I couldn't agree more. I really like what I have seen for this year, but some of the things they removed irk me. As others have said, we should be getting more features in a next gen release; not trading out old ones for new ones.

I can appreciate a reduced development cycle and am truly excited for a new football game. I just hope the differences we've seen in how the team communicates legacy issues ahead of release is a sign that things truly are changing. In a few years, we could have a great game, but this isn't the first year I've said that.
