    Re: Madden NFL 25 Title Update #2 Available Now (Xbox One, PS4)

    Reading through some of the comments...has anyone started a fresh franchise post patch?

    Also, I'm curious to hear whether or not these items have been addressed:

    -AI offense...avoid sacks and INTs as my team always led the league on D

    -Simulated pancake stats too low, not matching in-game

    -Penalties being called more in played games...I'm always lowest in NFL

    -Stats like "thrown to" not being recorded

    -Some stats not saving via in-game save

    -Gang tackles being recorded in-game

    -Too many drops for both AI and user.

    I doubt anyone has checked all, but any info would help.

      I deleted the game off my XBox One hard drive,
      then re installed game & then got the latest patch.
      After doing so when the QB runs on the field for the first time
      and into the huddle, it is the correct person shown in the cut scene.

      and i still had all my saves from before. the game plays good now,
      hope that helps.

        Just to clarify, did you experience any of the gameplay issues some of us have complained about before re-installing? And are they gone now after you re-installed?

        For instance CPU block shedding, super pursuit, and bad running AI, which weren't problems before this last patch.

          i can tell you the bad A.I Running is gone Adrian Peterson tore me up with 19 carries 117 yds in first half of the first game i tried after the re install.

          hope that ansers your question

            One thing I have noticed after the patch is the USER secondary is terrible now when it comes to pass coverage. CPU WRs be wide open all the time now. It wasn't like this before the patch. Matt Flynn threw for 234 yards against me in the 1st half. And why ? Their WRs were wide open, every down.

            It is like EA watered down all aspects of the User side of things and boosted all aspects of the CPU side of things. Everything across the board is heavily slanted towards the CPU. User AI became very dumb, CPU AI became Einstein.

            EA needs to fix that. Game was quite fine before the patch. Hell even the pass rush is no longer good anymore like it was before the patch.

              Deleted the game, re-installed it and now the game is back to playing to the way it was before the patch. Completely weird.....So I am thinking the patch never did fully over write the existing file or something.

                yeah that is what i said on the page before you need to delete the game for the patch to work right. bringing the game from patch one to patch two you have problems. bringing the game from scratch to patch two, you got no problems

                    I deleted the game and re-installed it last night and started a new franchise.

                    The games seems back to normal for the most part. I played as the Giants vs Cowboys and quickly was down 21-0 in the first quarter. They ran the ball well and passed all over me, and I threw a pick six to help my cause.

                    I started running the ball alot in passing situations and the run game seemed back to normal, by the end I had 160 yards total on the ground.

                    I wound up winning 25-24, and the game played great. My pass coverage seemed sort of bad though. At the same time, I looked at alot of replays when I was on offense and I had guys wide open and just wasn't looking at that side of the field.

                    My next game was against the Broncos and I got lit up and lost badly, seemed about right.

                    I think the patch made slider adjustments inadvertently.

                    I checked my profile, which I have set to All-Pro defaut. The sliders were set to Pro level however. You may need to change the difficulty and then change it back to reset the sliders.

                    Even so, at All-Pro, everything is set to 50 for both me and the CPU, except CPU pass coverage is at 75. I don't know if the game was like that before.

                    I'll just leave it for now, it plays very well after re-installing. Passing is a bit tough and I have more missed coverages on my side than I think I should.

                    I never had any problems with my profile not being recognized but I did have the wrong player run out in place of the QB in the first season game, but not in the second.

                    Anyway thanks for the tips, very happy with the game now. As far as what version the patch is, I think it is 1.02 but it kind of doesn't matter if you're on Xbox One like me, you can't selectively patch games and you can't decline the patches so you're kind of stuck.

                    Oh as far as the user pass rush, it seems fine. I had eight sacks against the Cowboys, Kyle Orton played most of the game after I knocked out Romo. Against the Broncos I did not get to Manning much at all though.

                    One tip, and this was happening before the patch. My game locked up and froze after I threw a pick six and I was in the menu making depth chart adjustments. I would wait until after the celebratory cutscenes to go into the coaching menu, it has happened to me twice when I have done that so far, once was before the patch. If you wait for the cutscenes to finish I think the issue can be avoided.

                        Yes
                        the game plays good after. and all your other files will still be there once you re install.The game it will prompt for a update that update is the current patch 2
                        and everything from before. it just is not corrupt like the one that goes from patch one to patch two.

                            it's all hit or miss
                            i did notice the cutscene in franchise still shows wrong qb guy running on field
                            but in play now mode it is not present.

                            this company is a joke

                              Latest game: Bucs 10 - Panthers 20 (me) - Default All Pro

                              CPU QB: 23 out of 46 for 250 yards - 50%
                              Me: 13 out of 25 for 202 yards - 52%

                              CPU RB: 15 for 47 yards
                              Me: 22 for 80 yards, 2 TDs
                              Newton: 7 for 24 yards

                              CPU Defense: 1 INT, 2 sacks
                              Me: 3 INTS, 4 sacks

                              1 penalty the whole game - Holding

                              So yeah guys, definitely delete the game and re-install it. Before I deleted the game, CPU QBs were throwing for over 400 yards with 79% completion after the patch. No sacks was happening and no interceptions for the User defense. Now the game is back to the way it was originally, only with the CPU QB doing more over and under throws on passing plays.
