Madden NFL 13 Title Update #2 Arrives Tomorrow, Player Editing Still Being Explored

Re: Madden PATCH UPDATE #2 AVAILABLE TOMMOROW FOR XBOX AND PS3!!

Our "game changers" are amazing!

I continue to find shots like this over here hilarious to be honest. These guys come in and do nothing but represent the community and are always attacked by guys. We even bring guys into the program from The Sim Standard and then they're just called fan boys.

The truth is the group gives us great feedback and even finds items that never go mainstream or are addressed before launch. So many of the features that guys over here like this year have been impacted by the group.

I know this isn't the entire community as a whole, but too many guys spend time trying to tear guys down instead of remembering what community was/is about... providing feedback on our favorite games and finding like minded people to game with.

You don't have to take me for my word. I would say that everyone who has met me knows that I'm an honest straightforward person who wants the best out of our games. I hand pick the guys in the group and know they want the same thing as well. Take it for what it's worth. I just want to make sure guys have the real side of things and not something that is assumed.

I fired up an offline CCM just to test it out. Honestly, if they some how allow edit player (or some form of control)...I would forget about the old franchise mode I have been playing since 93. I have struggled to play past year 3 of my franchises for the past five years. With the additions in CCM I think I could be back to the 5+ year franchise. The gameplay/presentation is AWESOME (except for too many ints and the CPU non-running game) and is much improved.

But with my praise to the game, its collecting dust on my shelf. Been playing the only true franchise mode MLBtheShow! I maybe trading in Madden soon if edit roster is not added. Soon the only people online will be the kids who they are satisfying who have no money!

I hope late game ai/play calling/clock management is a fix. It ruins close games for me.

If they don't fix this, any other patching they do is pretty much pointless in my mind. So many close games in the NFL; to have them potentially ruined by poor AI is just...

*sigh*

Apparently major ai issues that destroys the game for a large percentage of their customers was not on their agenda. That should have been patch day 1. When major sports sites like Pastapadre complain about that issue, you would think they would listen. Now it appears we are going to have to wait even longer.

They get shots at them because they come off as just being company yes men. I know you, and they, will continue to state that this isn't the case; but their actions on the forum here reek of insincerity, especially when they continually come to game's defense when it has such obvious and glaring issues.

Then you are saying they caught that ai issue before the game shipped, meaning EA knew about the issue before the game shipped?

That's not fair, either, you can't lump them altogether. I know of at least one that posts here that was fair in their assessment of the game.

If you guys patch the zoom cam into CCM, can you change the angle to be more like Madden 10? The zoom cam this year is totally unplayable at that angle.

I wonder how they missed the no edit feature or the numerous bugs and glitches that are in the game? It befuddles me actually. Did EA deliberately do this or accidentally missed these?

Madden NFL 13 Title Update #2 will be available tomorrow on the Xbox 360 & PS3. The update includes a new instant start option when creating your player in Connected Careers, numerous stability fixes, and GameFace improvements.

We’d also like to remind fans who have been asking about the ability to edit players and rosters in Connected Careers that based on your feedback, the development team is currently exploring the potential option to include additional functionality in Madden NFL 13 in an upcoming title update. We’ll update you with more information in the coming weeks after the team has time to investigate and assess the situation.

Yeah, because why wouldn't it have occurred to them that taking out editing and fantasy draft would be missed? Who wouldn't want three linebackers with number 55 on the field at once?

[dezzy]

This is very disappointing...SMH NO PATCH FOR THE IDIOTIC COVERAGE SCREW UPS!??! I understand the the fixes for the connected careers etc but come on? I hate playing as a lb/db & the stupid coverage issues is forcing me and many others to play the game in a way we don't want/like to,& I've heard all the stupid smart mouthed comments like "stop hitting dwn on the stick at the snap" etc & to all those that feel that way I kindly say shut up,why should our way of playing the game get screwed up because of an oversight by EA?

I spend my time in practice and only playing online in leagues & quick matches so all these single player updates from the patch do nothing for me & I think that all of us hardcore online guys got screwed by having to wait longer...I'm not knocking the single player fixes at all but when I hear of the game face stuff being fixed while there's other pressing issues that's a problem to me.

Another of the many other dumb issues are when playing online I can't even select onside KO return?? Allowing people to constantly squib on me THAT'S RIDICULOUS EA! Or the screwed up jumbled mess that your play books turn into after creating a custom one?

I'm HUGE madden fan & 20+ yr vet,I bleed madden & always stand up for it/say it's my fav..but this crap is getting rlly old.

I'm no game developer but I know it shouldn't be taking till October or whenever to fix all these issues & get the game the way it's supposed to be in the first place because if that's the case why don't you just wait till oct to release every yr?

These issues didn't just happen,people have been playing the retail build even weeks before the season ticket early release & it's totally uncalled for & I'm upset.

Well franchise mode was introduced in 1998. Just saying.

We can agree to disagree. It's not worth your time or mine to argue this point. I sit in the room and hear the feedback. They're not yes men. These guys just provide the feedback in a constructive way. Any one who looks at Madden 12 compared to Madden 13 can see the improvements. Those guys have played a role in that. Sure, they were just as disappointed by some things not being in, but they also understand where we're going.
