If you can't enjoy a game because of a sleeve, then you have bigger problems and should go see a life counselor.

Man, I would mess up the patch on purpose for crappy consumers who moan and groan all the time about things that are petty.

If you want to have the prefect video game that suits "you", then go learn to be a game developer and make it. Come back when you're done and tell me how easy it was. Wait until you've planned the game, then listened to a million consumers tell you how they want it, develop it, then tell me if you were able to satisfy more than 30% of the market, if so, then you're a genius.

It's not just a sleeve. Try moving a left guard over to right guard. Change a number so that it matches the correct Real Life number on a newly signed or traded DT.
Change the #16, a retired number on the Chiefs, of the new rookie QB.

Now, go play with that DT and it literally looks like Ted Ginn Jr is playing the position.

These are BROKEN ASPECTS of a newly implemented feature.

Your argument is ridiculous and has no merit to it. People PAID for a functioning product. This creates a broken function that directly impacts game play in their HIGHLY touted new feature mode.

I feel also, that they tweaked the physics. My players are now doing things I haven't seen since the Demo.

For example, running the ball between two defenders, Alfred Morris dragged one of the defenders. Maybe I am just seeing things, but the physics of the game feel much closer to the demo.

This is a great thing!

I have no faith that this will be fixed. Josh was given a list of draft players that have the wrong skin color compared to their picture and this still hasnt been fixed and that was with the information given to him. They should ashamed of the way they put out stuff without testing it first or they should start paying us since we seem to be the testers.

I think there are too many broken things in this game they can't fix it all. So they have to take like the top 10 or so. It is what it is.

All I would have been happy with is having stuff that worked last year in this years game, like late game CPU AI, team specific sounds, cpu uniform select, etc.. etc.... I know they started over but the way they designed this game, it seems all disorganized. From what I hear, 3 teams developed 3 different parts of the game all separately. Then they tried to put it all together and it just didnt mesh. Maybe next year they build the game with some better collaboration between all 3 dev teams.

Dont come on here and be a dick to me because i want what they said they were gonna have. The patch is causing problems. How am I a crappy consumer for wanting what was said to be working to work. Your an ***

2K5 seemed to please a lot of its customers back in its hay day. So by your logic, maybe 2K is better at producing a sports game than EA. The point is this: we all payed upwards of 60 dollars for this game. All I ask is that I be able to do the small, but still fun things, that we were able to do in ALL THE PREVIOUS Maddens that we, for some odd reason, can't in this one. (Or at least because if i edit a 320 lbs offensive lineman, it then makes him look like starvin marvin off south park) The new physics engine is AMAZING. Kudos to EA for that. But c'mon man!!! It looks like my girlfriend is out lead blocking for me on run plays, oh wait no. That's just Nick Mangold, but since I edited his helmet to a REVO speed, he now looks like a girl taking on LBs in the run game

Lol this thread is ridiculously funny! Get the patch and still complaints, smh.

I guess EA can quote Shaq at this point: "Consumers tell me how my butt taste".

Whats ridiculous is that when editing was out, there was no complaints on visuals, only complaints on not being able to edit visuals. Now that forlks can edit players it messes with the visuals. Makes me think that the developers of the game purposely left this out because they already knew the result. Gotta give the folks what they want so here it is, you can edit, but the guys you edit turn average built from what I hear. Since this does not seem to improve any gameplay and just cosmetic complaints, I think Im gonna skip this patch.

I editing some gear and didn't have a problem with skinny/big players after I did it. Perhaps it just has something to do with editing their body parts?

Re: Madden NFL 13 Title Update #3 Available Now, Post Your Impressions (360, PS3)

can anybody say if offline CCM now plays the same as play now and online CCM ? Can´t connect my box to the net regularly for another month or so...

Also, is there a way to convert your online CCM to be an offline one ?

[nekolas]

Re: Madden NFL 13 Title Update #3 Available Now, Post Your Impressions (360, PS3)

Did anyone check the CC practice XP? Is it only for player careers, or does it also work on the players you have in coach career?

edit: sorry if this was answered already, but tried to search the thread through on keyword 'practice', and couldnt find it answered

Re: Madden NFL 13 Title Update #3 Available Now, Post Your Impressions (360, PS3)

I read through the whole thread and didn't see an answer for this question:

If I start an Online CCM today will I be able to change offensive and defensive scheme on the 19th when it is available for Online or will I need to start a new online CCM on the 19th?

thanks!

Yeah I just completely lost hope. The fix of "editing players" just allows you to edit equipment, number, and college. Yet when you click to edit a player they front like you can edit Name, Age, Height, and Weight. Total BS.

I was hoping that I could edit these fake rookies and make them real life players in the first 4-5 seasons. Being forced to play with fake players is horrible.

Bring back importing draft classes. Not everyone cares about fake, cheesily named, scripted draft classes. CCM should have been it's own mode and franchise shouldve been left alone.

No, it is only editing Offensive and Defensive linemen.
You will notice the second you enter the editing screen in CCM that they will have ridiculously skinny arms. If you "accept and save" it will alter their body completely and so far what seems to be permanently in the current CCM, be it Coach or Player, and from what I gather, off and online.

The QBs and FBs get the same skinny/huge arm problem in the editing screen, but it is not permanent for those positions and just setting the arm size back to something reasonable seems to work just fine.

Every other position seems to be fine, but I didn't check the kickers because they are kickers.

[BonesKnows85]

I see so many off the wall names with the draft class rookies. They tried to hard to avoid using common names. Some of the names are just flat out insulting.

Everyone should've known. You can't edit anything that matters that will actually make the game more realistic. And the stuff you can edit messes players up. Go figure.

The game plays well enough for me to actually play Madden for the first time in 2 years, but the fake rookies just kills it for me because I follow college football too closely.

I don't understand why these people thing that any part of a sports game should be scripted. Sports games are not RPGs. But having these stupid, repetitive features like Twitter and Newsfeed means we have to play with fake rookies. No realism whatsoever.
