Early Access to Madden NFL 15 is Working For EA Access Subscribers

[Gossennator]

I played for 2 hours last night..I need to space my time out wisely.

Anybody notice the lighting in the indoor stadiums/domes look awful?

Even the player models looks much more "blocky" at times when coming out of the huddle with the zoom cam. I want to build an outdoor stadium for my Saints in CFM just because of it. BTW can we still do that?

I find the playcall screen absolutely brutal. I pick plays by formation and it's really hard to navigate with the way it's designed IMO.

EA Access ripped me off an hour and 20 minutes on my 6 hour trial

He means he's not going to reward EA for penny pinching. To each there own, but it does seem somewhat shady to not release a demo then sell people on the idea of getting the game early for a price. Only to turn around and give people less access(time wise) to the game than they would have gotten with a demo.


We see this all the time a company will extract from consumers what they feel they can. If it isn't micro-transactions it's something like this. If EA has success giving you less for more and then charging you for the rest expect it to become a trend.


I for one agree that as a consumer it isn't always about what you have to spend it's about what you believe is fair. As long as you just go along with things because it's not too bad the more things will progressively get worse.

Comfirmed works. Just switch to your desired gt when you get in. I am a sucker.

Excellent to hear. I do hate giving those suckers more money, but the game is just too awesome not to. Plus I have the new semester of college starting Monday so I'd rather get alot of madden out of my system now than on Monday night at midnight with class all day Tuesday lol.

I would be just as satisfied if at the end of the 6 hour limit, for $5, they simply offer you the choice to play again.

It would be nice, it's like renting the game for $5 since it is the full game.
