Madden 09 Roster & Patch Update

Re: Madden 09 Roster & Patch Update

Is there other possibilities for Patch 2 other than those listed in the first post?

Would it be possible to re-tune the defense so the coverage is better and the pass pressure is more effective?

I don't mean make it like Madden 08 where the defenders in coverage are hyper aware and jump everything, especially defenders who come off their original assignment and jump passes thrown to receivers covered by other defenders.

But they're also poor as primary defenders too, where they're right near the intended receiver but allow more receptions.

On the pass rush, they've seemed to have slowed down the LBs and other edge blitzers.

Not talking about big changes, just some fine adjustments.

This would be for the default gameplay not sliders, because it affects online games.

where was it stated that it was suppose to be out today...

If people read correctly they would see that Phil stated

" It will be out on around the 14th" so it does not mean it is the 14th...it could be out tomorrow or monday...

I mainly play online.

But a lot of these are issues of AI-controlled players or behaviors so they would be CPU sliders, right?

Of course, EA might give us back CPU sliders but you can't use sliders online.

Again, as was said earlier, THEN, someone from EA posted that it should be out Thursday (today). People aren't just making up the date, it was made pretty clear that today was the expected release date.

Re: Madden 09 Roster & Patch Update

i'm seriously needing this patch because kick return just naturally always go to the 30 yard line making the gameplay for the cpu extremely quick as they usually can just dart up to the 50 or so in like 3 plays...

Re: Madden 09 Roster & Patch Update

Im assuming Microsoft hasn't approved the patch yet otherwise it would already be available. Thanks Microsoft for always taking your sweet a** time in providing us with those critical game updates.

Re: Madden 09 Roster & Patch Update

i do miss the accelerated clock, but its not a make or break deal for me....

the one thing that ive noticed (at least for ps3) is the overall lack of progression in franchises....i dont play that much online bc of the lack of lets just say honorable opponents so franchises are important to me and the fact that a huge proponent of that is lacking highly disturbs me....hopefully EA can fix this in a patch, bc it def takes the fun out of franchises

If you think 2k5 is better than Madden 09, well, I laugh in your face, seriously.

2K5 is still superior to Madden in a number of areas. Gameday environment; commentary; run-blocking; running game; weather animation/graphics, just to name a few off the top of my head.

And let's not forget: 2K5 had gang-tackling and the ability to trade future draft picks LOOOOONG before they were in Madden.

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON WHATSOEVER FOR 2K TO BE MENTIONED IN THIS THREAD. NONE WHATSOEVER. THIS THREAD IS ABOUT THE ROSTERS & PATCHES FOR EA'S MADDEN FOOTBALL 2009. THERE IS NO REASON FOR COMPARISONS OR TALKING ABOUT HOW 2K WAS BETTER OR WHAT HAVE YOU. NONE. IF YOU CAN'T POST WITHOUT BRINGING THESE TYPES OF THINGS UP REGARDING 2K/EA, THEN DON'T POST. YES, ITS THAT SIMPLE

Carry on

In case it wasn't clear the first time.

No more warnings. Infractions will be handed out from here on out.
