He's referring to the fact your question has been re-asked and re-answered 570382 times.

The answer is no.

Try searching the thread. There's so much information already covering most questions.

I'm waiting for this patch like everyone else but since you can use custom rosters, im hoping player ratings dont decrease when starting a CCM because if they do, then whats the point in allowing custom rosters?
I appreciate the effort to introduce something new into Madden with the XP system.

However, I don't see a way it can work to have full editing restored (including daniel's scheme changes he mentioned above) as long as it exists.

Maybe it should be re-considered for M14 in order to restore control to the users for a more holistic coaching experience?

So then why don't goals, the new ratings, stats depend on whatever position we put them at on the depth chart? So if I change a WR to TE then all of their goals, ratings will all be updated according to the new position. I'm sure there are calculations that go on under the hood that determines all of this automatically when rosters are updated and they aren't hard coded. Plus, I don't get why stats depend on position?

Since the XP system is used to increase player attributes (and why there's no editing of player attributes in CCM) and Mini Camp was used for the same purpose, why not bring back something that has to do with football, is a lot of fun to play and accomplishes the same goal - which is being able to increase your player's attributes without editing?

I dont like the scheme setup because it defeats the purpose of using custom rosters and prevents other things that the user should be able to do but cant. I dont like that the scheme actually increases or decreases overall ratings. Its stupid. I'm a 49ers fan and im sorry but there's no way in hell that TE Vernon Davis should decrease 5 points in CCM because he doesnt fit the scheme when in reality, he's easily the biggest offensive weapon we have in the passing game and some would argue that Davis IS the passing game. Just doesnt make any sense at all.

Tiburon/EA should go back to basics, add in the stuff they took out for no apparent reason other than to piss people off, and give the user as many options and customizing as possible. It's 2012, I shouldnt be playing a video game that gives me less options and such than what was available a decade ago. Seriously, it makes no sense and is the opposite of what it should and is supposed to be.
I think you are missing the point of xp. It just gives the user control over what ratings can be increased as opposed to the CPU just increasing their ratings based off of who knows what. The only real RPG aspect to madden is when you do a player CCM and then you have practices you have to complete to get more xp.

I agree that a lot of new things that Madden does add ends up not working as intended.

1st, complete contradiction, role playing is defined as representing something other than your real world. Rolling a 20 sided die to pick the lock of the treasure chest you just killed that dragon for is used to represent the actual sport of being a level 14 Rogue Seems to me from some other posts I've read on here that "role-playing" has a negative connontation and has taken on the meaning more of playing dress up dollies rather than simulating any other role than your own.

2nd I honestly am not trying to be mean nor am I judging this person individually, I just wanted to say that reactions like this, and statements as above are probably (and remember I'm a niche player, not a Maddenite) why Madden is having such an identification crisis. You can not please all the people all the time, so why everything that the person wrote above is correct, for them, and valid, it is only one voice out of many and unless they make a million different versions of Madden each year, someone is always going to think Madden makes no sense.

If you have another patch after this one, could you people please add the ability to swat down a ball? I mean, please?

Seriously. Like half of the posts and threads on this board are from people that apparently just can't read or are just to lazy to.

Congratulations, but not everyone has the time to read through all 84 pages of a thread.
 
# 732 JayD @ 10/11/12 07:52 PM
Emmdotfrisk, Any idea if the duplicate number glitch when trading players was fixed for offline CCM? I know it was fixed for online CCM so I can only assume that the patch will have this fix.
 
# 733 goatboyba00 @ 10/11/12 08:09 PM
i wondering if this patch has cpu vs cpu in cc mode sometimes i like to sit back and watch

IIRC, all the changes made to online CCM will be implemented to offline CCM in the patch. The exception of course being Fantasy Drafts. Those will remain an online only feature. So expect complete continuity between online and offline CCM.

A) alot of questions have been asked and are answered in the very first post

B) Like alot of people have stated several times before there is a search thread button and contrary to popular belief it does work.

C) It's really frustrating to try and read through 84 pages when over half of these pages could probably be removed but instead are wasted space due to people asking the same question 3 post in a row after its been answered 5 different times.

Now I know you think we are trying to be internet bada**e* but we arent as little time as you have to not read the 84 pages how do you think those of us who have read them feel when we see the same 5 questions?

I'm sure Emm loves reading all of the 84 pages as well

If edit player lets us change numbers ourselves, it shouldn't matter, right?

Sometimes I read a post and I wonder if it is someone from the Head Coach team posting in disguise just to troll Head Coach because I read the post and what they want is SO blatantly what Head Coach did
