Madden '17
Anyone getting a little excited? Seems like they have really made an effort this year.
Franchise mode is getting an overhaul according to recent news: 1. Full player editing while your franchise is progressing. ![]() 2. Coaching/FO decisions. ![]() 3. In-game ticker with live updates. ![]() 4. Practice squads. ![]() 5. New commentary team that will actually talk about things happening in your franchise. 6. Draft has been tweaked with more busts/gems. Gameplay improvements: 1. Zone Coverage overhaul. ![]() 2. New ball-carrier special moves. 3. Real gap control on defense. 4. Real ball physics. In the past the ball would tether to a player based on ratings. They also overhauled kicking to make it a challenge now. There's a new three-click system and weather/location will play a factor. Also, apparently on clutch kicks if the opponent "freezes" the kicker by calling a timeout the kicking meter will disappear and you have to make the kick by muscle memory. Kicks and punts can also be blocked. How badly all of this shit is ****ed up on release remains to be seen but it does seem like they are making a big effort. |

Looks like Spider is the only one not able to use Reeks talent. He's a monster.

I'm referring to his speed and route running. If you know what plays to call, he's damn near always open.
He actually drops a fair amount of passes. And me missed 9 weeks with a broken collarbone in my last season. |

I think he languished in FA and retired because I could find him around 2020.

Then you ****ed up.
A guy with his measurables in Madden is invaluable. And it's not like you had any better option with our franchise. Albert Wilson? Some FA or draftee JAG with nowhere near the potential? It's especially unforgivable given his return skills as well. |

His "measurables" placed him on the bottom rung of WRs in the league. I think he was like 63 OVR. I'm pretty sure he was so bad I cut him in favor of DAT.
It's not my fault the roster makers didn't have a clue. You know, like the rest of us.

I'm talking about his speed, agility, and acceleration. Those are far away the most valuable ratings in Madden. Anything else can be increased with relative ease.

I don't even think his speed rating was right on the roster I had. It was like 92.

So the game quit locking up but the "menu" screen (which is a ****ing abortion) is horribly laggy. Again, I assume this is due to PS3 but I can't say I'm a fan of the layout if it worked perfectly.
Is it that hard to just have words, that lead to words, that lead to what you want? I couldn't care less what NFLN is tweeting or what the hot story is this week...

You're using dated hardware bud. That's the experience.
