the digital download. I will play this game more than any other throughout the year so no worrying about the disk. The game pre-installed in less than an hour and now there is a countdown clock on my game. Good to their word, the game will unlock at 9pm PACIFIC on MONDAY evening. Then it's go time!

[skipwondah33]

Thinking of going this method as well Jaymo.

I have my pre-order at Gamestop but the ability to trade in doesn't concern me as I always keep Madden typically up until the new one comes out...with Madden 25 being the exception.

Only concern is to still get the MUT bonus that I gave word to JB I'd give him (I try to do as I say..never know when I may get an extra bonus for the Xbox give away...hint hint lol)

I hear what you are saying. Personally I am glad I went digital simply for the convenience. The pre load for me is HUGE but I also like not having to constantly flip disks in and out. Potentially playing at 9pm pacific tonight is also a huge perk... no waiting until lunch time or later on Tuesday!

[skipwondah33]

Thought I read somewhere that you still get the MUT bonus even if purchased in the Store. However I cannot find it.

Yes there is a mut bonus but I think it comes with the game already (aka no code to input). It says on the Madden 15 ps4 pre order page but I don't remember the specifics.

[jaymo76]

If you pre-loaded PS4 madden you can now play it!!!
