Assuming still waiting, I haven't downloaded it, but reading through the thread with JP showing the graphic for dates and explanation that the schedule was delayed a bit by Dorian.

I brought this up to Dustin/KANE/Equipment Guru on Twitter after 1.13 and he said they were “on top of it”. The optimist in me hopes that they’ll use the 2019 version of the end zone (some red in the font, no helmet around the NFC logo) when it is corrected.

Perhaps they’re waiting for the first regular season game at Levi’s this Sunday to see if any changes are made from the preseason layout.

I know it’s a pretty trivial issue, but the fact that it was correct at launch contributes a lot to the frustration.

This would not have happened previously, as only 1 of the defenders would have been truly involved, while the other would have simply rag-dolled to the ground. Unfortunately, when running against the CPU, I am still only seeing 2 tacklers being able to affect my user ballcarrier. They still have a ways to go regarding tackling, but it does at least "look" more natural and organic. Also, as was needed, arm-bar stiff arm very much tuned down. As much fun as I loved using this mechanic with Zeke, it was OP. I can still pull off some nasty stiff arms, but timing is now essential as I believe it should be.

Sounds like it is nearing gameplay during beta.

Better believed I played, and the game finally has tackling, and much better gang tackling. I dont make comments on notes, without checking it out for myself.

Still seeing broken sacks and tackles being counted as assisted tackles/sacks.

Yep they are the new permanent endzones and they actually were in at launch. Like I said, I mentioned it to those guys on twitter and was shocked how fast they responded to me after update 1.10 came out. That’s the only reason why I still ask. I to think they won’t fix it now and that’s pretty frustrating because it was so nice having the field look like the old days.

I was more excited than I had any right to be when I saw the old font and design when I booted up Madden. I've been a 'Niners fan since 1986, and seeing the field in-game was such a nostalgia trip. The endzones it reverted to are associated with losing teams, Harbaugh era excluded of course. I'm just confused why the coding for the endzones remained in the game after the old font and design were programmed into it. Makes me wonder if Madden was programmed for SF to revert back in year 2 after the 100th season was over, even though that is not the plan in real life.

M20 has turned into a over-hyped arcade game.

I don't think this affects everyone. I was playing last night against thew Jets and I saw or Browns cant remember and Sheldon Richardson went down to one knee and was out for 2 quarters. Now that is the one and ONLY time I have seen a lineman go down. So I would say it happens they just need to tune the frequency. This is also on 32 team offline franchise and on PC with Sabo mods.
