After seeing something like this, all I can really say is that I am really happy (and envious) for all of those who are die-hard basketball fans. This, along with overhauled My Career and My GM modes (seriously, read into what they've added or redone), makes me realize just what we football fans are missing out on. If what we fear becomes a reality with Madden when next gen drops, I may ignore football altogether and become a basketball fan. Just incredible...

OTher thread was closed so I guess I'll say it here...

The Devs SHOULD be replying. What other way to dispel the negative feedback than to reassure the customer that you are listening? Negative posts shouldn't cause them to just be quiet.. They should be able to reply to post and say "we are working on this in ways A, B, C". If they continue to let the negative rumors spread it will only hurt them.

Honestly it's not really that easy, because if they say they're working on "this" and want "that" in the game, and it doesn't make the cut, some members will attack and call them liars. Sometimes the way these games are developed and coded, especially Madden, things don't make it.

Just go back to the days when Ian was a heavy OS poster. He sold us some dreams that didn't make it into the game, whether his fault or not, he was attacked for it.

I don't know, I thought the last interview Rex Dickson and Clint had a few weeks ago seemed like they had a game plan in place, just based on the comments.

It's just slower than what we want based on past history of the game.

Don't tell us dreams though.. tell us the reality of the situation. The game is already done, it's coming out in a week or so. They could easily clarify what is in the game now and what they are working for for next year.

Not only that, what about huge question like "What is up with these penalties effecting the gameplay more than the sliders?". So many things in this game WE have to figure out how they work with hours and hours of tinkering when EA could just explain it to us.

This is at the Gamestop website, I doubt if the marketing is changing for this years game and next years game we will start hearing information around April, based on history.

I think Rex and Clint pretty much already did that in those interviews that were conducted.

No, the devs still visit and see our feedback. They just don't post much and I can't say I blame them.

I'm just saying, they could easily post and dispel some of this negative feedback if in fact these people are wrong. Why would you not want to correct them? Why continue to read and not say "hey the sidelines are interactive. we will show more later."

I've seen plenty of questions that could get a response and would ease a lot of peoples minds about next-gen.
