Madden NFL 13 CCM Will Not Allow You to Play Other Games on the Schedule, Only Yours

[dill911]

you know reading the twitter feed from Dewiel on the original post, they honestly just have no idea. he keeps saying how "well if your the browns coach, you would never be able to coach another team in real life?" and saying " well ya your gona miss those things but this mode is better." according to who? you and your development team? i honestly think they have no idea what they are doing. they don't understand the view point from us, as a customer. they are hyping all of this "real life" stuff and umm its a video game! if we want martin luther king jr. to be our running back with Abe lincoln at qb, why cant we! its just insane. honestly looking at all this is summarized in one point. : a complete breakdown between EA and the customer." just look at the twitter timeline and its all right there

Yepp, the "workaround" basically COULD mean losing the ability to scout + upgrading your coach attributes

You know it comes down to this really...It's your game you should be able to play it how you want to...It's a game right and my lord this site is going to blow up if the AI is not 100% right and I'm almost 101% sure that will be the case...I couldn't wait to see what June 4th was going to bring but really I can't wait till everyone talks about the AI....It will be a fun show to watch that's for sure.

If i coached the cowboys and the eagles play the 49ers or someone. I could just tank the eagles game so I can move up in the standings. I hope this post was all a joke...

I can't believe some of the people in here that are posting things like this. Do you understand we've had this feature since Madden 94 and Tecmobowl on the SNES?

This makes no damn sense if you think about it. Give the user the option to play traditional franchise or CCM. Plain and simple.

I can't wait to see a full Crazy Trades thread like the one on MLB The Show 12 forums

Albert Pujols from the Angels to the Pirates for A.J. Burnett + 2 AAA Prospects

Tom Brady from the Patriots to the Jaguars for Blaine Gabbert + 2 2nd round picks

Done & Done! But only one of these 2 games has the ability to take control of the AI to prevent this from happening

Well, if they are indeed trying to shift the focus from offline to online, as Taj suggested, then it makes sense. They can shift the players online and charge them for more things.

How is it an evolution when you can't edit players, equipment, or play other games on the schedule whereas previous Maddens you could?

Terrible news this.....as a champion of the cpu v cpu cause and also the "play any game from any side's schedule" question I ask every year for every game this is disastrous.

This will totally remove the immersion within a franchise...as others have said, you can't watch any other game from that week and also if you don't make it all the way to the superbowl well the post season is going to blow when you're just shown who has won - we want what we've had for all time, the ability to watch/play any game from any side's schedule including the playoffs.....

Disaster....no purchase for me based on this......I suspect it will also be the same for NHL 13, a franchise that removed the ability to watch any game some time ago - I thought it might return this year but that looks doubtful based on this news.

At least this option is still available in NCAA 13....but, total despair for Madden, it really is.

Ridiculous.
