Just got to be patient, games are not fixed overnight.

Except for the fact it was confirmed by EmmdotFrisk on page 3.

"Once you start your Connected Career you cannot edit ratings or positions, most everything else can be edited."

Kinda strange considering position made up the large bulk of reasons why people wanted editing in the first place *shrug*.

I am wondering if in formations will stick, and can you now use created playbooks in offline ccm gameplay

# 424 Tyrant8RDFL @ 10/05/12 12:21 PM

I will wait to see how these fixes are executed. On paper it sounds great but we have been down this road before where the fixes made things worst or just was not done correctly.

I'am very happy to read that the sliders will work like they do in play now. That is a huge one for me. If this is accurate information I will be cool with the game.

still no way to change cpu's unis?

I thought salary cap could be turned off at the beginning when you are creating your connected career?

It can, I'm not sure how he missed it.

Forgive me. I am still in denial. I can't believe they removed (or didn't add back in) something that has been in Franchise mode for as long as I can remember. A friend and I would play our teams in franchise mode until June every year but now we can't.

# 429 PlatooN @ 10/05/12 01:47 PM

incredible, the most impressive patch all around that i can remember in a long time for madden. I cant wait!

The problem is that when I try to make the fantasy draft rosters in the roster management before I would now enter my CCM, they enforce the salary cap with no option to turn of the salary cap then. I can't recall if there is a trade override feature and I could just take that elongated approach once I enter my CCM, but my original issue was in the roster management part

Oh yeah, I'm aware you can't import, but with editing I can change the names of the Madden rookies to coincide with the draft class out of NCAA. Imagination is key here lol.

# 432 Nuke LaLoosh @ 10/05/12 02:25 PM

This thread is 50 pages deep and I'd rather not have to go through all of it.

I see the custom rosters is for "offline" CC mode.

Point of clarification, is the editing of players for "offline" only as well?

And what exactly is coach mode? I thought thats what we already had, you pick a player or a coach?

Lil help here.

Let's hope that they give us the ability to edit the rookie names, height and weight, and school.

Sorry guys still here, reading what you are saying but helping to get stuff ironed out with the patch. I will dive through the rest of this thread and answer as many questions as I can over the weekend.

I wasn't trying to bash you or anything, but I know we're going to get 50 more pages and people still asking the same thing.

Coach Mode is where you call the plays and everything else is done by the CPU, i.e. Head Coach, Head Coach 09.

Also Would like to know!I like controlling all players on offense and the ability to use my created character on defense aswell.

# 438 mjh91 @ 10/05/12 02:50 PM

Has the wind been fixed? The directions are opposite the way they are pointed. I read through the entire thread and didn't see any mentions.

you will automatically be prompted to update when you start up the game. at least this is how it works for ps3, dont have 360.

# 440 bigbob @ 10/05/12 02:58 PM

I still can't believe that of all the "issues", they still haven't attempted to fix the coverage problems. That is one of the few things that can actually be labeled as game breaking.
