Play action has been a weak spot for both the Madden and NCAA franchises for years now, as the run fake gave defenses plenty of time to beat the blocks and meet the quarterback in the backfield before he had a chance to scan his receivers. For NCAA 13, EA Tiburon is trying to make play-action viable with quicker handoffs and the handy ability to abort the handoff before it occurs by hitting right trigger. When this happens the running back automatically starts blocking. EA is also adding more plays where tight ends chip block defensive ends before releasing into a pass pattern to give play-action plays more of a chance to develop.
I'm glad they're looking at this. If you called PA in anything outside of shotgun, you would instantly get sacked.

The controller layout for NCAA and Madden are synchronized so they are the same between the two games.
THANK YOU EA.

Small visual thing I like is that the grass is shorter. No more jungle thickets.

agreed, i'm glad they fixed this because it basically eliminated all play action plays, other than Shotgun, from your playbook.

Good job devs. Now hopefully they added the the same offensive formation personnel display for the defensive playcall menu from NCAA into Madden too.
