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

End rant.

News Flash: I never said I even played with edited rosters. My only issue with edited rosters is that we cannot edit numbers or equipment. I never touch ratings

But to not allow us to control the season is a huge turn off. Something every sports game has and Madden has always had yet they took it away

I get that, but just because you play that way doesn't mean everyone else is wrong or a casual football gamer because they don't.

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
This seems to get overlooked for some reason by some of the guys(New Gamers) talking about they only play with one team in there franchise and it doesn't bother them that this feature got removed.. They assume that everyone is only talking about controlling all 32 teams. They don't realize that alot of gamers play there offline franchise with family or friends and taking away Multi-Team control was a huge blow to some of us because we can't do that anymore..

Very disappointed. I will likely not buy the game because of this. I like to play with a fictional roster, somewhat created by myself. I will not be able to do this.

Good luck to EA. I have continually been disappointed by their decisions to make "closed"....."limited" games....if they make them at all (NBA Live, NCAA Basketball). EA has pretty much ruined the fun seasonal sports video games I thought would always be present in my life growing up.

Two days ago I wanted this game, now I don't want it at all. Looks like no football for me this year, because NCAA doesn't really excite me either. It's a shame, because this mood really did seem promising, four days ago.
