Can you earn achievements/trophies in the Early Release? Yes. Achievements/trophies you earn during Early Releases (while connected to EA Servers) will unlock once you purchase and log into the EA Servers with the retail version of the game. It's the perfect way to get a headstart on the competition.

I've found that not to be the case in terms of the features. I have the Ticket. So unless, going fwd, EA is opening everything in the games, feature wise, it hasn't been that way.

Not really, it's incentive to keep your subscription, and also keeps you interested/going back to MUT.

Makes a ton more sense than suddenly having 25 packs to open.

My Season Ticket Experience is limited, will I be able to buy hypothetically the Season Ticket at 8,9,10pm est etc. and still get the Madden early release?

I'm going to be at work til late and was curious if it mattered when I purchased the pass...

And it makes it extremely unfair to people without it. If you had 25 packs all at once your team would be able to DOMINATE from the start against others.

Extremely doubtful you'll have any problem. EA isn't in the business of refusing money.

As a long time madden player and mostly disappointed this generation, I am really looking forward to this version.
So much so that I paid for the season pass just to get it early.
The things that am most interested in is the infinity engine which seems to make for some great organic unpredictable gameplay.

I a oddly excited about connected careers and online as I feel that they will add repeat gameplay and variety that it has been missing the past couple of years.

The clearly nice graphical upgrade that no one seems to be talking about. Players look to be varying sizes and carry the weight that they should.

That all being said, 6pm tonight cannot come fast enough!!!

It's actually cheaper for me to get the pass and wait for Tuesday. I could get the retail Sat for 60 bucks or buy the pass, them Tuesday use my credit at best buy so looks like I'm getting it tonight.
