Re: Madden NFL 17 Address All 3 Phases of the Game: Offense, Defense & Special Teams
"Smarter" is a subjective thing. I can't really answer that. What I can say is that they do have access to the same tools that users do. The AI blocked at least 1 of my kicks.
(I'm being slightly vague here because I don't want to create an idea as to how often it happens. Since it's still being tuned, I honestly don't know how it'll be when you play it. But it did happen)Comment

On lower difficulties, there is a button prompt that will pop over the ball carrier's head indicating that you should do a certain move. It's optional on any difficulty but defaults to on for rookie and I think pro.Comment

Can you expand more on altered? Do defensive ends get more pressure? I know this was one of the main complaints in 16.Comment

I am going to err on the side of caution and say this is an impression.
However, I can say that the new types of zone coverages should help alleviate this, in theory.Comment

Well, with interior linemen getting into their proper gaps, this could in theory help defensive ends. I can't really go into any more detail than that.Comment

I like that the AI also has the same tools as the user. I love that the AI can block kicks as well. Thanks."Smarter" is a subjective thing. I can't really answer that. What I can say is that they do have access to the same tools that users do. The AI blocked at least 1 of my kicks.

I can imagine the criticism we will be seeing after release when so many people complain about not being able to stop the run and never being able to make the play when they user their favorite player.
I think it is a safe bet to say that most gamers think gap assignment is being assigned charity work at Gap stores.

Yes, H2H defensive play, in games that aren't no switch, have always been about Users freelancing all over the field, taking advantage of various flaws in the gameplay mechanics that allow them to completely ignore their assignment and still disrupt the play quite often.I can imagine the criticism we will be seeing after release when so many people complain about not being able to stop the run and never being able to make the play when they user their favorite player.

If the implementation is good, it will be hilarious to see Users getting gashed game after game because they are unable to maintain discipline with their User controlled LB or safety and then complaining about defense being broken or offense being OP.Jordan Mychal Lemos

Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.
Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.Comment

@MrPrice if your still answering questions:
1- Are there new HB moves? or just the pop up and the blocking more so what is new to change the run game?
2- Did you use a Power Back, and was he useful as a bruiser ,trucking people.
3-Did stiff arm work if you used a Power Back?
4- Did you notice oline blocking all around be better? Ex- not standing there watching a defender just blow right by them, looking at them, but never even trying to engage them?
Also thanks for your time and answering our many many questions that you can.Comment
