    Madden 10 Blocking - Worst in next gen history?

    I believe so. It's seriously that bad. Almost every replay you can see a guy lined up head to head and he decides to go and block the lb who isnt even in the play. Or you can see the ball snapped and the guy just turn his back to the defense and just get lost. Its not a rare occurance by any stretch of the imagination. it happens ALL THE TIME.

    I have a bunch of youtube videos , and one of them got a video response , and the description read " This Madden has the best blocking of the series. It is perfect. i wouldnt change a thing." and on the replay you can see the fb only makes the block because the OT wonders off and gets lost. Does EA have these people that brainwashed?

      Great post and those videos are evidence of the frustration involved in playing this game. I can deal with bad commentary and shoddy presentation but if the gameplay is broken than the game is broken.

        make a better game yourself and stop complaining. All you people do is complain about every little thing. There will NEVER be a perfect football game, but this is as close as you're going to see.

          I dont see a problem with the blocking after 15 game on All-pro with a few slider tweaks I have over 1700 yards rushing with AP and I have been sack the 7th fewest times, Ya they miss blocks dont block the right guy, but to start a thread about because you suck at the game just takes up space for the good threads

              I agree with the OP. I can't count the number of times my FB or a pulling guard runs right by an obvious block. Believe it or not, NCAA has much better open field blocking.

                Blocking definitiely needs improvement. I can still get my yards, but the AI looks lost. I hope this is something EA can address with a patch.

                  no its not. I lead the league in rushing and I barely ever get sacked. If it was such a big deal we wouldn't be able to move the ball on offense.

                    There are some flat out insane hiccups in the blocking with the OL. I don't get how on some plays it blocks just right, and others, there are 10 year vets making rookie mistakes. I've seen Alan Faneca stand straight up, and then run to the second level, bypassing his original assignment, on a passing play...I don't expect every play to be blocked perfectly, because it shouldn't, and couldn't be in any 'sim' type setting...But some of the mistakes are flat out ********, and things you know you wouldn't see in pee-wee league games, let alone in the NFL.

                      Pretty hard to argue, blocking in both NCAA and Madden is horrid this year. Getting your OL beat is one thing, having them pass a guy in front of them for a LB or just dodging a rusher as is happening is truly terrible programming work.

                        Yea I agree with this post. Dont get me wrong I really enjoy this game with the sliders Im using but some times blocking is just asinine. Then other times it looks like a game on sunday. Backs picking up chip blocks and guards executing traps and pulls to perfection. To me I can deal with it to be honest because Im really enjoying the game.

                            People post 100's of these stupid videos showing missed blocks as if that's some sort of conclusive proof that this game is terrible and broken. Guys, play the game. Either you enjoy it, or there's issues with it that make you not enjoy it.

                            If you really think the blocking in this game is the worst in next-gen history, I'm sure there's a $1.99 copy of Madden '06 sitting in a GameStop bin with your name on it. Enjoy.
