Re: Biggest pet peeves

1. punts bouncing forty yards.
2. no or not enough penalties. Especially OPI/DPI penalties-biggest pet peeve
3. disjointed animations that make no sense.
4. showing an injured player going to the locker room and being on the field the very next play
5. those dam anti gravity cleats. can we have players actually have their feet on the ground
6. the poor run defense.

When there is less than 2 minutes left in the half/game, and the cpu completes a 20 yard pass and it literally takes them 4 seconds to be back at the line of scrimmage ready to snap the ball

Re: Biggest pet peeves

The "Y" button. How hard is it to make the button you assign an action to, do that action every time? I've missed so many interceptions and given up big plays because of it rarely working.

Three minute freakin quarters in MUT. You can literally play a game where you only get one possession.

Re: Biggest pet peeves

My biggest pet peeve is that 60% of wide-open interceptions are dropped.


Sucks in online play, where you can't adjust sliders. Nothing more frustrating than having your opponent throw a pass right to the CB, having him drop it, and then they score on the drive.

That's absolutely CRAZY and completely unintuitive to the slider names. It's actually difficult to believe you on this only because of how crazy it sounds. Sorry, not trying to call you a liar. If this is true then it's an absolutely HORRIBLE way to design penalty sliders. This is an huge SMH.

Re: Biggest pet peeves

**The half a$$ed challenge system.
**Minimal foot planting
**No score ticker during CCM games
**Sometimes the Ball Hawk and Swat buttons don't work
**The receiver warping 5-10 yards back towards the LOS on some comebacks routes.
**No scoring summaries for other games in the Schedule of results in CCM
**Useless Sideline reporting

...and finally, my biggest pet peeve with Madden this year and every year is all of the sites (ALL of them) that fail to ask these guys about ISSUES..NOT FEATURES that have been in this game for YEARS! Yes, the members here ask the tough questions all of the time. But the annual "marketing blitz" of Madden is nothing more than a feature dump from the devs and the people that are interviewing them with the BIG ELEPHANT sitting in the room waiting to be addressed.

I can't wait for the day for a "town hall meeting" type of questioning blitz of these guys. Stop telling us you're always looking at forums and always listening to the community. Get on a podcast/interview where the questions aren't scripted or reviewed prior to the podcast/interview and give an honest no BS no dancing around the question type of answer.
