I’m Already tired of throwing picks cause my WR won’t attack the ball.

Did they do something maybe in the background?

I ask cause I have gone 3 games with no INTs, and 12tds. Lots and lots of swats to passes that were picks before.

Are you playing in an online franchise or offline? It's possible if it's online as they can roll out fixes and minor tweaks on their servers but it has to be rolled out in a title update/patch for offline play.

Offline.

Just when it was going good, I ended a game, it went to dashboard, and my save got corrupted. I deleted the corrupted autosave, and suddenly my other franchise saves are gone too.

Here's to starting over.....

I only use the classic passing

I know, I'm saying you can correct it with FreeForm so you won't have the issue anymore.

Ya know...I remember watching a video a while back when I was trying to find out why I couldn't get FFP to work for me. Dude was saying he doesn't really care about the routes. He uses FFP to throw receivers into open space. Makes me wonder if that's what you're supposed to do with that. I never use LT/L2 when passing so....

Not a fan of the stuff on the screen. Classic pass leading has always worked before. Needs to be fixed

I use the new passing mechanics with no indicators on screen, it works great for me.

free form passing *IS* the fix. Classic passing is passing to a person, free form passing is passing to a spot.

My "classic passing" is to the wrong persons too much of the time, then, which still means it's broke / sliders not working.

This is becoming just like when Fight Night changed punching controls completely. A lot of people were justifiably upset. Other people rather kept narcissistically defending the changes and trying to control what everyone should prefer or want to do instead.

I understand where you are coming from. It is what it is though. Sometimes companies change the way games play and if you don't want to adapt then it's something you will have to make the call yourself in regards to moving on from the game or not.

I don't know if classic passing was ever exactly there where freeform can be, I think that's why they introduced it.

Madden never really had it right by throwing to a person instead of a spot, the freeform passing corrects that.

I sympathize with your plight, I've had the same issues in FPS and other games. But I basically told myself either I'm going to change or just not play this game.

Kind of reminds me when everyone started not inverting the FPS controls and I was used to PC games, I had to train myself to adapt to that and it was not easy but I finally did.

In simulation mode, classic passing should work though as it should use the ratings of the QB. It worked fine in M21 and M22 so in theory, it should work the same in M23.

I haven't played M23 much as I'm waiting on patching, but is it really broken in M23?

Re: I’m Already tired of throwing picks cause my WR won’t attack the ball.

Yeah, didn't we have one Madden that gave us "tendencies" to throw to a spot or else just throwing more direct to the WR? I would like to explore that, use the classic style and then just only other thing is that ratings matter to decide accuracy of the function. I feel like that would keep it simpler for the user (probably not the coding, admittedly).

Not hating, but what's going on really feels like Rockstar/RedDeadRedemption controls are making their way into the game. It's cool for those of you that can use it, but I'm not able to so much. It's the same reason I can't do open world gaming as much anymore or the FPS locate, lock and fire stuff. My eyes and sense of balance just don't let me do what I used to could handle even ten years ago. I get nauseous after not very long. The straight ahead camera styles allowed by Madden, NBA2k, NHL and the static, side view of FIFA are more in my wheelhouse. It's a struggle because I love and want to play those open world games, still. I'll give them a go here and there, and I end up paying for it. Being human is awesome!

I can totally see this. Makes perfect sense honestly. Not easy for me to do but I certainly believe that's how the game is supposed to be played.

Re: I’m Already tired of throwing picks cause my WR won’t attack the ball.

I hear you, but, still, isn't the whole point of being able to see the routes/field art when you hold RT down exactly per throwing to a spot? I hit that button, I see where and when my WR are "supposed to" cut/stop/turn, and therefore I know to either lead them there and/or time throwing to "a spot." It makes the free form passing just seem like a new way to do the same thing that was already there.

At the very least, it's code on top of code that serves the same function. I can absolutely see how that screws up the original code, now.
