Madden 18 "How To", Tips, and Tricks

Just a cohesive place for any questions or pointers. How do we throw high or low now?

Use LB/L1? (Not sure about PS4) and then push up on the LS for high and down for low.

M2M is looking really good. COver 2 man... Robber for inside coverage.

What does man align do? Every time I use it nothing happens. I always assumed it aligned guys when you were in man-to-man but that doesn't ever happen.

Man Align is supposed to adjust Man cover so that each defender is lined up across from who they are covering.. You may notice when you show play art, some man to man lines are across the field or essentially a defender is not directly in front of the offensive player they are covering...

Man align will either move the defender in line with the receiver they are to cover, or re-asign the man coverage of each defender to cover the receiver they are closest to.

Hope that helps..the mechanic sort of confuses me at times.

With zones it will cause the defender to align like they are in man.

Yeah, that's exactly what I was under the impression but for whatever reason whenever I try to do it, it never works. I'll have to move my guy manually over and then hope he doesn't go back to his original spot. I'll have to record a clip next time.

There are plays where I have noticed it doesn't work.
