New and More Sliders!!

[frankplastictrees]

I came into my room, hopped on the computer for a quick check of the boards before going to bed, and over an hour later I've gone through 51 pages. At least I've had some good laughs reading some of the posts.

I dunno, for me I guess I'll give Head Coach a try this year. I really have tried to look pass the robo qb in NCAA and I just can't. I haven't touched the game in a week, who would of thought that a game I was so excited about would sit on the shelf. The glimmer of hope is that there might be something in day 1 patch to save this, just a bummer they aren't allowed to talk about it.

Now that I'm caught up I am going to bed, and surely will have 50 more pages to try to get through before work. Oy vey...

Ok. After playing the demo some more now, this game might be salvageable if at least the human sliders work. My receivers are dropping way too many open passes. And I mean wide open, no cpu player deflected them. It might be because I scored all Madden on pass and rush offense? Also I am noticing that with only a front four rushing me, I can just scramble to one side of the field and have all day to pass, almost like NCAA. When they blitz, I definitely feel the heat though. Another reason I hope the catching sliders work is because I have already been intercepted several times off of the wide open deflections. I will definitely get tired of that. It really sucks that we can't try defense to really see if we will need working cpu sliders. I'm on the fence about this game. Very disappointing.

I don't even know what to say. Im just speechless.

Does anyone still think this whole exclusivity thing isn't a big deal?

Seriously. For the first time in 5 years I was semi excited for Madden.

I really hope they patch NCAAs issues. Oh well, back to APF2k8 for another year.

I'm going to re-open this thread but we'll be watching it CLOSELY! Any thing even remotely close to a personal attack will result in you losing your posting privileges for one week's time.

Let's be mature about this, gentlemen.

Maybe the game will be so good that the game doesn't need CPU sliders?

Bill Abner says he doesn't really play defense, just dl and doesn't switch mid play.

Personally, I find the game more realistic if i'm constantly switching to the closest player to the ball every time.

I unno, I respect Bill's opinions and for the most part correct. However, I don't take his word as gospel.

I've found in ncaa, that if i user control on defense, i have far more success stopping the passing d than letting the cpu do it on heisman.

just my 2c

Biggie: "And another one"

This thread is hilarious throughout. Ooo How deceiving the thread title is haha. I'm not placing the blame on anyone and I'm not mad at anyone because I didn't plan on buying this game anyway.

I'm one of those who actually looked at EA's track record as of late, put two and two together, and realized, that they were gonna screw something up in a major way; and I was right...

This post got an infraction. This should be an indication to you all on how low our tolerance is going to be for trolling, personal attacks, or what have you. Here was the message I sent him:

You weren't planning on buying the game anyway? Great! Don't post in this thread then. All you're doing is adding fuel to the fire and we don't need that.

Tread lightly, folks.
