Me. Simply can't see any reason having to fork out full price for a game where they ruined my favorite mode...or more accurately ruined the way I like to play my favorite mode.

Requested a refund and pre-order cancellation on my psn account. Really hoping that can be actioned as I would definitely prefer to continue with 17. Really doubt the franchise news will change my opinion.

All depends on Franchise. Gameplay looks to have some slight improvements, although nothing to blow me away. If Franchise is essentially the same thing but you can sim to different 'phases' ill just play 17 for another year.

Honest question, what are you guys mad about? The changes to RTTS?

While I’m more a franchise and DD guy, and yesterday’s announcement made me sceptical, I still have the feeling I can’t have a definitive opinion before I try it. It sure will be different, but change is not necessarily bad.

I think for me, it's more so my carryover players and not necessarily new players. Carryover players will slowly be nerfed to fit into a specific archetype. I would rather have the option of not doing that to my carryover players and just create a new one in '18 if I want to experience the archetypes. This reminds me of what happened to RttS in '13 when we were forced to play without any commentary and there was zero options to turn it on. I would rather have the option to play RttS how I want to and not be forced to play it a certain way. That seems counterintuitive to me.

Re: Who will play 17 with updated rosters?

RTTS's changes are fabulous... the 2 problems are that they exclude a certain type of player from being made, one that while not particularly realistic is still a fun option that many people would like to keep, and that these changes hurt those who have kept a carryover RTTS players for years only to now find that player about to be nerfed down, cancelling out all the work that many people have put into their players.

While The Show does so many great things realistically, the removal of the maxed out 99 overall rated player for RTTS is an odd choice when you consider how many unrealistic things are in The Show that are meant to be more about fun than about realism: Retro mode, DD, fantasy teams, card collecting, 3 inning games, player lock, quick counts, fast play, quick sim, playing as legends in itself, etc.

It's still a video game and there needs to be a balance between realism and fun and the RTTS changes are gonna leave some people out in the cold in this aspect.
