Also I feel some posters may want to step back and read the no tolerance policy of this site.

What!? You're really killing it, EA. Let me hand it to you.

So glad I only did one month of EA access. It will not be renewed after that.

As someone who purchased the EA Access it is technically a fair deal the MAJOR error is how they failed to mention up front that you'd only be able to play Madden 15 for 6 hours. That would have changed people's perspective on it and they knew this. That is exactly why they waited about two weeks to even mention it was only a 6 hour deal. It only cost me $5 to play FIFA so it was well worth it but the way they went about it was terribly unprofessional/bad business. Think they ever heard of the Better Business Bureau?

When they said that you would be able to get a trial of new games before everyone else did, what did you think the word "trial" meant?

You feel bad for someone who was going to pay 30 bucks to get access to a game 5 days earlier? Lol.

Yes, who thought they were going to be able to play it the whole five days. You need to understand that most of the people here only brought it because of that reason.

I mean give us the 72 hours just like season ticket if not the full 5 days. But cmon man 6 hours ? Its so freaking mind boggling how they come up with these poor decisions 1 step forward, 3 steps back.

This is the best way to let them know the crap they're pulling. Really get it out there.

I thought the Season Pass was pretty successful; why change it??

Done. Is there anyone else we can get to perhaps at Microsoft?

MS wont really care. This is just another app on the One. EA will feel the pain if there are mass cancellations.

Don't know if this was asked. So after the 6hrs will you then be able to purchase the full version? Or you gotta wait until tuesday? If I have to wait, id rather go buy the disk.

Wait a second. I pay $30 a year and am able to access a library of games at my convenience, and I'm privileged to (while time limited) an early access to other EA games? And I should be upset?

How many times on these forums have we seen people selling their souls to gain a few days early release to some of these games? Some have paid 20 to 30% more than the game is worth.

It's $30 a year. I'll be enjoying Madden early. I won't even have to leave my couch, while some are traveling to neighboring states to get a boner over their early copy.

Season Ticket offered a "trial" and it was available for 3 days. It was safe for people to assume this would be similar.

As a company, do you think it is wise to give a consumer, who is not guaranteed to purchase your $60 game, 72 hours of access to your product?

This site does have an age limit, no? I mean I hope I'm speaking to adults here and not wasting my time imparting logic into this conversation.

You're paying $30 a month for this? Tell me more about this magical plan you've signed up for that is 3x the price of Netflix.

So a $30/year program that currently has 4 titles included and will add more in time while never removing any, plus discounts on game and DLC purchases is bad? I'd rather have this then pay $25 for Season Pass that only game 72 hour access for 5 games (now 4) and some DLC discounts.

More disappointed than outraged.

I've gotten my $30 pretty easily with the vault games and will be enjoying my 6 hours of Madden. Hope the feedback is deafening though and changes are made (while not consuming every conceivable thread even remotely related to it).

The Vault selection will have to significantly improve or early access terms change before re-upping, for sure, but no regrets about picking up the first year of the new service.

This is the appropriate reaction.
