Rented the game for a week.... and

1. No CPU run game, whatsoever. I played against Minnesota as Detroit (Of course,) and I held AP to around 40+ yards, on various sliders at OS. A few slider sets even had run def set to 0 across the board. Complete game killer for offline franchise. I tested against all the strong running teams.

2. CPU blitzes far too often, allowing me to hit just about any pass over the middle. Since when does every team play def like Jim Johnson? It's so bad, that I actually want the CPU to sack me, or I'm going to get a big play every time. Again, my complaint is that blitzing allows ME, the USER, to abuse passing plays far too often. Passing over the middle seems to be far too easy, period.

3. Adaptive AI: one of the biggest fails in sports gaming history. Seriously, no way in hell does the feature actually exist. The CPU AI doesn't adapt to jack or shit.

4. Sliders: When will those of us who actually do play offline, get more effective sliders? If the game does manage to ship with working sliders, which can be argued again this year, they're about as effective as Drew Brees in playoff games. I'm not even sure if they're working, honestly. How can I play with my def rush set at 0, and still have the CPU get no results?

5. The halftime highlight show is weak as hell. It's an embarrassment.

6. Interceptions: Why is every interception a pick 6?

7. Community Day Guys: Nice job testing this shit. Did you guys happen to test the game before or after you partied all night? You can stick my ass in a room for 1 hour and I would have picked apart every single issue I just listed. Get a fucking job.

This game has so many other flaws, it's ridiculous. To say this game is worthy of an 8 or higher, is laughable. Ian and crew better have one hell of a patch in store or this game is just a better version of Madden 09, and that's not a compliment. I judged the game way too early when I borrowed it from my friend, so I decided to rent it, and it's only getting worse. But most of these issues I noticed on that day. Online? I haven't bothered, so maybe that's where the game flourishes... But offline franchise mode, is yet another failure due to weak CPU AI and tons of other flaws.

Do you think it's possible to ignore the graphical improvement requests and give us better AI? Or will we get better facial models, because Peyton Manning doesn't really look like Peyton Manning?

I'd rate the game a 6.5. Give us a cleaning version of Madden 10, because the bugs in this game are ridiculous, with major AI improvements, more effective sliders, and Madden 11 might be worth a purchase. Otherwise, It's another rent and forget.

1. I use custom sliders. I've tried ALL Madden, and I won, just in an even more unrealistic, retarded fashion, so why bother? Same results, just more retarded.

2. The halftime show isn't better than last year. Last year I didn't have to click a button to skip through the horseshit.

3. I don't even understand wtf you said.

4. No shit, dick tracy? Do I care about graphics? I don't care if Peyton Manning looks like Mr. Fucking Potato head, as long as he plays like Peyton Manning, which he does not.

The CPU AI blows. How many years will they avoid fixing it?
 
i guess the game is an acquired taste. some people love it, some people hate it.

I guess if I enjoyed being a superbowl contender every year, due to mentally retarded AI, while having the #1 ranked rush defense, I'd love the game. I guess if I enjoyed the company of mentally retarded children, I'd adopt one... but I don't. They make me sick.

To each his own.
 
''I'm GilbertArenas0 and I've won 5 straight superbowls. Thanks, Ian, for making the most realistic Madden to date.''

I'm glad I suck at video games. I went 8-8 on All-Pro. Never thought I'd be happy to not be good at Madden, but it's finally paying off. Seriously.

I actually agree.

It's so bad, I actually made up my own player lock feature. I can only control the QB on offense, and DT on defense, no switching, at any time... and my team still wins. I'm 31 years old, and I find myself inventing ways to make these games not totally suck.

I'd love an 8-8 record, or worse.
 
If you put it on the hardest passing difficulty, I guarantee you throw more interceptions than completions. If you set the right sliders, you can have very realistic games.
 
Thank you for trying it again and being more thorough. Good breakdown of your experience of the game. I
played the Panthers in my Eagles chise today and Williams went for 85 yards on 20 carries, although all in all the CPU run game does need to be improved. I haven't noticed the CPU blitzing too often, although I will pay
more attention to that. I think the adaptive AI is ok, but I have never played a game where that portion of the game was "great". I haven't messed with the sliders yet, so I'll take your word for it until I look at them. I think calling the halftime show an embarrassment is a tad much. I personally would like a more realistic feel, and maybe highlights from around the league. But for now it's acceptable for me. The pick 6 after every interception, I agree 100% That is something that needs to be patched. I've also noticed the middle of the field being open a lot, but I usually see that in zone coverage, not because they blitz too much.

