Josh Looman replied to a tweet within the last hour that asked if player editing will be patched in. Looman said,

"We haven't released any information about patches."

Doesn't even answer the question but at least he sorta acknowledged it. Still doesn't decrease the frustration though.

Does anyone know if and when they do release an update, will it apply to existing CC? Just trying to decide if I keep our league go-live of 9/7.

Thanks

I tweeted him twice already and still nothing. But what I do notice is that he's been answering his friends and co workers. They been tweeting each other on how cool the online is and how much time they spent on it. They were praising him for making Madden franchise the best ever created lol

I'm starting to think that Looman made the game he wanted to make, not what others wanted. It's really catered to the online audience and that's whats sad about this. I don't think they're going to put out the edit function for Madden 13. I could handle the assisted tackles being taken out, a few bugs and glitches there, but the missing edit function on a franchise that's been on there for years is what broke the straw on the camel's back.

I think the post launch update has more to do with the online tuner sets. I have a feeling IF they implement the old edit feature back in Madden, it will be like the broadcast cam, the assisted tackles being calculated correctly, and the ball spinning correctly in past versions, only to have it arrive late January, right when the season is about to end.

I honestly don't have any confidence editing of any kind will be in.

It's clear this game was meant 99% for online with everything else just There.

EA/looman just want madden 100% online and CC makes that pretty clear.

I'm sure that any patch is gonna address online issues first and foremost with everything kinda falling by the way side.

I'm disgusted with just about every aspect of CC and the poor execution of pretty much all of it.

Let me just stop now before I say things I really shouldn't.

But this is probably the sloppiest madden to date and we have had some really beauties prior. So that's saying something.

Why would "online" players want duplicate numbers, not to be able to start a CCM with ratings edits, not be able edit equipment or any host of things that are a result of the things that did not make it into CCm this year?

I understand being frustrated and/or disappointed about not having the same options that were available in offline franchise in M12 but it's nonsense to somehow correlate that to EA/Tiburon catering to "online" gamers. If that's true, then the last 3 years of almost completely ignoring online franchise, was clearly EA wanting to make Madden franchise 100% for offline gamers, which is equally ridiculous, imo. Other than multi-player capability, online and offline CCM have the same features and lack thereof.

Again - everybody BREATHE.

This game isn't yet officially released on the console for the majority yet some are carrying on like this problem has existed since John Madden was a boy. I have faith that this number issue and with it other concerns will be patched once all the feedback has been collated.

We've been told to have faith since the next gen. For some reason every year we've been let down and told that it would be addressed in next years version. I don't think anyone is panicking but trying to figure out if we should buy the game. Bottom line we all want to enjoy madden and want EA to deliver a complete game.
