The Crusade to get EA to Fix Madden 08

Alright guys, I've been doing this on the EA forums, and at digitalsportsmania.com (formerly maddenmania.com)...and I've been getting pretty good feedback...so I want to bring the people over at this forum into the fold too. All I ask, is that you follow one of the two links below, to get acquainted with what I've been doing, and what I've found out so far...and then give me feedback here as to what issues, glitches, errors, and complaints with the game...so I can relay them to the EA rep I've been speaking with. I finally found one who gives me responses that aren't your run of the mill, generic, bottled response. All I ask, is that you present your issues in a neat, and tidy manner...and be professional about it. Just make sure you're as detailed as possible with the situation the error occured, or what would lead up to the freeze...or whatever your issue is. Please make sure it's a valid complaint...and not just little nitpicking. It has mostly been focused on the Next Gen systems, as they seem to have the most problems. Make sure you specify what system you're having the issue with. Again, I thank you all in advance for your help...and hope to hear from you guys soon.

(I am picking up where I left off in the other threads on the other 2 boards. Read my previous posts on those boards, to catch up to this new post. Thank You.)

Alright, another response from EA...

"Response (GM Petrucchio) 09/17/2007 11:56 AM

Hello,
The truth is that at this point I really don't have any information about what may or may not be correctable with a patch. As I mentioned in my last reply I'm going to send up a full report on the roster/free agency issue later today along with a number of these issues which have been addressed. Out of all of these problems, assuming they are all valid, the only one that would be treated as a "critical" error would be the roster/free agency issue. I would anticipate that that will receive a higher priority than these other issues, but I really don't have any specific information at this time.

Sincerely,

Re: The Crusade to get EA to Fix Madden 08

Have you asked him about the supposed higher turnover issue reported by others by hyperkinectic db's and lb's?

Also, X2 reported interception bug on franchise stats.

If you go back and read those links he posted, he asked about those. According to the EA rep, those aren't high priority enough to look at fixing right now. I hate to say it, but I kind of agree with that assessment. Right now, to the average person, the game is still playable. None of those problems prevent you from actually being able to play a game. The Free Agency/Roster problem is one though that can stop a franchise mode dead in its tracks.

I appriciate the effort indy I also sent a letter in. I got a response today basically saying he tested out the free agent problem and INT stat problem himself and said I was right, and he contacted the Dev. Team, and he said they are aware of it and are trying to get a patch out as soon as possible.

This is really the only thing that is keeping me from playing the franchise mode...

Yeah, I hear ya, I haven't played Madden in three weeks because the 360 is in the shop. My only issue with TO's is most of them seem to be returned for 6.

The Int issue in franchise and the freezing issue is what I was mostly concerned with.
