I agree. I am really perplexed because I love importing players and watching their careers but frankly the BEST aspect of Madden 13 was the draft and I don't want to lose the immersion. I may make two dynasties (one play and one sim) just to get the best of both worlds.
The draft was a lot of fun last year. I think they removed draft report cards last year though. Weren't they in 12? Why not have a guy like Mort hand out draft grades to all teams along with a great and bad pick.
I traded Madden in almost 2 months ago. Future Shop had one of those trade 2 get $60 credit deals and I pulled the trigger then figuring I would be playing a lot of video baseball but I haven't. That's OK though. I was at the point where I had to house rule myself from hot routes just to get a challenge out of the cpu. The sliders were horribly broken and the game way too easy. I really hope the sliders, game difficulty and cpu intelligence got a major boost this year. Unfortunately the game changers for Madden don't care much about sliders and couldn't even say if they added user and cpu special teams sliders.
Insight on the new "engine" that powers the updated franchise mode starting in M13 last year: http://www.easports.com/madden-nfl/n...cted-franchise. It's called "FranTK".
I am getting SO tired of EA naming every little thing they do so they can market it. "FranTK"? My gosh. Do they name their trips to the bathroom too? "DumpTK"?
I missed this little bit of info from mymaddenpad.
I wasn't really sure how this was determined until I read this.Are there any changes planned to hot/cold streaks?
The system is pretty simple…if you don’t meet any goals for the week you remain on the cold streak. If you make 2 of 3 the following week, you are on a hot streak and if you just make 1 you stay neutral.
I cannot wait until E3 to see some gameplay videos.
every one will be disappointed in Madden I'm sure.People will have something to complain about it won't be perfect.
With how poorly football started out on next gen nobody has that high of expectations anymore. I don't think anyone with half a brain will expect a perfect Madden 25. People do expect to see improvement in some critical areas. Whether they can deliver that in the area of cpu AI is my big concern.
Madden looks significantly better than NCAA IMO on the PS3. Been pretty obvious the last few years.

Nothing earth shattering other than more and better things.
This is the new sideline reporter. Danielle Bellini
Well they obviously saved a few bucks picking up someone that nobody has heard of.
I did find this.
That chick is cute. I don't care if they saved a few bucks as the sideline reporter is not very important to me.
That E3 clip did show some nice OL/DL interactions. I still feel all of that should be possible on current gen, especially since 2K4 had good line play on my PS2.
They wont let us record current gen either. More on that later in the show.

That sucks if true although reading impressions is still good. I had read that people would have some ability to record current gen stuff. We'll find out tonight.
