Re: Madden NFL 12 Title Update #2 Details Coming Soon
Yah. I have to say the team has really taken a step back as far as communication goes. I wish things were just a little more transparent. And if they can't be, I wish the title updates were a little more timely.
I wonder what the timeline for updates was last year? I think by this time, we had already had the 2nd patch plus the Breast Cancer Awareness DLC? IDK...Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Title Update #2 Details Coming Soon
Not trying to hate on the guy, but I think Ian was overrated as the lead designer. Certainly better than they guy he replaced, but he got way too much love for not really doing all that much with the game.
He lied several times about certain features, didnt actually know much about football, and let be honest, Madden 11 didnt improve on Madden 10 at all.
Maybe he was handcuffed by EA, and I do give him credit for making SOME progress with the game and interacting with us, but the game didnt improve all that much under him as people act like it did. The game was riddled with issues every year under him, although it wasnt all his fault.
I was complaining for a decade about lack of presentation, and Ian last year was the first one to really start bringing it in that regard. Will always appreciate his efforts because of that.Comment

Keep in mind the game was out earlier last year, so the patch came earlier was well.Yah. I have to say the team has really taken a step back as far as communication goes. I wish things were just a little more transparent. And if they can't be, I wish the title updates were a little more timely.

This year initial release was delayed by the union dispute.
I'm guessing an announcement the end of this week, followed by another ~2 weeks till actual release for 3 weeks total. And patch notes the same day as actual release.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Title Update #2 Details Coming Soon
I'm exaggerating here, but I think another 3 week wait would be a disaster. I mean, M12 is the best football game to come out of there in quite some time. With a little TLC, it can be a very enjoybable football game. But they've gotta support it.
Maybe they don't have intentions to have as many patches/DLC as M11 had, so they're trying to cover all the bases in one swoop.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Title Update #2 Details Coming Soon
Michael Young said in an interview which I recall was about two weeks ago we would hear something soon. Then last week EA tweeted about info coming soon... I mean In the context of a Video Game patch I don't equate soon to be longer than a week when in reference to information.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Title Update #2 Details Coming Soon
Madden: the only the video game I need a spreadsheet to track all the bugs and glitches so I take care of the problems at the appropriate times to minimize their effects (Ex. editing players at the end of seasons to not lose roles). Ridiculous please give us some idea what you are fixing, it is not that hard, EA you obviously have an idea, and more importantly you can add to the list (!).Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Title Update #2 Details Coming Soon
It's already a disaster. We're a quarter through the NFL season and haven't had one post-release patch (and let's not pretend that the release day patch was anything more than a gold release following an alpha build).I'm exaggerating here, but I think another 3 week wait would be a disaster. I mean, M12 is the best football game to come out of there in quite some time. With a little TLC, it can be a very enjoybable football game. But they've gotta support it.
Maybe they don't have intentions to have as many patches/DLC as M11 had, so they're trying to cover all the bases in one swoop.
The game as it stands is practically unplayable for me without maintaining multiple Excel spreadsheets and/or a database to run Franchise in a respectable manner.Comment

Kind of like the return of Jesus in the book of Revelation. By those standards, we as the United States of America will be extinct by the time this patch is released.Michael Young said in an interview which I recall was about two weeks ago we would hear something soon.

I'd just like to have an idea of when I can start my franchise lol... If the patch won't be addressing what I'd like to see tweaked, I'll just start now and grin and bear it through the deficiencies, but if they will be fixed I'll hold off, and if it's going to be a few weeks I'll use it to prepare even better methods for my franchise updates to be posted here.Comment
