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

By NOT saying "Madden 15 early release will be limited to a 6 hour timed trial" they were being deceptive. Only vaguely Stating that "some" titles will be limited, fully knowing from the start which titles will be limited is deceptive. Im having a hard time understanding how you cant see that as deceptive

Even by vaguely stating some games would be limited (which is far from the truth since it was made pretty clear) you are still countering your point yourself as that doesn't negate Madden from being that title that is limited.

If they said that no sports title would be limited you would then have a point but they didn't.

PLAY FIRST

If you’re an EA Access member, you can download upcoming EA games five days before the release date to play for a limited time. Madden NFL 15, NHL 15, FIFA 15, NBA LIVE 15 and Dragon Age: Inquisition are all included, with more to come. If you love it, buy it, and you can pick up right where you left off.



I understand the anger, folks. But do not think that it is an excuse to flame on these boards.

That statement right there "to be played for a limited time" is verbage that the brains of the company put in there to save them selves. Its to vague to know exactly what they mean by that. It could mean, you can play for a limited of time, meaning not forever but up to the 5 days, or it could mean limited time as in 6 hours. EA isn't dumb. So when we the people complain about them not saying anything about time constraints, they can direct us to that very vague, read between the lines, interpret how you want statment

He said the games' playtime 'may' be limited, but said nothing concrete about Madden 15.

That's true, but you replied that you hadn't seen a mention of a limit of as low as two hours, when that information was available from day one. Everyone signing up for this service had to ability to see that games may only be available for as little as two hours.

BINGO! And this is why we shouldn't trust EA. They put in verbiage that covers them, yet so unclear they take our money before we understand they reached in our back pocket. (BUT, we continue to trust them, because we have no other recourse if we want certain games). i.e. Madden

I'm not happy, my man and I'm not alone. If vocalizing that I'm not happy and speaking truth is trolling to you, then you are biased. I'm just a longtime Madden player who wants to be treated fairly by the company that puts out the game that I've supported since 2001. I'm not being treated fairly because I bought EA Early Access before it was disclosed that playing Madden 15 would be limited to playing for 6 hours. The only reason to limit that time is if there is a fear that players could play the game out in 5 days. If that fear wasn't there, then there would be no such limitation.

Your saying your not trolling but, some things your saying as fact just aren't.

"The only reason to limit that time is if there is a fear that players could play the game out in 5 days. If that fear wasn't there, then there would be no such limitation"

To say "The only reason..." Is your opinion. Not fact. EA has shown no signs that they are afraid of letting a person play too long. There is gameplay everywhere. They seem like they are hiding less than ever.

That makes sense for a game you can beat, but it only makes sense for Madden if they think it can be played out by some over 5 days.

Yup. you may not be playing it personally, but they're sure showing you everything. And also, now that I ponder it... they haven't requested videos that people who have it early be taken down either. SO, in essence, all the requests people have had regarding everything about the game (even stuff that may be wrong and broken) EA's still letting be seen. So you can't complain their not hiding ANYTHING this year.

Well, canceling your sub is one thing, but to not pick the game up too? you're just hurting yourself.

Honestly, from the videos I've been watching, 6 hours may be all I need. Nothing groundbreaking, sim stats on career still broken... I'm not a MUT player, which why I'd assume they are limiting the access. They didn't want get flooded with people saying it's unfair people are able to build their UT 5 days early. Simple fix, block it like they did on 360. This blows too, I wanted to get the game being a Seahawks fan with Sherm on the cover, but I've been doing this dance for too long with EA and Madden. I seriously just may pass.

...but these players already have the full game. They are not buyers.


Players that have EA Early Access can still buy, or not buy, the game.


I've been in contact with some of the game's past developers, so I have a pretty accurate picture of how things work.

There you go, you're not a MUT player, so what difference does it make about that? The game looks great. (And according to Skyboxer), plays good too for once. Don't pass it up just because of this....

Clearly you don't. Quit saying things are fact that are just your opinion. It's not fact that the only reason for a time limit is as you say. Another poster just gave another reason. MUT being accessed for 5 days straight is unfair to some.

Your reason is your opinion. Not fact

AGAIN.... EA Access ISN'T just about M15. STOP connecting it to that. M15 was just one of the games there yes, but Access seems like a longer term deal with a lot more than just Madden. So.. come on.. just think about it.

Then, why didn't they just limit playing MUT to 6 hours? Why limit the other game modes other than out of fear that it can be played out?
