Madden NFL 13 Title Update #3 Arrives October 16th, Edit CCM Rosters and More

[jethrotull]

Okay so on the draft players being able to be edited. My guess is that they don't want to throw away all their work on the back stories, which I could care less about. They are after all made up, so I doubt anyone would miss it. What ever happened to letting the people who buy the game play how they want to play it offline? I don't care about Bull Griggs, in fact I find it comical that EA would think anyone would. One of the greatest aspects was being able to import draft classes into Madden from NCAA, thus increasing replay value. My only question is if we cannot edit draft classes, what is the thought process behind it? Do you think people want to be told how to play a game offline, or do you not want your grand idea of scripted drafts thrown out?

I'm going to step out of my cone-of-silence for a moment and respond to this post because one, it is like a question I would have asked and two, I've learned since joining the Madden forums...

What I have learned is Madden is not one game for one person (whether that is a positive or negative is debated in other threads) so to ask if people want this or that is always yes. Yes to both, that there are just as many players that want one type of game as another.

I'm not saying don't don't ask/suggest that you want the game your way, just be aware that the game is made for as many different people as possible.

If not, then it'd be better to adjust how schemes work then allow player editing imo. In past years, you were able to edit positions and it would change a players OVR....then you could sign the player for cheap (at their bad position) then edit them over to their good position.

Because not all players are allowed to be moved to the positions we want them in (Pryor WR, Tebow HB etc).

This is an idea I posted about that I believe would help with this issue and add incredible replay value, all the while adding almost limitless storyline possibilities.

You should only be allowed to make realistic changes. DE to OLB, LG to RG, G to T, S to CB.

A quarterback to wide receiver/running back is realistic.

Some of them, Pryor, Tebow etc. just refuse to do it because they feel they can play in the NFL at a high level.

Did they put the option to use created playbooks in for CCM?
