Good point. And if someone is that committed to video games they'll do what it takes to find the answers they need. If they hate Madden, good, hopefully they stop buying it so EA can aim the game more towards hardcore gamers.

It's a shame they already locked "Looking for new mods" thread.

This dude has my vote.

EA cares about these Noobs, so should we... Having a broken feature turn off people will result in EA spending another year concocting another new scheme to get people to play

To my understanding and use of the "My Skill" it adusts itself after every game you play. So after 3 or so games the game should have adjusted itself to the skill level of the player. The intial IQ test is just a starting point so just because one does well in the test doesn't mean one is locked in at that difficulty. After a few games the IQ will adjust based on the player's skill. Thus, I don't believe it is broken.

Have your "friend" play a few games and when the IQ has adjusted to his skill tell him to leave the settings alone after each game.

The rushing test is so broken I challenge anyone to actual TRY and fail it. I did just that and still got an all pro rating.

Seriously I tried on PURPOSE to get tackled and found it was harder to try and GET tackled than it was to try and not get tackled.

I dont understand how that running drill is any representation of a game situtation at all. When will u have 3 blockers just steamrolling defenders and clearing a path for u to run. Nobody chasing you from behind or the sides or anything. ITs really dumb and if u just walk straight slowly youll get all madden on it. I didnt need to use one juke/spin to get a td everytime.

Good point OPD, it may eventually work itself out I guess, but the problem is that these people don't play a few games. My friend was giving Madden a chance after how many years since 2k5?!? The my skill and robo qb made him put it down quickly which sucks because I have been looking for more local games lately due to the ability to play on different skill levels. I am loving that feature as now anyone can play me, heck I have even lost a few. Here's an example...

Played my nephew, I was on all madden and he was on all pro....
Played as the Eagles because I haven't ever really used them....
He played as the Browns and Jamal Lewis ran all over me lol....

Shouldn't have got cocky

I am not to the point where I am giving rewinds tho...

to fail running - run straight out of bounds behind the line of scrimmage
