No harm, no foul.

I dont know Chris or Dustin at all. Dustin's preview was just that...a preview. It doesn't shed any light on whether the mode actually works or regarding the AI. He knows just as much as the Gamechangers and the public know right now....what EA has told them about the mode.

I can honestly say this........I don't care about the edits. I used the stock rosters in Madden 12 and have only used the EA (Donny) rosters up to today. I have made zero edits or changes either.

So this does not affect me one bit. Granted I Purchased Madden 05, 10, 12, so I don't have a long Madden track record. I have never made any roster edits in any of the titles.

NCAA is the only one I download user created rosters.

Now I understand why people are upset and I think Saint makes a really valid point........"If Donny can make edits, why not us". Logically speaking I see zero difference and zero reason it should not be in the game for us.

This issue just does not affect me

Would really be bummed if we cant use edited rosters/ created players in CC...sadly I spend hours creating my own old school legends and putting them on their teams before starting my season. Im really hoping its in there before the release.

Its a confirmed feature that was removed I dont use 32 team control because of shoddy AI (even though most do). I use 32 team control because I like to run my season as close to the real NFL season as possible. I like the ability to play any game in the season that I want. It has nothing to do with whether AI is fixed or not.

Still doesn't making complaining better, because a feature was taken out. How do you know it isn't pushing this franchise forward?? Maybe they needed to take it out to rework the system to better handle the feature to make it better? If you don't like the new features there is always Madden 12, but saying people looking at it in a positive light is wrong because they aren't complaining is just bad.

But if you can prove that they took out the features to just take them out than I will resign, but I highly doubt they took them out to make people angry. They are probably trying to move the game forward which has been severely lacking in the past. So if some features don't make it this year in the process so be it as long as in the long run they are making game better I can deal with a year like this where some features are left out to make sure they are implemented correctly with no glitches.

Because I can bet that if it came out with a glitch there would be non stop complaining, but if they leave it out knowing there are glitches good on them for not pushing a bad feature to appease the masses.

You know what...here's a solid question:

We know that Donny Moore will make the roster edits. Do you think this means we may one day have that "teambuilder" style program opened to us for use...or do they keep it for themselves so Donny keeps his employment?

I guess that was a little bit funny, but it's meant to be serious. Think about it.

I'm not surprised at all. It's obvious and was also mentioned in a interview that they want Madden to be a online game like a COD..

Now they are forcing it upon us instead of listening to the fans.

The game sounds cool with all the stuff added but as far as Im concerned, this game is only playable in a 32 user franchise. (IMO of course)

They created CC with online as priority, if it doesn't make sense for online it's not in. They didn't have time because the missing features that are essential to offline wasnt a priority in the first place.

It only makes sense.

So this makes it a good decision, because it only makes 15% upset at them? A feature here and a feature there and were up to 90%+ who are missing something important to them. This is exactly why EA gets the flack they do.

So I am really interested to know why you think this was a good move, and seam to be defending it? Please explain how removing all editing + more was a good idea for them. Simply because you don't use the Editing players feature?

And this is way beyond shoes and arm bands. Stats, Jersey number, name for rookies, position and more man(not to mention people custom rosters for accurate and different style of play!
