Me too. As someone who doesn't have much gaming time, this is actually a cooler than I originally thought. It also seems to have the perfect amount of plays with 15M 15SEC accelerated clock. Madden 19 was a tad high on total plays with the same settings.

Re: Walking to the line of scrimmage

I have gotten used to it....but on defense it does make on the fly adjustments past 2 max impossible for my older thumbs.

This was a move made for the competitive crowd as I have to believe there was a lot of crying that the very best head to head Madden gurus out there made so many adjustments that made beating them extremely tough, that it borders on cheese.

I don't know....just spit balling.

But the real reason may be because they just said "screw it" in fixing the awkward player movement as they went up to the line. It was funky on Madden 19.

Who knows. But it was done.

Toggle option? LOL......yeah right. They have moved on from us dinosaur pioneer Madden players who basically supported the game so much to allow it to become the behemoth it is today.

It is what it is. I am enjoying the game warts and all.

It definitely has sped up the game in a positive way for me too in terms of getting in more games. So there is that big pro to it. More time to play more games is always a good thing.

Most definitely! The game moves at a perfect pace now, at least for me. I kind of house rule myself and don't make changes at the line, the only thing I do is on D switch to a LB but that's it.

Plus no more coach shots after each play and the shortened end of quarter stadium views has me pretty happy with this part of the game.

Re: Walking to the line of scrimmage

The only issue I have with the sped-up walk to the line is in no-huddle, as many others have mentioned. Most times I can't change the play and get everyone set before the snap. Felt the same way about it in the beta.

They'll likely add a toggle at some point is my guess

Re: Walking to the line of scrimmage

They could fix this if they had cpu qbs not instantly hike the ball and instead id the mike, make line adjustments, hot routes, etc
