Another Week With No Madden 10 Roster Update

by
Posted December 3rd, 2009 at 12:10 pm

Yet another week will go by without a roster update for Madden 10. The next update will be arriving on Friday December 11th. That makes it now only two updates in the last seven weeks and will make for the second consecutive three week break. Considering the way things have been going and the upcoming holidays one has to wonder if the next to come won’t end up being the last until the playoffs. As I discussed in this article the roster updates have really taken a turn for the worse this year.

    What can you really say about madden. one of the better years for the game and we dont have consistent roster updates, no patch and its week 11 already, just what a shame.

    This is the by far the best Madden **VISUALLY** that they have ever made. That being said, the lack of committment by the staff on this game is ridiculous. Biggest waste of $60 ever. There are so many little flaws in this game that kill the entire experience. Don't expect any major improvements with the *Upcoming Patch*. The only thing we can hope for the best when madden 11 comes out. The NFL really needs to cancel their contract with EA.

    So no roster update in 3 weeks ONCE AGAIN.. and they still dont have a patch out that they have been working on for almost 3 MONTHS?? WHAT HAVE THEY BEEN DOING?! SERIOUSLY?!?

    • http://intensedebate.com/people/Halosniper52 Halosniper52

      madden 11 my guess. They say "Fuck you" to us time to get working hard on Madden 11 so they can make more money from a shit game. That is just to damn easy, and NOT realistic.

        You must be kidding!

        • kaezyd

          Agrees leo…MW2 was very dissappointing to me. MW1 was a great stride in CoD gaming. But MW2 is basically the same thing. just some short and not very good story, same multiplayer jsut a few new weapons/perks. and then all in all i dont even want to buy it…doesnt interestme the least bit

          • http://intensedebate.com/people/djaran djaran

            I aM glad the 4.7 million 1st day buyers of the game diagrees. When the 1st game is the game of the year yu dont change much on the sequel but the story……WOW.

    what the fuck are the guys at ea doing all they have to do is get a roster update every week and for a patch to come out. How hard is it to do the watch the games nfl network has games cut down to an hour so even if its just one person doing it thats 16 hours for watching the games and 2 hours for doing the updates. So your saying they cant do 18 hours of work in a week.

    FUCK THE ROSTER UPDATES PASTA! WHO GIVES A SHIT? WHERE'S THE 2ND PATCH? IF RATINGS DON'T MATTER IN THIS GAME THEN WHAT THE HELL IS THE POINT OF UPDATING RATINGS? GIVE ME A BREAK WITH THESE WEEKLY ROSTER UPDATE SUGGESTIONS PLEASE! FIX THE GAME 1ST!

    • blondeviking64

      you make it sound like pasta can just magically do it somehow. As if he can stand over donny moore's shoulder and be like do it now. Its like Pasta is the god of madden, and your praying to him to get something. You needed to bring a sacrifice. All pasta is trying to do is keep people up to date on sports games and try to sell and expand his brand.

    this game has so many fucking exploits is unreal. i was ranked highly in madden, probably the highest ranked player who doesnt play like a little bitch but this game(online) has been ruined. no one plays cool anymore so. i would rather not play at all then play like a bitch. thanks ea for making all thses cheats and exploits FUCK U EA!!!!

    • Big Daddy

      5150–amen, bro. I've played football through highschool, I got a pretty high football IQ. I always have a high completion percentage, rarely throw pics, stop the run, etc. Had a lot of fun playing Madden on the original xbox (back when Madden had competition, and back when Madden was in its heyday). Back then, the biggest difference maker was your football IQ.

      Nowadays? Not even close. By a long shot. Case in point–one of my roomates is an international student from India. Never even started following football till he came to the US. With current gen madden the way it is set up, I started noticing that my Indian roomate started "figuring out the glitches" and all the pussy shit plays that these nerds online "figure out". I quit playing the game because of this shit. I used to dominate this guy and now I can't remember the last time I beat him! Unstoppable offense off of plays that I see coming, know are coming, yet bullshit plays keep on workin….

    I think the idea is to drive sales initially and get good word of mouth then stop spending money for a game thats already maxed out its earning potential. Just take the team/guy that does the updates and work on the next Madden.

    so is the patch going to come out next week as well? I hope it does. I'm tired of waiting for this patch. The patch better be worth the wait, because I just want the patch.

    • Guest

      They've been draggin you along for 3 months…it aint happenin, bro. This is a perfect example of what protectionism is all about, only there is little risk for ea because they have no competition. A microcosm of socialism, if you will. This model never works, however–look at GM (with respect to protectionism). You can also look at the tariffs enforced by the current adminstration on Chinese auto parts. Perfect analogies.

