What has been fixed in madden 16 gameplay wise?

Re: What has been fixed in madden 16 gameplay wise?

It's definitely going to be more challenging this year going up against the CPU. In the 6-7 videos I've watched from this year USER VS CPU, I can tell the CPU:

- Does a MUCH better job of staying in bounds along the sideline. They cut up field with much more urgency to get yards
- Does a better job of stuffing the inside run (HB Trap doesn't seem as OP)
- Does a better job sensing pressure/taking off and scrambling for yards

Those 3 things will make for a more competitive CFM.

The big things I want to know are:
- Is the CPU still overly accurate? Or will we see a fair amount of mis fires?
- Is the CPU able to get the ball down field or will we see dink and dunk again this year?

This needs to be confirmed by Rex ASAP.

Receivers not running out of bounds after a out or flat route, is the biggest improvement I'm looking forward too. It's due to the RAC catch animation.

I was just watching some gameplay videos and I saw a couple of out patterns and the receiver turned up field and did not go out of bounds.

One thing that is troubling is the WR's standing around and not blocking on run plays. I saw two plays were the play went towards the WR and he was just standing there with defenders all around.

I also don't think the player models look very good. I always thought they did a good job making the players look good, but this year not so much.

I am looking forward to seeing that as well. It is annoying when WRs run out of bounds when they could have turned it up field to gain more yards.

I hope that every team doesn't play the same way when going up against the cpu. Also am hoping that the inaccurate passes have to improved this year since last year the cpu would go 23/23 or 24/27.

I agree with you, but sliders fixed that last issue for me.

Re: What has been fixed in madden 16 gameplay wise?

I'm confused. There isn't an ability to challenge a play?

There is, but all the challenge system lets you do is press "challenge..." it doesn't let you challenge specific aspects of the play. So maybe you throw an easy interception to your opponent, they run it back, looks like they step out at the 50, but keep running and make it to your 1 yard line. The current challenge system might assume you want to challenge whether there was an interception or not, whereas you wanted to challenge the spot of the ball. Not saying for sure this is how Madden 15 would treat it, but it's an indicative example.

I'd imagine it's probably not fixed for Madden 16, since it seems most of the features are out of the bag already. At the end of the day, I think the whole thing is kind of silly--the game knows exactly what happened on each play, so putting in wrong calls and creating a challenge system on top of it is inherently going to have some issues with it.

Wow, that is crazy. Basically you can challenge the first circumstance but nothing afterwards. Thanks for the reply. That's needs fixed.

I never found the perfect sliders for QB accuracy, but I gave up months ago. I tried 10 accuracy, too accurate. I tried 5 accuracy, and there were just too many wild throws.

I probably should've tried 7, huh?

The other problem I have is most of the time there is some sort of questionable call (not a fumble for instance) the game will tell you that there is nothing to challenge.

Another thing I've noticed is that the CPU will win the challenge 98% of the time in a booth review or CPU challenge.

Seems Madden is potentially just now catching up to much of the game play that was in NCAA 14...Will have to see if it is actually done well..

Just the tackle mechanics in NCAA 14 is way better than M15, for example...Separation is better..WR/DB interactions are better than in M15..

MAdden has better graphics, but NCAA 14 beats Madden in most every other area..

RB's in NCAA 14 don't get hung up on the backs of offensive linemen, as far as I can recall...

I remember nfl2k5 the challenge system had tons of things to choose from what to challenge
