Madden NFL 13 Roster Editing Issue Rears Its Ugly Head

[themassacre771.1]

Everyone is getting so damn old waiting for an elite Madden. We need that 10/10 madden to be created and to launch ASAP.

Agreed.......I feel like next gen Madden has been a complete Frankestein like effort and it lacked direction. I hope someday someone takes over at EA that has great vision and takes both NCAA and Madden in a better direction than its gone the past 6 or 7 years. I think the standards at EA with NCAA and Madden have been terrible and way too many things just slip through the cracks or just get completely ignored and end up in the game. The NCAA import from last year is a great example of how low the standards have been IMO.

Yeah this gen of Madden has been mediocre at best. Simple as that. I do, however, think they are going in a good direction right now. Focusing on career modes and gameplay. I think they really just did not realize how important those features they took out were. That's why Looman called them "little things". He just did not know. Hopefully he puts all that stuff in next year along with some new things and we get that great madden before all the new consoles launch. (this may be me wishing because this would delay me from having to buy a new console). We shall see friends.

Like I said, when you compare Madden NFL 12 to real life and look at every part of the core gameplay, you would think it's an arcade based game not trying to be realistic. Like Franchise408 said, it just isn't a competent game of football gameplay wise. It's almost pathetic how unrealistic it is, going from the movement of the players, to liberty we have with audibles and offense/defensive hot routes, to how bad the challenge system is, and the slight lack of penalties. After 7 years, of Next-gen, I don't EA will release a competent game of NFL football. I know Josh Looman is moving in a "good direction" with Madden, but the decision making of this team might scare me. I mean online multiplayer CC but no offline multiplayer CC?

Truly the "...too much time on our hands" comment was another big contradiction thrown at us who want our beloved editing features back. Why? Because the time it's going to take to do thousands of practice sessions for XP points that you "hope" are going to allow your players to progress properly, it will take exponentially longer to achieve results compared to just having a full, quick edit option and/or sharing other edited rosters to use in-season.

True, good point. But those who are saying "too much time on our hands" are those who might not even know what the feature is meant for. Just because some of them don't use it, they don't have the right bash on us. I mean, some people in hate how badly done the equipment was for some players. Some didn't like how retired jersey numbers were used for players. Many things editing is used for.

If they ever got

Improved Running/Momentum(End of Zig-Zagging)

Looman seemed to know how important they were last year when he was talking up allowing ratings editing in franchise tho
