      Lol. U know, for some reason, I was stubborn as hell for the longest time. I would say to myself, 'I don't want to fix the game. That's the dev's job!' But, I think I started with NBA 2k, and was like, seriously, gotta boost at least the dunk attempts, because these goofy looking 1 ft hook shots from the under the rim by 7 ft centers is KILLING ME!! DUNK IT!! DUNK IT!! WHAT R U DOING??!! And, then, finally, I said, 'madden. I AM GOING TO MAKE U PLAY REAL FOOTBALL, DAMMIT!!' And, the rest is history. I don't think I'll ever play default sports games, either. Except FIFA, as I only play that online and it actually plays as well as it can out the box.

        This is the most excited I've ever been for a Madden release. The features sound great, but the one that really kicks it over the edge for me is being able to fully edit every player in my franchise at any time. I'm a control freak, and I'm also super nerdy when it comes to statistical analysis. I'll probably devise my own progression systems and spend countless hours frequently editing players.

          All that does is support that in the case of injuries, dev traits behave in a realistic manner within the XP/goal system but it's besides the point for when injuries aren't involved. In that case, it's unrealistic for a players dev trait/potential to diminish solely due to not meeting goals. Tom Brady, Steve Young and Willie Beaman are good real world examples, lol.

            Willie Beaman??!!! Lol. Yeah, he gained the superstar trait after puking on the field during the huddle! Lol. Awesome.

              I'm hoping this means that they've nearly doubled in size. If so, I think that could be an underrated addition and something that could add to scouting.

              It's going to be interesting to see how this plays out given the current state of goals. I think it's very possible depending on how much development is reliant on goals that there could be a lot of confusing regression and progression based on the current goals structure.

                logic also says FA pool should be larger as well

                  With 320 rookies and 2nd year players now signed to PSs that previously would have to be accommodated within the FA pool or be deleted this isn't necessarily the case
                  Would be very welcome tho 😉

                    I fully agree; the OS community adds so much to Madden gameplay through slider sets its really unbelievable.

                    I didn't mean to be a total downer. I actually agree the game play is the best yet, but the problems I mentioned were still not reparable by any slider set IMHO. Minimized .. Yes. Fixed to the point I am able to still be immersed in M16 now? No. And believe me when I say if they fix the glaring game play and CFM issues I could play Madden and pretty much only madden all year and be fine without other games...

                      I hear what you are saying, just two different opinions on the sliders. The sliders I used immersed enough to still be playing, I usually give up SB or before.

                      I'm just saying the slider set I used was better than minimizing, at least for me, except the deep ball over the middle and drag routes. I hear that is cleared up this year, we'll see, if it is, I'll be in game play nirvana.

                      Anyone's mileage can vary.

                        Yeah. My hope is we can edit dev traits though right? So if Newton gets injured for the year and they drop his dev trait (I hope that wouldn't do that) we could bump it back up

                          John White told me that Dev trait is editable.

                            Who's going to babe every player in the draft every time they change or start their career over? This isn't that good. It was better to make the roster editable for draft classes. Fail!

                              Me and I'm sure several others.

                              Just because you wouldn't, it does not discount those who would.

                                While I'm sure for some this is a cool feature, I don't see the point of having the editable rosters yet not allowing draft classes to be changed. I'm assuming it's the O'bannon issue, but I dont think us doing all of it from scratch would put them in any legal grey area.
