Love the read-option play (shotgun 4WR). The game gets a little Incredible Crash Dummy-like with the Infinity Engine.

[quote=Mattyk;937239]Do you mean edit their positon, or just move them in the depth chart to a different spot?

For example Cooley is listed as a FB, but you can still play him at TE.[/quote]maybe they fixed the following logic:
*the last one i played was madden 11

rolb rated 84 ovr
if i move him to re on the [B]depth chart[/B], he's 90 ovr
but if i [B]edit his position[/B] to re, he's 96 ovr

so the benefit of editing his position was far greater than just editing the depth chart. also made more sense when trading, the trade partner is going to value his ovr rating - not his rating on the depth chart.

a lot of decent lbs made very good, even great des
a lot of good ots made great ogs or cs
a cb may make a better fs/ss or vice versa

ok yeah, don't think you can edit players at all this year

Re: Madden '13 player ratings
 

[quote=Mattyk;937320]ok yeah, don't think you can edit players at all this year[/quote]not even before you start a franchise? something simple, like moving cooley to te, then starting your franchise?

matty, i know you told me that they added the ability to structure contracts differently on madden 12, is it the same on 13?
also, could you trade future picks on 12? and can you do that on 13?

Re: Madden '13 player ratings
 

Not sure, I haven't gotten to the offseason yet

[quote=Mattyk;937342]Not sure, I haven't gotten to the offseason yet[/quote]ah, gotcha, but you could trade future picks on 12?

You can edit but from the main screen, not from connected careers.

probably end up w 3 or 4 players wearing the same jersey number a couple of seasons down the line.

Re: Madden '13 player ratings
 

Just out of curiosity is it possible to find a video of Madden 13 on Youtube without some jackass providing their own personal commentary? I swear all I wanted to see was gameplay footage and the whole first page featured videos where guys introduced themselves as 'my boy.'

You can't upload your own roster to CC mode either, you have to start CC mode with the default roster. I even downloaded the updated roster and started a new CC mode as a coach and it still used the main roster that came with the game.

They said that the new roster you can only use offline play now or online play now modes. The CC roster will be available tomorrow.

Seems like the endless bitching and moaning is paying off. Fantasy drafts and player editing should be on its way in.

Smart move on their part. It's too bad all the bitching and moaning has overshadowed the positives of the game.

I didn't miss either feature as much as some, but it will be nice to have them regardless.
