I got it 4 days early up here (dunno when it came out in other areas). When it comes to Madden, yall know I get it early regardless cause its my shit.
Game is pretty sick though, hits and breaking through tackles is much more fun. Running/kick returns are much easier. The AI is about 100 times better than Madden 12.
Shit still freezes sometimes though, gets ya boy raging especially when I didnt save my franchise shit.
Oh and Owner mode is amazing. Trades are kinda difficult to make, but that's w.e too. It can be worked around.
All in all, must by for people who have ever played madden. This years version will blow you away. I will take all questions as I did last year.

I do play online when it comes out for everyone (because stats reset).
Right now I'm just trying everything.

I went to the store to try to pre-order and they had no preorder deal.
So I was about to dip until the guy asked me if I wanted the game now.
Safe to say, I bought it on the spot.
They fixed some of them. Audio is still a bit messed at times and I recently sacked a qb who lay on top of my guys, got up and completed a pass. But they fixed the goaline stuff from what I've seen and AI looks good.
Word from the demo (I only played a half) it looked like the tackling and breaking tackles actualy regressed?
I was tired tho
idk.
Tuesday.
Running is a lot easier Meth
Word noticed that.
I was Green Bay and I was running all over Seattle? That shouldn't happen.

From 12 to 13, I completely agree.
Gameplay this year feels much different.
Trust, the demo won't do the gameplay justice. The catching AI, running AI, tackling AI...all look much much better.
Plus Meth , you were probably playing it on pro which is the default in the demo. Play on all Madden and you won't gain shit. But running is a good deal easier.
TBH, first time a Madden game has lived up to the hype for me since like 2006 when they had the vision cone, lol.
Gameplay from 12 to 13 was so much smoother I thought it was a huge jump.
And word I was playing on pro. I forgot to change it. or does it let you? Ionno.

I'm not sure, I didn't play the demo much.
I didn't find much of a difference in AI between 12 and 13, tbh. Smoother gameplay, maybe...

12 did not have physics engine, therefore you would just bounce off your o-line, also rocket catching & nano blitzing was 'Gayer', in 12' you were able to face catch as well as long as your reciever 6'2-6'5, another thing you would be able to stack your people in the box in 12 but in 13 if you tried to stack your player would move back into his right position.
Phuck Yew those were mostly all 'cheese' plays that online players would use ALL THE FUCKING TIME to win. That's why there were removed/fixed
oh and. I said fuck the early digital copy. I only trust physical copies so I can wait another day.

You know who I fucking hate?
Brodrick Bunkley.
To get rid of this dude (60 overall in my scheme and it seems everyone elses), I have to give people picks.
And if I cut him, I save 750 K but it costs me 8 mill.
Fucking asshole.
Worrrrdddddddddd............
You switch to what, a tampa 2 or somethin'?

Change the whole scheme.
Said fuck Rob Ryan's 3-4 and put it back to a 4-3. That allowed me to trade Jonathan Vilma for James Jones (who 2nd game in would completely tear his ACL). Made my DT position scheme "Nose Tackle" so it focuses on strength and tackling (although Bunkley sucks in every fucking scheme I try). Changed the offense to westcoast from vertical. Starting Vaccaro over Harper (OBV).
Still can't trade Harper, Coleman or Wil Smith though. :(
I love Harper but he's just not cut out for the safety spot.
He's a line backer stuck in a safety's body.
Yeah Will Smith is making to much money + age no way you could get more value trading him than just letting him play.
and u can change the whole scheme now?
dont remember being able to do that in 13
and yeah obv dont need vilma when switching to 4-3.
So who you got in the OLB's?
Obv Lofton in the middle.
