Got Madden 12 Franchise Mode/Superstar Mode Questions?

[blklightning]

Will the commentary refer to past games of the season, such as a recap of a beating my team took a few weeks back in the first of a two game division series? Also, will they talk about the unfolding playoff picture? I love how they do that in NBA 2K11.

Is there any possibility that the Senior Bowl can be implemented in this game or the near future? This is an NFL evaluation game, coached by NFL coaches, and braodcasted by the NFL network. IMO this is a great way to add depth to the game and a way to improve the imported draft class players attributes from NCAA.

On another subject, will you guys finally give the players their team helmets in the Pro Bowl? You used to have this on the old gen but know we just get AFC and NFC helmets. That's not part of the real game so hopefully you've changed that to get the "AUTHENTICITY" in the virtual game!

WRs with 99 speeds and 90+ release every year. Can we get more logical draft classes? A Calvin Johnson-style WR doesn't come around every year. Same with these Patrick Willis-like LBs every year. Shouldnt have 5 Linebackers with 85+ speed every year. DE's with 90 speed is just stupid. It's even worse in online league because people draft speed so much.

^^^ This. It doesn't even matter if the guy has crappy ratings. All anyone cares about is speed and agility.

Another feature that used to be on the old gen was when players got hurt, like an ankle sprain, they'd come back a few weeks later with that ankle spatted. A good way to differenciate ankles that are already spatted is to put the bulky spat on the leg that's injured. They'd also come back with a knee brace if they sprained their knee. This was an excellent feature that truly expressed the games realism and again, this was the old gen! You currently have arm braces in the editing mode that are usually worn by players in the real game that have an injury of some sort. You didn't have knee or ankle braces in last years game and that's surprising cause NCAA has this. With the emphasis on flack jackets this year, I hope you guys pay attention to the bulge under some players socks and pants. Knee braces are extremely prevalent in the gear that players wear. Mark Sanchez wears one and a lot of offensive lineman wear them.... So to get back to my point, will this feature be added back to the game?

Is CPU clock management fixed? Will the CPU still snap the ball within seconds of getting to the line, or will they take their time and read the defense and make proper adjustments?

Will the CPU try to run out the clock when holding a late game lead, or will they throw three straight times just before the two minute warning allowing me to get the ball back still?

i'd like to second this fine set of questions, and also ask...

will there be a way to spectate other online franchise games or communicate with other franchise members VIA some kind of lobby chat?

[goodygoody]

will simulated games have more realistic stats?

Since they took out the Extra Point show in franchise, what is these guys offering us in madden12. Why is it so hard to make a decent show that can surpass NFL2k5 and had 7 years on the next-gen console? Pathetic!!!
