Sound Off: Has the 'Closed' Nature of Connected Careers Turned You Away?

[blklightning]

No. They haven't taken away any features that I use. I'm more interested in stuff like the Twitter feed. I like my sports franchise modes to feel alive. Editing players and playing other teams' games doesn't do that for me.

This is fundamental to any "multi-player" gaming, i don't care if its xbox, nintendo or jenga....games were built to be played together. I'm all for people making online friends...but dont kill any ability to play with a real live human sitting by your side...nobody start on "play now games" or having two tvs xboxes, XBL etc because that's just silly.

Heaven forbid we want to play madden with family.

More time is gonna be spent adding in stuff we already had for future installments delaying what new features we could already be having by now. Thats my biggest pet peeve. Im still waiting until me and my friends are able to control the same team...r heck a spectator mode r something.

I think that most of us can agree that including Skip Bayless in any form, is subtraction by addition.

Answering the question, yes, the complete lack of player control over CC has changed me from a first day purchase based on the amazing gameplay upgrades, and the better presentation, to waiting for Madden 14. I don't want to use EA's rosters in my franchise, and I don't really play the game much outside of it other than to play some friends head to head.(I never play sports games online)

If they would give the ability to edit things and control all the teams(call it GM/Commish mode or something), even if they had to switch it off for online by default, that would bring back a large amount of good will.

Cooled me down a bunch. The lack of draft classes is still the worse for me.

It's a downer, but still can't wait to play it though to see what it offers.

[TreyIM2]

Uhh, no...

[JayD]

Nope, I like the direction it is going and people need to stop freaking out being that it's only year one of this completely new format.
