Im enjoying it and still playing it, going from franchise, MUT, online and such. I am looking forward to the patch near the end of the month to address some of the issues that IMO shouldnt have been "overlooked" before the game went to press.

Re: one month after madden 11 has launched off

So far i'm enjoying it. Within the first week and a half after i got it i was really frustrated with the defense, but it seems as if they have made defensive adjustments(either that or i'm just getting a bit better).

My online franchises are running smoothly so I never have to worry about playing cheese players. The servers are kind of choppy tho, but it isnt a pressing issue for me. Overall i'm very happy with the purchase. Especially considering I got the game for only $20.

I still own my copy, I still play my copy, I plan on playing my copy all year long. I think I have played it more than Madden 10 already. The Pursuit Angles killed M10 for me. Also, simulating franchise mode wasn't fun either with the poor stats and off-season free agency issues.

I've never, NEVER played Madden this much. I'm still going strong. I usually burn out and start looking towards the new NHL game. But right now, I'm just having a blast. This is the first year where I don't walk away from the TV pissed off.

LOL that was funny. I used to get so pissed off when the game first came out because the offense would make these ridiculous plays, especially online.

But now i'm loving it! Just had an online ranked match thriller. Giants(me) vs Steelers. I won the game 24-22. The dude scored a TD to give them 22 and then tried to QB sneak it in with Big Ben and got stopped with 5 seconds left.

Lol and funny thing is i bought this game thinking it would just be something to hold me over until NBA 2K11 comes out, but this is addicting.

Played it non stop for the first two weeks.Havent played it since.Everything is basically the same as last year as far as replay value.

I HAVE been playing NCAA everyday though.

Re: one month after madden 11 has launched off

My replayability comes in how I treat franchise mode. My focus isn't always the team itself, but some of the stories I create in my head. The development of a rookie, a specific player who's developed, the veteran trying to win once more before retiring, etc. That's the stuff I get interested in. I also LOVE offseason. Sometimes I wonder which I prefer: offseason or playing the games. I love drafting and developing rookies.

Re: one month after madden 11 has launched off

I play NCAA 11 almost every day but I still play a little Madden each
day as well. But I play on All-Madden so I get really frustrated when
I can't tackle anyone. But with the patch do out this week according
to the EA blog. I will start to love it once again.

Re: one month after madden 11 has launched off

freezing issues have really killed replay value for me. I'm waiting for a patch and opening day rosters.

Re: one month after madden 11 has launched off

I haven't bought the game yet.

And before anyone asks, "Then why'd you post here?" I'm quoting to show it was one of the questions asked....

have you even bought the game yet?

:wink:

Re: one month after madden 11 has launched off

just sold it off, still enjoying 10 more. 11 was ok, after a m onth the fluff wore in. not much of an upgrade.

Re: one month after madden 11 has launched off

not much of an upgrade.

Honestly I can't see how you can come to this conclusion. But to each their own.

Re: one month after madden 11 has launched off

I bought it, haven't played it in a couple weeks.

If I had to describe the game in one word, I'd say "stale". The series just hasn't progressed in ages. I don't think it's horrible, it's just stale.

NHL comes out next week, I'm still playing MLB 10, and FIFA is later in September. All VASTLY better games and representations of their sports. Why waste time playing an inferior game?

Maybe it's time for someone other than Tiburon to put out Madden games. One would think with the press Madden gets, it should be the best EA Sports game, but it's actually one of the worst.
