Why is EASports wasting my TIME? madden / Ncaa

This will be short and to the point.
Can someone tell me why the dev teams from Madden12 and Ncaa12 are wasting my time posting plays from either game, which nobody will use, because they just don't WORK?
Let's face it people; the game has not changed drastically from 09' to 11' on either platform other than the slight graphic upgrade and lighting! So how are you feeding me nuggets of "good" infomation? I am not a coach? I am a hardcore game player, that wants to see videos of how the game has evolved, and changed for the better of three years now. Showing me plays and playbooks are a huge waste of my bandwith and my intellect. My main concern is, and probably most of the EASports footballing nation is; Does the Stats = ratings, and produce something tangible on the field? I hope i said that right! lol
or better yet; do the players ratings, and their stats work together to project a playable virtual representation of my favorite player and teams? ie. Hot and cold streaks, matchup mismatches, All-pro players vs subpar players. this is what we want to see! Not this new play in the play book crap! Because if you have played a game online or with a friend, they probably own use 15 to 20 plays max, and those are more experienced players; everybody else is just; sweep right, sweep left, dive right, dive left; and glitch, glitch, glitch you all day long if they can before you rage quit. Hey, everybody will be labbing there new plays when they supposedly get the game and find out like always, that it doesn't work for crap. So i ask anybody that frequents this site; Are you hyped over the playbooks being saturated into OS home pages on a daily turn?
I, for one can do without.

if this seemed like a rant; well it is!
cheers, lmao

btw, Steve N., no offense to you, as i know your just doing your job.

I wouldn't say it's wasting my time really. I agree 100% with you, and it's frustrating not getting any real info yet, but I think you've just lost your patience. Because let's face it... if they didn't post those plays people would be complaining about lack of ANY info. :P
So what I say to you is to sit tight and be patient. April is always the first big announcement.

I wish I could jus forget the game existed until July. It is quite pathetic to be fantasizing about a #$%%^ video game, isn't it?

for us non online glitch fest gamers I am glad they are adding plays. With the labor situation what else can they really expect to show us.

Well, maybe the posts weren't meant specifically for you. I, for one, find that NCAA was miles better than NCAA 10. The upgraded playbooks are a good thing. NCAA has already shown an improvement in the visuals department.

It was more of a waste of time reading your rant...

Madden usually has a commercial on Draft Day.

My issue with all the offensive plays added are they seem to be straight money plays. I always notice the deep routes available off the plays. Lets hope these plays do not produce such effects

# 7 Cardot @ Apr 5

Yes, I agree with you. In fact in one of the threads I posted that I would rather them reduce the size of the playbook if it meant that there were no money plays (or routes) AND all plays at least had a chnace to succeed.

Pretty much all football video games that I have ever played have a slew of plays that are either doomed to fail, or they are too successful. Generally speaking, screens, draws and the college option always seem to be one or the other($$$ or Doomed). I don't think I have ever successfully run a reverse.

I like the whole idea of it, but I wish they'd show some other knowledge, too.

I agree.. Some people are saying that they are just "holding us over until June", but I think they are just feeding us b.s. until July. Which they will then unveil a "big" feature that was in the game back in '00-'06. Complete waste of time and money.
