The Secret to the Pass RUSH...

[Whaaaazuuuuup]

Is there on??... or is it just a button mash fest. I do use the L stick to the left or right and try to time it correctly but can't seem to find a rhythm. I take it pass rush finesse vs power moves account for something as well. Any insight? ...

I haven't figured this out either. I've been pressing buttons while praying. It works, 50% of the time.

I guess it's a balance of rating and timing. Which in turn makes it more off chance. I'm tryin to get a gold on the pass rush trainer on all madden and it's difficult

Re: The Secret to the Pass RUSH...

Yeah I'm really not liking the new pass rushing. I'm not sure if it's harder but I just always accidentally use the stick to perform moves instead of the buttons, so it throws my timing off. I don't know if there is a trick to it. The skills trainer said to use the moves right when the defender is engaged. I think pass blocking from the O-Line actually come into play this year since I find it hard to get around them.

Yeah, I took that to mean right when the DL/OL's hands connect with each other but that always seemed too early. I thought it was like a halfback move where you engage it before contact, but it seems like waiting until you are in the slapfight animation before triggering the move takes too long.

Im also a user FS guy but mess around rushing the passer once in a while. I think the new button mash pass rush is childish garbage. Using the stick felt organic and there was technique involved. Button mashing should be reserved for shoot em up games.

I think it's pretty much The same. The only real difference is you press buttons and you get visual feedback.

You have to tap the button once, at the correct time. Mashing the button over and over again won't work, you will either stay engaged or you will fall on your face.

Wait - they took the stick technique out on the pass rush? SO now you just push a button?

Yeah don't you hate it when you don't cover deep and instead you blitz or cover shallow it always seems that the computer throws it to the WR in that area and gets a huge 1st down or sometimes a TD lol

Re: The Secret to the Pass RUSH...

I'm getting 9-13 sacks every game and I'm frustrated because I was hoping I wouldn't have to adjust sliders but CPU QB acc % is too high. If I don't make a sack, it's a completed pass, if I do get pressure, QB just hangs on to it and takes the sack instead of getting rid of it. I get a lot of pressure. And I mean A LOT. the 9-13 sacks a game is not a joke. And I've played with multiple teams. One thing I am noticing though, default all-madden. The scores are a lot better on 15 minute quarters & 14 second accel clock. It used to be ridiculous scores always in the 30s and 40s. Now in finishing complete games where the scores are 16-13, 20-12, 24-21 etc and it looks a lot better. Minus the CPU QB completion % and ridiculously high number of sacks I'm getting, it looks great on default all-madden. Oh and penalties are non-existent again which is frustrating
