I disagree. They got hammered with no player editing in Madden 06. Every reviewer mentioned it.


Without player editing, people can't make youtube videos showing "johny no ankles" at 150 lbs 5'2 playing on the offensive line as well as a 350 lbs lineman,lol. Well, I guess they can with play it now...

Anyway, I still say it's all about forcing online subscription for updated rosters. Lots of people by used these days and ea can cash in on this.

100%, but I wonder how many people use it very very lightly? Like the 12-year-old who is obsessed with Von Miller because he saw him get a sack the very first time he went to a game, so he's going to make Von a 99? Or the cheesehead who can take everything but AJ Hawk's face for Josh Sitton? (Me me me me me). Or someone who saw Matt Berry from ESPN's fantasy football columns get added in a roster update and wants the fake player gone? Or a Miami fan who just saw their QB of the future proudly wear 13?

It's a million little ways we can't make this game better. Your definition of better may vary, but the means of doing that remains the same.

How in the hell did they have time to add editing outside of CC but could not just have made CC rosters editable? That is what gets me.

Wonder if someone will be able to make a external editor of some sort....

I don't understand the difference between a downloaded roster update and one that was edited in game. They should both work the same.

This does not bother me

Can't you just grab an updated roster off the internet, put it on a usb, and then transfer it to your console of choice?

Wait....There's no offline franchise mode this year? (Not flaming, I've been away from the boards for awhile).
