You won’t get that until the game actually releases. This is just the trial version.

Cowboys 20, Miami 24

Jaguars 17, Packers 27

Chiefs 28, Ravens 31

Cowboys, Jaguars and Chiefs are teams i played as

Gameplay feel fantastic and smooth

Graphic look great

CPU playing so smarter on offense and defense

Just my opinion but this is a massive upgrade over Madden 21. As a human vs AI player, the game is MUCH more realistic with play calling, qb play, etc. I haven’t seen “Robo QB” at all. Also, remember how all those sideline throws that would lead the receiver out of bounds? Haven’t seen that yet either! Thank god.

Only played 1 CPU vs CPU game. Initial thoughts:

1. Deep passing game is better… QBs actually lead the receivers on deep throws.

2. Play calling logic is still bad and unchanged. Teams still continue to constantly go for it on 4th and 2. Another time, a team had 4th and goal from the 24 yard line, and still went for it.

3. Penalties still non-existent on default sliders.

4. Power backs play like power backs now.

5. Running QBs seem overpowered, but still a small sample size.

I’ve played 3 games and have seen multiple penalties in each game.

I maxed all penalties except for RTP which on 99 there were 5 penalties in the first 5 minutes.

Live playbooks is now a setting in the game options so no more having to turn that on before each game.

AM defaults are playing great OOTB, so far not much I see tweaking but of course I need to play many more games. The big thing for me is the pass rush is there.

Need to finish my M21 current CFM, the newness of M22 has me not wanting to play M21.
