This year you'll just be fired.

keep your strippers out of my American football
No respect. Case better be rated at least 85.
lol
I guess I missed some drama the last few seasons! It's ok, guys. #1 defense is back!

Splat will give your DT play a run for its money.
Yeah, having the Redskins just as good as a 13-3 Saints team (even accounting for the suspensions) seems absurd.

Having the Falcons rated better than the Saints is also absurd, just trying to be a realist about these ratings.

Its probably that RGIII presence. Watch out nfc east!
HOORAY!
I doubt that it'll work, but let's dream for a second:
NCAA 13 rosters could be imported into Madden 13, making the drafts real and using real players (finally!).
Even better, we import the rosters from our NCAA 13 league, and FMT or Commisioner Me saves the rosters each year in order so that as our Madden dynasty advances, we can import the next rookie class from NCAA.
Would be God Tier

Wow that sucks. I'll never be able to figure out defense again.
Face it, you're the guy that sits at Papa Welli's feet asking for what I do on D, try to mimic it, and fail. It's why you went so hard at accusing me of cheating. I told you exactly what I was doing with my DL and LBs and you couldn't make it work. Proof is in the pudding from season 1 and 2 stats:
I take nothing away from you on offense but please fuck off when discussing D with me.
Look how defensive you get, I said nothing other than EA admitted the press was rigged and said dudes would finally beat it.
Why are you posting pictures of your "help the CPU DE get sacks" thing? I'm confused
If you're posting pictures, why don't you post the ones of the 30+ sack seasons, too? It's k, I got it
SIM LEAGUE
Next time DM drops you off in the trashcan, don't involve me in your sore behind
They've already said the importing draft classes is gone this year because of CC, but yeah, I've been dreaming of that myself since they brought dynasty and franchise online. It wouldn't work the way it's currently in the game since you import them after the season, but I could see them doing what College Hoops/NBA 2K used to do and have you import the class before the season starts. Or maybe let you do it at the beginning based on projections for scouting and after the season based on what happened during the college season.
I haven't really played DT in years.
Pretender!
Thats good since it will be banned in 13

When NCAA syncs up with Madden is when NCAA becomes 32 man.
Maybe we still have the same draft classes. :/
did you not see the numbers up there
Those DE's were played at DT

Oh great, now there is a hot route for your RB so that you can call a wheel route out of the backfield. That sound you heard was Bob and FMT spontaneously ejaculating into their pants. The rest of the HB hot routes are good additions though.
Also, no more out slant routes for WRs.

Out slants were the fades, right?
Trust me. I was here. I know what the problem is
Having went up against enough people that use DT, yes, user play is the main issue. Which was amplified by speedy DE's being manually controlled at that position.
Regardless, they way they are talking about ratings for guys out of position seems like it will kill atleast half of the issue. And ill follow behind luke to kill the other half of the problem if need be.

Saw that in a thread in gaming, didn't know if it was posted here

Y'all are scurred.
Anyways, shit I learned today:
When you're running an online franchise how we are (everyone's a coach):
Per the screenshots on the previous pages, you can turn off firings.
All progression is based on performance and meeting goals. Coaches have goals and players have goals. Even in coach mode, each single player has goals, and exp they earn that goes into their exp bucket. You can see a list of all your players, and all their buckets on a screen.
To progress a player, you spend the exp on a stat "package". This wasn't clear, but I'm assuming a package is more than one stat, but generally the better ones are more expensive: ie; easy to raise awareness. more expensive to raise tackle/hitpower, crazy expensive to raise speed. I think he said it gets more expensive the higher the values are (makes sense), and maybe a discount for younger players so that theres more progression in the first few years of a career. He also said that the physical attributes get tougher to raise the older a player is, which is pretty cool. Basically you might have to save up 3 seasons of exp to raise an older player's speed by one. Older players getting better at the mental part of the game, as opposed to getting faster all of a sudden. So it sounds like min/max grinding an all hitpower team would be counter productive.
Coach exp is spent in different places, with one of the examples giving you a boost to convincing your old vet QB to not retire after the season, and stuff like that.
All the ground contact detection is via physics now, which lets you roll over people, or go down earlier.
As mentioned earlier, auto-pilot is in, which is awesome.
What's also fucking awesome? If everyone hits ready after their game, the league will auto-advance without us needing to yell at the commish to log on. This is awesomeeeeee.
Minor notes from playing some more:
Saw a few more funny things from physics but nothing game breaking or super terrible.
The jam at the line on punter returns is much better, you have a bit more time to set up blockers now. Saw a number of kick returns out past the 30, as well.
Shit I didn't know and don't know if it's new or if I'm just dumb: There's 3 throw types? Tap for lob, hold through release for bullet, and hold for a bit but release before the throw for intermediate? Lob passed on screens/drags have also been revamped so they're not dumb looking floater passes, and you can run lobs on shorter routes now, instead of all bullet all the time for success.
I never really had trucking work, but I also never saw any huge pops from the hitstick, dunno what's going on there.
The linking to twitter is pretty cool. I think you can have a league feed that posts all results as they happen, as well as commish messages (ie: advancing @ 4pm or whatever).
Fantasy draft is cut from the league this year.
Saw some Kinect voice audible stuff demo'd. Seemed like it worked for shift/audibles/hotroutes etc all by player name ie: "Crabtree Streak", though I don't know how much use it'd get in practice.
I am so goddamn hyped now it's dumb.

No, it was literally just slants run towards the sidelines instead of in. It was probably too effective when some people ran them with TEs/slot receivers, but their reasoning for taking it out is because it just isn't a route that is run in real football.
This is cool. We need to do this.
I need to pipe INCARCERATEDLUKE into the game
will lessen wr picks too, no one really tried to exploit that in our league but it can be pretty annoying.
Hilarious that the giants had to win a superbowl just to be equal overall to the eagles.
2K5 is the JFK of games. Sorta ok at the time, died suddenly and remembered way more fondly than it deserves.
yeah, they ran out of timedude did i read that right
no fantasydraft whatsoever??
Other thing I forgot: connected careers has no microtransactions in it at all, you can't buy player upgrades.
