Madden NFL 16 Title Update #1 Available Now, Roster Update Scheduled For Friday

09:28 AM - September 9, 2015 by Steve_OS

The much anticipated Madden NFL 16 patch has arrived for both Xbox One (732 MB) and PlayStation 4 (749 MB). Check out the list of updates below, which include improvements and fixes for gameplay, Connected Franchise, Madden Ultimate Team, and more.

UPDATE: Just received official word from EA.

Quote:


	Players will not need to restart their Connected Franchises to see most of the fixes in the Title Update. However, due to draft classes being randomly generated, you will have to restart if you want the changes to your current draft class, as we cannot retroactively change those ratings.

Also of note, the roster update is scheduled to arrive on Friday, according to Rex Dickson, creative director of the Madden NFL series.

Let us know what you are seeing!

But I take it you had to go through the machinations of competing with the CPU to sign him and that contract had some guaranteed money?

damn, small bug but very annoying.

also, the big important issu. Does anyone played a full game on CFM? how the boost rating are working?

If they just capped it at 99 means i can use tebow and get 99 acc by only throwing a TD and completing the weely goal? smh if that is the case.

I friggin give up. Patch sounds about as bugged as cfm was before. Can they please hire more QA people at EA with all that money? seriously

Very awesome stream right now. He is showing all changes and such!

The only downfall I have seen is there was some pretty good players left unsigned from free agency. In year 3 Marcus Mariota is a 88

Was XP fixed, it is still low amount ????

That is my best guess...after further review OG and centers appear to be ok...RT not so bad and LT depending on stats good or bad:

Examples:
Luke Joeckel gave up 28 sacks 62 pass block started off 78
Greg Robinson gave up 29 sacks 59 pass block started off 73
Michael Oher gave up 34 sacks 64 pass block started off 78
Eugene Monroe gave up 33 sacks 78 pass block started off 90
Cordy Glenn 27 sacks 87 pass block started off 92
Erick Flowers 24 sack 77 pass block started off 82

All double digit sack allowed were LT with 3 RT thrown in OG C's none had double digit sacks allowed hence the non issue..the issue isn't regression is unreal, it's sim sacks allowed..which causes these guys to lose so much..

Here is what i dont get about this. Why did they adjust the rookie QBs deep accuracy issue then? If they are going to up the speeds of stock roster, why not just up the qb deep acc as well then? That dont make alot of sense really.

also where is this said interview?

Disappointed that the defensive camera zoom issue wasn't addressed, but never the less extremely happy they fixed most of the issues in CFM, now I can start one.

They do not work properly in CFM. In play now if you set your running back at 99/100 you'll see him come off the field after 1 or at most 2 runs. In CFM you will not see him come off the field until he is completely gassed after 5 or 6 straight runs. Fatigue works but auto subs do not work in CFM.

Rex replied to me on twitter the other day about the d camera issue, he told me the presentation team is looking at it and working on it.This was after they were dont with this patch so i knew it wouldnt be in this one.

Put fatigue at 60.

Is this an issue...I toggled in and out of the defensive camera all the time. I personally don't use it much but when I scroll through the D pad for angles I go through that one

Doesn't change the fact that the auto subs are broken.

They work for me when fatigue is at 60.

Yes its a HUGE issue for those of us who love to play with only the d camera, entire thread about it along with videos i posted.http://www.operationsports.com/forum...-cant-use.html

as said above, Rex informed me presentation team is looking into this now

I'm glad they didn't take that route. Otherwise all qb will be good and the qb accuracy that was realistic this year would be the same arcade than before. On other hand I can deal with some speed boost. It doesn't change the flow of the game as much as making all qb goods.

Hopefully next year they get both down. Speed and accuracy without messing things up.

No, as it was in the preseason rather than the offseason free agent system, I was only allowed to sign him to a 1 year deal for the set amount of money. No negotiating or anything.

Agreed, but this is a succesful work around.

Now there are 2 ways to look at this problem.

You can complain that we shouldn't have to do this, which is true.

Or you can enjoy the game for what it is knowing that there is a way to at least diminish the issue.

I choose the latter personally.
