To be honest I don't think they know how to fix it. But in my opinion I still think this game is solid and am glad I bought it. To each there own.

It says competitive game style though. Not sim. So by that I'd think it won't affect sim play style. But then again who knows.

Players are still walking through other players bodies lying on the field when getting up from tackles and pile ups smh.* Such an immersion killer.* Really wish they would clean up the collision detection & contextual awareness.* It's really holding the game back & makes me not even want to play it.* I'm gonna keep saying this, they had this stuff cleaned up in Madden 16 for the most part so it's not like it can't be done!

Clint has been intimating for a while now that they've figured some things out on the CPU QB AI front. The question is if it's in an upcoming tuner or the mid/late November patch. Unfortunately many of the OS solo CFM heads will have mostly likely totally moved on from playing Madden by then.

Huuuuuuu...guess I'll try madden again to see how this patch plays out, I really want to love madden every year but I always get disappointed and thanks to nba 2k amd mlb the show I know AI can be so awesome and lifelike but it seems like madden refuses to give me a somewhat real football experience. If they market it as an arcade football game I would probably feel different but they say year after year that it's a "SIM" football game...really EA???

Seems to play the same to me. Completion percent seems a little higher but i didnt notice anything different good or bad. Same madden. Its a shame they put out an update that didnt improve anything.

We can also look at it that it didnt make things worse so thats good.

That has been my biggest fear with patches. Everything has been playing properly for me so far. Enjoying it quite a bit. Fumbles forced/recovered through blocks and on kick/punt returns are a bit buggy when it comes to tracking those stats, but everything else has been great.

Has anyone noticed their punter showing 0 downs played? Maybe it is because I've been carrying a 2nd punter?
