Do you have the game? CCM is like franchise. And the question about controlling 32 teams has been answered at least 3 times. You can only control 1 team. 4 players can play on one team I believe.

The first part is a yes from what I understand. After the patch, we'll be able to create a QB, RB, or whoever and put him on a team... then start a connected careers as a head coach and that guy will be on the selected team to play with.

Finally!!

So does this mean I can create players, put 'em on a team and play with them in Connected Careers? Is coach Mode like old Franchise Mode where I play as a team, select plays, run the play myself, do off-season management, etc? These modes can be confusing, you know? :-)

Finally, can I control all 32 teams? No one has answered this question in the entire thread and it's been asked twice.

for the 109th time yes you can create multiple players for coach mode, "custom rosters" --DUH

and if you use and existing coach you can already control all 32 teams now...

But does this fix where you can't trade anymore? It says "Fixed an issue where after declining a trade offer, you are no longer able to accept or decline another offer." Does that me it will be fixed?

[lon515]

They didn't fix assisted tackles, injuries, replay highlights in CCM user vs user, no transactions list, stats on CCM (when looking at whole NFL), and wind glitch when kicking FGs (goes opposite direction). These were the main things I wanted to see get fixed. Amazing. We are in the playoffs in our league and injuries are STILL resetting! And no, I just can't turn on pre-existing injuries because it WONT ALLOW ME!

they cant fix assisted tackles in 13 its a conflict between the infinity engine and the animations, i dont know what you mean when you say stats but i see all the stats i need. the preexisting injuries work for me so your problem who knows... they fix all these problems and you still find ways to put them down.. ungrateful i wish they never did this cause people already bought it , why fix if people are just going to complain

They've been mysteriously quiet on this. In most cases, no news is NOT good news, but I'm remaining optimistic. But I've asked this question on Twitter along with RudyJuly (and others I'm sure), and it's yet to be responded to.

After my self imposed "hoopla" period wound down, I'm disappointed that 32 team control didn't return...

I personally only have two remaining issues:

1) CPU Run / Pass splits in played games

2) The sim engine

I'd be fine with them fixing those two issues or giving me the control over the 32 teams coach philosophy section that would make it possible for me to fix them myself...

Then again, currently there's really no Coach Philosophy dashboard / section, so the former might be more possible than the latter...

Anyway:

I'm okay with the patch list...it's quite impressive...

I just hope that these two remaining issues are addressed, if not this year...certainly for 14...

Who ever was complaining about the Bears pants, I feel your pain. Washington has worn their gold nike pants several times this year, yet they are not in the game. I doubt there will be anymore uniform fixes this year sadly. Sucks for fans of teams that have inaccurate uniforms.

I agree with you but don't you think if EA did a little more testing before releasing the game they could have found out how to get it to work and then add it before finalizing the game?

you think testing happens in like 5 mins, it not a easy as you make it seem. i had a few games i uploaded to xbox live inde games so i can relate a lil bit but its not easy

im in year 10 all games played. all ways been able to trade,

No need for the "duh" comment, son. When it comes to EA's games (especially Madden) you have to be specific and detailed about a question. "Custom" could just mean a roster used after trades and stuff. It may NOT include created players. Which is why I asked.

Now since I don't have the game yet and you do, tell me this: If I'm playing CCM and I see moves made by another team such as benching Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers by the CPU for a rookie QB that they drafted, can I instantly go to that team and edit their roster?

Thanks, Andy! This is how you answer a question and help others in a forum.

I don't know the inner working of Tibouran.

Anything beyond that is pure speculation.

Anything beyond that is pure speculation.

I'll speculate that what happened with M13 is similar to what happened with many games these days. I speculate that Tiburon was pressed into releasing the game 'as is' and 'fix it later', per the suits.

I further speculate that this happens with more frequency in this console generation (and generations to come) because games get bigger, fancier, and much more code-heavy than the games of yesteryear.

At any rate, that's my guess.

Thanks again for the patch! Hope it works as advertised.
