I really hate it when people lie about stuff like this. Then the developers come in and read this and claim that they won't do anything about it because not everyone is experiencing the problem.

What agenda do these people have?

If I had a tin foil hat, I'd claim they were in here as representatives of EA, nothing else would make sense behind the motivation to lie about things like this.

EA knows its an issue..they just dont care about fixing it this year. I asked Clint about this issue earlier this year and he didnt seem concerned about fixing it for 15. Whats funny is I think its all ratings related.

For example, I rarely see holding penalties with starters but anytime there are injuries and a back up is playing, I see holding calls. I played with a backup RT with the Colts last week and he was called for holding 3 times.

Also, has anyone seen a holding call on a pass play? I only see them on runs in 15.

We will probably see PI penalties next year because they are working on WR/DB interactions for 16 but I'm not sure holding will return.

Well I'll send you a PM next year before buying and have you give me the straight dope on penalties and a few other things before I purchase.

Too hard to filter through this stuff and find out honest answers.

LOL. Where did you get your magic copy of Madden? No one else here seems to have one that gives you 5 holding calls a game.

All jokes aside, the beauty of next gen is you can make videos as proof. I'd love to see you show me even 3 holding calls in the same game.

I just started a CFM last night using Josh's settings/sliders and saw a good number of holding calls over the course of a couple games. So I'd recommend those settings if you aren't already using them

How many are you seeing on average? Are you seeing them during pass plays?
