yep
its jus a normality now to wait for the 2nd patch before i can start a proper franchise.

before the 2nd patch comes out all we're doin is playing with sliders and practicing

I personally can't get excited about DPP until I see how it works. I CAN get excited about how much better blocking and tackling look and other presentation aspects. Bottom line I'm a madden junkie, love franchise mode and would buy every year even if all that was offered was updated rosters. I need my NFL fix.

and this is why they have us by the horns.
because they know guys like us exist.

skipping madden is unamerican imo

i just couldnt see myself not having the new madden every year even though i know the company may stiff me on a few issues


and i totally agree about DPP being nothing more than weapons and player roles revisted.
these things have probably been in the game all along but we didnt see them. after every season in franchise you will see a note that says "ASSIGNING PLAYER ROLES AND PROGRESSING PLAYERS"
so imo,its nothing new.

I love the franchise upgrades, especially DPP and player traits, but there is one reason above all others that is causing me to buy this year's edition of Madden:

The ability to edit players in franchise mode.

With that ability the possibilities are endless for me with franchise mode. I already have plans to randomly select 12 players each season and change their OVR by +9, +6, +3, -3, -6, -9. I'll do the same with players' potential. I'm going to change any player progression I don't agree with. I'm going to edit rookies that are unrealistic. It's going to be great
