Sounds good, I'm not worried about the QB thing. I got a plan for something like that already heh.

Quite simple actually. If they have quick audibles using the Right Stick from Current Gen the person on O will never be able to catch up to what you can switch to on defense.

Of course there is one thing I fear: some bastard finding a way to glitch and read the play diagrams every play even if you do not call the same defensive plays. I wouldn't put it past someone. They did it with jump the snap on Madden 07.

LOL

I love how whenever good news is released there are always a few jokers who do everything in their power to extinguish the excitement of others...


Sorry but...I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS GAME!!!

Defensive line rotations. Pass rushers coming in on 3rd downs, run stuffers coming in on short yardage. Right now, sans fatigue subs, Madden AI only uses a strict 4 man (or 3 man) line rotations. No one in the NFL does this.

There is an icon under Manning as he lines up (in fact, anyone who has a special weapon ability has an icon that looks similar to NBA Live's Superstar icons). When you start the game, Manning's icon is gray. The more the defense calls the same plays throughout the game, the more Manning's icon turns to gold. When the icon is completely gold, the guy controlling the offense can hold down the right trigger + LB to reveal the play art of the defense.

What is this? Vision Cone 2.0? If Manning constantly runs the same play, will a player like Champ Bailey's icon turn gold and allow him to see the offensive play? I hope it can be turned off. I've always went by the phrase "If they can't stop it, keep doing it" and I'm in no way talking about cheesing or exploiting a glitch.
