Custom rosters are broken aswell

What method? You don't have a method, you thought that playing practices had something to do with resetting your depth chart and it clearly doesn't. Which was my point to begin with- save in the depth chart menu and problem solved regardless of if you play practice or not.....

Let's assume your assertion is true. So, I would expect that you believe that 2012 teams play based on the strength of their team. Therefore, one would expect that teams like GB, NO, NE would pass more than they run since they have average running backs, run games, and elite QBs. This is not happening in Madden 13 right now.

These teams are running the majority of the time on 1st and 2nd down when the score is close and even when you're up by 3 to 7 points against the elite CPU QBs. IMO, this just doesn't make any sense coaching wise.

But as I said before, if I can edit the CPU playbook with the 2nd controller in CCM offline, I can address that on my own.

P.S. In NCAA you can edit the coaches pass/run ratios to make these adjustments. It gives you more long-term life in the game because you can adjust a CPU team as the CPU adjusts its offfense's strength over the course of time

I'm not getting prompted to download the patch at all on my XBox. I've tried shutting it off and powering back up, opening the tray and closing it but can't seem to find a way to get the patch downloaded. Is anybody having the same issues or does somebody know how I can find this patch?...would like to get it ASAP to start playing Madden again...thanks

If it's truly fixed, then I can change it in my CC and it would be worth it to lose injuries but gain accelerated clock. Any help here would be much appreciated.

Anyone? Anyone? Someone help a brutha out please.

Hi guys this thread has gotten a lot longer than i can sift through, i got to about page 26. I am hinging purchasing the game on this patch. Has the gameplay bugs been cleaned up enough to enjoy this game long term?

I would wait to see if they patch this patch. If not, I'd say take a pass on this one.

Please, goodness no... the game is finally playing decently. They really cleaned it up with this last patch. I know there are some roster edit issues and what not, but for them to take a chance at ruining what they have built here, I say no way...

One final note: EA stated in the beginning that CCM was ready for the ability to edit rosters within it! We pushed until we got it. We can't blame EA for going against their better judgement to appease the community.

Another patch could put the game into a worse state.

Be careful what you ask for with computers and programming. It only takes one incorrect 1 or 0 to screw things to hell.
