Madden 25

[bucky]

As for the only thing you're asking for here, is the stupid values within owner mode that was complete shit before. You are mad cause a shit feature from the old mode isn't here? Really? It was there, but it was a shitty waste of time and meant very little. I get being pissed about no mini camp drills or whatever, but that shit? Come on.

Owner mode was much more than A SHIT FEATURE. I could list a whole shit load of stuff that you could not do in M13 that you could do in previous maddens. That's what I'm mad about. Thought you'd be SMART enough to understand that.

There's alot about this mode that pisses me the fuck off, lots I wish was different, but they said they'd throw down the foundation of a new mode for it and started with the basics....they delivered that. The basics in many cases are vastly superior to what we had before. If you stop ranting on OS with the other mindless Madden haters for just a moment and look at the game without anti-EA bias, you would see that truth.

They talk about NEW FOUNDATIONS for the future every 3 fing years. When they actually stop playing this game of removing, reintroducing, I'll believe it.

Why don't you wait until they announce what's coming in the 2nd version of this mode before you ask for them to tear it all down again? We asked them to rebuild the shit from scratch, they did, now you want them to scrap it and give us back the old one? Bloody ridiculous, I can't even believe I have to side with EA, but it's utterly retarded to read this type of shit. Give the mode a couple versions to see where it's going, much like you would give a pro coach more than a season to turn around a team.

I'm not asking for them to tear it down (except for that stupid arcade progression system), I'm asking them to stop tearing down/removing and reinventing/re-adding every other year.

This song and dance has been happening for a long time. I'm anxious to (in may) what they say they are doing to Connected Franchise. I'm also anxious to see (in August) if they F'd it up or are starting to do things right.

Can you read you dumb geezer? We're talking about price setting shit in your stadium that ultimately meant nothing, even you said yourself financials in Madden sucked, thus, a shit feature. Shutup.

Why do you think the fat Phil got fired? Then all of a sudden the long awaited physics and overhaul of modes comes after? Derp.

Cool.

Except, we were talking about OWNER/FRANCHISE MODE dipshit. Not just one aspect of it.

Every 3 fing years some fat F gets fired or leaves while we end up with a brand new 3 year plan. Just go back to telling people how dumb they are for being skeptical about backbreaker. Madden's got to prove to me before I start believing. Hopefully they do.

 

[BigBiss]

on the XP thing ... I do like the idea of developing players to play my teams style ... IE 3-4 , Pass/Rush focused o-linemen

Where was I? I commented on a particular feature, setting dumb prices for tickets and hot dogs. Fucking read.

Every 3 years? Frazier wasn't there a decade? Keep acting like you know what the fuck you are talking about.

You were bitching about people wanting Owner/Franchise mode back. Which encompasses much more than hot dog prices.

They had Ian, and this new group. Three different directions and leadership on one console gen.

No, I was bitching about morons wanting TWO fucking modes. Try again reading champion of the universe.

Ian wasn't under Phil was he? For fuck's sake, he was the executive producer for 14 fucking years, what don't you understand? Cummings, Ortiz, etc, all those asshats were below him. Stop being stupid.

 

[JimLeavy59]

Ian Cummings must suck some good dick that shithead should have been fired after M11.

 

[bucky]

Dude, I'm just blind with rage at EA/Tib for the past 8+ years (less with M12).

Ian, Ortiz, and the new crew had/have a heavy influence on the direction and development of Madden. Stop being stupid.

And I should be adding smiley's to every post.

No, he had nothing to do with the development of Madden.

You conceded a point, KG SCORES! :fuckyeah:

Don't act like you don't know corporate structure, they are senior's and report up to Phil. If you don't think he had the ability to mold and influence their goals/direction, you're bat shit crazy. If Phil decided the game needed physics, the game was getting physics...but that wasn't the case. Again, how can you not see the connection to the arrival of physics following his departure? Ian admittedly didn't want them, you think Phil couldn't have overruled that? Come the fuck on.

 

[TeflonDonny]

+1. I'm going to keep blindly raging on those tools until we get back what they took, plus greatly enhance them. I'm upset that they pissed away an entire console gen. I'll keep giving them a chance cause their the only chance we have.

Ortiz had a vision and took the game on one direction. Ian had a vision and took the game in another direction. This current group has a vision and taking the game in a whole new direction. So what, Phil has multiple personalities? The teams changed 3 times this gen and the direction changed 3 times.

Phil is also Jared from Subway so, check and mate.


You cannot prove or deny his involvement with "their" vision. If they were calling the shots, the shit was he doing? "Hi I'm the Exec producer, but my underlings call the shots and I can't stop them. :yao:"


He could have said to Ortiz, "We want to run with our online competitive players, come up with a plan"...then said to Ian "Ok now we want to appease the sim nerds on OS, make it happen". Their ideas...but he was the one giving direction.

 

[JimLeavy59]

I hope this game feels "alive" the past issues of Madden have felt dead to me, and its even more noticeable when playing games like NBA2K13 and MLB The Show. For some reason EA has yet to get Madden to that level even though they have more money and resources.

 

[FirstTimer]

Two playbooks out tonight right?

 

[bucky]

Who's Jared from Subway? Any relation to Eugenie or Beatrice from York.

 

[krulmichael]

Yes sir. Run Free playbook is supposed to be shown tonight on Sportsnation (8 PM EST) after the cover is announced. Not sure about the Infinity Engine 2.

 

[BigBiss]

so how much diffrent will these be from the stuff NCAA already has out?
