Current Madden Trends

What are your BIGGEST gripes with the game RIGHT NOW.

IF you could change a few things what would they be?

Recently I have been playing a lot of people who run double z and turbo blitz off the other side with their safety...

1. being able to hike and immediately throw a slanted curl route, through yellow zones/QB spy's/ and man coverage

2. QB spies getting juked out by every and any QB

3. Face throws... you could be strafed and awaiting the Pass, and there is still a great chance your opponent can catch it

4. Contain Blitzes no way 1 dude in a contain should be able to F ur entire line up.

5. way to many fkn penalties and bad snaps


just a few off the top of my head

idk, havent played online in ages

what else do you want changed? the more ideas the better fellas.

the more detailed the better.

Face throws
sideline INT's

what else?

eliminate small HBs bouncing off LBs

well im in perfect position for a user pick and a nearby teammate jumps in front of it and swats it away.

Yeah dropping easy picks! Or fumbling the ball away after 2 straight carries.

bring back hit stick and reward user play on d. so many times have i just dropped wide open picks. oh and dont make a player throw one hand at a ball coming straight at them. have them put up both hands or something lol

Motion hike throws...kills zone period

easiest idea ever


Make madden 12, like madden 05!

if madden 12 zone is what it is, they dont play assignments, they play a zone on the WRs assignment (GOD PLEASE WORK LIKE THAT)

well dont really play madden anymore and the top reason why is the tackling which is number 1 reason and how the speed factor controls the game, how desean jackson can beat every corner on the game is ridiculous and bad zones theres too many reasons i could go on and on but no matter how bad madden is i will still love football go bucs baby!!!!!!

I would like the chance for throw-away button to actually work. QB's do this all the time in NFL where if they don't see anything, they just chuck it out of bounds over a receivers head.

It sucks when you have a immobile QB and nobody is open with a defender approaching you. There is nothing you can do and risks a fumble. At least allow us to take a sack appropriately without getting our QB nailed and fumbling.

Another thing I have always wanted is individual assignments (ie. hout routing) the Olineman. That way if we know a person bringing the same old money blitz then we can assign the oline to black that particular defender.

Just my $0.02.

BTW, great job farlz and gibs. You guys do a great job of making madden feel like a game and a community rather than a business as other tip sites do. Great work!

oh thought of another one b4 i head off to bed

Make 2 different buttons for

QB Slide

and

QB Dive


Too many times have i dove when i tapped my X button to slide, didnt matter how lightly i tapped it my qb always reaches out and fumbles, instead of just falling on his ***

Make all the attributes of a player relavant, and not just speed. A corner rated at 97 speed, 58 awr and 60 ova can lock up the games best recievers, a below average reciever can abuse the best corners in the game because the have 97-98 speed. Ive also seen vids were the Ravens D-line was totally punked by an offensive line composed of QB's, no joke.

They need to do something about PRO-TAK too. Its just garbage to me. With Pro-Tak in the end all you defense is doing is helping the offense get exta yards. How many times have you stuffed a run play only to see you defenders get behind the RB and push him forward for the first or TD? Not to mention the times where the RB has like 3-4 guys wrapped around him and he miraculously breaks out of the tackle. C'mon Man.

That happens in real life, but not all day like madden, they should tone it down a bit

^ R3 is the throw away button, so I see nothing wrong with this but 7/10 you will get an intentional grounding or fumble

has anyone else tried to throw a short pass and it hits your o line in back o their head or something like that?

over the head catch.
take loco motion out.

Make it so that when I hit the qb he still doesn't have the ability to chunk the ball downfield 50+ yds

DB drop easy interceptions, with WR's not even attempting to stop defenders from getting interceptions when out of position.

I want to be able to cycle through playbooks while in practice mode instead of quiting everytime to pick a different playbook
