Madden NFL 13 Title Update #3 Available Now, Post Your Impressions (360, PS3)

[Whomario]

can anybody say if offline CCM now plays the same as play now and online CCM ? Can´t connect my box to the net regularly for another month or so...

Also, is there a way to convert your online CCM to be an offline one ?

[nekolas]

Did anyone check the CC practice XP? Is it only for player careers, or does it also work on the players you have in coach career?

edit: sorry if this was answered already, but tried to search the thread through on keyword 'practice', and couldnt find it answered

I read through the whole thread and didn't see an answer for this question:

If I start an Online CCM today will I be able to change offensive and defensive scheme on the 19th when it is available for Online or will I need to start a new online CCM on the 19th?

thanks!

Yeah I just completely lost hope. The fix of "editing players" just allows you to edit equipment, number, and college. Yet when you click to edit a player they front like you can edit Name, Age, Height, and Weight. Total BS.

I was hoping that I could edit these fake rookies and make them real life players in the first 4-5 seasons. Being forced to play with fake players is horrible.

Bring back importing draft classes. Not everyone cares about fake, cheesily named, scripted draft classes. CCM should have been it's own mode and franchise shouldve been left alone.

No, it is only editing Offensive and Defensive linemen.
You will notice the second you enter the editing screen in CCM that they will have ridiculously skinny arms. If you "accept and save" it will alter their body completely and so far what seems to be permanently in the current CCM, be it Coach or Player, and from what I gather, off and online.

The QBs and FBs get the same skinny/huge arm problem in the editing screen, but it is not permanent for those positions and just setting the arm size back to something reasonable seems to work just fine.

Every other position seems to be fine, but I didn't check the kickers because they are kickers.

I see so many off the wall names with the draft class rookies. They tried to hard to avoid using common names. Some of the names are just flat out insulting.

Everyone should've known. You can't edit anything that matters that will actually make the game more realistic. And the stuff you can edit messes players up. Go figure.

The game plays well enough for me to actually play Madden for the first time in 2 years, but the fake rookies just kills it for me because I follow college football too closely.

I don't understand why these people thing that any part of a sports game should be scripted. Sports games are not RPGs. But having these stupid, repetitive features like Twitter and Newsfeed means we have to play with fake rookies. No realism whatsoever.

Every class has it's own storylines for about 6 to 10 players. It's not perfect, but there is no way you could do that for the real NCAA FB classes coming in for 30 years.

It is by far the best drafting experience Madden has had.

I'm not sure exactly what it is you are so on about though. I follow college ball too and after 3 years from now, who cares? Unless you follow prep ball too in which case you may have too much time on your hands. lol

The point is, you are asking for something that is basically impossible. Even just having the players available doesn't guarantee any level of accuracy in the draft classes.
