The Bluth Company Discussion Thread Part 8 | Divisional Finals | NHL 15 Sign-up

[Jack de la Hoya]

I just don't know if I can justify dropping the money on an Xbox One when I don't anticipate playing a ton going forward.

On the other hand, wifey just got a raise...

Also, if anyone currently has FIFA on the One and wants to join my pro club, do so.

Name? I haven't played Be a Pro or whatever at all (almost only online seasons, which is genius and would be easily done in NHL...alas) but would like to try, am pretty good at the game.

Sugar Mamma now?

Aint nothing wrong with that!! Better make sure that pool is spotless tho!

On a side note, I do think you could gather 30 good GMs to keep Bluth alive for NHL15.

I went PS4, so Im out on madden here! Looks like a fantastic game tho as I downloaded the early release for 360.

Would someone care to shed some light on how the fantasy draft feature works for Madden? Live draft, priority list, etc? I'd be all for that though, and in that case don't really care as much about my team. I'm not as big of a Bears fan as a Chicagoan should be and the Chargers are very close to my favorite team, mainly because Antonio Gates is a god.

In the case of a fantasy draft, my top 3 probably becomes Chargers, Falcons, and Titans. Although that could change in order to be in someone's division or conference or something.

 

[l Bruins l]

I am in for nhl15 on 360 as Bruins, and Madden on Xbox one, as Patriots, if it is a draft than I don't care what team.

 

[noexult]

NHL 15 on 360, still going for the Or maybe just continue with NHL 14

Madden? Nope...Fifa15, yes

 

[matt1396]

I'm still in for the and I dunno about a Madden league. I like football but I know no where near as much about it as I do about hockey or basketball. Speaking of basketball would anyone do an online 2k15 league?

 

[That Habs Fan]

I will be playing Destiny on the XB1, if anyone from Bluth wants to form a squad I would be down. Could be a good way to keep in touch until GMC appears for next gen (if it ever does)

IDK maybe probably not..

I have NBA 2k14 for Xbox 1 if you ever want to play a game, add my GT: CupChamps1214

I'll probably just hang onto 14 as I'm not a huge basketball fan and it's a great game.

 

[Jack de la Hoya]

I gotta say, at this point, I'm much more intrigued by Madden than NHL15. I don't think I've bought the game in a decade.

I've done a couple fantasy draft CC's. They are live draft, and run very smooth. Each pick gets about 1:30 to pick, and you can sim the rest of the draft at any time. We usually drafted anywhere from 15-20 picks, and then simmed the rest of the rounds. (52 total) If a person cant be there, the CPU drafts for them, and usually does a decent job drafting for the CPU's.

I've decided to take initiative and declare that I will be starting a Connected Careers on the XBOX One when Madden 15 comes out. It will likely be a fantasy draft league, and I'll see if we can find a subforum on HF to use, and if not, I'll look for another website to host. I think we can use the "Geek Emporium" sub forum on HF. I might start a thread here shortly. If ArGar gets the game, he's welcome to be the commissioner if he wants to be, otherwise I am happy to do it.

If you are interested in joining the league, post your top 3 teams that you'd be interested in using, remembering that a fantasy draft will have totally different rosters.

For myself, I'll go:
1) Cowboys
2) Saints
3) Packers

 

[Jack de la Hoya]

Does Connected Careers generally go multiple seasons?

I literally have no idea.

Yes, I've played a CC that went 6 seasons, and I don't know why it wouldn't go longer.

Thanks Connor,

The fantasy draft sounds sexy.

Chargers
Bears
Seahawks

 

[Jack de la Hoya]

Alright, well I need to figure out whether I'm going to get the XboxOne first. If I do, I'd gladly join, and I wouldn't really care what team I ended up with if it was a fantasy draft--plenty of teams have cool jerseys, and as long as it isn't the Cowboys or Giants, I'm sure I could deal.

I assume coaches stick with the organization. Does that have any practical effect? Playbooks, etc? I literally haven't played Madden since the early 360 years.

 

[Malakian#13]

1) SEAHAWKS
2) Chargers
3) packers

Being from Seattle I think I should get priority!

If 15 is like 25 (that's stupid), then your created character is the coach/GM and you pick what teams playbook you use, and what style of offense you want to run. That way, if you're the Seahawks or Eagles; but end up with a slow QB, you can change the style of play to fit your team.

The more I remember CC, the more it totally blows GMC out of the water.

Nut up and buy it!

I believe you can choose your playbook

 

[x Jenk Jenk x]

1) Chiefs
2) Packers
3) Browns

 

[The Press Express]

Just threw this out on the Football sub forum, Hopefully we can get a few GMs from there

 

[l Landeskog l]

Not gonna be joining the Madden league, but if I did I'd choose my Raiders. Don't think anyone would choose em.

 

[oconnor9sean]

Here is a really good article about Madden Connected Franchise mode. I wish NHL was run this effectively. http://www.easports.com/madden-nfl/news/2014/feature-details-connected-franchise

 

[Jack de la Hoya]

That looks incredible.

 

[noexult]

I'll sign up for Madden;
1. Oakland Raiders
2. Minnesota Vikings
3. Jacksonville Jaguars
