What's the name of your data mining service...you have some amazing statistical theory and awareness that I would like to take advantage of???

The problem is with this...is NBA2K is able to implement all of this and change the storylines in their franchise mode accordingly and have been doin this for the last 3yrs....its hard to accept EAs reasoning when one game implements it soooooo easily without F'n nothing up...

They better go ask their Devs for some advice!

I feel like my reasons are pretty valid and judging by this thread and other online responses, those reasons are not unique to me. Happy Gaming.

I'm a man I'm 40!!!!!

anyways.. i never said i wasn't disappointed about what is missing. I am happy with what has been added. Enough so that I believe this will be the best Madden in a decade. For me it's two steps forward with the gameplay, engine and ccm enhancements.

As for Josh.. meeting him several times and corresponding with him, the last word that comes to mind is arrogant. I think when you have to communicate with as many people as he does, it's difficult to make everyone feel important though and sometimes maybe it comes off that way. I know he has expressed to me that he wants to add things the right way going forward with this CCM mode. Maybe that's driving the delay.

Then why release ccm at all this year? Sorry, I don't buy that for a minute. Obviously ccm is not ready to be released this year

If you just look around online today it seems like that data is messed up it's got that 3-5% error ....I think more people than not Edit and with all the new stuff they put into the game with the shoes and gloves I think even more would have looked into it.

Whatever the new features give us they won't be able to add all the players donny moore leaves out of the game, decrease DT ratings to lessen interior pass rush and OT ratings to add edge rush or any of the multiple reasons I edit rosters to increase realism in my franchise.
If the new features were added to what we had rather than replacing them iwould still be as hyped as I was when I first heard them announced now I'm debating whether to stick with M12

And that's why the EA devs dare to remove editing from the game... because they know it won't affect their bottomline. Most Madden gamers don't care.

Here's another clear look at why most of us are going to hate the game:

We who like editing and accuracy and then some are going to be able to edit said roster, BUT our ONLY shot at playing a season with that roster/those players is to do PLAY NOW games. That means, like I used to have to do with freaking John Elway's Quarterback on Nintendo 8-bit, I will have to create a spreadsheet with each team name and who they play that season. Then I'll have to create a sheet for my post season bracket. Then I'll have to play my Super Bowl making sure I picked the right stadium or hoping that at least that option to play a Super Bowl game is still available.

That's it. That's the only way those of us who enjoy full editing will be able to play the game happily.
