I'm actually having fun with Madden this year....

[LJ27MvP]

I guess I just hate AM

just had a great game vs LJ27 in 220 lost 24-14 but it was a battle. Guys complaining about run game just dont call right D. First play gm I called a overload blitz to wrong side and he took it 59yards for td. Held him to 89 on 19 carries after that. If I didnt make a couple bad reads...

I just see all the bs on AM and it pisses me off to no end. Game feel so scripted on AM also. Like boost to differnet aspects of the game. Guys are calling the same plays and same Ds cause they are playing the AI.

Everything just feels more balance on AP and I feel Im playing the play not the cpu.

Seriously anyones next 220 game play it smart dont play greedy thinking AI got your back if you fuck it up and let me know the results. Shit almost feels like football.

It was a damn good game. The running game isn't that hard to stop, but like its been said before, it's all about calling the right play. I haven't really gotten into the whole AM vs. AP discussion. The only major thing that bothers me on all madden is having the corners running the wr's routes before the wr makes a cut.

I can say though that tonight's game was one of the most enjoyable, football-like games I've played this year.

AM isnt a problem. Your prime has come and gone Tim. You lookin like Larry Holmes now.

Im gonna go Foreman on your ass when we play.

Thats the problem that I have with AM too. Ive seen MFers with low play recognition and awareness run the route before my receiver even makes his break. That shit is frustrating as hell. How are you suppose to get timing down with your receiver when the defense will run it better then your guy. I keep going back an forth on my feelings with AM and AP. I can't wait to see if this patch makes AP playable again.

[MrBill]

Tim and QS make some valid points and I still think AP is where it is at just like last year. I've booted some dead weight in the 220 and have the Broncos, Dolphins and Colts open if some of you league veterans are interested in checking out the better gameplay on AP.

Could not agree more with this QS. On AP, it feels like the corners are actually reacting to the routes being run rather than just jumping the route. I also think that on AP, the ratings play more of a factor. You can definitely see a difference between the higher rated players and the lower rated players.

Right... I felt that way with AP in Madden 10 as well.

if they tone the broken tackles down from the current sliders of 900 to about a 60 level i might play all pro again. I think there's too many broken tackles on all madden, on all pro its just crazy.

Yep... that is my beef with AP. So many broken tackles equal more big plays on AP.

[JOHNNYTHECLOWN]

i like the idea of having to play defense, havin to get a rhythm for your opponents playcallin and shit and tryin to stop what he's goin to do next

[MrBill]

I take the colts :shy:

You got 'em. I'll send you the login in information on PM.

[BigBucs]

AP is a joke. Anyone complaining about nobody getting open and D running your routes are shitty play callers. My slow ass receivers have no problem getting open. I cant believe anyone is considering AP. I guess 50 points a game isnt high enough for you.

there's gonna be 50 point games on AM or AP...

Dont be a clown Johnny. There is 50 point games on AM therefore playing AP exclusively will result in 60 and 70 point games.

You would think that would be the case but it isn't. The average points per game scored on AM is about 4.5 higher than on AP for 220.

That will go in BB's ear and out the other. You won't win when trying to argue AM vs AP with Big Bums. If it wasn't for the broken tackles, AP would be the way to go.
