As long as they have the major injuries to guys like Romo and Teddy in there, I can handle doing the rest of it myself. If we had the ability to render players inactive for a specific amount of time through player editing I wouldn't even be waiting for this roster.

Thanks for the reply.

I wonder if D-Ware will get a little boost too. I feel they have had his block shedding a little low last couple years. Guess I could just edit it myself but for some reason I feel like that is cheating, lol

It's something they've done for years, ergo it's implied when you plunk down your $60 that weekly updates are a part of the deal.

I don't care either way, since their updates always leave a lot to be desired anyway. I just feel that as paying customers, we are entitled to be "entitled."

Now, the people who go into the NCAA roster update threads and bitch at the editors...THAT'S entitlement.


Show me where it says on the box or the info on the digital copy that weekly or week one or any roster updates are guaranteed as a part of my purchase. They give us what we paid for. Roster updates are relatively new and something extra to add value to the game. So yes I believe gripping about something, that isn't a guaranteed and at this point isn't late, not being out yet is acting entitled.

Guys have a right to sound entitled and I have a right to think and say I think it sounds entitled.

Now let's get back to the thread.

Let me ask you a question, when you bought your copy did you assume there would be no roster updates forthcoming?

This conversation is over.

The roster will be out tonight.

Discuss the content of the roster and leave the date/time of release alone.

Seriously.

Yes I did. And they have full filled that up to this point. Rosters will be up today and so I am fully satisfied.

Doesn't every sports title get updated rosters and patches. And have every year for a long time now. These things are expected. We give them money for the game in good faith that they'll tweak, tune and update. Could you imagine if they didn't LMAO. And the second you complain about it, I have the right to tell you you sound entitled.

Edit: posted this before I saw the mods post. My bad

Can we just close this thread? All people are doing in here is complaining. No meaningful conversation is going on. EA has having a time frame for this evening.

Typically EA will leave them off the depth chart.

I've never used community rosters for Madden, always have used the roster updates. After heading over to the roster forum, I didn't notice a specific dominant community roster update, something like oh OSFM is for MLB the show. If the EA update that launches tonight is missing a ton of players, I'll probably use a community roster. Is there a particular community roster for Xbox that comes highly recommended by the OS folks?

you've come this far, just as well hold out for the week 1's.

On Twitter Equipment Guru just said "rosters are on their way, let's all take a big exhale, you shall get your fix."

Because EA said the ones today would be innacurate and missing players. Just thought if there was a good alternative out there as the post I quoted earlier suggested, Id at least give them a look if the the EA roster releases and its missing Steelers (I dont care about any other teams accuracy really).
 
# 177 redsfan4life @ 09/09/16 04:42 PM
I just got prompted to download a roster. It looks the same tho hmm.
 
# 178 Aiq xDoDx @ 09/09/16 04:44 PM
Anyone know if the EA website with the player search functions will be updated when the rosters are? I'm stuck at work for a while longer and just curious to see some changes.

No need. The steelers still suck, so you are good. Saved you the trouble of loading up the website and being disappointed.
