Anyone turn off gameflow?

[37]

Turned it off after one series....i like being able to pick my own play

One of my favorite features from Madden 11 was setting up gameplans and assigning them to the CPU teams because of how flawed their own play calling was. Deep routes too often, CB blitzs or engage 8 too often (which you can see coming and exploit on offense).

I still have not recieved my retail copy (Toys R Us sucker) but from the demo I already liked what I saw with gameflow and how I will be able to install my own custom gameplan into the feature. I also was very pleased with the CPu playcalling overall. So I don't even feel i will need to assign them gameplans this year.

Now I can just focus on my teams week to week matchup and rank plays i want called in the down and distance situations.

I love the challege of having to execute the play called. You can always audible out.....and the conventional option is always there if it is a really big situation and you really do not like the options in your gameplan at that particualr moment.

For me it breaks up the monotney of playcalling and adds a nice sim element.

I will really dive into it and see how this years itteration feels.

I've had Gameflow on myself from Thursday until last night. I don't have any particular problem with it. I think the desire for more 'control' made me turn it off. From limited time using the 'my gameplan' option, I'm thinking this is the way to go. If you stick to your selection of plays, you still place a premium on strategizing and executing . I'm gonna play with it more when I get home... but I had a great time with it last night. I like the aspect of not having your entire playbook at your disposal. It's all a moot point though if you find any "money plays" and place them all over your gameplan.

This is how I play as well, and in fact it's largely how coaches call games in real life. Well at least in the first half anyway, then adjustments + how the original game plan is faring will dictate what they call.

Until they do this I will not be using this feature...

How do you turn off Gameflow.

I don't trust the CPU to catch the ball... Why would I trust it to make play call decisions?

GameFLow is ALWAYS OFF on my console.

Later

Should be a setting in your Game Options.
