I've played 3 full games, 15 minute Quarters, runoff to 12 seconds, Adjusted All-Madden Sliders, so I've seen a fair amount of plays.

I was sacked 7 times, in those games, my QB, Goff, fumbled once. It was legit, he got cracked and coughed it up. CPU was sacked 11 times, had 7 in the last game, best performance by my dline in M17, and there was one fumble by the CPU QB.

I'm seeing more fumble in the field of play by other skill position players though, but it's good, you need to pay attention to covering up the ball and avoiding the big hit/strip a lot more now.

Some formation subs changes still don't stick.

Others may have a different perception, but these are other gameplay observations that I have:

Kicking does seem a little easier, but I need to kick some more FGs to be sure.

All players with the ball seem to fight for more yardage now. They don't necessary break the tackle but they will get fall forward or get an extra yard or two before going down. This really helps decrease the TFL numbers as RBs will get back to the LOS more instead of losing two yards. I felt like I won more Tackle battles too. There is less all or nothing in the run game now.

The WRs on my team catch better now, they're more like the CPU in that they can make some tough catches 1 on 1 now, but still will drop the ball if there are multiple defenders around.

My defenders play the ball in the air a lot better now. DB's for both teams seem to be to recover better on the deep ball if they lose the press battle.

Would still like to see all receivers run better routes near the sidelines still too many plays where their momentum just carries them out of bounds.

CPU still playing too much press coverage with cover 1 or 0 in the middle of the field.

The grounding plays seem less overt, the passes all seem to be near a WR now, but I'd like more movement by the QB and the passes to be a little less "uncatchable"

Scrambling is still not where it needs to be, Wilson had a couple of runs, but they weren't as decisive as they should have been.

For the User shading inside and out side still doesn't seem to work. I feel like it has always worked for the CPU though.

Overall I think the update improved the gameplay in a lot of ways, and I'm going to keep playing this game to death.
