Buying or Not Buying?

Tell you what, if not for the opportunity to play the beta, I would have sat out for a while.

The beta turned me.

It'd be interesting to track, LOL

Now, queue the people coming in behind me saying "well definitely not me! I'm not buying because I've had it with.."
Of course lol, day 1 purchase. It happens every yr. Easy to say not buying before release.

Re: Buying or Not Buying?

Yeah I'll probably buy it lol.

I will say though OS is pretty good for constructive criticism and good convos. There are some complainers, but I think it's on the low side. A lot of guys on here who just want the best and give valid points of how to achieve that goal. Overall, I like this community a lot.

I would agree with that, excellent post. Everyone here for the most part wants the best possible game I think. I normally wait to give constructive criticism until the game is in my hands. Im not sure if the NDA has been lifted on the beta yet for impressions.

Re: Buying or Not Buying?

Madden 18's CPU "Excessive Pancakes" blow up last year took me out of the automatic buy mode .... That was just like one of the biggest displays of their team just not caring enough to take the time to study and test how one of their band aid fixes for Online/Tourney Play might affect other users. That patch completely wrecked User vs CPU gameplay because the CPU didn't have smart enough logic when to and not to use the pass commit.....

So Ill be hitting up the vids/streams and opinions/reviews to see if they'll convince me....Looking forward to SimFBall streams....but I have to say I think Ive been so burned by that Pancake Fiasco its a lot more likely I don't buy until the price is down to $30 in Nov and if they haven't broken User vs CPU gameplay by then with one of their patches.

Re: Buying or Not Buying?

Not buying at launch. It's the first Madden game since... probably Madden 2002 that I haven't bought the day it comes out. Was so disappointed by Madden '18 that I'm waiting on Madden '19.

The game is always a wreck in the first month anyway, as day 1 bugs get day 1 patches that then break day 1 features, that then have to be repatched, etc, etc ad nauseam. I'll just wait for other people to beta test the game in August and september, and might buy it once we're properly into the NFL season.
