Seeing some reports of guys being able to hit the servers again. Keep in mind that we are still working on things on our end.

Except Facebook's business model relies on you coming back over and over and over again, while EA already has your money, and if you go away, all you do is relieve a little strain on their servers.

That's not true. They have their money... this year. What if next year they only sell 1/3rd of what they sold this year? Money talks and we, the consumer, are the voice. People need to stand united as one. I know it would suck not to have the game at midnight on release day. But would you rather keep treading down the same path over and over, year after year?

If EA wants this franchise to succeed, they need to step it the #### up. People are tired of the same crap every year. So we have an eagle that flies into the stadium, a tiger in a cage and barking dogs. We still have broken game-play and all the new features... Custom Playbooks... Coaching Carousel... Scrambling QB's... all are broken in some aspect.

It's ridiculous. And it's inexcusable.

I've played worse games, but I can honestly say that in 20 years of gaming I've never been more disappointed and frustrated with a game as much as this one.

And the thing that really makes me angry is why it's taking so long to fix this mess. I can't wait any longer because the trade-in value is decreasing and I want to get $33.75 from Amazon while I can.

If I wait another week or two to for the patch and it turns out to be another abomination, the trade-in value will have dropped another $10 or $15.

It's just the freaking principle. I feel cheated and ripped off. And lied to by a bunch of windbags who were all over the place bragging about this and that before the release. And now those same guys are nowhere to be found.
Somebody get this etched in stone. It's exactly right.

I know at least 10 people who used to be automatic NCAA buyers who no longer buy the game. That's just me... And I know 10 people who are done with it.

It's not like EA has nothing to lose by putting out broken products.
