Own both NCAA and Madden, have to give NCAA the edge in presentation, atmosopher and maybe graphics, but Madden's gameplay(which means the most to me) is now much more polished.
I ended up deleting the patches to play offline on NCAA and that helped, but I tired of the passing game (bullet passes, super leaping LB/DT swats, inability to rely on play action and general lack of variety), bad zone defense, and the fumbles. Madden is really slick in its movement and pursuits and much better in the passing game. The atomosphere can be stale, but i turn off the announcers and that actually has helped.
Anyway, i want to thank those on the forum who explained the benefits of patch 5, as I had sold the game back in Sept. and just bought it over Xmas and am thankful.

This is a serious question to all the guys out there that are enjoying Madden 11, is it just me or .......
Don't you guys get frustrated if you call man defense against a 2 WR set with both WR on the both side and a LB covers the inside WR?
Have you guys tried using defensive assignments to setup certain match ups with certain WR/TE/RB and have plays where WR's are completely uncovered or your LB/SS/FS have switched positions on the field?
Have you guys ever picked a nickel or dime man defense to have extra DBs on the field to cover elite TE only to have the CB cover the RB out the backfield and a LB still covering the TE?
Do you guys constantly see receivers get bumped and grabbed well beyond 5 yds with NO pass interference call?
Do you guys ever have the player you are controlling just do unexplained movements or unresponsive pauses that have you wondering if your PS3/360 controller is malfunctioning?
Have you guys ever pressed the button to switch to the closet defender to the ball but feel like it just randomly placed you on whatever defender in the general area?
Lastly, have you guys ever played a game of Madden, even against another HUM player but regardless of how well you or they play, it seems it doesn't matter because the "fix is in" and the winner has already be predetermined?
I have no intention of trying to affect anyone's enjoyment by listing a bunch of "glitches" or whatever, I know there are threads for that. I am actually hoping the opposite, that maybe some of you guys can give me some pointers on looking past these type things.
I started back to playing Madden 11 offline franchise with a buddy on Wednesday after reading a few good things about the latest patch. He is on vacation for like another week so we have played alot of Madden these last two days, in between girlfriend, wife and children obligations. We hadn't played much since around October, so I was really looking foward to enjoying the game post patch.
Thing is, I'm not and those things I listed are just so ridiculous to me. I can honestly overlook some of the other stuff that we all know isn't quite right but things like constantly, no pass interference after seeing the TE get mugged 10-12 yds down field, C'mon! LOL
I would just love to know how some of you guys are dealing with these issues or new ways I might play so I don't really notice these so much. Right now, Madden is the only NFL we got and I would love to find a way to deal with it until August 2011 and hope Madden 12 is better for me.
