This gives THEM the option to run an online dynasty from work or when they're away from the system.

    No one wants to be in the league with the Commish who's never online.

    Also, what if you play MORE THAN ONE game? Maybe I want to play Modern Warfare 3, but everyone in my dynasty is finishing up and ready to advance? Now, I don't have to switch games JUST to advance a dynasty, I can log in online and do it - and still recruit, Super-Sim my game if it's against a CPU.

    And let's be honest: Is 3 dollars REALLY a big deal? I mean, I assume everyone who does a OD won't get this, as probably the guys who want to be a really great Commish will, as will the working individual. But seriously, you can pay $3 for this, or 2 double cheeseburgers and a small fry.
    It's not questioning the feature, it's questioning the charge. And it doesn't make a huge difference what the charge is (outside of extremes on either end) it's more about the principle.

      Again if you want access to the full OD feature set. The complete list of things they added it will cost you $67 instead of $60. Period. We can sit here and pretend it's an add-on PC game or however you guys want to frame it. This isn't EA packaging NBA Jam with NBA Elite. This is them charging you $3 to advance your dynasty from your computer.



      Yes you sound very disappointed.
      you are ridiculous... its $7 dollars... if you cant afford $7 you surely can't afford the $60 to buy the game or the $300 to buy the console... so why are you here?

      the other guys are right, its not a must have to play the game. It's an add on feature. If you want the ability to advance the week from your pc or supersim games you pay for that service. You DONT have to have it that way and you can do all that on your console for free.

      Just because it's a feature for the game doesn't mean they have include it for free because it's a feature on convenience. Again you can do all this on your console for free. So for the convenience of you to play the game through your PC you have to pay $7 for the entire year. EA runs a business, why do you forget that. This feature is adding cost to the game's development. So either you pay the $67 right up front for a feature you may not use or you can pay the standard $60 and if you want to use the feature you pay for it.

      How do you not understand this? It's simple business practices that happen in other sectors of business other than the video game business and you're up in arms about a common practice now days.

        Man. RTG is going to be great to play. I'm going to love recreating a few of the NJ HS teams near me in TB and have my dual threat QB/FS. Or HB/LB go nuts on them. This year is a definite must buy for me. I haven't been this pleased with all the info for a few years now

          Technically,xbox users have to pay to do it from their console.

            And more than that, these particular features are going to require EA's ongoing costs to keep servers up and available to process the advance and the game sims, that goes beyond normal development costs which in my eyes justifies a small cost. That is what keeps me from getting up in arms over it, these features cost EA more than any in-console feature would have cost them.

              Who said I couldn't afford it? $7 isn't a lot of money, doesn't mean I want to spend it on micro-transactions for a game I already paid full price for.

              Again, obviously it's optional. Was never up for debate, no one ever said otherwise.

              True but games used to be that way, now they want to add a bunch of additional charges in. They push it further every year. That's my beef. They already have plans for a subscription based service in the future. (http://www.pastapadre.com/2011/04/22...iption-service) When will it end?

              It's not going to end until they find a point where the consumers as a whole won't tolerate it. Too bad we have people who not only tolerate it, but seemingly argue in favor of it.

              Just because something is common doesn't mean it's ok.

                  Yea IT is
                  I am from Jersey too. I wonder what they mean by local schools. Besides Rutgers, Syracuse, and Penn Colleges, Maryland, there arent many schools close too NJ. I always start off with a HB then QB. The only school I want to play for that is close to NJ is Rutgers. I never usually try to play for the best team anyway.
                  I am starting to think that we MIGHT be able to play dual positions in college too. I think we are getting skill points too.I think we would be able to edit our defensive ratings in HS. I would love to be a Slash type of players
                  I dont know if alot of you knew, but in previous years in RTG the team you selected as your favorite team when you start off, you used there playbook in HS. So it didnt matter if you was a Option QB, if your fav team was TTech you would use there playbook. So if we are able to play for a TB team, I would love to use a Custom Playbook for my RTG HS season

                    They're returning a lot of their starters on defense and have Trent Richardson. They are going to be GOOD. I'm picking them to win the NC.

                        I plan on starting as a OC. But, I already had plans on what Defense I wanted to run and will make a Custom Playbook. I hope we can give suggestions on what scheme we want to have. I had plans on make a Multi-Def playbook with mainly 3-4, 4-3,3-3-5, and Quarter.
                        you don't have to worry about that because you can edit all coaches meaning whatever the game gives you for assistants you can make them both fat guys in suits wearing visors who coach the same as you do
