I'm buying it on release day.

I'm pretty disappointed about the news because I'm really excited to dive into Madden OF for the first time. However, offline got plenty of love so EA will still get my money this year. The only difference is Madden went from a Day 1 "must have" to a Day 2 purchase if I'm out.

Honestly if you're not being useful, why post? IMO your just giving in and accepting what you don't like. I am trying to do something about it.

Well I mean I'm sure some people will feel the same way I do, and this thread should kinda spark the idea for them to buy used instead of new even if they "must have madden." I don't expect everyone to do it of course, but hopefully more people will now than there would've been had I not made the thread.

Why?

Online franchise was never a factor in my purchase decision, like most others who play the game as the poll shows.

Online Franchise mode is ok. But alot people play more offline franchise mode then anything. That's why alot attention was geared more towards offline franchise mode this year instead of online franchise mode. I can see why some people would be mad about this. But most people are more happy to offline franchise worked on and improved instead of online. But like it was said in the blog. Online franchise mode will be at the top of there list for next year. So I'm assuming there will be some changes coming.

Similar to others, online franchise had no bearing on my decision to pre-order and eventually purchase. The presentation additions, new tackling system, and offline franchise updates are more than enough to make me happy. First Madden I'm buying in 4 years

People purchase Madden other than reasons for OF. If that is the case, why try to suggest buying used when that is the position you support, but not them.

Plus, you are purchasing NCAA, so, it's all going into the same company.

Not to mention if you're buying Madden used, you're almost certainly tossing them another $10 for an online pass if you are buying it for this reason.
