this game just isn't fun to play with teams like the Saints running the ball every down. the lions i think are the only team who play to their real life tendencies

Is there any info out there regarding formation subs? I am so tired of resetting my subs every single game.
thanks in advance

I've asked this question twice in this thread

then I guess we've pretty much gotten the answer. Ridiculous oversight.

Looks like supersim will still be broken which means playing as a player in ccm is untenable.

oh well.

Awesome news! I believe I will start a new offline ccm after this because of the custom rosters. I have a online ccm going but I don't see the benefit of playing online after this patch. Great job EA!

Emmdot or Dewiel;

Is the late half and end of game play calling of the AI been addressed? Running the ball when the AI is behind, AI calling a timeout at the 1:01 mark all the time, etc.....

Otherwise, nice job and good fixes.

It doesn't mean this at all. Real life tendencies were broken in Play Now so saying that franchise now plays like Play Now doesn't suggest this has been fixed at all. The details on slider fixes are vague as well. I am nowhere near as excited about this patch as some people are on this board. This question needs to be answered for me.

Yep. Fixing sliders in CCM and tendencies were the two biggest issues in the game IMO. They fixed the sliders in CCM but the tendencies are still up in the air. But let's be clear on this (again). The tendencies are fine in SIMMED games. That's why sim stats come out OK. It's only when playing games that the CPU runs and runs. Rarely (or never) will you get an aggressive passing attack where the CPU will throw over 40+ passes on 15 minute quarters.

This has been a very vocal feature that needed to be addressed so I don't think it got ignored. Especially considering the amount of people asking about it. This needs to be commented on.

Really glad to read the patch notes.

However, I still have two lingering questions and a major issue.

1) Will the CPU playcalling be more "team specific", ex. Saints throw, Packers throw, Pats throw, Ravens grind you, Bears grind you, etc. Also, late game AI. Has it been fixed quite simply?

2) Can we please select the CPU uniforms in CCM? The Chicago Bears have orange pants by default for goodness sake...

and that leads to my major issue, the art clean-up that is needed on the uniforms. KANE on these very forums has been communicating with Donny Moore and other EA reps, and he has a list of 78 uniform errors in this year's game alone! 78! Now obviously some are more minor than others. There are still glaring errors and omissions present though. The Panthers stripes on the Nike jerseys are reversed and cut off. The Bears don't have their Navy Blue Nike pants. The Giants missing stripes is finally mentioned as getting fixed, but what about some other uniforms that simply need fixing?

Not to sound ungrateful. Not at all. Just wish, whether through a roster update, or a tuner, or even DLC we could get the uniform errors corrected this year.

Re: Madden 13 Patch #3 details

Thanks. Sloyez? is going to lose his mind with excitement, lol.

Finally I true Coach Mode, this might be fun IF all the team management stuff in CCM gets fixed.

I sincerely state, GOOD JOB on this EA Tiburon.

So...I did have to change my panties half way thru reading the patch details...

You guys have no idea how torn I am between HC and M13 now though...now they both have an equal amount (okay i'm being slightly generous here but HEY doesn't it feel like Christmas?) of positives and negatives each side.

I do feel much better though that maybe even by M14, the HC offseason (is that not the best part of any football game made ever btw?) will be an integral part of the new Madden series. Like I said, I'm so torn, like which scouting process do I like better HC or M13? I dunno??? I love the Pro Days, and Individual workouts, but I love the POT being 86'd. I'm not sure how I feel about the development in M13 though, I think between playbook knowledge and practices HC still has the advantage there with individual player development.

But I digress, and I could go on for hours saying M13 is better with this but HC is better with this, but M13 is better at this and ... so on...

All I want is HC hidden inside the grooves of a Madden Blu-ray and well, color me tickled me elmo.

Re: Madden 13 Patch #3 details

What about the DB 45 degree angle glitch? That happened to me a couple of times and I also read it on an Amazon review for the game as well as saw it in a thread on this forum, so I know it wasn't just me. Anyway, I traded the game in already. But it's nice to see that they've addressed a lot of the concerns with this game.

Ravens, with the no-huddle, aren't as run-heavy as they used to be.

Otherwise, you bring up some good points and hopefully we get some clarification on at least a few of them.

Good point, substitute Jacksonville or Minnesota for Baltimore then.
