really, 8 games isn't enough? wow I feel bad for posting after 1 game then. Preaseason even, but no problems surfaced with cpu ai there, they were up by 4 points, and kneeled the ball with 1:14 left even though I still had a timeout, so that's good.

Are you playing coach mode?

Just curious.

Well, I'm still waiting for someone to analyze my stats (post 706) to see if that is a good game (slider-wise) all my sliders are on 45 and nothing seemed out of the ordinary to me.

I saw a lot of text on #706, but no stats :wink:

do you even have to ask lol, of course, but coach mode just being auto qb and the one really discouraging thing is it seems auto qb(s) do not scramble for positive rushing yards

In that game as I noted both Fitzpatrick and VY had over 20 scramble yards...RG3 -5 and that was actually on a called QB run

I know it isn't designed to be played non-human (yes I am non-human) but if they can just get the logic in there for the QB to scramble...I'd probably stay with Madden and finally frame my HC09 Disc after painting it platinum of course.

One final note: EA stated in the beginning that CCM was ready for the ability to edit rosters within it! We pushed until we got it. We can't blame EA for going against their better judgement to appease the community.

Actually, I do. They should have stuck to their guns. They are the developers, they know their timeline and what they want with the feature.

They should know people are going to push for what they want. If it ain't ready yet, keep saying it. The answer they gave the first time was good - "It's not ready yet. It will be in when we feel it's ready for prime time."

Putting something out that's not ready, that's even worse judgement, even if it was to appease the community (since the bugs are going to do anything but appease).

I'm not a M13 defender - I'm probably considered one of those "complainers" someone else talked about, but that first answer was perfect and they should have stuck with it. Rushing it out didn't turn out well evidently.

Well, that sucks about the auto-QB...of course, if the coach mode actually was you calling plays only...but anyway...

Saw your stats - based on them, they look reasonable - don't see your whole box score, but the game was close, score decent, so at the least, it's worth sticking with, including your penalty settings, especially if you liked the flow of the game and how the players interacted, which is most important, imo.

But you can call play only though...Go to My Madden and change Coach Mode to ON and Camera Angle to Broadcast. Then start you CCM and when you play it'll be straight Coach Mode. i've tried it and it works.

WHAT? IS THIS TRUE?



Seriously though, are you saying that when turning coach mode "on" AND selecting broadcast cam, that it becomes a TRUE coach mode, like in NCAA Football 13?

Please clarify what the difference is when using broadcast cam in coordination with coach mode "on" versus coach mode "on" alone.

Please sir, know what you are talking about because if not I will commit myself to getting you banned for toying with my true coach mode emotions, lol. j/k

Trolls Can't kill 'em, can't eat 'em...or CAN you???

Coach mode is on, and broadcast cam of course and blah blah blah we've been through this, nothing has changed. He's playing with you Big.

Edit* actually, i take that back, i don't think tarheel was intentionally playing with you, after reading the quote he's responding to, he probably was just trying to say you can call plays only ... anyway, coach mode needs to be struck from the vocabulary of everyone in Madden until their is a true coach mode lol

I've been using coach mode with broadcast cam in online CCM and I can confirm it definitely is auto pass and not the same as coach mode in NCAA 13.

I know you have the game SloeyEZ, so can you check this out. Turn on coach mode AND broadcast cam to see if there is any difference in the way the mode plays? It would be greatly appreciated.

OK but can you try that offline because we have been told that certain online features will not be updated/patched until Friday Oct 19th, so maybe it falls under that. Just trying to exhaust all chances, lol.

Coach mode (offline CCM) + Broadcast Cam + Great sliders = LOTS OF FUN, almost to the point of it feeling too realistic.
