Madden 16 Pre-release Impressions Thread

I know they spent a lot of time with receivers and corners but 80% of my passes are dropped by receivers, it's starting to get annoying. I'm not pressing Aggressive catch or even possession catch. I'm letting the AI determine yet every ball my guys catch are broken up immediately. I know they're trying to make the game feel more alive, but I played 3 games were I only completed 8 passes on 25 attempts where the receiver dropped the pass after catching it! !!!!!

I completely agree. And I thought it was just me who noticed this. Why is the hitting and tackling so underpowered and soft for a football game? You can barely feel it and hear it. Haven't the nerds at EA ever watched a real football game. There is hardly any authenticity in the on-the-field sound effects department. Where's the realistic sound effects in the hard hits, tackles, helmets, and pads?


I really think EA needs to sit in a video room equipped with surround sound and watch those old school NFL Films that Steve and Ed Sabol used to make and then implement those sounds in the Madden series moving forward.


Hoping for a patch....
