Same dude... i hate online playing as im not north american which makes me delay (lag) + online is **** as the game without tweaked sliders are **** and the glitches which can be used by online players are just lol...
So all year im into franchise mode , i bought the game week ago and im happy how gameplay works with tweaked sliders (though its so terrible with default ones its even unplayable) though there are many things to work on , its way better than in madden 10 or 09, so i was like "ok now if franchise mode will be something good this year im out of my mind" and what do i see ? 100% Completely the same franchise as year ago and im like "yeah , its ea,would be too good if they actually made me go crazy about how good this game is for offline use" ...

You can also see the strategy is to go "Full Online" gaming. All the new features are geared towards that along with all the new ways to charge on top of the $60 price tag. I wonder if the Madden name was not attached, how/what would this game do?

I don't hate the dev's of this series, I hate the corporate greed that's ruining/hindering these guy's talents and abilities.

Ok guys, no warnings issued yet, because this is your ONLY one. Talk about the feature, not how EA has ruined your marriage/life/job/dinner.

...I'm trying to interject some humor there, but seriously it's a video game...

This does seem like a cool feature, but until they add some D , and get rid of money plays/ and plays that never works...seems unnecessary.

i've been scouted 1 play in 25 games online.....this isnt a feature people are using. Make it completely free or do away with it.

Use the time and resources to improve something people care about...let's say hmmmmmmm FRANCHISE.

Does it really matter. Do I really need to spend money to know the person I'm playing online is only running 3 plays. Pitch. Screen. Crossing route. Since you can't tackle two of those three plays are unstoppable.

doesn't do much good if your guys can't tackle anybody.....or cover anybody for that matter. if i find something that works, i go no-huddle until it stops working. that kinda counters the effectiveness of scouting reports.
