It was obvious as soon as they announced there would be no Madden demo. Essentially you are paying for $5bucks off your game and access to year old sports games that you may or may not be interested in. What is the value in that?

I love the I already knew stuff after the fact guy. That's very easy to say you know after it happens.

Most were basing this on the past. You ever heard of Season Ticket? It gave 3 full days of early access trail. It's not unreasonable to think this could have been similar.

Option to buy it or not..
Same people complaining about this same people who will go out and buy madden for $100 to play it early.

Key word "believed". People had a choice, they can wait and get full information since the game doesnt actually come out until the 26th or opt in based on their own expectations of "what they want". They did the latter, so the problems lies within each subscriber.

because for the last 8 years people have been able to get unlimited hours of early Madden gameplay for free through the demos.

We're not talking about best buy trade ins, but EA Access. BB trade in's make sense, EA Access doesn't.

So instead of just flat out reading what EA said EA Access included, they ignored it and just went with what Season Ticket (WHICH ONLY WORKS FOR SPORTS GAMES) had?

That doesn't sound very intelligent.

No they said 5 days but, no less than 2 hours. They were vague in purpose

This is just Season ticket with a spin on it. The vault is a nice idea but three last year sports titles isn't going to catch most peoples attention. BF4 is nice for people upgrading from 360 to x1, otherwise you already own it or don't want to play it.
