Early Access to Madden NFL 15 is Working For EA Access Subscribers

03:33 PM - August 21, 2014 by Steve_OS

Microsoft has resolved the Madden NFL 15 early access issue for EA Access subscribers. For some odd reason, users were able to download it, but couldn't actually play the game.

Exclusive to Xbox One users, EA Access subscribers get six hours of gameplay. So make sure you close out of the app when it's not in use. The timer starts when you start the game and pauses when you exit and close the app.

Yes, but you have to wait until Tuesday.

This screen shot is very very interesting. In a nutshell its telling you that you can use a different gamer tag and get an additional 6 hours. You'll of course have to pay an addition $5, but this could possibly be something to keep in the back of your mind.

Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking.

If there are two profiles on the same console with Xbox Live access, it would probably be possible to play for 6 hours with each profile on the same console, for a total of 12 hours. Of course, we would have to get the EA Access with both profiles.

If someone try it, it would be interesting to know if it really works.

I guess I always assumed that was the case. Why wouldn't it be? Hypothetically, you could use a bunch of 48 xbox live cards and pay 5 bucks for 6 hours.

You would have to pay for xbox live on the other profiles too tho.

That's a console wide issue. Pretty safe to assume it'll recur here.

lol, yup. You smellin what im steppin in?

# 53 B1MM3R @ 08/21/14 05:16 PM

I'm not paying $5 more for something Iv'e already paid for lol. They shouldn't put a limit on a non beatable game, but they did so I'll use my 6 hours and move on haha.

Just got the message saying make sure you own the game. It was working like 30 min ago wtf!

# 55 HoundsOfHowl @ 08/21/14 05:24 PM

Don't close out the Madden, or you can't play it anymore. Pictures are all over twitter. Search EA access and you'll see. Mines locked out now, played for 20 minutes, quit and came back and it wont work.
