That pissed me off too. I wanted to switch my 3-4 D to 4-3. I'm using the Chargers so I wanted to move my DE's to DT's and my OLB's to DE's. Also I picked up Alex Mack and wanted to move my center to LG. It's not like this does not happen in the nfl look at the Colts Freeny and Mathis were DE's in a 4-3 now LB's in the 3-4. Look at the Steelers Legursky plays G and C when Pouncey is out. I went to buy the game when I herd we would be able to edit guys. Befor that I rented it found I couldnt play offlline franchise the way it was and sent it back.

The sliders work guys, CPU play calling logic is better, fatigue and auto subs work. There are a few disappointments though. You can only select your teams uniforms and can't watch CPU vs CPU games. As one of Madden 13's harshest critics, I can tell you that this patch made a vast improvement. I only played one game, and may see differently after a few more, but right now... just WOW!

Not that I should give a crap,as it will go nowhere.But,what new exclusivity suit are you talking about?

quick question, is the play calling in ccm still different from play now after title update #3?

[Cavicchi]

The Depth Chart is still wacky with starters also as second string backups.

Same old coach mode with same results, such as Rodgers throwing ball over crossbar--and he was not trying for a field goal.

Man coverage still looks bad to me.

Freezing has occurred looking at Depth Chart--more than once.

Game sliders are not the same as in Play Now.

I can't return the game because it was purchased as a download. But, I am done playing/wasting my time with it.

From my experience, yes. Did a quick play now yesterday with the Lions (Me) vs. Packers (CPU) with 15 min quarters, normal speed. After the first quarter, the Packers ran 11 running plays and only 7 passes with them leading 3-0. I get the complete opposite result vs pass heavy teams in Online CCM.

Anyone know how to download the new patch? my system didn't do it automatically and now the game freezes every time during the loading screen before the game.

Game is better the one thing I do like is that the physics are more like the demo. No more pinball garbage like after the second patch. Could not stand all of the (this game is tightened up talk) Game plays better but is not at the lvl of fifa or 2k. Little things hold the game back.

Late game ai has been pretty good for me and pass heavy teams are playing well. Hope this game keeps my interest for a few months. With fifa and 2k don't know if it will. Sucks it took so long for the patch. Overall think they did a good job with it though and feel madden is on the road to recovery.
