No mention to see if they fixed auto subs for online franchises. It was rare that backups came in, it sort of took away the purpose of them.


Are we running a coach league or owner league this year?

Where you guys buying game. Where's cheapest?

I've ordered mine from Gamesnash.ie the last couple of years (got GTA V off them too). Always a very good service, I received my game from them on release day and it's easier than having to pop into town for it where often game stores don't have much stock of Madden in and I might get unlucky on the day and have to go home empty-handed.

As Heli mentioned above, they did us a deal last year which resulted in getting it a couple of euro cheaper than elsewhere (it was €52.99, Gamestop etc were charging €59.99 for it in their stores from what I experienced) and they threw in a cool footballer 8GB memory stick into the order which has come in handy and served me well over the past year too.

I'm sure Pat, the Boards rep, will pop in when he gets Heli's PM, but I'll be using Gamesnash anyway provided they're stocking it (I can't see it on their website as of yet).

i hope they improved stadium choices for rebuilding or relocatining, all fans wanted the same stadium built in different citys and name choices werent great or uniforms,

Detailed look at Connected Franchise from the developers/designers. The quality of the video is not that good, though my internet connection might be to blame for me saying that!

FFS, the Madden demo has been scrapped for all except those with EA Access and it won't be available for them until a week before the game is released.

That's really disappointing.

We'll all still buy it, but I wonder if they're trying to hide something?

helimachoptor

Yeah it really baffles me, it sounds like they made a major mistake in some way and are scrambling to fix it

Can't believe they scrapped the demo, such a disappointment. I'll be getting a review copy of Madden so at least I'll have it earlier than you peasants

Only since recently. I'm working at balls.ie and the PR company who handle EA Sports send us games to review for them, my FIFA 15 preview went up today and its the first one I've done.

I read that earlier and never knew it was you who wrote it. Fair play mate, it's a niece piece of work and an enjoyable read. Did you travel over to meet with Sebastian?

RE: the Madden review. Since EA are giving a review copy early, do you feel you will be under pressure to give the game a good review and/or not put too much emphasis on any negatives that arise regardless of how it plays? I've noticed from reading other early reviews that they mostly tend to do this as they appear not to want to "bite the hand that feeds them" for want of a better phrase.

Presume you are also just doing the cob one version mikey?

Thanks man. Yeah I got to go over for a day trip to EA Guildford last month to play FIFA 15 and interview Sebastian. Was class.

With the likes of Madden I won't be doing much, maybe a quick review. EA Sponsor us as well so we don't want to be trashing their games, but thankfully so far on next gen I wouldn't need to. But I couldn't go into the detail I went into on FIFA with Madden because our reader base just wouldnt be interested.

Xbox One? If thats what you meant then yes, don't have a PS4 yet so only have Xbox One version and have heard nothing on the 360 version, but I never play my 360 anymore anyway.

There's more and more videos creeping up on YouTube of Madden 15 now.

The Game Changer guys also got their games before the weekend and the Season Ticket is out in the USA on Thursday so we should know virtually everything by this time next week.

Gamesnash did us a deal last year so will pm him and see what he can do but imagine if you have a game or a few you'll save more money that way

I did that last month. Then I checked the profile and Pat hasn't been on boards in a few months so the pm was never read

I never got around to emailing their customer service email

helimachoptor

Yeah I seen that, will send the wife to the shop!
