    I know this would be HIGHLY unlikely, but what if the Jests just went 0-16?

    I would enjoy watching every minutes of hardknocks :lol:

    I agree with all of what you said. I also love going up for jump balls...B Marsh all day! :up:

    Everyone seems to nit-pick at Madden 11 and although it may not be a 2k quality game, it is still fun and the only NFL game out there.

    i just finished playing a full season and won the superbowl last night. some final thoughts:

    the game is better than i thought. tbh, i played all 19 games, so i was pretty entertained.

    there are lots of glitches that still exist in the presentation. for example, gus johnson will say something like "the dolphins have recovered the football," when in fact the other team got it. tbh, i've learned to ignore these and i don't mind anymore.

    players in the back of the endzone don't get both feet in bounds.

    you can change the game speed in "my settings" menu. you can set gameflow audio to "always on." i do this to avoid listening to chris collinsworth.

    gameflow calls some stupid plays. i find myself audibling a lot.

    pacman jones doesn't have a picture.

    Franchise mode seems the absolute same. Free Agency and the draft are the same. I don't remember if you can relocate your team and stadium in 2010, but you can do that in the offseason in 2011.

    There are "Draft Grades" after the draft, but I didn't check that.

    the dolphins specific superbowl ending was cool. i wont spoil it, but i do like how they have a legit celebration now.

    there's no subsitution for having the new players. watching dexter mccluster get injured three times in a season is pretty funny. the one game i did have him in, he had 83 yards receiving.

    this is interesting because a few days ago i was thinking of making a very similar post.

    After finishing out the season, I realized that there are tons of improvements that can go un-noticed. Unfortunately, a lot of these upgrades are for guys like me that dont play madden to death. I ended up having a fantastic time in my 1st season. Lost in the playoffs, but i'll get there.

    Played a half in the demo. Was kind of underwhelmed. The player faces are downright scary. Peyton Manning looks like a paper mache ghost.

    :no: I think it's an awesome game, just have to work out the quirks on passing and work in an off season mode and it would be one of the best.

    Yeah, that wasnt a fumble, Marhshawn(or was it Spiller?) had hit the ground before the ball poped out.

    I do like how NFL rules have never applied in a game of Madden, you only get called for offsides or false starts, PI is rarely called and holding isnt called at all.

    Hard to see at that angle, but the ball was PLENTY out. The CPU is never wrong with replays

    it doesnt help that the video quality is crappy, cant you save the replays to a flash drive and just upload them onto your computer?

    I dont think so. I think you can only upload them to EA's servers.... Which requires XBL

    Quick Madden Question

    Hey guys, wondering if you can help.

    Is there a way that I can preset my Depth Chart and particular "Sub Packages"?

    For example I am thinking of keeping B.Marsh in the slot in every package because of the west coast offense I run and I don't want to manually do that before every game.

    My fav. Madden is '08 for the PC, but I had to do my defensive subs EVERY game to put JT on the OLB etc, but that was fine and quick with a mouse. I don't want to have to go through that before every game this year.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    :up:

    I think having Marshall in the 3rd WR spot would put him in the slot, bro.

    Alternatively under "coaching" (i believe) you can find ways to make special packages. Build a special package, name it, and just select that package with that particular offense. If that makes sense. You just have to hit "circle" a few times and you're set.

    Thanks, I will look for those options. Trying to avoid the delay of game penalties setting up my packages on offense, or not being able to call a play on defense for the same reason.

    anlgp ↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → B A

    Yeah. They're called "Custom Packages" on the menu. Lemme know if you find them. I know they're available.

    Whenever I did subs for packages in-game (as I was playing against the opponent; press start, etc.), it saved it for me by itself.

    OH... Dude... I would have helped you get it any way I could. Didn't realize that's all you wanted to know. Rules fo the board prevent me from just broadcasting stuff like that. If you would have PMed I would have helped however I could.

    I just played the demo yesterday, and it has the feel of older Madden games, which is good.

    I don't like the strategy pad, and I can't help but press R2 to sprint!! :lol:

    fwiw I got used to the no sprint button thing. You can still turn the option on if you want. Through a season and a half of franchise, I still have issues making semi-complicated adjustments with the stupid strategy pad.

    You can turn it off though in options right? I know in the demo you can turn it off, auto-strafe, and that annoying coordinator talking to you and the stupid time runoff feature.

    In other news I actually enjoyed the demo a lot more than I thought I would....which I never thought would happen.

    I knew you could turn off the runoff feature, but will look into doing the same for auto strafe and the coordinator, but the question is, what is a"ranked match". Can you keep auto sprint off? I only played a few games of online last year, did ranked matches have the runoff time?
