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

03:33 PM - August 21, 2014 by Steve_OS

Microsoft has resolved the Madden NFL 15 early access issue for EA Access subscribers. For some odd reason, users were able to download it, but couldn't actually play the game.

Exclusive to Xbox One users, EA Access subscribers get six hours of gameplay. So make sure you close out of the app when it's not in use. The timer starts when you start the game and pauses when you exit and close the app.

Does the intro count toward your minutes. Can you exit it

Would love some impressions on draft classes and skill player physical attributes. Posted it in the QA thread, but thought I'd post it here in case someone wants to check it out.

Someone find out how we see our trial timer

# 4 usaaaaaa @ 08/21/14 03:44 PM

For the timer, it just tells you as you start the game. Nothing ticking down in the corners or anything

# 5 therealsmallville @ 08/21/14 03:45 PM

Do we know that there even is a timer? lol It can't be difficult to just keep track ourselves, right? We're not children...

Can someone get me a screenshot of this?

So assuming no additional time given?

# 8 Gorilla Glass @ 08/21/14 03:52 PM

I was told once the game loaded up that I had less than 6 hours.

# 9 B1MM3R @ 08/21/14 03:53 PM

Great, stinks. Can be in middle of game that you didn't expect to go into overtime and bam, game over your 6 hours are up lol.

# 10 chrisphil1724 @ 08/21/14 03:56 PM

Now to see if we to find a way to game the timer to play longer then 6 hours.....

I uninstalled and am trying to reinstall now. When I finished the intro, it said the game was still installing so all I could do was play Seahawks/Panthers while it finished. Looked in my game queue and it said installation stopped....Looked fishy so I'm trying fresh now that everything is working.

Everyone has to finish the Seahawks game first.

Cool time to set my phone timer for 50 mins. 1 hour Friday-Sunday. 2 hours Monday done.

# 14 Steve_OS @ 08/21/14 04:16 PM

Hey nascar163, can you grab one of the timer?

# 15 CT Pitbull @ 08/21/14 04:18 PM

That intro game with Panthers vs Hawks was sweet. Wish the presentation was always like that with the playcall from the OC and Cam calling the play in the huddle. It would get old after a while but it would be a nice touch to late game situations only.

Not true. Once I got to the actual game play part. I hit pause, quit game. Had to watch the movie part before though

# 17 CT Pitbull @ 08/21/14 04:20 PM

there should be an actual timer with hours/min/seconds to go...kinda vague what we have above

# 18 B1MM3R @ 08/21/14 04:21 PM

Nascar163, did you play madden 25? If so how much better is madden 15 so far?

# 19 carthagebaseball @ 08/21/14 04:22 PM

Can you log into another user account on your X1 and play or do you have to use the account that is tied to the EA Access?

# 20 jmurphy31 @ 08/21/14 04:28 PM

Played one game so far. Patriots vs browns. 5 minutes all-pro 20 second run off

I've never been so nervous playing or setting up a game. The timer is in the back of your head. Makes it tough to enjoy and watch things like halftime or replays

Graphics are better(but why is everything so shinny including the browns uniforms).

Presentation is better

Won 21-7

I chose kick if I won the toss, I received so I'm guessing the CPU won the toss and elected to kick. I can't remember the last tine the CPU did that

CPU running game was not great but there run defense was better than 25

I have to get used to the new play calling screens

My formations were all screwed up. They had Ridley lined up wide in my 5 wr set , it had gronk as a wr and Williams as a te in a 4wr, 1te set

I like switching cameras on the fly

CPU play calling and clock mgmt seemed ok