That's exactly what I don't want from any sports game. I hate the fact that they can be uncompetitive offline. I'm an offline chise guy, have online but don't play sports games online much, and I hate when the CPU is too easy to beat. On the hardest setting, you shouldn't be looking for ways to make the CPU harder to beat. They should be able to break runs on every play you didn't play call right for. That's how the NFL is and that's how the hardest difficulty should be. Of course every now and again you'll have someone miss an assignment in real life, but it should be that if you don't call the right play on defense and you leave yourself exposed than the CPU should take advantage of it.

To Pirgo (the fucking idiot who proclaims his stupidity every time he lays his fingers on a keyboard), Nuk was talking about the CPU run game not being effective. Not the user running the ball, but the CPU running the ball. And CPU running is something EA Sports has never been able to get right. Not saying 2K got it right because frankly I don't remember if CPU running was good in 2K5. I just don't see how that's something that is so hard to get right.

Like you said Nuk, it's shit we can find out within a day of playing the game, so there's no reason at all that it should make it through a year of testing and development without being caught and fixed (more than a year if you take into account the fact that a lot of these problems have been going on for the past couple of years).
 
The Halftime show is a joke , whoever trys to claim it's not is a freaking idiot (imo).

HEY LETS SHOW A FEW REPLAYS WITH A NICE FANCY GRAPHIC OF ALL THE TEAMS LOGOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As for the game , I think it's going in the right direction but still needs major work for offline play

Noodie...I've noticed this on both user and cpu picks, honestly more with user picks. I think it something they should look at.
 
I am a huge madden critic and even I think you are being a bit over dramatic with some of this stuff. I have not noticed being able to hit "every pass over the middle". I play all madden level and do not see this. Maybe it is just me though.

2. While the half time show is not great, it is an improvement and shows that the vocal members of the Madden community are finally being heard. Is it perfect? No. Could it be better? Absolutely, but the fact I finally see some progress makes me hopeful.

3. There are not THAT many issues with the game. I believe they tested it, but like any game it is going to have bugs. All games do. I am not making excuses but it is impossible for them to detect every little thing.

4. Wait a minute, you said you get big plays over the middle and passing is way too easy, yet are still complaining about interceptions going to the house? Something does not add up here. If you can consistently hit passes over the middle, why are you throwing interceptions.

Here is some advice - stop getting picked on the outsides near the sidelines and they wont be touch downs.

This years madden is a step in the right direction, perfect it is not, but it is better. I think it is the best of the next gen efforts (while that may not be saying much) and I have fun with the game, and at the end of the day, thats all that really matters I think.

I noticed the interception issue having the same problem that NCAA 09 had (didn't play NCAA 10). It's not just the CPU running picks back, I actually never got that problem a lot because I usually take pretty good pursuit angles, it's mostly how easy it is for the User to run back picks.

Once you get a pick it seems like your fellow defensive players are Pro Bowl offensive lineman that can create perfect huge holes for you to run through. I'm not talking running in circles, doing fucking loopdy-loops around the field, I'm just talking straight running through holes.

I think that's a problem with the programming where every defensive player is aware of the interception right as your player picks it out of the air, like before your guy is back on the ground on his own two feet your players are already in full-out block mode. That doesn't happen in real life.
 
I wont argue with anyone that offline took a backseat to online/head to head. They stressed it prior to the release, "We want it to be all about competitive football." Its too bad the AI isn't competitive.

With that said, I have lost games. I'm not comfortable saying this is a little better than 09. It feels like a different game. It just still has a lot of fundamental issues. Blocking, pass coverage, WR catching, and short yardage situations on defense.
 
You know what is funny the same people claiming this game is to easy are the same people who will cry its to hard if they ever did up it so it was actually difficult. Just play the game and shut up if you dont like it fine you dont like it. But do you have to constantly wine about it?

Find the guy's other 10 million threads about why Madden 10 sucks. I hate people who post a million videos about how garbage the game is just like you, but when someone posts their thoughts you get the "omg if you don't like it don't play it just shut up!!!" comments. However, when someone comes in and says "this is the best Madden I've ever played, I really like the throwing motions, I like the adaptive AI, etc, etc" you don't get the "omg if you like it just shut up and play it, I don't wanna hear your bullshit."

Those same people who complain are the same people who get you what you want in your video game. 2K Sports started taking a strong look at what the community has to say and implementing those things into their game (I'm talking NBA 2K), and EA has even done that. You want a world where everyone shuts up and accepts whatever bullshit the companies give them then you make zero progress.
