the d-line gets pass the o-line to fast on every and i mean every play. thats not real football!

also i see the DBs are a lot better but why do the WRs drop more balls and the DBs are still beating my WRs to the spot before i throw the ball...

Is this user vs cpu? I didn't see any of this in user vs user game.

I played a second match user vs user match. I was using the Rams vs the Redskins. I was up 28-7 at halftime, but the Rams defense is badddd an it showed. My CBs could not cover very well an it showed. I can't really say too much about the zone coverages since I don't play it much. When I played zone it seemed to work decently enough. They ended up coming back an i needed a late FG to win 38-35. It's hard for me too say how the patch went in this game because the Rams defense is so bad but check this stat. I feel I played good D, the Redskins QB was 9-22 so that's great, but he had 222yrds due to my CBs not being able to contain Santana Moss and I didn't keep a safety over top so the two times Moss broke a tackle he was gone. I did shut down his run game but he broke one for 70yrds because I over ran a toss play.

The custom audibles don't register too well... you have to button mash, and even then you almost get flagged for a delay of game.

i knew i wasnt crazy!...but think this was done on purpose because it works fine when you call audibles slowly....so i think this was done for online play to stop them from calling multiple audibles at one time

I noticed this as well, and I like the idea. I do believe instead of delaying the reaction of the audible plays, it should show the QB changing singles, running backs, and WR's listening and adjusting.

As someone who doesn't play online, I think it's b-a-d.

For offline franchise players, have you seen any stat weirdness? Last year after the last patch AI rushing numbers (among other things) went haywire, and I don't want to d/l if I'm looking at 12 guys hitting 2000 yards every season...

I realized after a few more games that the custom audibles were indeed slowed down, but for realism. You can only call an audible once everybody is lined up at their set position.

Idk, never had a problem with jukes. I play ALL MADDEN w/ 0 HUM break tackle.

Comments like these are really ********, what's the point? You hoping to make everyone ohhh and ahhh and think your a madden god? Nobody gives a ****!

I definitely noticed the difference in the quick audibles.

They also don't show the play art all the time when you click on them.

Online: Defensive line will get pressure from RE and ROLB position. Fatigue is more a factor on defense. You have to be patient with run game. Tighter coverage by CBs. Better bumps from CBs. LB cover the middle a little better. More fumbles.
Hot Routes will screw you sometimes.

Offline: More fumbels and better defensive line play.

You indeed do need patience for the run game, but it is very rewarding.

If you're Human playing against the CPU, the CPU zone is indeed better. Not over the top, unrealistically, better imo, but the CPU defenders play their areas and track receivers better. It's not quite as easy to throw into holes on those dig routes. The LB or safety will not just stand there anymore while the pass is completed.

When you are on defense, I have noticed that my defenders track the ball in the air better. They make strafe and make better plays on deep passes wheras there were times when they would stand with their back to the play while the opposing receiver leapt 6 feet in the air to snap it. Here, it is more evened out. The flats are also defended better. The CPU doesn't throw a quick out against cover 2 and turn it up field with ease anymore.

I am step closer to picking up the game. How are the broken tackles?

in my last online franchise gm all madden settings i ran for 154 with beanie wells on 26 attempts. when playing zone, i noticed my lb's swatted down a few passes they would normally let sail past em, plus the db's seemed to at least be in a position i could user pick/swat when needed. overall there isn't a night and day difference but thats a good thing, i think overall it's improved the D in regards to online play without breaking anything else.
