Not sure if everyone's seen it by now but the video below is raw footage of Madden 13:

I don't think it's a finished product just yet but the commentary sounds awful right now, no fluidity at all.

Yeah you have to remember, what they show at E3 is probably builds that were done weeks before E3 so it's probably not all done yet. I know many people are mad that they removed Importing Draft Classes from NCAA and custom playbooks from Connected Careers.

Josh Looman said that they took it out because they want to work on it and make sure that before it goes back in it works perfectly. I agree with that, I mean the Imports would come in so randomly that you could never get an accurate draft class to replicate the real Draft projections. So I like that they are realizing that the Importing system is broken and are taking it out to fix it and make sure it works right.

The new engine looks nice making the gameplay great but the announcing was awful.

Most likely it was a build done just for E3 which means they would only give people a sneak peak at commentary and not the full look at what announcing is. I have heard that there is commentary that is better in post E3 builds.

Let's see.... basically they took everything away and made CC the main gimmick:

[left]Madden 13:[/left]

No full customization of rosters.
No Editing of players in CCM
No Import Draft Classes
No 32 team control
No Fantasy Draft
No offline co-op play
No custom playbooks
No playing games except those of the ONE team you select for CCM

[TheRavenouseD2008]

been thinking about it I might still get it , make myself a coach .

And we can't sim our whole mock offseason which is even worse.

[arnie_uk]

has it actually said you cant change rosters, ive watched alot of videos and it hasnt said that, im sure thats still there.

And for the record the reason they took out ncaa thing was to improve it and because they had greatly improved the draft class to match the real life one

[ThePurpleWall]

can i stop people from retiring for a few season's ?

You can use XP as a coach to decrease the chance of people retiring.

Go to Operation Sports Forums where it has been confirmed and you will see many people pissed off right now. Actually you also can not play any other game on the schedule other than yours. If your team isn't in the playoffs, it sims straight to the off-season, no option of letting you play it.

Did you click the link to the Operation Sports Fourms? Many people do play other teams games, but that is if you bothered to click the link when I was showing you evidence that I'm not the only one who plays other games besides the team I'm controlling.

I know it's something you don't do, but if people wanted to play other games within Franchise mode other than their own, they could. Again it was an [b]option[/b] not saying you had to do that. People are more upset that the option to do that was removed and feel EA is again limiting the USER, and feel that if your in an offline setting, that they should be able to have more user control over things. When other sports games are giving the user more control over things, EA is limiting them and telling us how to play the game their way and not our way which we should be able to do, again in an OFFLINE setting.

The only thing I know is that right now it's going downhill fast for EA...

This XP stuff reminds me of playing Pokemon when I was a kid. A Wild Peyton Manning has appeared! Go Ray Lewis! Ray Lewis used Tackle... Critical Hit! Peyton Manning uses Throw, lol. What's next, the players going to begin evolving.....

Tim Tebow is trying to learn Super Tebow Magic, but Tebow can't learn more than 4 moves, replace a move in order for Tebow to learn Super Tebow Magic? Delete Throw for Super Tebow Magic? Congrats! Tim Tebow forgot throw and has learned Super Tebow Magic!

[font=trebuchet ms,helvetica,sans-serif][i]In all seriousness, reading back through this thread, it sounds like this new crew is doing what the old crew failed to do. They gutted the game, broke it down to its core fundamentals. It actually looks like it might be playable. Buyable, on the other hand, that'll have to wait.[/i][/font]

My massive problem is having to rely on Donny Moore. The guy doesn't rate players correctly because he simply doesn't understand talent. He's so awful at his job it beggars belief.

After seeing all the stipulations and limitations they've added along with removing almost all of the Franchise features I can see me just editing my Madden 12 rosters.

Seriously, this is Madden 13, yet it has restrictions more fitting of Madden 93. They need to keep Role playing in RPGs. Taking a sports game and mashing it with a heavy RPG element with effectively no other option is just stupid.

Xbox users will need Gold to use anything other than default rosters in Career (Franchise) Mode now too.

No wonder EA has such a bad rep, people are fed up of the monopolising morons.
