You took those as people saying the Bug is ok? Reach more.

So, because all games have bugs, you are ok with the franchise mode not working and are content with waiting a month to play it? How many other products work in this way?

But MUT, well, they keep adding and improving MUT. I'm done with Madden. Not buying anymore until I see major improvements but I doubt that will ever happen. So sad.

I don't think it's a lesson to be learned. I enjoy football, I enjoy watching it on Saturday's (Michigan!) and I enjoy it on Sundays. Because of this I have a high tolerance for games that may not be perfect but are fun to play. This is why, year in and out I purchase madden. Perhaps I am a sheep or maybe I am a huge fan of this dumb sport and am incapable of ever being athletic enough to play it, so I enjoy the video game aspect each year.

So all day yesterday theyre trying to shove it in people's faces about how good of reviews the game is getting and now come out and say this? What a joke! I'm pretty sure the last time a Madden game was released and didnt a patch to make the game fully playable was back on the PC! (Madden 2000) How can you release a game and then say well you might not want to play the biggest feature in our game until we get a patch out?! ...Never fails...

How much did they change MUT this year? And how much did they change CFM this year? MUT=0 Change, none whatsoever. While there was a list of things changed to CFM. Let me list it for you, combine results, new draft watchlist, ENTIRELY new scouting system, ability to give money to owners, reset confidence, drive goals. Here is what changed that the SIM community asked for. I'll bold them for you. 5 of the 7 things I listed there were things that the SIM community wanted that got added to CFM in this cycle.

I am not waiting a month to play it. You my friend have a choice to play it as is and enjoy it or wait a month or however long it takes for the issues to be resolved. These are choices you get to make, I choose to play the game as is and enjoy it for what it is, an imperfect game that is enjoyable.

Great cliche. All I am asking is that why is it OK for a product to be released without working the way it is intended to, meanwhile people are ok with it and apologizing for it?

No one is ok with it, nor is anyone apologizing for it. Clearly given this statement and your previous post giving "examples", you're confused.
