Accelerated Clock Issue. Is it still in M13?

[cp22]

One of the really annoying things to me in Madden is the accelerated clock stops running after the 2 minute warning. This is bad for two reasons;

1) It eliminates the 2 minute drill. There is no need to rush to the line and spike the ball, there is no urgency with timeouts. All you need to do is click two buttons in 2 seconds and you magically have the offense set up and ready to go.

2) It makes games that are too far out of reach drag on. If someone is up 21-0 and are trying to run out the clock, they have to wait the full two minutes which is just incredibly boring. Let the accelerated clock run and these games will mercifully end quicker.

I distinctively remember someone from the Madden team last year saying they tried to get it into Madden 12 but did not have enough time. So does anyone know if this has FINALLY been put into Madden 13?

I agree it should run in the last 2 minutes of each half as well. And hopefully this year you can actually set the accelerated clock to the amount you want this year in ccm. Last year it only worked properly in play now. Since they aren't putting features in ccm until they work perfectly like they should then I am assuming it will work this year.

Accelerated clock settings are changeable in CCM this year, but the accelerated clock does not affect the 2 minute drill like usual.

Saw this info posted by a Game Changer in a thread last week.

That's terrible news. They promised this would be in madden 13.

Where did they promise that?

I'm pretty sure they promised that the option to change to accelerated clock would be in CCM, not that you could change whether it would work during the final two minutes of each half.

They can't do that? The tourney guys and arcade people would hate that.

I'm passing on M13 for several reasons. Now I can add another since I forgot about that one.

What immersion....

A developer posted it in one of these threads last year. I'll try to find it but I definitely remember seeing it.

Technically he never officially "promised" it but he said he'd do everything in his power to make it happen. Another let down.

Re: Accelerated Clock Issue. Is it still in M13?

This thread is Exhibit A for why developers should never say squat about any feature being put back in for the next version of a game. Don't say, "We'll try to get it in", "There's a possibility", "We'll do everything in our power" is a definite no, no. The slightest inclination that you may do it, turns into an ironclad guarantee.

Best to just be quiet and let folks apply the "lazy", or "hiding something" tag on you, instead of the "liar" label.

At least he was being honest with us.

Guess house rules are gonna have to state "use of no huddle is forbidden" again this year. Sucks we gotta have house rules to make the game realistic.

Wait what? Why would no huddle be forbidden?
