Madden 2013

usering the safety is risky with all the unbumpables routes this year, especially with how effective out routes and comebacks are vs man. I user the MLB since DJ is reeruned quick.

Throw me an invite if anyone wants to play. XBox GT is Diry Trillo (with the space between). Skill points around mid 900's with a 210-120ish record (chiefs only)

I'll be on tonight...no doubt. I'll get a game going with someone via this thread once I'm ready to play.

I don't give a shit. Have you ever played this game? Have you ever played it against a glitching pansy? It's ****ing gay and takes all the fun out of it- even when I win. There is nothing fun about playing an entire game and seeing the same 3 plays for 45 minutes.

Usually I'll get on the mic and start bitching at the guy if he doesn't switch up his plays, but for the most part, they just keep trying it hoping to get lucky. I remember one time though, I started a game and I could hear the kid talking through my speakers. He must have been talking to his friend or something. He was like "I'm gonna get up by 3 TDs and he's gonna quit".

The game started, he got the ball first and lined up in a 2 WR, 2 TE, singleback formation. He was using the Patriots so I already knew he was going to either 1) throw the inside seam to Gronkowski on the right side 2) throw the inside seam to Hernandez on the left side 3) throw the seam to Gronkowski on his outside shoulder or 4) throw the seam to Hernandez on his outside shoulder. So I user'd Earl Thomas as usual and jumped the inside seam. Of course, the idiot tries to sneak it in there and I pick it off the very first play of the game. I could hear him through the speakers again, he was like: "WTF, man!".

So I score a TD off the INT and he gets the ball back. What do you know, he lines up in the same ****ing formation. I knew he was going to try it again but figured he'd probably go to Gronk this time. Sure enough he did and I baited him into throwing yet another INT to Earl Thomas. At that point I heard him say: "Aww, man, this guy's good".

So I jump on the mic and I'm like "Dude, pick a different ****ing play, man. Why are you doing that? There's no possible way it can be fun". He's like "Bro, I've been doing this all night and no one could stop it". -____- This little ****er had probably been racking up wins for the past couple hours using the same.****ing.play.every.damn.time. It's ****ing gay!

Anyway, I ended up being like 3 or 4 scores ahead of him in the 2nd quarter so I was like "dude, just try another play, who knows what will happen". So this idiot tries a ****ing hail Mary for no apparent reason and I picked that off too. He was like "**** this shit; I'm out" and quit..

That kid wasn't too good at it but, like I said, some people are REALLY good at it. They'll put a super-fast wideout at TE (I've seen Torrey Smith, Percy Harvin and Greg Jennings in this position quite a lot) and run that play all the time. With how fast the receivers are and the fact that they have the option of throwing to the inside or outside shoulder, it makes it very tough to guard those types of plays, while also having to worry about the other 3 or 4 receivers they have running routes on that particular play. Occasionally I have issues with the QB wrap and read option but I haven't seen that much lately.

At any rate, the shit is just annoying to me and it equates to camping in Call of Duty, which is also an extremely ****ing gay activity. Of course, you can do it if you like. There's nothing in the rule book against it, but it seriously affects the enjoyment of other players.

Yeah, like I said earlier, I user the safety a vast majority of the time, but against certain teams and/or play styles (particularly speedy receivers and people that like to test you deep from time to time) I find its best to use the MLB.

I'm impressed by your record with the Chiefs, by the way. I think I'm right around .500 with them at this point. They were much better when the game first came out because Cassel was serviceable with an 80 overall. Now we just have three steaming piles of shit behind center and it makes it tough for me to win (my passing attack is admittedly a bit shaky). Flowers, DJ, Hali, Houston, Berry and Charles are ****ing MONSTERS though.

I was bored playing teammate Madden the other day (offline, we play 4 guys together on the same team and it is so much fun) and decided I was going to take online seriously and see what I could do...

I've rattled off 13 straight with the Seahawks and haven't really even tried because I use gameflow on offense which is ****ing stupid...

I've gotten back to having a shut down defense and the last 13 games I think I've finished 2 of them because I'll get up by 3+ scores and the other guy will quit.

I'll play you and Aspengc at some point in the future. The way you make it sound, I probably won't put up much of a fight against either of you but it would be fun to play anyway. I do most of my playing on Sundays and Mondays.

Throw me a FR on XBL. I play legit, ie punt on 4th down unless i'm down a lot or inside the 40. My passing game actually improved when I switched to stanzi, his release is so much quicker than the other 2 schmucks. I'd probably have more wins if I didn't leave so much. My DNF is high, around 28%, since I leave if someone FG block glitches, onside glitches or runs nothing but QB wrap. Read option I dont mind but the D-line glitches out on wrap and EA has never addressed it.

I had a dude last night onside glitch recover, the next play he kicks a field goal, then it has me KICKING OFF TO HIM. Hopefully EA gets rid of this crap as well as that "throw your receiver open" garbage.
