Ok so I got a copy of this from MY GIRLFRIEND for an early valentine's gift.

I'm impressed enough with menu lag no longer being a thing that I'll start a league; if anyone wants to join, it's up to you. I know there's a few of us who have it. I'm gonna play it whether people join or not!

League : sasflps4
Password : Ask me in PM or on PSN - dubious (I'm no longer displaying PWs in posts because idiots keep trying to sneak into the PS3 league and cut half their team)
League Type: Owners only


Rules:

* We will be playing on All Pro Difficulty.
* Quarters will be 6 minutes with accelerated clock.
* Please try to limit cheese play. We can discuss it on a case by case basis, but lets not let it come to that.
* On the above, No Huddle is off-limits unless it's a real situation that dictates it (trying to come from behind with limited time in half/game).
* Once the season begins you are stuck with your team until the next pre-season. No jumping teams mid-season.

Free Agents:
No one take any FA until it's called for.

Trades:
Please discuss all trades in this thread and not through private messages. That way other team owners can weigh in on the fairness of trades as well as offer counter trades as well.
*CPU Trades - we allowed trading with the CPU last year, however it must be ran by the league and everyone must get a chance to weigh in to make sure it's reasonably fair.

Schedule:
The league will advance every 3 days, or when all User Games are in. If all games are in before that advance period we may advance, but to start off we'll go with 3 days. Please let Dubious know after the first day if you can't get a hold of your opponent and we will work from there. If everyone is done before hand he will advance early. If you are the last person we are waiting on then you have 24 hours. So if everyone is done in 12 hours except for 1 person then he has 1 day after that to finish up their week or Dubs will advance. If you are playing the CPU then we expect your game to be done within 48 hours unless you mention it here.

I was hoping someone would start a league for the PS4. I'd be in but I don't think there would be enough for a league. Regardless, we should play sometime.

awesome news! I'm in as the Jets. PSN: nasty-niss. Best way to contact me would be through this thread or PM. I'll join up tonight.

I've been doing the Xbox 360 Madden leagues for the past 4 years and even commished it for 2 seasons last year. As of right now my Madden 25 for PS4 is rapidly collecting dust so I'd love a reason to play it more often. Are we using end of season rosters?

Yeah, they are end of season. David Wilson was my third string HB with Jacobs as my starter.


Team Needs: Oline, mainly Tackles, will trade picks or a WR or a combo if it's a good player with a cap friendly contract.

Can I put dibs on the Bucs? I'll be getting a PS4 pretty soon (probably in a month or two)

We can do that whole $10 upgrade if you own a PS3 copy, right? If not, probably count me out, I'm not giving EA too much more than that for a menu lag fix. Maybe if I can find it used for cheap.

E: VVV :milk:

If enough people join I'll bite the bullet and pick this up for P4 as well.

Whatever team finished 9th overall in points scored in 1985 is the team i will be, I'll go look that up now.

This was their plan all along: You will buy Madden for PS3, get sick of the lag, and then purchase a $460 fix to a minor inconvenience. Sony and EA are in collusion for all of your dollars.

Honestly, there are a noticeable amount of minor gameplay tweaks that make it a better experience. It's obviously not :siren: next-gen :siren: but it's an improvement over the ps3 product.

I'm gonna cut Randy Moss because despite my nostalgia for those days, I have better and younger.

Anyone who joins up can take 1 FA when they claim their team.

I'm reserving Bucs for Wampa and Steelers for human being Guy.

I love Amazon so drat much. They had the best deal on the PS4 copy that I could find, only $40.

Or can I do that whole "$10 upgrade" thing if I bought my PS3 copy off of Amazon?

I think that deal expired or is only at select retailers. There were only a few games you could do the digital upgrade with at launch - AC4, BF4, CoD and Injustice.

Get one used, there's a bunch on amazon/craigslist for cheap, less than 30 bucks.

Smart idea, saved :10bux: by finding a used copy on Amazon. I don't give a gently caress if they redeemed the DLC already. Plus, this way, EA gets less money. :v:

If you order basically everything from Amazon (and you should), it is so so so worth it. Amazon is now just a replicator from Star Trek, but it can't make you a hot meal and it has a 1-2 day delay.

Also, I'm currently getting it for free cause I sponge off of my mom's Prime. :v: But I would totally pay for it on my own if she didn't have it.

My PS4 comes in Sunday, game might not come in until Mon/Tuesday. When's the first advance going to be?
