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. |

According to this article, KC has the best overall defense and is the 3rd best team on Madden this year.

My first TD is a blocked kick. Go figure.

good news is that after about 40 games online head to head, I have seen 0 blocked. Nothing even remotely close (ie roughing the kicker). The timing is very hard when you introduce internet latency. |

Is anyone buying this? I see it discounted already 10 bucks with some even offering gift cards and other incentives. Also reviews arent horrible but not glowing either from Amazon Gamestop Wally World and Worst Buy. I have fallen plenty times for EA sucker moves on Madden Im gonna wait and see again before I buy.
