EA Staff (Retired)This was the first time in years that I didn't buy Madden, and only the second time since its inception. Have the Franchise and the Be-a-Player modes improved enough to warrant a purchase, or should I wait until the next title? And do they have plans on improving these modes for the next iteration?
Be prepared to spend real money, or:
-You’ll consistently lose to lower ranked CPU teams.
-Won’t have the slightest chance in PvP.
-Won’t win many “bonuses” because the traits are jacked with.
-Player abilities and traits for CPU are usually unrealistic.
-Missing items usually won’t be replaced.
-EA Advisors live overseas and are clueless.
-There are brief moments of enjoyment, followed by multitudes of anger.
-Learn the CPU algorithms after losing numerous times and it’s somewhat easier.
