Have Penalties always been broken?

Doesn't seem like any are ever called even when the sliders are all the way up. Been like this for years.

On PS2 and OG Xbox they worked a little better. PI worked fairly good. You actually saw a variety of penalties. However they have never completely Worked how we would like.

Re: Have Penalties always been broken?

Do you have the game and tried upping the penalty sliders for yourself? I'm curious as whether or not they will actually work correctly this year or not, myself. Before, it affected gameplay, but as you already stated, they never worked properly for the most part.. except for maybe holding, facemask, and blocking in the back.

Anyone tried upping the sliders for M15 and see if anything is called besides the ones I mentioned?

Re: Have Penalties always been broken?

This is the only sports game I know of where moving penalty sliders effect gameplay by a substantial margin. I don't know if thats the case this year but I would put money on it.
Not only do penalties not work but its like EA wants us to guess what the sliders do. A. Joke.

The worked good back in the ps2/xbox days. But since then they have hardly worked since then. Something Madden crew is working on fixing. Just going to take time I guess.

looks like they didn't fix DPI..... just played a game against cmp threw ball the defender laided out my wr while ball was still in air nothing called... looks like another long yr if u play online of ppl tackling your wr and not getting flagged.

Well that's unfortunate to hear. Not that surprising though. Wondering if they are still just broken, or are if they can be upped in CFM to get calls right.

I have no idea why this is so difficult for them to implement.

Fifa has tugging and bumping/jostling interactions, (while not called fouls enough).

That would go perfectly for Madden. After watching this preseason and some of these ludicrous calls, any minimal tugging or contact after 5 yards should be an automatic penalty

I agree. They were actually even better on the PS1 days, if you can believe it.

Re: Have Penalties always been broken?

The one penalty slider that I have found to work is facemask, set it to 60 and had multiple calls in a game, unfortunate that every tackle comes with that stupid animation once you raise it though.

I have holding, false start, Interference, etc all at 95 and rarely see anything else. You may get a couple of false starts, saw one holding penalty at 95. Seems like we are going to get very few penalties this year.

Been my experience as well with the facemask slider. Seems to be the only slider that is working.

Why even put them in the game if they don't work year after year. We have these HIGH POWERED systems and it functioned better on PS2/Xbox

Re: Have Penalties always been broken?

I've played 10 games and I only had 2 FaceMask penalties called and both were in the same game. I didn't touch the sliders though.
