He has superstar development and only earned 1,018 xp for the week. Looks like xp gain is siginificantly reduced as well. We'll have to get the game and sim a few seasons to see if xp this year is tolerable.

So, there are improvements...we expected that. The question we must ask as consumers, is, is there 60 dollars with of improvements? I'm not so sure. Money is not the issue, its the principal of rewarding an effort or vision that doesn't satisfy me as a consumer that must be factored in.

I'm not going to pretend to know the first thing about developing a game but it should be tough for anyone to admit that the end result is what we should have expected from an independent team improving nothing but CFM for nearly a year. This is pretty disappointing. Does anyone here trust these guys with "randomly generated draft classes"? Do you trust "improved trade logic?"

I want to be excited for Madden this year, I really do. Unfortunately, as a Sim guy I'm just not.

Hey but the lead designer spent several months teaching himself how to make uniforms! Instead of you know, designing stuff.
I bet Looman is now wishing he never said that.

This is all my fault and I don't blame anyone but myself...I thought Madden being on "Next-Gen" systems would deliver a next-gen football game. EA never said this...I told myself.

Gameplay guys...Yall have that covered.

I'm that presentation (Both in game and "franchise") guy. When...Will...It...Happen...?

Does anyone know if they will list the team on the player card for each season like they used to until they removed it last year?

I think that is pretty realistic because Benjarvus is likely gonna be traded or released this season because of the emergence of Gio Bernard and they drafted Jeremy Hill. Cutler gets hurt every year so I wouldnt be surprised if he got hurt Sent from my KFTHWI using Tapatalk

think you're being overly optimistic.

would have also liked to see a year of simmed stats, since those were completely game breaking last year

How do you know they messed it up and he's not just a really big full back? Ever see Will Tukuafu for the 49'ers? He is 293 pounds (granted he is also a defensive end but they use him at FB).
