I have a question for those people that were turned off by all of the changes made in Madden 13. If the series continues in the same direction and pretty much ignores our plea for real franchise, draft class, edit, you name it... are you done with Madden?
I, for the first time ever, have abandoned the current version of the game for a past version. The realism is just not there at all in M13, and if there aren't drastic changes, I'm just gonna continue to update the rosters on M12 and not be buying any more.

I think I'm done regardless. It's all about online and HUT now, neither of which I have no desire to play.

There needs to be another option. I'm done regardless but it's not the old features I care about. I wasn't turned off by all the changes, I was turned off because so many of the changes made the game for the worse.

I miss franchise... I went back to madden 12.

Wait, what?? There's no more franchise in Madden? Where have I been? Can you not edit rosters and play with them anymore? Man, I'm freaked out right now, bc I REALLY wanted to give Madden another shot this year.

Losing those features was the final push that sent me over the cliff. But I was already teetering heavily before.

The screwed up OL/DL had been wearing me down over the years.....And Im going to need to see something Elite in that area before I will consider it again. Thats like the bare minimum for me...it has to have at least that.

I know I'm in the minority, but I think Madden took a turn for the better this year. CCM has the potential to be way better than franchise mode ever was.

Imported draft classes were always a joke so I never used that feature, couldn't care less if it returned. Progression needs to be fixed though, I don't like how it was done this year.

All in alp, the potential is there... Just giving it time to see if they reach it.

Right now I'd say I'm more inclined to just play '12 and keep updating because while I enjoyed HC09 there were way too many problems with '13 that kept me from buying.I don't believe this years version will be cleaned up enough to warrant a purchase either.I don't feel like waiting around for a patch to fix issues only to be disappointed when the most important* problems never get addressed.
