Slow or Normal?

[cgalligan]

Did a search and found a bunch of old threads about Madden 10 and 11.

I'm wondering what the Consensus is regarding Game-Speed this year? We're currently having this discussion in both of the Franchises that I'm apart of.

Personally, I feel like "normal" plays extremely fast, while "slow" seems to be more "normal".

I feel like the game is much better on slow... Less unrealistic "video game" movements and better player interactions and tackle animations also.

What are your Thoughts?

I think most people would agree. Normal us much too fast.

Normal plays the way Madden has always played. Slow is boring, IMO.

Is that a good or bad thing though?

I think its safe to say that Madden hasn't been very "realistic" these past few years... (not trying to start a war or go off topic, just sayin)

initially i thought normal was too fast, but once you play for awhile you notice normal seems...well..."normal" lol. And you get great responsiveness when playing on normal especially on defense

To me, Madden is as realistic as it needs to be. True realism can be boring and I dont have fun controlling the little slow men on my 65 inch lol. I approach Madden as a video game and thats as far as Im willing to accept it.

Fair enough. I agree, "too real" wont be fun for 99% of the people that play Madden.

If we wanted it to be "NFL Speed" the game would be on VERY FAST lol... That would just be insane.

Exactly! Thats why I think Normal is the perfect balance.

If EA would adjust the speed down to slow (so it seems online) I would adjust to it. People have their preferences and I respect that.
