Madden NFL 13 Title Update #2 Arrives Tomorrow, Player Editing Still Being Explored

I can't believe the amount of people who's main concern is editing. There's a severely broken All-Madden CCM CPU and all people care about is whether they have 2 guys with the same number on their team.

SERIOUSLY!!?!

I don't play on All-Madden. I don't enjoy playing to find money plays that work against it. I don't enjoy an unrealistic game. *shrugs*

Don't you work with overlays? You don't put the entire Madden game in memory do you? Don't you load certain things only when they are used? If someone starts a play now game, CCM isn't loaded into memory is it? I'm not writing the Madden Code, and maybe their are reasons, but that doesn't make sense to me.

I dont think its exclusive to All Madden. I see the same problems on default pro and all pro also.

And I hated the e-bay style FA system. I'm looking forward to playing this new franchise mode but I can't start it until the cpu play calling tendencies are fixed. Seeing the cpu just pound the ball on 1st and 2nd down, being overly predictable and not playing like the real teams do just kills the experience for me. EA really needs to focus a LOT more on testing human vs cpu games instead of inviting game changers in to play each other all day long. EA also needs to invite at least one person in to do nothing but test the sliders - offline, online, Play Now, CCM and make sure they work and are effective.

I completely agree, but just to be clear, co-op is human teammates (2-4) playing on the same side vs the CPU.

NBA Live is a sub par below average game.It has been and that is why it will be released for a lower price.

NBA Live was a game that did well and held its own mainly on the backs of casual NBA fans. When they pushed back the game it never came out, and it hadn't come back until this cheap download game will. I'm pointing out that from a PR and business standpoint, not releasing a game until it is perfect is an impossibility. Even GT5 (That was pushed back 4 times and was immune to the need to have now requirement of normal sports games) had major flaws on opening day. Patched completely imo after the second major patch, but improved with patches after that.

So everybody who plays All-Madden only do so because they want to find 'money plays'? You would rather ballet dance around the field with the correct numbers and players positions slightly adjusted?

Some people are easily please. For what it's worth, it applies to all levels.
