Reason I ask is this. I remember watching/reading an interview on Madden 12 were a dev/employee stated that something along the lines of "it's your franchise, play it how you want to". The very next year we get CFM. In another interview for that game, a dev/employee stated that CFM was 2 years in the making. Which means they KNEW when they made Madden 12 that they were going to gut franchise, correct? This year we were told not a lot went into CFM (they weren't kidding!) due to Longshots and NBA Live and the pulling of resources. But then we learn Longshots was 4 years in the making. So I wonder, if resources were already being pulled/shared prior to this year and if that would explain the stagnant state of CFM over the past couple of years. If you can't speak about it, I understand, just asking. thx!

I'm not sure I am comfortable commenting on this as I don't have all the information to really add much. I can say as far as Live goes, the resource split was John. His time was split between the two games but I don't think development resources themselves were actually pulled.
