EA could come up with a better way...

... to impliment comback AI.

I'm not 100% against it, although I dont like it, but c'mon.

In the 3rd and fourth quarters I fumbled 4 times. In my 7 games before, I fumbled like 3 total times... if that.

Instead, Rod Smart muffs a punt and fumbles a return, Ran Carthon fumbles on the goal line, and Mike Alstott loses one at mid field.

It just seems like a cheap way to me. Have the computer play better before u start jipping me, EA... geeze.

I wouldn't be so sure that your mishaps was comeback A.I. or not.

Re: EA could come up with a better way...

I'm trying to get a feel for the game on allpro. Decided to play a lower rated Charger team. 1st quarter i muff a punt which the cpu runs in for a TD. I wonder what the cpu is up to. Then 3rd quarter the cpu muffs a punt as well and i return it for a TD. Felt a little better after that. Cant't say i've ever had a problem with any comeback AI anyway. More often than not the cpu folds.

I've never had a problem with the Comeback AI either. Sometimes I notice I get away from my gameplan I had been using and they score a late touchdown or two before I correct it, I guess it's the "go for the kill" mentality we all have. When you are winning big you want to win bigger...so you go away from the run and start passing deep, and stop worrying about coverage and start blitzing...and you get burned. I notice that if I keep doing the same things I had been I play a better 4th quarter.

Re: EA could come up with a better way...

I stuck to my gameplan all game; I realized I couldn't pass at all against Champ Bailey and Charles Woodson, so I ran. My defense seems to always play well tho. They got one deep one on me late and that was 100% my fault being that I controlled the safety and let Reggie Williams get by me.

1. There was no one near me... a fair catch would have been a horrible move.
2. Ran Carthon. He played for Florida last year and was undrafted. I got him as a FA.
3. Maybe that's true, but he hadn't fumbled all year with me.


I'm not saying I dont like the game. I think that this is my favorite football game ever behind NCAA2004. I just think EA needs to think about stuff before they put it in. There's better ways to do things.

It is only one time, relax. If it happens again then okay, but it only happened once. There have been stranger things in the NFL.

Smells like typical EA BS to me. Thats why I cant play the game. I honestly think I'll enjoy Madden if the comeback logic was'nt in the game. But stuff like that happened to me too many times in the last 3 years of playing Madden.

I dont know if I'm the only one, but I can usually predict when it happens. No lie.
