Official Madden NFL 12 Info Thread

[crabcola]

Did I miss something?? When did this become a thread for questions about gameplay?? Everyone keeps asking, "did this get fixed or does this happen?" How would anyone know if the game isn't even out yet? Seriously??

[Faizon]

People want to ask small questions without making a new thread

When you get the game, Xbox live will make you download the most recent roster update.

Personally, I didn't use it on defense. Everytime I did, when the cpu used 3 or more wr's, I was always in base 3-4 defense. It just didn't match up when I use it. 2. Does the cpu use dime defense when simming games finally? Everytime I sim a season, the 4th or 5th CB never have a game played. Unless there's an injury. That leads me to: 3. Is the game played stat finally addressed? Players on special teams seem to never get a game played. Unless the get in on defense. Even the kicker only gets a game played, if he attempts a FG. Never just an extra point. Shouldn't it count, for just stepping on the field? 4. Is it possible for the cpu to have delay of game calls? Or any penalty for that matter? Don't know if it's the sliders I'm using, but the cpu never jumps offsides. 5. Is it possible to block kicks now? Guess basicly, is there a real upgrade in gameplay or just tackling? Sorry if these ?'s have been asked. I didn't see them in any of the posts I've read. Thanks!

Gameflow is still in the game. CPU can't get delay of game or offsides, but others, yes. I've heard that extra points are almost too easy to block in Madden 12. I dunno if this is true though.

The rosters on the disc were finalized before the lockout. They will not be printing new disks with new rosters.

There is a free trial for xbox live gold that you can get if you only want to download rosters.
