Run/Pass commit under threat

Re: Run/Pass commit under threat

One of what guys? Somebody who disagrees with you?

If you're happy with the game, great. I'm pleased for you. I played it last year and enjoyed the game when it was released. Then it was patched. And patched again. And all of those were geared directly for the online, competitive crowd. As soon as the tournament season was done they patched in a few things to make it right but that was a gesture.

The different gameplay styles this year just made the intention of the last patch more transparent. It's been happening for years though.

Edit: oops, you are the op lol

My statement about agenda posting is valid, but you didn't come into the thread to derail it

What statement about what agenda? You're struggling to make coherent sense here... try again.

Posting while watching the Ravens game, my bad.

Before I realized you were the OP I said that you were being one of those guys that comes into a thread with an agenda. But this is your thread so that is not fitting here.

Regardless of that, your statement that simulation football is irrelevant to the Madden team is wrong, one only needs to look at the features they have added over the years. But you don't care about that, you are on a mission to bash the game. So set aside anything that differs from your narrative.

You're wrong. There's no narrative. Just opinions based on facts. Looking for an argument is counterproductive for all of us, including your Ravens who need your support

Ravens offense is dreadful. It almost feels like punishment watching them.

Re: Run/Pass commit under threat

Re: Run/Pass commit under threat

Run/Pass committ is probably the most unsim feature in the game. It basically turns the game into Tecmo Bowl. You have a 25% chance of calling the right committ and if its a run in the direction you chose the play gets completely shut down.

Its really just a band-aid feature put in instead of giving players situational awareness. If the AI didn't fall for playaction on 3rd and 20 every time then we wouldn't need Pass Committ at all.

And regardless of whether you think its sim or not the best solution would be EA giving CFM commishes the option to deactivate it in League Settings. The idea that EA will be able to make a Sim mode that the entire community agrees on is a farce. The only way to get a Sim mode that makes every user and every CFM happy is to give consumers as many customization options as possible.

Re: Run/Pass commit under threat

It's absolutely true. The XP system removes busts from the game since you can forcefeed a player to a 90 overall in game and in focus training

I consider "busts" to be those guys who fall well short of expectations, because they never improve. They almost always have the Slow development trait. Good luck getting those guys to 90 Overall (unless you jack up the XP sliders to an unrealistic level). And if you do "force feed" such a player, you're wasting development time (practice reps) and resources that could be better used to develop players who improve at a faster rate.

Because everything is broken (or reversed).

Re: Run/Pass commit under threat

The XP slider/traits can always be adjusted in CFM. If you want busts, you can easily make them.

They shouldn't be relying on us or even talking our thoughts into consideration in what's realistic or sim anyways... Realism and simulation have nothing to do with opinion or feelings.... Its straight up FACT and SCIENCE... we can't pick and choose what's realistic and what's not...

Except they have to sale the game. Sales drive decisions more than facts and science.
