EA Sports has confirmed Madden NFL 13 online fantasy drafts will arrive tomorrow, in a server side fix for online users. While it's not the editing in CCM most of us were looking for, it is something the community has asked for.

I wouldn't stay up. It's probably a morning rush hour update. Go to bed tonight dreaming of getting your favorite QB/HB/WR combination that you've been waiting for.

Cam Newton, LeSean McCoy and Mike Wallace???

If only...

I think a lot of people STILL don't realize that you can play online as one person with a private CCM. How could you say "I don't want to play online against other cheesers?" Who are you playing against? You only play against other humans in an online CCM if you INVITE other humans to an online CCM.

Only reason to play offline is if you can't afford internet or the service like XBL.

Looman blocked me on twitter just cause I said I was dissatisfied with this year's game and told him he needed to fix it before I returned my game

Props are due to ea (atleast so far) for M13!

Thats not true about more online some guy from EA wrote in here there's more that play offline about 80 percent I'll try and find it and pull it up for ya

They're able to update it online first since it's their own server. Me thinks that once the next patch clears MS/Sony, the patch notes will make a lot of people happy.

thats bs, the offline crowd is still the majority. sales of madden 13 have topped 1.65m copies sold, and your gonna site here and try and tell me that over 800,000 ppl play online hahahaha ya dreamen. there making a shift to put everything online so then they can track you,take data and make money off of it. go look in your settings in madden and there is an option for them to track your movements through the game.

So this will eventually come to offline? YSSS!! lol I can't believe they added it in im so happy! Will they maybe add broadcast mode and cpu vs cpu in cmm too?!?! Also quick question.. If I buy madden a week or 2 from now will I still get this side update?

With a surprise like fantasy getting added in when they say it wouldn't, I would think the sky is the limit for other surprises. I'm thinking for the next offline patch you will see fantasy and player editing, as those were the two biggest features wanted back in. I hope they can check other players concerns with offline mode sliders and such too this year.

Cutler man, keep in mind that they can't add something to offline mode right away like they can with online. EA isn't forcing you to play online, but you will have to wait til next patch to play fantasy offline. Patience my son, a lot of politics go on with console patches and it's not a quick process

For sure man! I can't get the game until a week or 2 from now (pre orderd borderlands 2) so I gotta wait, hopefully I can still download this update. I really hope they add in the ability to move your controller and let the cpu duke it out, that's what my friends and I do after we make our teams, can't wait!

I hope so too. Along with fantasy draft, I was a good fan of CPU vs CPU games and creating Dynasty threads in the Dynasty forum for these type games.

You can download the patch any time, ever. So don't worry, they won't stop offering it. Honestly, it'll probably be closer to three or four weeks before the patch comes out, with it having to go through certification and all that.

If you cannot afford internet access, you have bigger issues than what features are in Madden 13.

They took a risk based on what the community was asking for and it was implemented not in full. In business you have to make risks, but not all of them will be successful. You have to give them credit for trying though. Madden needed to be shaken up a little.

I agree 100 percent!!!

Sweet! How about this side update for online fantasy draft will this always be available as well? And bear down I wouldn't say that.. They just added in fantasy draft and will be adding in editing players soon. All they will have left is a few other things fans wanted, at least their answering our wants.
