Madden NFL 13 CCM Server Side Update Arrives Tomorrow, Fixes Salary Cap Issues

and I play offline so I can adjust the rosters and OVR. As far as I can tell you can't do that in online

I don't understand why they have separate online and offline ccm, anyway. seems to me they'd be better off setting CCM to recognize if # of owners=1, then certain things change, but everything else remains the same.

Right now, it seems like they have to fix lots of things twice, because the same problem exists in online ccm and offline ccm.

You could have done a single user online CC, but you decided to do an offline one for who knows what reason. The only ones I feel sorry for are the offliners that didn't have choice of doing an online CC because of a lack of internet. I feel sorry for those guys in instances like this. All you other guys that just didn't wanna have to play on EA's servers, you got what you asked for. Now you can sit back offline and hope that EA comes out with some kind or patch for this or you can quit complaining and get online like the rest of us. I promise you its not as bad as you think it is lol. On topic, this news makes me quite happy. I am currently -1399.99 in the hole as far as my cap is concerned and I have a lot of young guys I need to resign. I already missed out on some key players because of this. Hopefully my CC will have some kinda plan for people like me that already lost some guys because of this. Anyway, this is good news. I just hope EA didn't break nothing else by fixing this lol.

I'll tell you why I play offline. I started out with an online franchise...and after the first 2 games I played disconnected in the 2nd half and I lost the game, that was it for online for me.

You hit it right here. Many of us don't want to rely on EA Servers. Should not have to.

Anyway, congrats to online guys for this is a big deal for you. Now let's hope they work on and greatly improve the CPU AI (before the season actually ends).

Sure I give them props for doing this rather than not doing this. But LOL at great support. The NFL regular season is 3/4's over and the game still has major bugs.

And it is as bad as I think it is. Not yet worth buying for me. The CPU AI is still a big issue for me (end of half and game). From what I hear, playbooks are messed up that the recommendation is to use generic playbooks. Dude, you can't promise me anything.

I was very happy to sign into my team and see that I can now sign my players. But I can't help but wonder what is the next thing to go wrong. But I am happy that the mode works.

#1 reason for me too.

#2 is the ability to use current rosters if there are some players who have been added (PS, UDFAs, etc) or who are a lot better than first rated (Luck, RGIII, etc) that I want long term in my franchise. If I did online, I am stuck with week 4. For offline, I can pick any roster I want to start a CCM with (sometimes it is worth re-starting...I did so to get Alexander on the Chargers).

Is there a chance this will be patched to offline gamers?

You can sometimes go by past history and patterns. If there are server fixes, sometimes, in the future, offline should be patched as well.

We'll see.
