Re: Madden NFL 17 & Madden NFL Blitz | Online Services and Product Support Retiring

When I load up NFL Blitz on the Xbox 360 it attempts to retrieve the EA Terms and Conditions from the EA Server. It never succeeds though, so I can't play online. It seems the NFL Blitz server is already shut down. Turn that server back on so we at least have a chance to finish the game before December 7th, 2021.

    @repentanthades7 

    Are you able to load up a different EA Sports game from the Xbox store and accept the Terms of Conditions? I've seen this type of issue for NBA LIVE Jam and that can help get around it.

    @EA_Blueberry I don't own any other EA games for the Xbox 360 (that aren’t already shutdown themselves). I'm in the process of obtaining Madden NFL 17, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14, and FIFA 18 from a friend to see if any of those will work.

    @repentanthades7 Understandable. I know that some players have been able to download a demo/trial version of an EA sports game from the Xbox store.

    The servers should still be active though. Have you tried power cycling your console and network to see if that would have any effect on connecting?

    @EA_Blueberry Great news. I own SSX, so I downloaded it and accepted the terms and conditions. I then started NFL Blitz, it didn't try to download the T&C, and I was able to access the online aspects.
