Lower the kick accuracy slider. I had a good laugh the other other day then the CPU could have tied the game but actually missed the extra point. It hit the goal post to the right. I'm sitting there "did he just miss the extra point?"

Also we need a better punt game as well. I dont know if it''s the camera view or way, but I 've never seen a punt block. It dosent matter if the other team is not protecting and you all out punt block you cant ever block a punt.

Redoing the kicking meter was on the community wish list which has so far been followed almost item for item. Might get lucky!

some variables would be nice. Misplaced snaps, bad snaps, sloppy holds, etc... not every snap and hold is text book perfect, every time.

WHAT ABOUT THE PUNTING GAME? IF I AM PLAYING SOMEBODY AND THEY ARE ABOUT TO PUNT THE BALL AND THEY DONT LINE UP IN A PROTECTION MODE AND I DO A PUNT BLOCK YOU STILL CANT BLOCK A PUNT NO MATTER WHAT. I WANT IT TO BE MORE EXCITING WHEN IT COMES TO THE PUNTING GAME AND ALLOW US TO ACTUALLY BLOCK PUNTS OR AT LEAST GET DECENT PRESSURE.

Re: Will the kicking game in Madden ever be challenging?

I don't want it to be challenging just for the sake of an added challenge. I just want it to more closely reflect a kicker's actual accuracy percentage.

In my franchises I am actually not too far off from a realistic percentage, so personally, I do not think anything drastic needs to occur. I think when I miss it is on a 50+ yard kick, so missing on shorter kicks occasionally, would help with realism.
