Video Games Madden 2013 - Page 33

Due to the Madden 12 thread, I'd thought i'd post what the news is about this years edition.

-There will be no more picks from defenders looking over the shoulder or having the ball come over head. Defense must face the ball.
- Super jump abilities for LBs/DBs has been taken away
-Receiver icons will light up for pass plays when they would expect the ball on certain routes. Doesn't mean they're open, but when they would expect the ball coming out of breaks.
-There are new accuracy tweaks. They want you to throw into windows instead of waiting for the receiver gets open (almost impossible on 12)
- New throwing motions, and specific drop backs for all qbs (3,5,7 step drops)
-QBs do PA faster so you don't get raped by defenses constantly.

All I've heard so far really, but it seems that this game should play better. However, that is what is said every year. Until Madden gets a true competitor imo (2ksports) they will continue to put out a shitty product.

Same here.

Also, HOW THE **** DO YOU THROW THE BALL AWAY!?

to throw the ball away, press the right analog stick.

I've been looking through other forums and guides to figure out how to get the defenders to man up correctly. still haven't found the answer. I did find that man align has nothing to do with it though. Apparently the man align is used for disguising zone coverage.

It irritates the hell out of me when an ILB is supposed to be covering a TE and you can't get him to move over to line up with him.

I personally would hate it if they did that. I love the all-whites but I don't like the all one colors for any team. The only team that I would say it looks decent on is the Ravens. The Texans all-reds look terrible IMO.

Just thought I'd share this once again in case anyone is interested. I believe there are still 3 teams available. We just opened week 3.

I've been there for about 4 years now. They're a great group of guys that play straight up. And the leagues are active.

Here is the direct link to the Madden sign up. This is for Madden 2013 on the Xbox 360, btw.

Sometimes flipping the play will correct that. If that doesn't work, I just grab the player and manually move him closer to the player he's supposed to be defending.

Passing is a bitch in this game. I can run all day.

Can't pass for shit. All of my WR's drop passes if they're tackled almost immediately.

Wait- so you want your ILB to line up over the TE pre-snap? What about his gap assignments if they run?

A Salt Weapon · 09-19-2012, 09:24 AM

Anyone else having a problem running to the right? Not so much the yardage, I get plenty of long runs to the right. However about 1 out of every 5 runs to the right my RB hits an invisible wall and just stops, can't move for a second and then starts again, usually to just get tackled.
Kinda of an annoying glitch.

ThaVirus · 09-20-2012, 02:44 PM

6-0 online since making the switch to the 49ers.

They're basically the Chiefs on steroids.

lcarus · 09-25-2012, 01:37 AM

So are the draft classes random or the same for everyone? I drafted a QB named Dave Hurst at the end of the 1st round.
