Has anybody had pass interference called either for or against them playing the cpu?

Who would buy Madden if the game was more realistic with their penalties? Use your heads guys. Nobody aside from the handful of simfreaks like the people on this board (who are a TINY minority of the Madden fanbase) would feel like sitting through all of those penalties in a game.

I do agree that there could be better balance with them. There's barely ANY penalties in the game. How many games have you ever seen without false starts and pass interference at times? I don't think it needs to be 100% realistic with the penalties, I don't even think it needs to be 80% realistic with them. If it could just somewhat implement them, that would be fine.

That's what sliders are for -- catering to different play preferences. If the sliders actually worked for penalties, which they don't, you could have your weird unrealistic penalty-free game, and we "simfreaks" can have real football.

the false starts are something I don't have a problem with... if your using the fake snap to keep the d-line from being quick off the ball you'll get a few of them (likewise the cpu seems to get a couple a game too)

Ive seen PI once so far and it was the cpu that commited it

I have only played about 7 games so far and I have only had it called in my favour once (with default sliders). The CPU DB blocked my WR1 from running the post route, I noticed it and threw in his direction and got the call. I have seen play which could be possibly called Interference but I threw to the other side of the field so it might be a good idea to throw the ball in the direction of the effect receiver if you spot it when making your reads.

Only once (against AI) in about 10 games
This needs fixing.

You'll never see many penalties even if maxed out, for example in 16 games with nearly all maxed I've seen no offensive interference, intentional grounding, or roughing the passer.

But I have had about three defensive PI's called on the CPU.

Yep. If sliders work, everybody wins.
