Accurate Rosters?

[SammyC14]

Does everyone think EA will have accurate rosters available for the game w out having to download new rosters? Many changes will be happening in the next week or so

It's unlikely, as the rosters are either already locked or will be in the coming days. Most, if not all FA transactions should be available with a release day roster update.

no accurate roster's release day but probably will be downloadable on release day.

Re: Accurate Rosters?

Yeah, I was just wondernig the same thing. My guess would be that there will be a roster patch within the first week after release. Another thought. Would the rookies even be in the game since the NFLPA was already before the draft? I wonder if the default rosters might just be last years final update until a patch is made.

Re: Accurate Rosters?

Game day roster patch is the most likley option.

The "box" release is probably done now, so they will wait two weeks, watch all the crazy FA moves and rookie signings then they have about 3 weeks to build patch.

Should be fine.

Of course the rookies are in the game...They've been showing screens of them in uniform (of course, with what may be inaccurate numbers for now) and it was established before the Draft that rookies would still be in Madden NFL 12.

Re: Accurate Rosters?

They should be the most inaccurate they've ever been on release day. They've finished working on it completely at this point. I would expect a more accurate downloadable roster available at launch, though.

Re: Accurate Rosters?

God what would have happened in Madden 95 days if the lockout happened then. what would we do without accurate rosters!

Re: Accurate Rosters?

Somebody better get the rating czar some coffee. He's gonna be busy as soon as moves start happening.

[RedZoneD25]

Re: Accurate Rosters?

He won't be extremely busy until Friday, when the moves become official.

Re: Accurate Rosters?

Try Wk 1 Regular Season or Wk2

or wait for after trading deadline.

but so hard for 100% accuarate since it changes minute by minute

especially with this Fa rush coming up.

The teams won't even have accurate rosters when Madden drops, I think they can have 90 this year (Madden 75) in the offseason, and teams will still be making cuts after Madden drops. The only way Madden could do it is if they launch with expanded (accurate) rosters for every team, and to be honest, with that many players moving around every week, I would not be upset if Madden was off a bit, I DO think a drop day update would be nice though
Edit: I just read CHI has cut their punter? He was my punter in last years dynasty until like 2018, things are so crazy in the NFL right now, I'm just hoping there will be an update patch around launch.
