    Re: Madden NFL 13 Online Fantasy Drafts Are on the Way

    How quickly tunes change around here..

    When M13 first came out, there was an uproar about the lack of fantasy draft, it was plainly stated that it wouldn't be possible and we moved on. Complained, but moved on. Now, EA has come through with something a lot of people complained about and OS is still pissed off.

    If you want to rag on EA when they do something wrong (which I'm all for), give them credit when they do something right. Remember, this is our game, we all wanted MORE features.

      Congrats to all those who wanted fantasy draft. As an offline player this means nothing to me and im sure many other offline players have felt neglected by M13.

      I'll never understand the logic behind taking something out like coop franchise when so many people play that way and have ever since it's conception. Must we be forced to keep up with the times and be subjected to interacting with friends solely behind our headsets?? I've seen older players of this game imploring them to put it back in cause its the old school way. I'm 23 and I choose to play the oldschool way and only that way, I hate the direction this game is going streamlining everything to online. Show some substance and loyalty EA.

      Again, i'm happy for those who want this. One thing that baffles me though are the people saying "give them a break, they're obviously thinking about us and are working hard by putting these things back in"
      Well its hard for me to cut EA any slack when its a feature that has been in the games for years, they take it out, theres an uproar and then they put it back in. If they left important things alone there wouldn't be so much distaste for this game.
      I'll give them credit when they put something in the game that significantly improves the game for offline and online people and that wasn't stripped from the last installment. So yeah, to me, this effort isn't too impressive. Nothing will be overly impressive until they show some loyalty to the offline crowd that have helped with the success in sales for so many years.

          Sadly i knew this would happen, give them what they want and then people still complain, if anything i guess its mostly Offline that arent happy (and i understand that) but can we build a balance comment policy so we dont go around in circle forever with 'hate on ea' here 24/7?

            we arent happy because stuff like cpu running in ccm is still broken

            we arent happy because we thought that the removal of fantasy was in order to improve***************** it, not just put in the same fantasy draft as before. but hey, maybe im the crazy one who thought we'd get that type of logic we got from say nba 2k when it came to fantasy drafts, I was wrong, but it doesnt mean I cant be upset about it

            til they fix ccm run game, there is no "addition" that makes sense to me

              Your first mistake is assuming that there is a "we" here. There is no we. Just a bunch of different factions of people with different priorities.

              I was someone who edited a lot of things in franchise mode. But I didn't do it because I liked to. I truly didn't like to. It forced me to focus alot of attention on other teams, and I lost the sense of being immersed in the team I was actually interested in controlling. I did it because I felt it was necessary. So when they announced there was no editing in CCM, I was concerned and somewhat relieved at the same time. I figured, as long as the cpu ai manages its team properly, and plays a decent game of football I'm fine with that. Now I can devout all my time to my team.

              That didn't work out so well.

                  Good news for anyone that cares about this i guess. Hasn't this been in every madden for the past ten years??? Now they add something that they took away from us which we have always had and giving it back to us and where suppose to jump up and down. I really wish they would get on the other issues that really bugging this game. Pretty disappointed in this I thought it was gonna be groundbreaking instead same feature we had already in past. nothing on the zoom cam issue very nice. With all the issues in the game I can't believe there going to take another feature on they seem like over there heads now

                    I'm wondering how this is going to mess with the scripted tweets.

                      No matter what you add, CCM is unplayable until you fix teams getting 100 plays a game and Chad Henne winning MVP while some HB rushes for 4,000 yards.

                      Still waiting for actual fixes.

                        That didn't work out so well.

                        So no, I didn't need more features - I just needed what was implemented to work properly. Especially if you're going to take away features.

                        They should be building about the prior years version with more and more features each year. Not constantly taking out and reimplementing them.
                        Most other years you would be correct, but this year they decided to rip out all the modes and start fresh. They bit off a little more than they could chew with trying to perfect this new CCM mode and have the infinity engine all at the same time. They didn't remove the features you like, they just did poor time management and planning and wasn't able to get them in before the game had to go live.

                        They should have just release IE and saved the new CCM for next year, but they promised the community for a franchise upgrade for 2013. It didn't turn out to be a complete upgrade but once they get back all the features the previous modes had, it will be amazing.

                        You need to stop thinking about yourself and start looking at the big picture and how it's gonna turn out. No one forced you to get the game this year and all of the features that were left out were stated a good amount of months before the release. This year took a little side step from 12 and for some a back step, but give it time to grow and you will be thanking the Tiburon later once they finally perfect Madden football on this next gen console...

                        ...and then have to move on to the newer consoles, but that's a whole nother story all together. I don't foresee the first few years on the newer consoles being that great.

                            This is okay news for online players who want fantasy draft, but I really preferred editing players over this plus I want to play offline but since offline seems to be in worse shape than online ccm I have to play online which sucks since if you get kicked offline for any reason you lose the game stats...congrats to the online players and tough luck for the offline gamers because we don't benefit from this what so ever. I'm not sure I'll see this game last much longer in my home.

                              Ya I agree try and get the higher trade in value and just pick up three months later if things are fixed that's what I might do. To many good games coming to care about the average ones and waste my time.

                                Middle of the night? Worth staying up a few hours for?
