If they give offline players the editing and draft classes, they want to give the same functionality to the online players. For whatever reason this couldn't happen so they proceeded without it. This doesn't mean that it wasn't possible or that it could not be implemented later, but with Madden's release schedule, they had to make some sacrifices. I absolutely need these offline options, I can't play Madden online. I have xbox live gold and would buy the game new if I REALLLLY wanted it bad enough. I simply can't play any Ea game online. In this case, I can't even get updated rosters. Those who can have one less obstacle to overcome or one less gripe, but there are many gamers in my situation (not necessarily exactly like my situation) who for whatever reason (no highspeed internet, no live gold) will absolutely need those missing features.

Well, I'm like you...play offline exclusively, even though I'm obviously with online capability, as I'm online in the forums. It's going to be rough for us.
