A format could look like this for an example: Go for it on 4th: Y/N 1st situation: When: 4th Quarter Where: Anywhere Behind by: 17 points 2nd situation: When: Anytime Where: Opponent's 40-50 yard line Behind by: Any Give the user options. Hasn't EA Tiburon always been about options and customization? Who knows though: this could be something they have planned for M13...

This is part of that announcement on the 23rd. (Rumored)

Yup. Thats what I'm thinking Online Communities will involve too. Different communities for Sim, Arcade, Beginners etc. with different rules. The ability to start your own Community with custom sliders like Fight Nights Gyms. The announcement is on the 25th though, isn't it?

hopefully we have a SIM option online if we want it. if we don't, this will be my last Madden for awhile.

amen this is just an option for Ranked games not something you would be forced to do so why are people against this?

Then don't play in that lobby, feel free to cheese with the cheesers. I mean how is it a bad idea to assist users who don't want to play against guys who DO THEIR BEST to GAME THE GAME. As it stands there's no way to avoid that type of cheap gameplay, now let me say will cheesers wander into a SIM lobby to troll from time to time...I anticipate they would but once they experience the consequence know as punting I doubt they'll visit too often.

If someone wants guidelines to govern their online experience they have a right to that choice (pending availability). For users who don't want restrictions, and want to play however there should be a lobby for them as well.

I agree 100% with this. The only thing is EA could add it, but like every other feature, make it an option to use. Even though they don't want to alienate the core audience they're alienating us "sim" gamers by not having it as an option.

Just my .02
