Wow, it seems like Madden is turning a corner. EA is listening to us, and putting something like CCM rosters in mid-season. I have to say I'm impressed.

I don't want to push it, but I still think we should be able to change positions, even if they're only minor changes, like LG to RG, or move a guard to tackle, or some times teams move a CB to S late in their careers.

Can I turn off the damn play clock yet?!?
Gahhh I hate that thing.
I like to Sub at the playcall screen, audible at the line, use some motion...then get hit with a DoG every other play.

I wish they would let us see more of the replays just bad. I ran back a kickoff and got to see the last 5 yards of the run just stupid. Do they watch football at all? I'm 100 percent sure on espn they would show the whole run. I know it's kinda knit picky but come on they say it's in the game and how it's so life like, well its not. They keep striping us of the basic stuff we come to expect and just keep adding useless fluff and calling it great. My SNES played full replays on football games. I wish this would of been patched

Not nitpicky, at all, and ur right about full replays playing out on old systems. EA has to really continue to step it up and I hope that going into the new consoles we don't lose features and the things that were already in place, again, like in the tradition to the current consoles. Hopefully they've been working on a brand new engine all these years that can be implemented new gen that is as or more flexible than the 2KSports engines.

Sounds like we can create multiple players and use that custom roster. If true I will be buying. Holding off till that is confirmed.
 
# 469 SeventhWard @ 10/06/12 02:18 PM
Still no fix for the upside-down on-field Kickoff, Playoffs and Championship Game banners.

Dammit. Too bad Josh Looman blocked me on Twitter for getting at him over Ultimate Team a few years back. Somebody tell the man!

i always enjoyed going back and see who made the good block or who missed the tackle that's the best part of the play not when the guy crosses the chalk line. This to me just takes away from the immersion factor of the game and brings the presentation down. Sometimes I go what are they thinking and scratch my head and go why?
 
# 471 Darth Aegis @ 10/06/12 04:41 PM
Whats going on with the stat bug after the game where it adds the amount of yards up wrong played a game today where it said the chiefs total offense 108 yards but they had 102 rushing yards and 130 passing yards? But I was the bears and my side all was added right. Whats going with that someone needs to go back to 3rd grade math lol

Cool. I hope draftee names are included in this.
 
# 474 LovejoyOTF @ 10/06/12 07:24 PM
i doubt it, what with the whole storyline thing. at a stretch, the ones without a storyline attached might be editable.
 
# 475 David Brown @ 10/06/12 08:08 PM
Glad to hear that they have fixed the coach mode in connected career. Looks like they put a lot of work in this patch to please the buyers. Thank you.

Ok. Thats what I'm trying to get clarified here. Emmdot said "most" everything else can be edited. I'm digging in the weeds trying to get something concrete. I don't figure it should be a big deal for the simple fact that the names aren't spoken (I don't think) so it should just change the names within the written twitter paragraphs no biggy.
 
# 477 DrDoctor @ 10/07/12 11:03 AM
There are too many pages for me to figure out if this question has already been asked.... so forgive me if it has...

Anyone know if all these changes will take affect in current offline CCM's? Or will I have to create a new one in order to take advantage?

Can someone, doesn't necessarily have to be Frisk, explain to me WHY we can't edit the positions of our players? That seems like one of the most logical things to edit. OLB / DE. Tackle to Guard. Guard to Center. Left Tackle to Right Tackle. Now the depth chart does let us work around the limitation somewhat, but still....

My hypothesis is they don't want cheesers (God did I really just use that word) turning online CCM to a fiasco by making Mark Barron a DT and Aaron Rodgers a WR. But that's all I can come up with. Seems like the schemes and such should be able to still function.

If you can already move the player to the correct position, then why do you need to edit it? I believe schemes affect players by depth chart position, but I could be wrong on that. If not, then it'd be better to adjust how schemes work then allow player editing imo.

In past years, you were able to edit positions and it would change a players OVR....then you could sign the player for cheap (at their bad position) then edit them over to their good position.

It changes the goals, say you get a Dexter McCluster and you need him to play slot you would make him a WR instead of a RB so his goals would change affecting his xp.
