Not sure if I get this (going to wait on reviews) but Cameron Wake is tied for the 2nd highest rated (with Geno Atkins) defensive lineman at 97 overall... JJ Watt was the highest rated defensive lineman. Nice to see Wake at least gets a lot of credit in the video game world.
Let us know how the franchise and superstar modes are. I doubt I get it unless that portion delivers.
Not impressed at all... haven't gotten into any game modes... but played one quick game against a friend, he played as the Redskins, and for half the game RG3 was invisible. Try tackling that mother****er while hes invisible. Edit: On the bright side, it was nice to have Keller.
Also, you guys can get it for $45 on Ebay. 360: http://www.ebay.com/itm/38070650473...5335869999&campid=5335869999&afepn=5335869999 PS3: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Madden-NFL-...5335869999&campid=5335869999&afepn=5335869999
I like they brought the owner mode back, but I have an issue with the interface. Wish it was different. 3 games in when rushing the QB I use dion, have 6 sacks and two FF. Playing zone blitzes he has two ints. also, just a monster.
Im gonna take my system apart tonight and blow it out and clean it up just to see if that helps some of my performance issues. But yeah I started going through some of the modes... I'll look forward to playing online tonight to check it out. No changes to me in the game play. Has coach career mode and fantasy dynasty drafts which is cool. Its pretty much what I expected and gives me my fix but I'm not impressed beyond that.
This won't do much, if anything. Madden menus are so laced up with unnecessary graphics that they're constantly streaming off your drive, which means long read times, which means menu lag.
Menus were laggy for me too. You have to understand they are cramming so much stuff into such an old platform with its own outdated limitations.
Do you guys install the game on your hard drive? I may buy it this weekend then return it if I dislike it. I think Gamestop gives you a refund if it's within 7 days.
I only play online and it's laggy and offensively charged as usual. Question for offline players. Is there much satisfaction in beating the computer? I want to try a franchise but it just seems like a waste of time.
I think there's a big difference between All Madden and All Pro difficulty. I usually blow out the computer on All Pro but then I get stomped on All Madden.
This. There's a huge upslope between the two. Also, FWIW, I played several games last night with little or no lag. Much more enjoyable.
Just got it in the mail today from Amazon. Grabbed one of the anniversary editions for the Sunday Ticket package. Seems like a killer deal for $100, considering I was having to scour the net for streams the past so many years since I got rid of DTV.
Any idea how to change the pre-snap camera view? I understand they want users to see ALL their receivers, but I can't get used to it all.
Cam wake and dion jordan get crazy pressure when i play ranked games with the phins. Jamar Taylor and Grimes along with reshad are crazy good and chris clemons has always been great to user. It's nice to finally have someone to throw to with mike wallace. Tanny's deep ball is awesome and their's not a db that wallace doesn't beat without safety help.
Anyone else have an issue where you press the dive button but your guy doesn't do anything so the runner goes right by? I'll blitz with Ellerbe and get into the backfield on a handoff and he won't make the tackle. It's frustrating.
If you havent figured it out yet... pause the game during the playcall screen only... then go into game options, and change the camera to Legacy. That will get you back to the regular madden view from the last few years.
Apart from a few new animations i don't see much difference to the last one, it INFURIATES me though how wrong the dolphins uniforms are!! the aqua is completely the wrong colour, way too dark and the 'dolphins' text on the front of the shirt is wrong. Ryan Tannehill also looks appalling
Havent tried it yet, but can you have 3 versions of the offline careers? Meaning a player version, a coach version, and an owner version at the same time (not together, but 3 separate files to save and play around with and make moves, etc?). I know in the past you could have multiple Franchise Owner seasons...but think in latest Madden's they took that a way, and it over-rights the franchise file, etc, limiting you to only 1 franchise running. Wondering if I could be say 3 seasons deep on Coaches Franchise mode, and then start a Player or Owner mode and start from scratch while not impacting my Coaches mode, etc.?
You CAN have a player, coach and owner going simultaneously, but I *think* you have to start them simultaneously. In other news: I've beaten the CPU on All-Madden two straight games now -- the last being an OT thriller over the Colts which Lamar Miller won with a 33-yard TD gallop.
