    My question is can you have multiple Careers. I didnt see a load file, only a resume. I dont want to have to retire a player to play a different player/coach. I like running multiple players at the same time.


    yeah, but i would still expect a more self absorbed/personal experience from a super star mode than a franchise..they may well be connected..but if i get great or HOF worthy, does the game tell me about it? does it stop and take note of my accomplishments ../ are there specific animations for a single player career as opposed to a GM,coach or other mode ?

    Ok. Got some clarification.

    You can play CC offline, however you will lose some of the web/Twitter functionality by doing so. That makes sense.

    80% of PS3s + Vitas are online. That blows away the "majority" theory. I still agree with you that it's a higher number than people think, but it's certainly not the majority.

    Many EA games put "Resume" as the most prominent option, and hide the "Load" in another menu. I did see "Create a New Character" on the option screens for RG3's "retirement", so that implies that you can create a new character without retiring from the game. Also, FIFA has a very similar Franchise mode, and I'm quite sure it allows multiple careers.

    No. Not from what I understand. It's their version of the Dynasty website, and the ability to get Tweets of news items from your CC on your mobile device. At least from what I understand.

    Read the blog and it will make more sense, I think.

    I think he meant the Tweets. Which, most likely, are "dynamic" in terms of they react to your current world/universe, but are picking from either a list of pre-existing "Tweets" or combining different ones in a logical way. So, pre-determined yet dynamic.

    Well, from what I understand, there will be in-game Tweets (on your console) from Skip Bayless, Rich Eisen etc. From my understanding, the real Tweets (on your mobile device) will keep you up to date on news from your CC (trades etc.), they won't be the fake opinion stuff you'll see on the console.

    Wow! This sounds pretty impressive. I really didn't see this coming. I will need to see some videos before I commit to buying but let's just say that Madden 13 has moved closer to the "yes" category.

    Wait so I just heard that you can no longer import NCAA draft classes? Has that been confirmed? If so that is disappointing to hear.

    Not sure if anyone has played FIFA 12, but if so & Madden 13 is as smooth as that , we're gonna have a good game on our hands. Mind you, I love NCAA & College Football more than the NFL (it's close), but I've been playing Madden more over the last few years. I'm excited to get my hands on it.

    With Scheme/Team-Based OVRs does it change the way how players play on different teams?


    Basically will a WR from OAK play the same for a team like Pats who prefer possession WRs. I am guessing the ratings will stay the same if they switch teams just the OVRs will change.

    So you can set up a league and have every play as one position. That's cool.

    Way Too Early Prediction: This will be coming to NCAA at some point, soon. It's in NHL and Madden this year. I imagine if it's not in FIFA already (I'm not aware enough about FIFA to know), it's coming soon, because the offline Dynasty mode in FIFA is very similar to the setup for Connected Careers.

    I didn't word that very clearly after I reread it. You can set up a league and have everyone play the same position, like all QBs. It isn't like the 6v6 stuff with NHL.

    I do think it will be cool if they can add some sort of OTP play to connected careers.
