Re: Whats the big deal about "Route Based Passing"?

There's a lot of posts about what folks want, and what's needed, but I can guarantee there's no way I can enjoy Madden's throw anytime / straight line passing game. I hated it last year, the year before that, the year before that, ever since I used APF2K8's implementation. Others have pointed out other games passing mechanisms that allow gamers to do roughly the same thing (think there's a post about Fever having it way back on the original XBox). If locomotion is working correctly, then route based passing would be the icing on the cake for gameplay in Madden 11 (since blocking is fixed right?).

In APF, you have to let the ball go before the cut (just like in real life) because your receiver will only be open coming right out of his break and will usually be covered again a few steps after he completes his cut.

without it...Passing in MADDEN will continue to be lame....uninspired and just remain SIMPLISTIC in every way.

Its been unchanged for WAY too long and a BETTER mechanic or option is desperately needed.
