Wasn't off line coop removed last year?
Still no random play option in the stupid useless practice mode?
Still no remotely decent or realistic ways to emulate player progress?
Yes, yes and subjective to your own opinion.
Over 11 years of Madden foruming with you guys and some of you STILL fall for the hype every year. There's ways one guy who is the dreamer who actually thinks this is the year.
In case you've missed the news EA Madden has been outed for the shit level development it truly is. In 8 years of this console gen not once have they gotten it right. There's a new console gen coming this version is likely getting the usual half assed attention treatment most games get at this point.
Anyways let's be real it's been a total shit covered cockfest for almost a decade. I'll be happy with a *backup* copy that'll keep me entertained for a few games before all the glaring Ai issues make me quit again.
Nobody is falling for anything. Those who play it accept the game is for what it is, it's a video game, not real life. Everyone wants sports games to be 100% real life and if even for a moment it isn't, they would rage snap the disc and everything is terrible about it. Sports games will always be video games, not real life, if you can handle that mind blowing fact then you can simple enjoy the game for what it is rather than crying over the shade of the 49ers helmets.
Again, nobody in 22T or TGT are falling for anything. We all have a hell of a lot of fun playing 100's of games year round. Everyone who's in our community here is most certainly getting their $60 worth.
What's funny to me is that most if not all sports games, are no different in this regard.
NHL is a retarded joke where physics are completely broken (ask anyone who plays it about body checking and watch the rage fly), the game AI is pathetic, most of the penalties have been removed (and will be a new feature in the future), Offline GM AI is utterly retarded...and everyone can deke the pants off the goalie using the same move that's been in the game since NHL 94.
FIFA is nothing but trick shots and speed whoring by chipping the retarded AI defenders. There's absolutely no fouls. Be A Pro is mind numbing because the AI is so simple minded and just passes the ball back and forth for half the game.
Tiger Woods is piss easy, default create a pro golfer and you'll shoot -20 without even trying.
I don't play NBA but all I've heard is the game has zero representation of defence.
Should I continue?
For whatever reason Madden takes the heat the worst, which isn't to say it's undeserving of criticism but I don't get what makes other games so special when they are equally fucking ridiculous as simulation sports in the exact same regard.
I never said a word about 2k in that post and I'm in large part speaking of the one on one situations.
I mentioned 2K to explain that games are all the same.
It's going to be annoying when/if you run into situations where you have a defender coming down with a legitimate momentum advantage and you see these animations play out because someone's "trucking" rating is higher.
Explain how you differentiate players strictly based on physics. Does that mean the smallest players are then the fastest? The biggest players truck everyone, every time?
I also think it may be frustrating to still not be able to trust what you see from defender's body positions. As evidenced earlier. The missed tackle animation played out and what should have been a clean spin move turns into this weird animation driven broken tackle
I wouldn't read much into the promo video's, they are usually shown on rookie to showcase the feature (in this instance, the moves. What kind of marketing would it be if all the RB's were tackled when trying to show off their new skill set? :walker
Need some perspective when viewing these things.
As for the intro's, for the love of god I want an option in the settings to skip it all. Nothing worse than waiting for all that shit to load/skip through, ADD kicks in, you turn your head for a moment then the game starts loading a CPU demo game and you have to wait all over again. :rage:
