"Looking at overall defensive gameplay, having a powerful pass rush is critical to the balance of the game, and the pass rush at launch is still going to be more powerful than it was in Madden NFL 22."

The whole article reads like Clint sticking to his guns. I like the feeling I'm getting from it, but we'll have to see what happens post-launch. I feel like our biggest fear on OS during the beta is that the game will get tuned for the YTers and comp crowd, and this article seems to say over and over again that they're not doing that.

• NFL Draft Flicker Issue
  • There were a couple graphical issues we had during the Closed Beta that have since been resolved

If they actually fixed this... a bug that's been in since Madden 16 or 17... I will be very thankful.

So much of this is music to my ears. If they actually stick to their guns and don't fall to the complaints of some of the vocal competitive players, then it is a great step forwards for the series.

It was all good news for my biggest concerns heading towards launch. Coverage isn't being nerfed. The insta-sheds are fixed, but pass rush remains stronger than 22. The low interest players re-signing too easily was tuned. Draft logic was tuned even more. Less high profile players will make their way to free agency.

If all of that is working at launch, my franchise will be well underway early on.

This is amazing except for the increased range for user INTs. We do not need superhuman picks again. The responsiveness needed to be fixed for sure but we do not need defenders out jumping WRs on every single pass.

Pass Blocking isn’t strong enough/Too many ‘Insta-sheds’

DEV NOTE: As noted in the Closed Beta Gridiron Notes, there was a bug causing super-wins to trigger too frequently early in the Closed Beta which was a primary contributor to the overpowered feeling. Looking at overall defensive gameplay, having a powerful pass rush is critical to the balance of the game, and the pass rush at launch is still going to be more powerful than it was in Madden NFL 22.

Hoping the sim stats feedback is legit. Really don't want to see unrealistic pass stats and QB rushing yards

Good start for launch. Just keep the momentum and give us some worthy live updates similar to this. It took a month or so for the fixes so I can wait 2 months for live updates as big as this. Don't slow down or go back to the old ways of slow progress an I'm happy
