Why is the slant money play is still there?

It works on All Madden too I think.

I'm glad to report that all-Madden solves this. You can get one or two completions, but that third one will go the other way.

I've got to get a good set of sliders for all-Madden though. I move the ball better than I ever have on all-Madden, but I can't seem to sustain drives, and I can't make the crucial third-down defensive play.

Still, I think I'll be able to get this game tuned in on all-Madden

Really good game.

It bothers me, money plays, slants, in NCAA the long bomb. Why does it bother me simple. EA has made this game for 15 years we should no have to worry every year about $$$$ plays period.

You underestimate the coding of a game this complicated. This isn't like making a game to simulate checkers.

man, i'm agreeing with you 2 posts in a row Erod

yeah, I've taken Artificial Intelligence classes, and this stuff isn't easy...i can only imagine how complicated it is to simulate a game of football, and still eat up as little cpu time as necessary (gotta do both graphics and ai and gameplay at once...lots in memory and to process)

You understand EA could do this if they didn't focus half their energey on useless fluff like SS mode..

superstar mode isn't taking the AI programmers away from that...i really don't understand how the fact Superstar mode exists suddenly takes away from the other areas
