What Madden NFL 13 Connected Careers Gives, Takes Away and Might Have (Kotaku)

What's good for the community is if said features work with new code of CCM. JF is right, this just keeps going around in circles and circles.

The development of the game keeps going around in circles. We've had 3 dev teams on this gen console and each trying to "set a foundation for the future".

If said features were implemented and buggy, not playable, are you telling me you would not be complaining like you are now and just be quiet and play the buggy game?

I want them to stop continually reinventing because that's what introduces the bugs. Next Gen console should have had ONE new foundation, not 3.

What new foundation was laid out last year that features were removed?

All those Franchise Enhancements have been thrown away. CC may have equivalents to some of the features, but the work put into last years Franchise is wasted. And all those omissions every one is complaining about are MISSING.

PROTAK was a new foundation. Locomotion. According to EA, Franchise was reworked last year. We have had a least 3 different New Foundations and directions on this console with 3 different dev teams and with you defending each one. What a waste of resources that so much time was spent on things that are not there anymore.

I wish they would've just kept the basic Franchise mode seperate and left that one in the game.

This is just not considering the offline multi-player Franchise players at all.

Given almost everyone who commented in the "Closed Nature" thread stated they're still buying t anywayhe game, the answer is obviously no.

TBH I think most people on here will buy the game

with you defending each one.

Incorrect statement.

Incorrect statement.

I take that back and apologize for it.

Maybe if CCM was designed around said features there wouldn't even be a discussion and both online and offline users would have a more robust game and thats the real issue here. Don't design by creating functional issues and if you've got two years to do it and you double your staff in year two and you still can't get it right there's some real issues that result in people voicing frustration.

Stop going around and around and just focus on going forward thats all people want.

FYI: This opinion is coming from someone that was previously a member of the strategic planning division of one of the biggest companies in the world. I've been a fan of this game for a long time and I'm not some random high school kid that can't think about anyone but himself.

Well said.

I don't have a clue what went on behind the production meetings.

Let's hope the easiest function to get back in is a release day patch, that might say a thing or two.

Bring back mini camp training games to improve your player. New games, more fun

I think almost all of us agree with progression in gameplay is #1 and I haven't read anything about being unhappy with the new engine including myself. This thread is only about the CCM mode and how its lack of current features has stripped many users of playing the game as they've done in the past.

Yep, I know that. Thanks. I see about 10 different threads on here talking about that. All I was saying was that for me, I'm happy with CCM because its addressing how I would like to play this game.

Like i said in another post...all this talk about editing/coding cnt be implemented or not having the "time" or being unable to add it into CC is because of "bugs" etc is BS because OBVIOUSLY its already implemented into CC when you first create a SS in CC..so the Coding/foundation of it is already installed in CC without ANY problems before you start your career! Cmon man...you mean to tell me you couldnt atleast give that option to ALL players before you click start on your CC??...

That is just bs my friend

Cool....I don't have any clue went on either and honestly I can only share my frustration basing it on ideal conditions also. I have no idea what level of resources were available and I have no idea what development goals initiated the decisions. All I know is that you need to set standards for what you'll expose your customers to and the never ending cycle of changes is just really confusing to say the least. The goal IMO should be to develop to the needs of your customer and when you exchange benefits/features it creates a lateral pattern of offerings and also creates inconsistent customer satisfaction.

If it isn't already in the mode, then there is nothing to "switch on"

Is it true that we can only save One cc at a time because I Usually save do a franchise with the eagles since they are my favorite team and I also do one with a scrub team.

No, as of now you can have an "unlimited"(in reality it is limited by your hard drive space) number of different CC's going on at once.

Every time I see her all I can think about is how awesome her hair is.

the color of her hair is impressive and gives her that unique look. She's got that girl next door but a freak behind closed doors look to her. And i LOVE the way she signs off and says, ESPN.
