Sure, they were just as disappointed by some things not being in, but they also understand where we're going.

Why is it that this game is plagued with all sorts of bugs and glitches that honestly shouldn't have been in the game if you guys had people "testing" it.

In my opinion, those people who tested Madden need to be reprimanded or fired immediately. This not only hurt the reputation of EA, but it also hurts you and others as well.

I don't think it is too much to ask that the current things in the game work properly. Asking for ADDITIONAL content, like fantasy draft etc. is definitely not realistic. However, just making sure that the things in the game work right, is important to people like me who work hard for their money! I guess we will have to wait and see in October where this game really stand. Right now, it is SO CLOSE to being amazing, but too many bugs ruin MOST of the features of the game.............

You do understand that they actually took that stuff like draft and editing out, right?

I appreciate you posting here, but I think most people would agree that Madden 12's franchise was better. To this day, I don't understand why CCM was introduced into the game. Why limit our ability to do anything in CCM? Why are the difficulties (sliders) different in CCM versus play now? Yes, physics will add a tremendous amount of replay value to the game, once it has evolved and been implemented correctly. However, CCM was one of the game's most marketed features. It is buggy and does not work properly. How are we to believe that EA has this game headed in the right direction?

We are extremely motivated to address all uncovered issues. What bugs are bothering you the most?

Because Franchise mode is almost 10 years old. While franchise mode is good, the plan for Connected Careers is great. This is Connected Careers first year and we will continue to improve upon it year after year.

Hopefully EA will cut ties with fan sites alltogether and run with what they have here which is a great foundation. First time current gen ive really enjoyed the game, offline franchise. The vocal minority here doesnt need to influence them, just a bunch of crying and irrational behavior. Pretty much sums up any madden site that ever existed.

A couple of them sure gave the impression that they were just part of the Marketing Hype. I would like to get to know the rest of the Game Changers. We did have a couple really bad ones, but then we also had the "rgiles" type guys as Game Changers.

What do you think the prerequisite to be a Game Changer is?
