But old issues persist. OLD ISSUES PERSIST!!!!!

My problem is they are simple to fix and to have the same issue means NO ONE worked on it and just said to us as users it. I put in the bleep just so you know.



First the opening sequence that you are forced into while the game installs is ridiculous.

How do you NOT have an option for people to no participate???? I didn't need that waste of time.



I'm putting this in quick without details to try and keep this short because this post could consume as much space as all post previous to mine.



Custom Playbooks are STILL BROKEN. THE SAME ISSUE. Hail Mary instead of Shotgun.

Yes you put in some new plays and took out others, but how do you IGNORE custom playbook editor????



Now my next question is when I score a running play from this newly designated Hail Mary will it STILL think I scored from a HAIL MARY PASS???????????



This will mean calling audible the plays will now show up again as Hail Mary plays.

And don't hand me the solution is "it is all about how you delete plays in the playbook"

This game makes how much money and you mean to tell me they can't put some money in a developer to fix the custom playbook editor where you can't create a playbook from scratch, sort your play sets, sort your plays????? Are you serious????? Come on guys. Stop getting all caught up in the eye candy and call the game out. I could careless about seeing tattoos when you have a key component STILL lagging.

Sorting is a SIMPLE and BASIC. It should not have to asked for.



This issues bleeds into game play so I take huge issue with it sill existing.



Practice needs work as well. It is too cumbersome when you want to create a playbook especially since you can't sort your plays after you've created one. If I put in BIG and decide I want to replace it with Deuce Wings.... unless I put it in last it will not throw my playbook order out of wack and it does matter because I play by audible not hot routes (except blocking). I find that to be more realistic than hot routing everyone to a new play. It wouldn't be so bad if there was a penalty for doing so such as players running the wrong route or something when overdone.



Anyway this makes no sense to me.

Oh.... and the playbook after taking out all the plays the counts says there are 50+ plays still in there.

I have 2 formations. I think a total of 5 plays or so the game will not let you remove. So why am I seeing 50+ plays still in my playbook??? This makes no sense. It also proves there was work performed on this tool and just not a good job. / 8



Practice should have been merged with the playbooks. Practice should have a different UI to allow users to quickly select other plays in the same formation rather than jumping back to the default.



Let me dictate my practice with a better flow.



Did the fake pump go away? I guess it did since double pressing now is a passing trajectory thing.

It isn't like the pump fake fooled the "AI" which again makes me question its true existence.



I haven't played a game yet because I like to have my plays together first. I don't play randomly.

When I complete my first playbook, Hail Mary and all, I will give it a shot so I can see the errors in presentation. I don't see the commentary being better. Sorry. I just don't trust that until I SEE it.

I want to see the commentary when I winning 35-0 . I want to see the commentary on a comeback, two minute drill, etc...



I also want to see the highlights and instant replays. The highlights in the past despite request are TOO SHORT and never show the play. How can you call that a highlight when it doesn't highlight the play in its entirety????



Will safeties be a saved highlight that does not get deleted????????????????

INTs should not be deleted either.



We will see. I will post some screenshots later when I get time of the playbook editor.

Again, I shouldn't have to pick a particular playbook. Read what it says under custom playbooks.

To me that is FALSE advertisement of the tool because it does not allow what it claims.



Peace.



Also is it me or does the game seem SLOW? I play All Madden on Normal and it has been fine for me for years. This year it seems slow.



This game is about eye candy folks. I really do question the AI IF it truly even exist in this game.

I would recommend trying an actual game before unloading on it. You probably have a valid concern with custom playbook but I'll be honest. I don't use custom play books. I think the gameplay will surprise you.
