Anyone else notice that PBK and RBK do NOT progress/change ever?

(Much too anal to allow 37 year old 70 OVR linemen that used to be good to make the Pro Bowl :P)

Has there been any update on this issue? Changing the qbs is about all the patience I have.

No but I can't imagine they could or would change it before the next patch.

Do any of the guys that checked Twitter know if they responded?

Anyone have a formula to manually changing the RBK an PBK ratings. I'm guessing each should be the average of the stength and footwork ratings??? Or should other attributes (agility, awareness, etc) be factored in?

In my dream world, there would be no "block ratings" but like you said, agility, physical strength, intelligence (awareness) would do it.

But in Madden, I probably would try to think of something involving STR, RBS, AGI, RBF, AWR - though I don't know what weighting would be fair to all types of OL (i.e. "finesse" OL shouldn't get screwed, etc).

(bringing up a month old but important thread here)

Whats worse is 90% of most Madden gamers probably dont even realize how much this bug is ruining their game's stats and ratings. Then again I suppose ingorance is bliss.


aaanyways...


Since the Devs did not respond to this issue. (surprise surprise)

And since there will likely be no 3rd patch which would likely not fix this bug. (surprise surprise)

Here is what I have been doing every pre-season...


-I change all UDFA's to be P's or K's so the CPU knows to drop them.

-I use the quick fix for every QB's THA rating, which takes like 5 seconds. No biggie.

-For OL'men I take an average of their Strength and Footwork ratings, and assign that to RBK and PBK respectively. It is excrutiating, and takes a long time. I do this for LT,LG,C,RG,RT.


Man... playing Madden takes so much work.

What's the THA quick fix?

Haven't started playing it yet, but I will in a few days. Good to know about this bug before I start my franchises.
