Re: I hate being extorted for custom playbooks....

ea will never run out of ways to squeeze more money out of the consumer. that's why i avoid their games at all costs. which isn't too costly since almost all of their games are sub par.

madden devs shouldn't take this post as an insult to themselves. it isn't their fault that the company they work for are greedy as all hell.

Thumbs up Re: I hate being extorted for custom playbooks....

I don't think the current A.I is quite ready for custom playbooks especially for online games. There will be a lot of cheese plays online and with the current A.I its not a good idea.

Bottomline is Custom plays will get you wins if you know football. Ian Cummings said it himself that his long term vision of Madden was if a player who knows football, He will be more likely to win than someone who doesn't. What better way to combine football strategy and Madden with custom playbooks and the exclusion of exploits.

Hopefully play creator and improved A.I will be another big feature that comes in Madden 11. Then we're talking football!

Exactly. And that's exactly EA's intention, and for obviou$ rea$on$. And I suppose for fans of anal penetration, it's no big deal.

I didn't keep up with Madden after 03. But as I recall, the play creator tool was removed from the last-gen version years ago, wasn't it? This isn't an exclusive omission on next-gen, or is it?

I want to be able to edit my own playbooks but I think that they need to keep "play creator" only for franchise mode because it could really derail online play.

Sounds reasonable. But it doesn't explain why the feature was removed from the offline game. Or why it's no longer possible to edit CPU playbooks for offline games, which is another feature that's long gone.
