Yea from a technical stand point even if it did break previous features. Then the new addition should of been held out till it was working up the previous title standards.

It finally dawned on me how to clearly articulate why some gamers like me aren't as taken aback by being forced to try CCM "as is" initially. EA/Tiburon has been doing this with online play this ENTIRE console generation. I commented about QB Vision in another thread and someone strictly offline was saying how it was optional but not for online the first year. The majority, if not all, the options offline gamers are currently understandably disappointed about not being in CCM and MORE, have been repeatedly left out for online play. No slider sets, no player salaries, no CPU trade logic, one year we had to pay for All-Madden online ranked games, forced QB vision, blah, blah, blah.

I am reading these post where people are stating they can't believe EA/Tiburon would do something like this, when EA/Tiburon have been "doing something like this" to online gamers the entire time. I can't tell you of the number of posts, which I might should search for, when someone predominately an offline gamer would state "I don't care about online or online franchise, just improve offline" or "online franchise is the minority" in reply to threads and posts about equating or combining online/offline Franchise. Also with some offline gamers saying a flippant, "just don't play online then", year after year.

I don't mean to be a first class arsehole and I honestly do hope these options are added back but this seems like chickens coming home to roost. Maybe now that more Madden gamers get a chance to experience having frustrating limitations placed on how they have attempted to enjoy the game, we all can come together as a community to push for changes that benefit us all.

Ok then there can be an option for custom playbooks... Now where do they find time to do them right and put them in... That is the reason they aren't there.

They removed those features because they prioritized other features. They were creating CCM and did not feel editing, 32 team franchise and NCAA imports were important enough to feature them in the mode. They felt Twitter feeds, Trey Wingo and the XP system were more important and easier to implement. Im really having problem following your logic. Again the people who are praising CCM havent actually played CCM. They are praising what Looman and others have said about the mode. Now if in a few weeks we see videos and it confirms that improved AI logic and all of the things Looman says will work....those people will be justified in praising the mode. Why? Because they have proof that the mode works. The complainers are justified NOW. They know the mode doesnt have features they want. They know that those features wont be added to 13 (only editing is still up in the air). They know that even if the mode is great, they wont be able to play the game the way they wanted to and have in the past. They have every right to complain and let EA know that they want those features back.

Now stop it...JUST STOP DAMNIT!!!!.........................You're making too much sense man!

i really just want to know what adding a visor or changing gloves or cleats breaks in the game. if it really messes up the whole mode that doesnt give me a lot of hope for the future that this team is very competent.

Just reading through this thread it seams as if about 70% or more want these features and are upset. Then there about 20% who don't really care about editing options,etc but agree it stinks for people that want them and wouldn't mind the options returning.Then we have about 10% who would accept Madden anyway it came and every single version would be awesome. The only part bad about these people is that on top of that they actually feel it a must to defend the loss of features,etc like their games rep is on the line and it's up to them to save it.

^^^^ that's how I see it as well. Although I don't ever want to see stuff go away, that's kind of the standard for what I'm seeing.
