The first game of the season was a great game, actually, and Wilson looked close to real life Wilson in that game, even (before this patch), and he beat me on the last play of the game with a 20 yard TD pass as time expired. So, now I’m playing them in the nfc title game with this new patch. HOLY CRAP!! Lol. Seriously, Wilson was ready to run. I️ don’t have the stats in front of me, but he had 50 yards rushing, easy, and made some serious jukes a few times, lol. Occasionally, I’d say he ran too soon, but that’s better than what the game has been so far, so that’s ok. This game went down to the wire as well, actually. I️ went down 20 in the first half with 3 ints. And, Wilson had 3 TD passes in that time. I️ came back in the 2nd half, fought like hell, but Wilson beat me, again. Specifically, Wilson. His scrambling helped them A LOT. Picking up a few first downs on 3rd down with his feet. I️ lost 45-42. Their D was prob the bigger story of the game (even though they gave up 42, it was a tough game). But, AFAIC, Wilson absolutely looked like Wilson and his scrambling was much different from anything I’ve seen in M18 up to this point. Only 1 game, but it happened to be against a mobile QB in a title game, so I️ think it was a good benchmark. I️ play all-pro default sliders, fyi. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah, I started my Packers CFM, so 1st game of the season was against Wilson.
He killed me with his legs...2 rushing touchdowns. I lost 17-13, throwing a late pick in the red zone. He rushed 10 times for about 54 yards. 6 were designed runs, 4 were avoiding pressure. I ended up with 4 sacks, bit 0 were from statue QB.
DEFINITELY like playing a different game.
Most of you know how critical I've been of Madden, so I am eating some crow by saying this.
Is it perfect? Nope.
However, in the games I tested the patch in, and my first CFM game, I have to say these were the best games of Madden I have EVER played.
Now, if I can tune my penalty sliders a bit, and EA can beef up presentation and CFM in 19, we may finally have something here.
So, GOOD JOB EA. Words I never thought I'd hear myself say.

Does human OL still pancake unrealistic the cpu DL. Ending games with 5+ pancakes?

Others have already articulated an impression that struck me after playing a whole bunch of games post-patch. It feels like a completely different game in a good way.

I️ should’ve captured some clips of that sea game, but didn’t think to. I️ captured a few big plays from Freeman, but none from Wilson. Here’s a snapshot for proof of Wilson’s running, however. Lol. 15 for 110. Pretty sure they’re going to have to nerf running QBs, soon. . But, in all seriousness, that one game was solid. In the pre-patch game (I️ also lost) against sea, Wilson did NOT run all over the place. This feels like a pretty fair comparison. And, just overall, I️ enjoyed the gameplay a lot. I’m pretty happy where the gameplay is right now. Again, all-pro default, also. No messing with sliders, and I️ get enough of a challenge. I️ went 15-1, of course, but I️ had some fun close games in that mix. But, if cpu QBs start playing better with this patch, M18 is worth getting at this point. And, if u have Xbox x, it’s even better/smoother.



Here’s a big Freeman run

Is there any way to include injuries on All-Pro Competitive? I’m playing with the slider up to 80 and haven’t seen one.
