    Rodgers is way too fast haha, he went all Denard Robinson on me one play.

    I will say, if the QBs' speed ratings, or at least acceleration, aren't adjusted, then I refuse to play any team online with a fast QB.

      Only played a half.

      Feels a lot like NCAA, except it seems like the lighting isn't quite as good. Not sure why.

      Game seems more..."sterile" than NCAA. Don't know how else to explain it.

      Didn't notice anything glaringly good or bad. Just wonder if it will be fun enough to want to play for months.

        I enjoy it a lot. . . that being said the game isn't without it's problems. . .

        #1 The game speed is far too fast. . . easily corrected with a game speed SLOW and threshold to 35 change.

        #2 Too many big hits. I grow tired of seeing big hits that have little to no momentum behind them.

        #3 Dropped picks, enough said. . .

        #4 Jay Cutler seems insanely fast, switching game speed to slow helps some but still running with the QB is much to easy. With it in default settings Peyton could easily scramble for 10 yards.

        #5 Cutlers arm didn't really feel "strong"

        #6 Still no inside/outside shade with man to man coverage.

        #7 Not enough of a pass rush, especially when playing defense.

        #8 Too difficult to recognize certain defensive players (due to camera angle/lighting and position of players)

        #9 Feels much to easy to run the ball. Both demo backs fall forward almost every down (nice touch but overdone).

        One of my favorite things about this game is the kick meter. It rocks!

          So I've noticed that the D-Line pressures the QB better. I had 4 sacks on Aaron Rodgers through 3 quarters. I think the Packers sacked me twice.

          Also, I broke a tackle with Forte, turned the corner and broke off an 80 yard TD run. The home crowd ERUPTED.

            Are you kidding me Cutler's arm feels like a cannon as it should, I'v squeezed some nice balls inbetween defenders.. Only to be dropped because of how bad my Bears WR crew is. On All-Madden I won 10-7 felt real nice, the 3-4 actually worked like its supose to!

              One quick note guys on kickoffs. If you tap the B button twice really quick you can do a fake kickoff and pull off an onside kick.

              It was kind of fun to see

                I didn't say anything about speed in the post of mine you quoted, bro.

                  Jesus lol, I've been playing Madden 11 the past few weeks pretty much nonstop and I just got raped in my first game in the demo. I was the Packers on All-Pro. Lost 31-17. That was painful lol. Daniel Manning picked me off twice (one of them looked beautiful) and he took that beautiful one back for a touchdown.

                    I agree . But I did get a laugh on how you stated it. " I've squeezed some nice balls in between defenders"

                      I wanna say, getting the positive comments from especially Playmakers and Lisa is really gratifying, I know you guys are hard to please.

                      We're really working toward a new era for this game, and I think the team is more on board for that than ever before (as evidence by the fact that I'm still here, as my intial contract was extended).

                      #6 Still no inside/outside shade with man to man coverage.
                      It's there... not sure if maybe the demo branch was made before we put the UI in for it. Try Up (to activate the presnap menu), then "A" for individual coverage, then the button of the receiver who's cover man you're trying to adjust, then left for shade left, right for shade right, up for back up, down for press.
                      There are two types of people on OS: Those who disagree with me, and those who agree.

                      The first kind is wrong. The second is superfluous.

                      The only difference between reality and fiction is that fiction needs to be credible.

                        Do they not have fumble pileups anymore?

                          So I'm assuming the reason Rodgers and Cutler take off so fast is the global acceleration for QBs. I say this because in NCAA 12, QBs take off too slow on speed options, and EA said they would tune the acceleration to make them take off faster. So, EA should be able to tune the in-game acceleration to make guys, especially QBs, take off slower.

                          If it's not done by day one though, expect to get thoroughly abused online by the Eagles and other teams with decent running QBs.

                            Haha believe me I did too. I had my best play in Madden history in that game were I threw a 30 yard pass to Johnny Knox that Jay Cutler over threw just a little bit on a playfake that he one handed and fell forward catching it, Led to my game winning field goal. I also skipped Maden 11 and have only bought Madden 04,05,08,10. This madden feels defiently the most realistic amazing especially since this is the demo!

                              just noticed my first bug, Olsen made a catch and I challenged it, and I won so it should have been overturned. HOWEVER, they still gave the Bears the 1st and 10.

                                Clay Mathews is the fastest defensive player I have ever seen in a Video Game. Unbelievable how fast he covers ground.

                                Punt blocking isn't right as others have stated.
                                LOL trust me bro the QBs will take off on you th min they have chance.
