Official Madden 2010 Wishlist

[Houston]

Ok here's something I was thinking about that would eliminate about 90% of the cheese from madden.

It needs some sort of play/route commitment feature for the D. Instead of just run commit and pass comit, you could commit to certain routes.

It happens to us all and we all hate it, when you know exactly what your opponents offense is doing and you still cant stop it. On average 3 times a game, I'm 100% sure my opponent is running a screen and I still can't stop it consistently. Or I'm 100% sure that they're going to run a curl route but my stupid defense still can't react to it.
It could work something like this....

Before the ball is snapped you could press "RT/R2" and it brings up a list of routes/play types. You can simply press "O" and your defense will commit to a screen. Or "X" and your defense commits to the very effective curl route that your opponent has ran the last 4 downs.
Now granted it's a risky thing to use. If you commit to a screen and your opponent does a Hail Mary then it's a TD.

But this should eliminate the very effective cheese plays that your opponent can run 10 times in a row with no problem.

Fix the commentary. It aggrevates me when i would run for 5 yards then they would say 'He'll run for a loss' or on a field goal 'The kick is long enough, and it's short.'

btw Cris Collinsoworth speaks with a lot of emotion, Tom Hammond is the dude with no emotion.

the commentary is just awful.

played 3 games in my Vikings chise last night...


apparently Peyton Manning is an up and coming nfl star....and Tarvaris Jackson is a guy with intangibles and skill that all coaches in the league would love to have....so much so that they told me that 3 times about him inthe same game.

:thumbsup:

Reminds me of the time when they said that Dixon(a backup QB) was one of the elite in the league.

oh yeah how could I forget?


Give me the fucking win immediately after my opponent quits

This isn't a wish list post.

More or less an are you fixing this post with a couple other questions.

Maybe adem can take this list over to his buddy Ian for some answers? plzzzzzzzzzzz


1) I see new penalties are being added. That's great, but what about those currently in the game? False Starts don't happen much, mainly because there's no reason to hard count since offsides/encroachment don't happen much. Pass Interference? Facemasking has that one lame animation that usually goes hand in hand with a fumble......that needs to be addressed. Defensive Holding? Illegal Contact? How about the new stuff the league is putting in this year? Illegal blows to the head and stuff like that?

2) CPU Decision making. Will they continue to call timeouts at the 1:01 mark. Then call one at the next in bounds play.......and then at :20? Like c'mon, you guys didn't even bother to code logic here.

3) 2 Minute Offence. Did you know it's more time efficient to huddle up and call a play......rather than run the hurry up? How stupid is that? It's not possible to huddle and call a play in less than a second......and this needs to be addressed. In addition, the CPU doesn't know what the hell to do with a 2 minute drill.

4) CPU Punting. Can they please stop punting it out of the back of the endzone?

5) CPU FG decision making. I didn't know 48 yard FG's were so intimidating...to the point where you'd say F it and punt? C'monnnnnn

6) Will the CPU attempt to run properly? Hell just teach the CPU how to run the toss play at the very least. Those are automatic 5+ yard losses...

7) Challenges are practically broken IMO. Can we please decide what we are challenging?

8) You can't play SIM football with 5 minute quarters. Is the default finally going to change to 15 mins with an accelerated clock? I'm sorry but Football simply can't be played in 30 minutes.

:?::?::?::?::?::?::?:

that's all for now

For fuck's sake, just get the uniforms right. Is it really that much to ask?

And please fix or get rid of the phoney "robots" facemasks that don't even exist.

Please, no big arms or Legion of Doom shoulder pads when I edit my players. Furthermore, please keep them from losing all their personal and draft info when I do so as well.


More to come.

 

[Rayman]

I guarantee not one of killgod's suggestions will be addressed.


-FRANCHISE

-bring back restricted free agency. The current system is FUBAR
-I know how much Ian hates being compared to 2k5, but in 2k5 I could convince retiring players to come back for a price. Use this!!!
-please stop making draft position dependent on speed and stop penalizing lower draft picks by sapping their speed. I should never draft a 5'10" 200lb RB in Round 4 who has 85 SPD. This makes me turn off my system!
-I want the option to build new stadiums without having to move back

I'll think of more.

That would make league championship games so much better.
