Using 2 controllers with custom playbooks for CPU vs CPU games

[BigOrangeVol4Life]

Madden would be the most beloved video game since Pac Man if EA would hire 2 people from this site as consultants… Sabo and Tommy Coa

For the 2 controller method, do I need to have 2 profiles and both profiles need their own ps+ account?

Not long ago, I went through every formation and found all the plays with auto motion. These are the unique plays, I didn’t count jet sweep plays at all unless it was unique too. Don't think there were but 2 of these.

It’s sad how few motion plays are in madden. Nfl team's use motion 60 per cent of the time. Miami uses motion 82 percent of the time.

There's so few you’d have to make all of them generic to you pkaybook and then add in plays unique to an individual team. Like wide zone plays with the rams. The defensive playbooks are way less diverse than they used to be as well.


This list doesn't have the specific plays it just shows which formations have them and how many are in that specific formation.

If I were a consultant, this would be my first ask. Add more motion plays.

No you don’t need two accounts. Withse the cond controller, wait until you are in game’s main menu, take second controller and sign into the same profile,

Are NFL Live Playbooks good or no because I've never used it before.

On Xbox One and PS4, with live playbooks like 21 and back, yes, you can use them. However, I wouldn't recommend using them on next-gen due to a glitch providing the Cardinals' live playbook. I don't have next-gen, so unsure how it's impacted.

I highly recommend custom books. The game plays better by half-starring plays in the default books. If I added plays, it would only be to achieve a proper run/pass balance. I'd also include some blitzes in the defensive books and half-star those plays too.

I'm currently at my dad's house right now with my xbox 1 so I'll try the nfl live playbooks and see how it is.

Playbooks have took a turn for the worst since 22. Even on xbox one.-_
