Madden NFL 13 CCM Will Not Allow You to Play Other Games on the Schedule, Only Yours

Your first valid point. There is always a reason why someone regresses. Happens all the time in the NFL. Injury? System? Team Player Turnover? Age? Wear and Tear on body?

So how do you create it then?

It´s incredible after all this pages people still minimize situations like yours and of your family, Jarodd. A shame!

A family playing since the 90´s now has NO OPTION to play the game they love together. But that´s ok if my "experience" is guaranteed.

I canceled my pre-order but can still give it a try in the future, because I love the elements of Head Coach promised in the game. I just want to see if it will works properly, because without a minimal control, the game could become a mess.

But you and your family? You´re not important...

Someone actually gets it...

As Cam Weber stated at the e3 presentation...there will no longer be any predetermined outcomes. This not only applies to tackling and hits, but also to CCM. If you can control another team or play another game on the schedule, then the user does in fact have the ability to predetermine the outcome of the game.

What next...do you all want a $1M video game contest in which the user can alter the cpu opponent's roster.....

Are you really serious? Are you telling me that Cam Weber quote regarding predetermined outcomes has anything to do with CCM?

Predetermined outcomes was towards the gameplay. Talk about a reach...

There were a couple threads last year on how to make Progression more realistic, along with scouting and viewing player attributes. Go ahead an look at them. We went into some pretty good detail. Franchise should have been expanded to include real world variables instead of contracted into XP points.

Ideas are very different than the implementation of ideas through programming. Was that factor ever discussed? Programming an idea is vastly different than simply coming up with one. As is the implementation of that programming into a broader code base. Just saying. People here tend to oversimplify things, making a game is anything but easy.

I almost never post on these sites but this is enough to get me involved. I agree with everyone that is upset by the lack of choosing whichever game you wish to choose in CC mode. And I don’t get people who can’t understand their reasoning. What if I don’t want to control one team each and every week? I don’t necessarily want to be a GM in the game, I just want the NFL season experience. Playing my game and simulating the rest of the week is boring to me it’s essentially just meaningless simulated numbers the CPU gave you those games are not really being played. The CPU is the one in control, not you. If I choose to simulate then let it be my choice, if I choose to play the game and actually experience that game, let it be my choice.

Franchise mode allows me to play games the same way I watch games on TV. I don’t get what’s so hard to understand about that. I have a favorite team yes, but that doesn’t mean I don’t watch other games too. I don’t know anybody that strictly watches their teams games and nobody else’s. I want to play Madden as more of a spector of the sport I enjoy than the GM of a specific team.

If you want to control one team and you’re happy with it, then fine don’t be critical of us who don’t enjoy playing that way just because you don’t care and it doesn’t bother you. Because the way EA is going there may come a time when it’s your turn, and something you enjoy will be taken out of the game.
