    Re: Madden NFL 17 Trial Available Now For EA Access Subscribers, Play For 10 Hours

    So got a game in me denver vs the Raiders.

    Denver's secondary can cover their pass rush gets stonewalled constantly. All my sacks were Carr sitting in the pocket for ages waiting for a guy to get open. Ended with 3 sacks because he rolled out. That's not good. Granted one game but not surprised denver can't pass rush.

    Denver's offensive line is as expected can't block a thing so oakland has a pass rush very little time in pocket and unable to run. Couldn't run from under center holes would be closed before the hand off. From shotgun had much better luck but at that point I was to far behind. 13-0.

    Granted that score was misleading as their first points is one thing I really didn't like. A miss push on the accuracy part of a punt will effect power. Which is dumb. A kicker shanks a punt of the side of his foot it goes out of bounds my point for missing accuracy went right down the middle of the field for 20 yards allowing a return. Don't think I've ever seen a shank like that big time since I had max power on the kick. Out of bounds no return is more acceptable than a short punt down the middle of the field.

    Their only score was a hit on lynch as he was throwing. Ruled a fumble but it was caught in the air so either way a turnover. Good looking play overall my fault for trying to throw late on a boot leg with lynch.

    Their last score was a solid drive for a fg. They ended the game with 68 yards and I ended with 145 with a final score of 13-10 them. But that joke of a punt and my defenders getting stonewalled constantly sucked but hopefully that was just a fluke and denver's defense is worth playing because sending 5 or 6 should be able to get pressure and not coverage sacks.

      Halftime report has somehow gotten worse, no commentary on some plays. They really need to scrap what they have and start over from scratch.

          Not sure if this helps, but I'll tell u how it worked for me.

          1. I opened ea access
          2. Selected Trial Games
          3. Clicked on madden 17
          4. That opened to a screen where I selected 'Game Details'
          5. That took me to Microsoft store.
          6. There were 2 available options. Buy game (or Play game, actually as I pre-ordered it) and Play Trial
          7. Clicked on Play Trial

          Not sure if you've seen any/all of those screens. But, that's the order I remember working for me. I logged in 'early' a little after 6pm, so not sure if things look exactly the same now?

              Hmmm, right on. Yeah, the first time I tried it, there were actually 2 choices within Microsoft store, 1. Play 2. Play Trial. Since both choices were there, I chose 'Play Trial', and it worked. If u can't seem to get in, perhaps a hard reset? Maybe, there's something screwy in the Xbox?


              Edit: and, yes, I pre-ordered and it had already downloaded.

                  Well. I played my 2nd game vs Cle. The good: the pass d still ain't no joke and it really feels realistic, time wise. Like, u need to throw curls possibly BEFORE the break back shoulder to make sure u get a catch. Overall, I continue to enjoy gameplay and started pulling off some more special moves. THIS is a PLEASURE! The moves trigger when u tell them to (more responsive than 16, imo) and u can really set up some nice jukes. Again, so far, it does NOT feel overpowering, it just feels good. The bad: Cle. Period. Cle looks REALLY BAD. Lol. The ugly: RG3. And, this is worrisome in terms of madden gameplay and/or for Cle fans in real life. I played 6 min qtrs with 20s acc clock. Whether I blitzed, played man, or played zone, this dude would NOT throw the ball!!! Lol. Seriously, he ended up throwing 0/0. Yes. 0/0. I sacked him 9 times. Yes, NINE TIMES. He fumbled 3 times. On a positive note, he ran 7 times for 70 yds. But, again, that's part of the problem, he REFUSED to throw!!! Lol. Maybe, it's a mix of rg3 being worse these days and lack of WR corps, so basically, no one was ever open, so he didn't throw it or throw it away, even, idk. But, Cle ended up with -72 yds passing!! Lol. So, we'll hope this is an anomaly. But, yeah, it was ugly. The game was all-pro, FYI.

                    So i've been playing since the trial went online, and i still am at less than 9 hours, it took like 3 to get less than 10 hours to go away. Did they increase the time just not the number?

                        There is, once again, a game breaking bug in franchise mode. When playing online against another user the settings don't save. You are forced to play in zoom cam the whole game.

                            I had to access it through the store and not EA access or my dled game. I had to also go into the store a couple times before the option appeared.
