You are completely missing the point. If you played offline you would understand. Either way I can't believe you can sit here and blindly defend this.

EA didn't set out to screw over the offline player, so I don't even know why you're even saying that. Also, are you even 100% certain they're not going to release this to the offline player? This is a SERVER SIDE UPDATE. Something they can push out without the approval of Sony or Microsoft. There's a possibility that they add this to their patch whenever that's released. If they do that, then this entire argument is moot.

..........Okay just because they didn't set out to screw over the offline player doesn't mean that didn't do just that...... Stop being blind....

This sucks I don't want to play online, I don't want to play against other people. I enjoy playing against the AI and I can't play at my pace when I want. Not having to play against some ******* who is cheesing. I like to play offline the sliders I like, the trades I like, and big have to make other league players happy. I hope to God 2k comes out with a game it will be so much better than madden after 1 try, not this bull crap ea makes us deal with by taking stuff out one yr then putting it back and say look what we added!!!!!

Yes we can have a fantasy draft in a broken mode. Joepie

So they're punishing you because they screwed something up unintentionally? Pick a new word other than "punishing" and I might agree with you.

And stop saying I'm being blind. My eyes are quite open to the issues with Madden, both online and off.

Once again, if this draft comes out in the next patch that has to go through certification, this entire argument is moot.

Idk I wouldn't be shocked if EA was kinda lax on testing CC on both sides knowing that they could push a server side up date for any online bugs or kinks and the lack of early patch for some of the more obvious issues in offline kinda lends weight to this

Not even close man. Look at the poll in my signature. Only 53% or so care about fantasy, roster editing, draft class, coach mode, and created players combined. So prob more like 20% care that much at all about fantasy drafts.

Don't get me wrong, I am 100% behind getting features for everyone, but this wasn't that big of a announcement to the majority, just a small %.
Personally, I think this is just a ploy to get people to play their careers online. They like to show a lot more people are online then there really are playing online vs others leagues IMO.

Anyway, congrats to the guys asking for this. I am happy for you guys, I know what it's like to be missing features I care about(roster edit, playable and working zoom cam, 2 minute & game CPU play call, and much more)
