Well I cannot speak on behalf of roster makers since I dont use edited rosters in terms of ratings. I use what the game comes with but equipment is terrible in these rosters and I am willing to overlook roster editing for equipment if they allowed me to control my season.

Not being able to play other games on the schedule is a horrible decision and game breaking to ME

having friends come over and run a league of a few heads is not possible when it has always been.

We play to what the NFL is offering and EA wants us to play fantasy football with fake rookies and current players on other teams in future years.

That to me is a huge slap in the face for their dedicated customers

I feel you on the stuff you won't be able to do this year. They definitely hit some people really hard this year.

Hard Core fans want to be able to play SIM and have the ability to run the league based on the money they spend.

So be happy that EA is aiming for the casual fan.
News flash: all rosters are fantasy.

Another one: just because someone doesn't edit rosters does not make them unsim or not hardcore.

End rant.

wow madden smh that 100 percent turned me off i love editing and i hate always being 1 team its boring to me.....i felt like they were going the right direction if they just kept it and added everything else there adding it would be fine but of course madden is being annoying and taking out things fans wanted which makes no sense and they are down grading themselves by doing it which makes no sense. Smh at madden i am dishearten about this decision because i love football but i guess im just gonna play ncaa 13 for the whole yr.

Give me a break. Hardcore bad word to use then but SIM HEAD is more like it.

I personally feel that playing with fake named rookies and unrealistic rosters in future years is not SIM to ME.

But EA could have avoided this if they allowed a separate mode called season and also CC.

Not just do something for one side of the spectrum

To me its not a breaker. The rest of connected careers sounds great. So if its done well I don't think it will be that big of a deal.
