Does anyone know if we have to always start a CC with the latest roster update or whether we can use pre- downloaded roster files i.e. The default or pre-seadon update later in the year ? I ask this because if its the former it would explain why no editing is possible

I have a question to the community...Is it plausible that having the ability to edit rosters will lead to jacked up teams with 6'4" CBs, 400 pd linemen, & 6'7" WRs..etc? I play Dynasty mode on NCAA every year & this year in 2012, EA allowed that edit roster feature (height & weight in particular) into Dynasty mode to all users, after the Dynasty began & it hurt way more than it helped. I think letting Donny handle the roster updates is good enough because it keeps the game on a level playing field...IMO. General consensus, from what I've read so far about M13, is that the game will be great. My point being...you've got to give the man a fair chance to succeed at updating the rosters before U fail him at updating the rosters..don't U?

For online 'fanchises' editing of any description would have to solely in the hands of the commissioner to remove the possibility of misuse, for offline the user would be his own commissioner and therfore have total control returned if I'm reading things correctly.
Experience tells us donny moores updates will not please everybody whether because they are inaccurate or simply because ratings are a subjective issue

if its anything like past maddens u had use either the default or first updated one if u did a franchise unless so how they changed it this yr and the rosters update with every weekly one donny puts out but i doubt that's possiable.

What I' meaning is does CC use downloaded saved roster files or load its roster direct from the disc or from the web if an update is available ?

i want to spread a little bit of advice to roster editor donny moore and hope that one of you with a twitter account could pass this along to him if you agree with me...

since we have no ability to edit rosters or create players during CC my advice to donny moore is to greatly expand the free agency pool by hundreds of players..please include anyone who remotely has a chance to make an NFL roster this year in the first roster update..include any or all undrafted free agents that have been signed and released throughout the preseason because u know there will be many who end up in the leagu somewhere this year due to injuries and other circumstances ..make sure the next diamond in the rough is in free agency even though he may not be on a team yet in real life ..it may be a lot of work but it will help you and us down the line
