Any word on when ea will release roster updates?

There was a roster update as soon as I popped it in last week that had all the recent transactions in it. (no Pryor or other supplemental draft stuff, but everything else)

Yeah it was, took me a second to remember that I did do that. It's all good, it just means we actually give a shit about the game. Unlike some other game that was recently released.

Another reason NCAA is a mess. If that happened to me during our Madden 10 league I'd be mad as hell.

Was hoping the Broncos would make some moves during the free agency but I guess I'll have to do most of the work.

Don't forget you can bilk CB out of at least a 2nd round pick for Dawkins.

Their Twitter account said that an updated roster with offseason transactions will be out by the time Season Pass users get the game this Friday.

Edit: BTW, when are the real NFL supposed to cut down their rosters?
Click to expand...
I believe the first cuts are on the 30th, second and final cuts are...September 3rd? I think.

I only bailed out last year because my 360 died and I was unemployed, thus unable to afford to repair it. We can't all parlay our fanboyism into steady, lucrative careers.

I didn't put you on the list because then I'd lose more respek points no matter where I put you. Turns out I lose either way!

Its not like I don't know I'm bottom tier. I haven't had a winning season since the Chargers were at the peak of over ratededness.

Any idea if the updates are for ranked games or if it's the online franchise roster updates? The former doesn't really do us any good.

I think I've missed the UberRookie Backs of the Madden series. Was Madden 11 as filled with them as 10 was?

Did we even play Madden 11 long enough to find out? How many seasons did we suffer through?

How "ridiculous nonsense I won't miss from Madden 11" time?

I love A) running five yards backwards to get around the coverage, then B) kicking in the afterburners on the sideline and blowing by the entire team thanks to their godawful pursuit angles. Reggie Bush's speed rating was 112.

hilarious. he is so fast that by the time he reaches the endzone there are no defenders in the picture

oh god everyone was doing that in Madden 11. That was one of the things that pushed me over the edge on that game. It was always run straight up then cut hard and slightly backwards in either direction which always led to success

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.

it wasn't a sure thing, but if you couldn't get downfield cleanly yourself on coverage it made it hard on you.

With Reggie Bush, it was very nearly a sure thing. In that online franchise--which lasted four weeks before everyone concluded the game would never be fixed--I was averaging (averaging!) three KR TDs per game.

(in about three dozen games of Madden 12, I've returned one kickoff for a touchdown, and the CPU has returned one on me)

lol L running. I never understood what DCX was talking about until I saw it first hand. That wasn't "strategy." It was a straight up exploit.

Well, it wasn't used on me in just kickoffs but in running plays as it prompted me to the draw it out. Yes it was an exploit but at the time the player was denying it and just try to brush it off as me being bad at tackling or just bad at football.

It's the worst kind of "exploit," too: one you can't govern or eliminate. You can't just say "you can't cut back or pop runs to the outside." The game was just fucking borked.

Nah, we never played for a title. Season I was in contention to have the BCS #2 seed I got passed during the last week by the CPU.

Just a wierd naming system on the video info. Guess it could mean "any" of the BCS games.


L Running was Madden 10. For some reason, I want to say DCX was yelling about it, because of Malley. I'm not 100% on that, though.

Nope, Malley was my dawg and he would never stupe to exploits.

It was against the Cowboys.
