EA Access Gives You Just Six Hours Of Madden NFL 15 Gameplay

[Retropyro]

You are different than me. I'm a sports fan so I already purchased Fifa and Madden. I also purcahsed Battlefield because it was one of the few good launch games. So the only game I was getting was Peggle.

Even with their future games, I already have UFC. I plan to buy Madden and Fifa again. So the only games they could put in the vault that I would want would be NHL and Dragon Age but that wont be until 2015.

So the early access was the main reason I subscribed for a month.

I already own the games too. So I sold my discs for Madden, BF4 & FIFA. Got enough for them when the beta started to pay for a year (which gave me those games back) plus pretty much cover Madden 15.

This was never advertised to be like Season Ticket nor is it a sports game exclusive program. They also said "trials" which pretty much let you know that you would not have 5 days of unlimited access. Hell I figured it would be 2 hours.

Seems like the people who are defending EA access don't understand that the one complaining don't care about the games in the vault,discounts or all that other stuff.

Oh well. With my hectic family life, I don't know how much more I could play a day anyways (1.2 hours).

Re: EA Access Gives You Just Six Hours Of Madden NFL 15 Gameplay

The problem people here are having trouble understanding, is that you can pay just $5 and this is not a Sports exclusive feature. You get access to vault games, %10 off Madden 15 and everything applies to non sports games as well.

Look at it from my perspective. At this time the only game in the vault that would interest me would be BF4. Thats a game I already sold because it was a broken mess. Games constantly dropping online, tough to actually get into a game. Campaign kept resetting. I dont doubt it was fixed in a patch but its still only 1 game that I could probably buy for $20-$30. Also Madden 15 cost me $41.03 from bestbuy with GCU and using a $10 reward certificate so 10% off Madden meant nothing to me. What was pulling me in was thinking I would get 5 days of full access to sports titles. Im a sports gaming junkie just like 95% of members of this website. That got cut down to 6 hours, theres no value for me and alot of other people at this time.

4 titles that will be obsolete within 4 months, discount on already inflated DLC for stuff that really doesn't do much for sports titles (coins)? 6 hours of gameplay, when you were expecting 5 days worth of action? Terrible execution.

Season Ticket, got you 4 games 3 days early, some people don't like waiting. So for 6 bucks a title you got the game 3 days before most of the community.

A free demo is more valuable to me, than 6 hours of gameplay, last years' games (which I already had) and DLC that I never purchase. . .

If you expected 5 full days then you were not paying attention. When they used words and phrases like "trial" and "limited time".

For $5 you get 10% off Madden and any digital content you buy in a month, and 6 hours of early access to the entire game. As well as free access to games like Peggle 2, Fifa 14, Battlefield 4.

People who do not think that is worth it are lying to themselves.

Then just pay the $5? You just saved 10% off Madden and didn't have to pay the $25 season ticket price.

I previously purchased 3 of those games. I dont buy digital games. I dont play ultimate team. 2 of those games have new versions that I will buy by the end of September making those two free games useless.

I understand,but just because you dont, doesnt mean others dont play it..It might be a bad value for you ,but great value for others.So to say its a bad value in general is dumb.

why do you keep referring to these games as free??? You are paying a subscription thus no subscription no games

Okay? But Season Ticket was already gone. Why are you comparing it to Season Ticket when Season Ticket was already eliminated?

It was (and still is with Season Ticket) only 3 days of full access but your point remains valid.

Re: EA Access Gives You Just Six Hours Of Madden NFL 15 Gameplay

All I can say is wow. I can understand 6 hours for a story centric game, but for a sports game? That's 4 maybe 5 games, not to mention loading screens and what not. This really isn't a good value of a product. And before anyone says anything yes I already have at least 2 of the free games and I don't care for soccer that much. I had a feeling something was up when I saw a monthly subscription as one of the payment options instead of just a year like season ticket was.

Why are people referring to the 3 day access with Season Ticket free? You have to pay $25...which to some is over half the price of Madden.
