How do you turn of accelerated clock in madden 12?

It's a MAJOR annoyance for me as I've always played 15 min quarters to make my franchise as realistic as possible as far as defensive stats, etc. My best solution so far is to run my own offense in no huddle by setting my audibles to my most commonly used plays.. I don't use the no-huddle on every play though obviously, but using it does help to keep the clock from accelerating after the play.

Pause go to options should let you turn it off..

You can't do it. If you go to the main menu and go to my madden and game options, it specifically states you cannot turn off the accelerated game clock off for franchise mode. Really? Why not EA, that is really pathetic that you cannot turn it off when you can do it for other game modes, it should be up to the user if they want it. I only had 3 possessions in one game and 120 total yards on offense.

To be honest 8 minutes is still too short, if you run the ball a lot the clock is going to drain really fast. 10 minutes might also be to low depending the type of gamer you are. I had my quarter length on 10 minutes and only was able to get the ball once that quarter. I suggest the quarters be 15 minutes and since the accelerated clock is on the game will still go by pretty fast.

Just like someone said before, Just make your games have 8 min quarters and its the same length as if you had 5 min quarters with no acceleration on. Easy fix.

So stupid. Makes me wana return it fosho.

I'm having the same problem

im having the same problemm did anyone figure out how to do it

ok for the extended quater length method i don't see any achievements that have a maximum min per quarter limit. so they must have designed this game so that its recommended to play longer quarters in franchise mode. thank you for the suggestion. really helped.
