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

It's a bad deal because what many believed they were buying was not what they actually purchased.

Key word "believed". People had a choice, they can wait and get full information since the game doesnt actually come out until the 26th or opt in based on their own expectations of "what they want". They did the latter, so the problems lies within each subscriber.

Okay? So you got over $20 off Madden 15. For $5 more which would be the price of EA Season Ticket, you can also get 6 hours of early game play.

Still not seeing how it's a bad deal. At all.

because for the last 8 years people have been able to get unlimited hours of early Madden gameplay for free through the demos.

You could go to Best Buy right now and trade in B4 and Fifa 14 for 43 bucks total and cover the cost of it and then some. Of course you could also use that money towards another game. I guess it's really what you value.

We're not talking about best buy trade ins, but EA Access. BB trade in's make sense, EA Access doesn't.

I love the I already knew stuff after the fact guy. That's very easy to say you know after it happens.

Most were basing this on the past. You ever heard of Season Ticket? It gave 3 full days of early access trail. It's not unreasonable to think this could have been similar.

So instead of just flat out reading what EA said EA Access included, they ignored it and just went with what Season Ticket (WHICH ONLY WORKS FOR SPORTS GAMES) had?

That doesn't sound very intelligent.

EA literally came out and said when it was announced that it was times access UP TO 5 days.



There was zero reason to assume otherwise other than people hoping it worked like Season Ticket.

No they said 5 days but, no less than 2 hours. They were vague in purpose

This just came out. What do you mean by second year?

This is just Season ticket with a spin on it. The vault is a nice idea but three last year sports titles isn't going to catch most peoples attention. BF4 is nice for people upgrading from 360 to x1, otherwise you already own it or don't want to play it.

They actually did pull a bait and switch after all, I'm shocked, and more importantly, I'm disappointed. Why on earth would they make such an awful decision so close to the release of two of their biggest titles(Madden and FIFA)

EA announced that Season Ticket would be eliminated for Next Gen consoles months ago.

This will be my last post as our debate has ran its course. Let me state AGAIN, I do not doubt Access offers a great deal. Its a tremendous deal. AT THIS TIME the only thing that would have interested me is the early access. The dicsounts dont interest me as I get 20% off new games at bestbuy. The games in the vault dont interest me. Will I subscribe one day ? if there are enough games in the vault I wanna play then yea.

UP TO 5 DAYS - is a heck of a lot higher than 6 HOURS lol.

The 5 days early, is accurate, the playing time, is what they held out on. 6 hours per day, and I'd be a bit happier, but its not so.

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

Then don't buy it? It's $5.

Or pay $5 and get 6 hours of early access. Completely optional.

People are really confused as to what a "deal" is.

I dont get what your issue is. People can complain about how this program isnt valuable or why I think EA's other program (Season Ticket) has greater value. You are acting like the news about Madden has been out for weeks...it hasnt. It was just announced this morning. So give people sometime to vent.

That's the point, they've gone from UNLIMITED FREE demos, to SIX HOURS PAID demos.

EA SPORTS dropped the ball again. SMH

Please someone show me where it said you get access for a full 5 days? Everything I read said up to 5 days early and no where did it say unlimited.
