Post CBA in Madden 12?

[JayD]

So once the dust finally settles and football is back are the rules within the CBA going to be implemented into Madden 12?

Now I know that all of these aren't necessary to the game but here are a few that need to make it in this year or next, salary cap, draft rules, free agency, for example.

DRAFT/FREE AGENCY SYSTEM

* An annual Draft of seven rounds plus compensatory picks for teams which lose free agents.
* Unrestricted free agency for players after four accrued seasons; restricted free agency for players with three accrued seasons.

ENTRY LEVEL COMPENSATION SYSTEM
New entry-level compensation system including the following elements:

* All drafted players sign four-year contracts.
* Undrafted free agents sign three-year contracts.
* Maximum total compensation per draft class.

* Clubs have option to extend the contract of a first-round draftee for a fifth year, based on agreed-upon tender amounts.


ECONOMICS

* Salary cap plus benefits of $142.4 million per club in 2011 ($120.375 million for salary and bonus) and at least that amount in 2012 and 2013.

Yeah I realize that they all are not going to make it in, i just copied this from another site. I was mainly asking about the salary cap and the couple of draft rules, like players who are drafted sign 4 yr contracts. There I edited my post to just show the bigger aspects of the deal.

This isn't MLB The Show, EA isn't about a realistic franchise like it used to be.

Also, game is already probably getting final approval for Gold so unless its in an update it wont be in this years game.

I wanted to ask the same question, I read a month or two ago where the devs say, "a number 1 pick is going to cost you" but now after the new draft scale (which to be honest is about **** TIME) I honestly think Madden has time to and SHOULD add this in!

i hope hope hope that another reason Madden was pushed back a few weeks was to put this stuff into franchise mode

I would be shocked if any of the CBA stuff was in the game. The game is basically done at this point.

Because it's their JOB to improve the game every year? Its a $60 game and they want us to buy a new copy every year, so..........if they have the attitude of "we already made a few changes, that should be good enough this year" our dissatisfaction is going to be more and more evident on their bottom line.

Josh Looman already said nothing gets in this year, it is WAY too late. The game comes out in a month guys...

If they got any of this in the game I would be highly impressed with EA. but I doubt it. hopefully they can put a few of these in patches. Not that I care since I wont be picking up Madden 12 until the price drops under twenty dollars and the game receives positive reviews for their franchise improvements.

EA officially stated that it will not be possible to update the CBA for Madden 12 today on twitter:

Due to the new CBA being implemented so late in our development cycle, we were unable to include the new CBA rules in Madden NFL 12.

Others have been asking if we would be able to patch the new CBA rules in after launch...

Due to the complex nature of the new rules and the current structure of in-game data and AI, we're not able to patch in the new CBA rules.

Yeah it's way too late, but I hope they at least put this in to Madden 13.