  • Mr. Klue

    Ahahahahahaha!!! I can't believe you guys really bought in to the hype that EA creates with Madden each year. Don't be surprised when then do what they did last year and say "Well we were making the patch but now we're just gonna can that and focus on next years game." Stop buying that bullshit and force the NFL to reneg on that deal!!! I mean come on yall!!! It's been five years and they still haven't made a game better than Madden 2005 or NFL 2k5! Who's ass do I have to kick to get an owner mode (like Madden 05) and the ability to prepare for each game (like 2k5)? When's the last time you've ever been excited to score on madden? I still cant even understand why they took every feature that was on 05 and canned it. No owner mode, no mini camp that actually trained your stick skills, good commentary, Tony Bruno radio show in owner mode etc. I'm done man guess I'll just grow up, have sex with my girlfriend and say f*ck sports video games, the disappointment from year to year is enough to drive a man crazy.

    • Mike

      Yea I'm with you bro. This whole "Next Gen" generation is turning out to be a waste for sports video games especially football oh which so happens to be the most popular sport in America! Thanx for ruining football EA.

    • blondeviking64

      Dude, no madden game has ever had good commentary. We cant even get good commentary on TV. What you mean is less annoying commentary. Im to the point where I think i want to kick collinsworth teeth in. My friends and I can all say his lines before he manages to get them out too

  • BCEAGLES

    Listen fellas, GIVE IT UP!!!!! Madden is dead! Boycott madden11!!!!

    Notice chiefs fans boycotted larry johnson forced the chiefs to cut him so he couldnt break the record.

    Notice browns fans boycotted the owner forced the owner to fire the inept gm and look for a winner in mike holmgren

    Notice redskins fans booed dan snyder forced snyder to make a first in season apperance and hes gonna fire vinny cerrato and jim zorn at the end of the season and hire a REAL GM.

    The moral of the story is if you guys want madden to be fixed, BOYCOTT and STOP buying the game, or you will continue to get the same BULL year in and year out.

    • blondeviking64

      HAHAHAHAHA. If you dont like the game Im all in favor of boycotting it in 2011. But any fan who thinks that LJ getting cut was about the record and not about a franchise in need of getting rid of disturbances and trying to rebuild with positive players and a positive image is dreaming. As long as the owners gets his money he doesnt care about the players or the fans. The NFL didnt become the US largest domestic industry simply by caring what some fans think about the players

    Only 1 problem. It's the only Football game out there, and we all want to play some NFL Football. I 100% agree with you but, until that NFL license is gone from EA we will all keep on buying.

    I agree Donny Moore should be fired.

    He doesn't fully understand real football, he can probably only name the big name players from every team and IMO that's not good enough.

      WHen nerds who've never played a down in their life make a sports game, this is what happens. It also opens the door for nerds to EXCEL at sports games as well with all the "hidden glitches" that are rampant throughout the game.

      • johnbob

        What's scarier is that one of the designers was a QB who won a national championship in college. They talked about it in one of the EA blogs. Maybe he designed the instruction manual or something, 'cuz if he spent more than 30 seconds with that POS without realizing that half the routes in the game are useless I don't even know what to say. Could be that the guy was a lot better at college football than he is at making videogames, or maybe the Ian/Donny failsquad just overpowered him with their sheer moronity.

    I do agree that the rosters aren't that important because your current franchise is not affected,it's cool though, but people got to stop complaining about this damn patch. It's amazing that they can actually get these updates done, considering the fact that they laid of 1500 people. Just enjoy the game the way it is until they release the patch. There are some cool things about the patch, such as the longed replays and more instant replays, but the game is working fine for me. But they really need to fix the banners, I get the Bengals history when I play the Chargers. O.o

      I love the younger generation, troll…very mature. Anyway, it's a video game, there's going to be flaws.I've never played a game where it hasen't glitched up on me.

Wow, do you take the time to memorize that crap, what the hell is timeshift tackling? Just play the game.

    Pretty sad… they have millions of loyal fans (for now at least) who would gladly do the updates themselves for free, if not fucking pay to have the job….

    What these idiots need to do is get some people… from each team or division who follows them closley… like myself…. i am a niner fan…

    each week i come here and post my thoughts on who deserves to go up and who needs to go down… i give 3 players who should go up… i also give 3 players who are under-performing….(Unlike some homers on here who say 15 guys who need to go up on there team) Its that easy… you get un-biased people who just want the game to reflect the players performence…
