And with them combining pretty much all the modes outside of Play Now and standard online gameplay into the one massive mode that is CCM, they may as well have not bothered keeping playbooks and player editing in the game, since right there goes 90% of the game that could have even possibly used it.Quote:

OS... not very good at all. The dominos keep falling.
With the uproar over the strategy pad they patched in the older controls. Maybe they will patch in some of this stuff too. Who knows?
Don't expect anything with custom playbooks to be patched. As for player editing, it's possible but I'd bet against it, especially in the first patch.
I don't think custom playbooks is something that could just be "patched" in. Maybe it is but to me, that woulda like something that has to be in the game proper in order to work correctly.
creating your own playbooks is a true gameplan type feature. Its not like they would have no clue people would be disappointed about it not being in.
they shouldnt be surprised that people expect stuff to be added and stay and not be interchanged and toyed with.
Connected Careers FAQs
http://mymaddenpad.com/madden-nfl-13...-careers-faqs/
LOL no fantasy draft is a big downer as well
Quote:
Can I control all 32 teams in a Connected Career?
No, you can only control one team per console. This means you can’t have friends over at your house and play together in the same league.
both online and offline ?
all these so called additions did nothing but handcuff your enjoyment it appears
And CCM was supposedly the biggest, greatest thing since sliced bread. :D :fp:
I remember having a lot of fun just running a sim dynasty with my brother in Madden on the PS1. I haven't done this in a long time but it was a lot of fun.
The idea sounded so good but losing features in the process just ruins everything.Quote:

I only play on sim online leagues so I won't touch editing rosters, CC (not even sure what that mode is) or the franchise portion or superstar mode, etc.
Connected Careers is the new Franchise Mode (online, offline, whatever) combined with the Superstar mode. If you play in a league (ie non-Franchise style) then you won't have to mess with it but if you play in an Online Franchise, then Connected Careers is now your new mode.
Oh could care less about that portion too then lol. I am in a OF at the same site but been looking to drop that one anyway because I don't like franchise engine.Quote:

Nah... if not for it being a no-no in years past, I might have, but this year is obviously the one year that I look forward to checking it out. Not sure how long I'll stick with it but if the Connected Careers is interesting then I'll probably at least participate in one.Quote:

THE LESSON HERE SEEMS TO BE THAT HARDCORE GAMERS ARE TIRED OF FEATURES BEING REMOVED!!! If I were a betting man I would say that EA is working on an edit patch as we speak (and they can do this becuase height and weight were patched into NCAA last year). The CCM mode doesn't need any more bad press.
I agree Jaymo. Removing features is lousy even if those features don't affect me much at all.
I agree that removing features is bad, and I'm certainly not happy about it. However, 800+ in some thread is not going to force EA's hand. This game sells millions. 800 posts by a couple hundred guys is nothing.

The real Hardcore Madden gamers don't/shouldn't really care about editing rosters and things like that. They care about Offensive Line/Defensive interactions, catch animations, ball trajectories, passing pockets, offensive and defensive awareness, physics, etc...things that directly deal with gameplay.Quote:

Can someone tell me why they play other games outside of your own team's game in-season? (Serious question, no sarcasm)
Boredom. The experience. Just because.Quote:

EA is robbing a ton of people of that experience.

I want all aspects to be entertaining, the creative end is just as valid.Quote:

I find it very upsetting that because this mode needs to have online/offline 100% equal that I have to lose features that are not online compatible. It feels like a slap in the face for a person who has been very loyal to a very subpar Madden series for this PS3 generation.Quote:

If those two teams were to meet in the season that is a game I would either play or possibly watch as cpu versus cpu. The problem I have with removing the feature is that there is no reason for it. Why would a simple feature like this be removed? I find just running with one team to be far too isolating. FIFA, NHL, NCAA Basketball all did/do this and it impacts my enjoyment level of the game.Quote:

The more I think about it, the more disappointed I get.
Apparently it has also been confirmed that create a team for CCM is also out. I don't use the feature but I suspect some do. This is another item added to the list of removed features. I'm not sure if you can still move a team or not but I would guess the answer is "no" based on the fact that you cannot change/edit other features.
Sounds like two years wasn't quite long enough to work on this feature. They should have worked on it for an extra third year.
Or made it the #1 feature of the 1st Madden on the next generation of consoles.Quote:

For another update, Josh Looman tweeted that if you play as a PLAYER you will NEVER get injured for as long as you are a player. Injuries have been removed from a my player role to ensure that you won't miss any games...
:smh: I'm sorry, I may be the only one here who says this, but I like having injuries possible. It makes it realistic.
