MADDEN 15

[millz]

This is going to be out within a month.. I have not seen many videos nor gameplay footage of the new madden. Only a few clips here and there, and I wasn't blown away, it looked to be the same as Madden 25.

I'll most likely still get it, whats everyone's thoughts on the game and what would you like to see EA do?

The last madden I really liked was 12, it went downhill from there. 13 was lackluster, 25 was decent on PS3(only got it for the NCAA rosters for franchise) and 25 on PS4 is alright, though nowhere close to the presentation of 2K5 which is really sad.

I hope this is a good year for Madden gameplay/presentation wise but I doubt it.

We really should play Hemingway more often.

that a BOY floppy.

Told ya. This game is on POINT.

I don't know. maybe when Eric Fisher didn't get his hands on Greg Hardy against the panthers?

I also saw it in the Browns Rams game. Mitchell Schwartz didn't move on the first play of the game watching his man come by after the ball had been snapped and wrecked Brian Hoyer.

I am one of the most critical out there.

there are still some things that I don't like.

Like for instance I threw a deep ball, and a corner who was running with another receiver has eyes in the back of his head, stops mid trail, turns and picks it.

Stuff like that is weird, and not realistic, but overall, the FUN FACTOR IS BACK.

Is the defense playable in All Madden mode? Can you tackle in that mode or is every RB Marshawn Lynch?

[Unsmooth-Moment]

Played a couple of games and racking up sacks with Poe and Houston is incredibly easy. May have to move up the difficulty.

All he had to do was step up in the pocket and the tackle would have pushed him out.


Been using Chip Kelly's book online, its absolute fire with the chiefs. Lots of dual RB sets with Charles/Davis, inside/outside zone runs and short passes because anything over 20yds is likely to get picked this year vs anything with decent user skills.

I would be more worried about the dead eagles player back in the secondary, no one could survive that.

I'm the wrong person to ask. I do a lot of stuff myself. This game plays more true to ratings than most I have seen if that makes sense.

If anyone wants to play on XB1, hit me up. I just moved up to #55 ranked, and can show you a bit of my scheme/concepts that I run online, and you can build off it. I run with Philly's book (spread works great with KC) on O, and KC's book on D. Coverage is really good this year, so all you really need is a handfull of good zone & man blitzes to mix in on 3rd down. Pass rush is better, so I mostly send 4 and roam the middle with DJ.

Alright....give the scoop on the game. I haven't played Madden since 2005, but considering getting it this year for something to do.

Good? Bad? Serviceable? Is there an online coop that you can do?

Picked mine up for PS3 last nite, havent had the chance to play it yet, will later. Cant wait till I eventually get my a PS4. Sucks they still havent fixed Jamaal Charles hair yet, he still dont have dreads only what looks like twisties. Damn.

I know when they made madden 25 for XboxOne he look kinda white.

If it's the same or anything like Madden 25, that playbook is the shit.

As far as runs go, no playbook can beat it. All of the zones, traps, draws, counters, etc. make it damn near impossible to stop. The passing plays could be better (I think the Saints playbook is best in that regard), but I prefer a balanced attack.

Plus, it's no secret that Jamaal is our offense's engine. Going into the spread and getting him 1-on-1 with a LB or safety in the hole means some big ****ing gains!
