Will we see the RPO (run/pass option types of plays) in Madden 17?

I'm pretty sure that's exactly how it was in NCAA a few years back. I remember vividly realizing that on some of the option passes and the PA reads you could still hand the ball off. THe bad thing was you would get a ton of yards every time so i hardly did it cause it was cheese.

That might part of the issue and why those options were taken out/not brought over to Madden. We've (meaning the community groups and devs) have had a lot of conversations about how to best update offensive playbooks, so it's a problem they are working on solutions for.

Yeah I remember a while back. Might have been Donny Moore but big changes like this and changing something small effects everything else on the field. I would love to see this hit Madden. The more realism the better. Just hope they get penalties/sliders stock fixed first. The money maker in Madden is MUT so realism sometimes doesn't hit the top of the list sadly.

I'd like to see these as well, but it is not as simple as adding plays to the playbook. It would take new lines of code in the defensive AI.

But running a packaged read option/bubble screen/streak would be pretty sweet. High possibility of online exploits and rage though.

I loved these types of plays in NCAA......the more the better
