      Already traded mine in.

      I can't deal with the UDFA stuff, kills franchise for me. In fact, the only reason why i buy sports games is for franchise.

      If they release a patch for it, i'll buy it again, until then, waiting to get 2k12 next friday.

        The fact that some UDFA's make it throught cuts is not the problem. It's that the CPU WILL CUT 1ST AND 2ND ROUND DRAFT PICKS TO KEEP UDFA'S IT THINKS HAVE TALENT. WHEN THEIR TRUE RATING TURNS OUT TO BE IN THE 40-50'S ONCE THE SEASON STARTS.

        That's the problem people. A & B potential important draft picks get cut in leiu of UDFA's.
        I can't disagree. I have 32 team control and had to reverse a few awful cuts the CPU made to keep some UFDA.

        Since I do use 32 team control I am managing my way through it. But it is a true royal pain in the arse to say the least.

        I love the game. It is no doubt my all time favorite Madden title ever made but it is by no means perfect and still has some glaring AI warts.

        I hope EA can improve the logic for 13 big time.

          It would be awesome if commentary now reacts correctly to plays, announce different players as key players, and PA announcer announces the actual players during the introductions!
          Have an awesome day!!

            I don't want to be that guy, but it's truly sad when it's "awesome" that basic fundamental features of a sports video game work as intended.

                Player editing is still too limited. At minimum, height, weight, age and skin tone need to be unlocked.

                With player editing in franchise mode being highlighted as one of the improvements to franchise mode, still not being able to edit the above-mentioned attributes after this patch is a major fail.

                  ADDITIONAL TITLE UPDATE #2 FIX: We also fixed the import draft class bug where kickers and punters were being drafted in the top 10.

                    That's great and all, but still no mention of how terrible the imported players look.

                      No kidding, players looking like TRANSFORMERS didnt get realized??? Disappointed overall, cpu offensive AI didnt get touched either I guess, same thing every year, the hype just leads to a bigger let down.

                        Worthless patch IMHO. What I really wanted was them to tune the defensive line play. Defensive tackles simply dominate and rack up 3 sacks per game getting relentless pressure while elite 4-3 DEs with high finesse moves are complete non-factors. I'm not even talking about getting sacks, I'm talking about getting pressure. Oh well, my expectations have dropped so low it doesn't even matter.

                          Where is the fix for pass interference? Why do these developers constantly ignore this problem for the passed 3 years? Unexcusable!!!

                            Really disappointed with the patch.

                            Transformer pads are ridiculous and needed to go. UDFA ruin the game. For starters like 60% of them have the pad glitch, not to mention insane equipment. And the FA pool is filled with really good young players.

                            by year 3, if I wanted I could sign vince young, cedric benson, ahmad bradshaw, mendenhal, sean lee, aj hawk, chris gamble, michael jenkins etc. for league minimum since they never get picked up.

                              I gotta concur with this. I had high hopes for this patch and I'm, frankly, let down by the gameplay content. There was a looooooonngg thread on the lack of DE pressure that couldn't have been missed. Year after year, this is the one thing I keep hoping Madden gets right. But looking at the way I've seen it done in other games, it's probably going to take a dedicated development cycle of redesigning it from scratch to get it where it should be.

                              Hopefully it's addressed in the tuner, along with one or two other things like accel clock in franchise, but who knows. Not fixing the accel. clock is a big one for thos of us that like 15 min quarters.

                                "The year of the franchise" has degenerated into A) you control all 32 teams because the cpu AI is non-existent, B) you don't care about realism/don't have the time, or C) Don't franchise at all.

                                With all the cool features they added it is a tragedy that it ended up like this. They seem to think the UDFA issue isn't even something that needs to be addressed but when it results in teams' marquee players rotting in FA obscurity THAT is a problem. And so on, and so on.
