    Now is Nba Live gonna make strides like this years Madden??
    Disagree about ROBO QB on All -Pro.

    Have you adjusted sliders?
    I just held Texans QB to about 58% passing in my last test game.
    Starting my real CFM today and hope to get video up of game 1

      As a long time Madden *****(IMO for good reason), I'm having a lot of fun and pleasantly surprised of the jump from M25. There are still problems that need to be sorted but this is the biggest step towards sim for the series in 10 years.

        That's probably why you are not seeing the accelerated clock. I don't think they're exactly the same, but if you choose chew clock in playcalling it speeds up the end of the game. So you don't have to sit at the line of scrimmage and let 30 seconds run off the play clock. I'm pretty sure that us how it works

          Every year almost every one says this is the best Madden yet,even though they have complaints. I'm not buying I'll pass this year. Until they put features back I like in the game. I haven't brought one since 12

              I stand corrected Skyboxer. I haven't touched any sliders. I was on All Pro default

                Only played against my nephew at my house for one game with 6 min qtrs and the next with only 2min qtrs (I had things to do) and I must say I'm absolutely loving this Madden, off the bat. It could help that in recent months I had just started digging into 25 after initially shelving game almost immediately on PS4 release day cuz I was soooo angry and disappointed at it. Months later, I learned to forgive then gave it hard look at, increasingly enjoying the little things about the game which set me up to really fiend for 15.

                I still gotta dig into the game more by myself because when playing with someone else and having limited time, it's hard to get deep. Can't wait to get home and play some more.
                Just cuz you pour syrup on ish....

                  Really enjoying this year's game! A HUGE step forward from EA. This is what we should have had on the PS3/360.

                  Only issue I am having is when changing between players to control on D. When trying to switch between a LB/DL/DB sometimes the camera setting changes when I am not hitting L3. It's caught me in some difficult situations. Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue.

                  Other than that...I've got no complaints. Played 2 games last night. Lost to the Browns with the Texans. Won with the Seahawks over the Jets 23-3. This was with 10 min quarters, no accel clock on All-Pro.

                  Using the DL a lot more this year because I am really enjoying the OL/DL interactions. Love the hand-fighting animations you can see while playing with the ZOOM camera. Plus, I started out playing at LB/DB and it just felt different this year. I wasn't nearly as effective. However, I feel like the animations/physics for player movement are better. Guys aren't just changing direction and field of vision without delay anymore.

                    I think I'm going with AM for one of my CFM's.

                    Just finished a 15 minute game (hope to have uploaded soon-Screwed up and missed almost all of 2nd quarter)
                    The only thing I did after game was bump up CPU INT's and run blk and dropped CPU acc down 1.
                    On AM a slight bump in anything makes a big step. The CPU was running all over me consistently so I dropped it down. A little too much it seems. So I bumped back up a bit.

                    On to week 2

                    Was a really fun game.
                    Beat Texans on road 31-14

                      Well first of all let me start by saying that I haven't owned a system since the Ps2 because when I played madden on the 360/ps3 over my boys house I just was really never impressed. The offense was just too overpowering, the movement was her my jerky and I overall just didnt like the game. Strategy went out the window.

                      Now, from watching the earlier videos I was intrigued because I seen a lot of things I liked especially the graphics and the movement. So the day madden came out I went a d bought a ps4. I was not disappointed, this absolutely the best madden I've ever played. Everything from graphics to the running is great. I especially loved the physics of the tackling it gives you an endless possibility of outcomes and really indulges you in the game. I absolutely love it.

                      The Qb inaccuracy and the D will make you pay on this game (especially if dont have your feet set) I threw tons of pics with Eli. The running game is great and you can feel the weight difference and shiftyness difference between power backs and speed/shifty backs and I like how you can't just hold speed burst while trying to run the momentum will kill you...lovely.

                      Oh did I mention how beautiful the graphics were...Ridiculous!

                      The presentation is top notch. I love the commercial after the Qt, makes me feel like im watching Tv. The flash films guy did an excellent job capturing all of those beautiful camera angles

                      My only negative is that horrible play calling screen. Please EA send a patch and change it back.

                      This game was definitely worth the purchase of the ps4. Im very satisfied.

                        Decided to unlock full game on X1. Best Madden since the PS2/Xbox era. Plays well, is strategic again, visually beautiful (finally correct player proportions!). Running game is good, defense is good. Some legacy issues like WR-DB interactions, suction blocking, etc...but still a massive leap from PS360 engine. As others have said, the playcalling screen is HORRENDOUS. Please patch this monstrosity.

                          I've got to say this is the most fun I've had with Madden, dare I say, of all time. Minus the (very few) lingering legacy issues, this year plays a great game of football. Started up a CFM last night as the Jags (soon to be Portland Lumberjacks lol) and lost week 1 to the Eagles on All-Pro!! I've never had so much fun losing either, it was like something you'd see on Sunday.

                          Side note: Most awesome play I've seen in some time; Threw an interception with Bortles around the 40, and Bortles had the angle to get back and make a play around the 3. Wraps up and strips the ball around the half-yard line, and a WR comes in and falls on it for a touchback. It was sweet!

                            After some slider tinkering, I'm happy with the QB ACC slider set at 10 for the human and CPU. I went into practice mode to test it out using Peyton Manning, the most accurate QB in the game, and Joe Webb, the least accurate QB in the game. Even at 10, I was still able to throw the ball with confidence with Peyton Manning while Joe Webb looked liked the 4th string quarterback that he is.

                            I played a game against the Falcons this morning as the Dolphins on 15 minute quarters. Matt Ryan went 19 for 31 248 yards and a touchdown. Ryan Tannehill went 32 for 49 for 331 yards. Neither QB threw an interception. Hopefully, these type of stats carry forward in future games because I wasn't liking the sky high completion percentages at 25 QB acc.

                              3 plays in, my first game with the Rams...Sam Bradford goes down with an injury and has to leave the game. Most realistic Madden ever.

                                After playing 6 games on default All-Pro I can say that this is probably the best MADDEN game. Reminds me of the Madden back in the PS2 days which is good but bad at the same time. The graphics are good but more I play the game the less impressive the graphics are, like others have mentioned before they looked cartoony and are not on the level of NHL 15 and other next gen sports games. Again this is most likely the best MADDEN game but only an average overall sports game.

                                It reminds me of NBA Live 14, the X's and O's are their, plays true to the sport but bad animations hinder the game badly. So many repeat legacy animations, momentum does not matter at all, you can be running full speed in the open field then all of the sudden get sucked into a canned tackle animation. Suction tackling is back, juking rarely works because when you attempt to juke you get sucked into a tackle, and the running game feels off, can't quite put my finger on it but running is not fun, backs have no burst and often get hung up on their teammates, and it seems like 50 percent of tackles result in the ball carrier landing on their backs; the juke modifier button needs to be removed and replaced with a push sensitive left analog control.
                                Don't know why it's so hard for EA Sports to get their sports games to move fluidly you would think they would have it figured out by now.

                                Its a good game but it could and should be so much better, im not giving them much praise for bringing the game back to how it was 10 years ago, but at least they are back on track, its not their year but it seems like its getting their, Madden 16 or 17 should be the one.
