I see the secondary play, robo QB (though I have had some success taming this with sliders), and the ease of sacking the CPU QB (without even trying) as the biggest issues at this point. A good patch from EA could make it a GOAT for the PS 3 generation. But alas, I have seen this movie before, and I am not confident the ending will be rewritten this time......

I honestly think that if half the sacks were instead the qb throwing the ball away it would help robo qb a ton. Nut I don't really mind them a whole lot. It makes up for the lack of sacks we've had over the last 5 year's and it feel good being able to get pressure more naturally without relying solely on sell out blitzes to get consistent pressure.

How the heck do we not have a stick impressions thread here? Last gen has quickly become the red-headed stepchild that none of the admins here seem to cares about.

I don't get this sack issue that so many people seem to have. I use the bucs who have two pretty good D Lineman and tend to get 2-3 sacks a game. It seems fine to me.

Robo QB on the other hand...

The closer I get too getting the right slider combo and auto subouts right the more Im loving this game. The last couple games I have had have been a greta experience. Finally after all these years I think EA finally put out a solid game for th emost part, although not perfect.

Biggest issue is the game freezes thruout playing which is annoying, and then the solid freeze to where you get stuck at the loading screen after playing a game and have to shut your PS3 off. Thats my only gripes with the game. IM offline so I can fix the QB completion %'s being to high, so that dont effect me really other than tinkering with sliders to get it right which really we shouldnt have to do, but I can live with that if that was th eonly issue.

Hi guys, i cant find the spot to post this, so i hope here is ok? im an aussie, who just receently is learning about nfl, and i just got madden yesterday, and i have a few questions, so if anyone could answer them or some that would be wonderful! thanks guys:

1. For anyone on ps3 do you have lag during menus? Like it just takes a while to move through the different screen in career mode. Or any console for that matter

2. I have a base 4-3 defence yet I seem to always play 3-4?

3. How do the funds work in owner mode, as in what effects it to go up and down?

4. I've heard sliders don't work if you change them in owner mode?

5. How do I sub players during a game? Say if my qb is playing terrible, how do I swap him?

6. Which way makes sliders more effective, so does putting the pass coverage to the right up near 100 make me mark players better, or do do I move it to the left closer to 0? And for qb accuracy etc..

7. What do the following settings mean -
Game speed?
Heat seeker?
Defensive graphics?

8. Where do you buy game prep package and superstar trait to make game prep stats better?

9. When your resigning players and you offer them a contract of say 15 mill on a 3 year deal, is that 5 mill a year or 15 mill a year?

Thanks in advance for the tips and help! also if there is a better place to post this please let me know

I started a owner mode cfm and I have simmed ahead and at end of season two, brees is backing manziel in Cleveland. Big ben is backup in Miami. Luck is with the gmen and geno smith is starting for the colts. Matt ryan is on the saints. Not to mention tons of other awful roster moves throughout the league. Teams signing 3-4 rbs they dont need. Is it because of owner mode fund issues for cpu teams? I am going to start a seperate cfm with a coach and see what happens. Glad i didn't play all those games just to see it end up like a fantasy team 2 years in

Did the same simulation 2 years in to a coach cfm. The player management is better but still some serious head scratchers....Luck backup to a drafted rookie in Oakland. Wilson starting in Jacksonville. Big ben backup in green bay. I guess im going to try 32 team control.
