Re: Madden NFL 17 Title Update #2 Available Now For Xbox One & PS4 - Details Included
No, those impressions won't be coming from me. The only thing I wanted, not included out of the box, was the color rush uniforms. Outside of that, I'm done downloading patches and tuners for madden 17. I'll watch the impressions and try to identify a consensus, but so far, the thing that stands out is the nerf to the kicking game. That in itself says a tremendous amount about this patch.
It is right around this time every year that I start getting really irritated with EA. This year I'm just going to alleviate that frustration by enjoying the game at the color rush patch.

I'm already disable the Internet connection on my ps4. Started madden and no patch update. So I'm good the game plays great without the tuner. And I guess I will never know about the patch. There are a few things I will be missing but it not worth the risk.
They say that the tuner is downloading even with the patch. Maybe the tuner is not attached to the patch? I'm wondering if you could update and get the patch fixes and delete the tuner and get the gameplay we get now with the patches fixes.

It's a different tuner. I already had the tuner. This morning I downloaded the patch then when I started the game up it asked me to download a tuner. Not sure what it is

I started a new Dynasty and play first match. First impresions:
- Formation subs works for me, with a custom playbook (FIXED??)
- IR doesnt count for the total players, because of this..the cpu dont cut players in Preseason W4 (FIXED)
- CPU punt low with wind in front and normal with the wind in favor, no sky punt. (FIXED??)
- Wind arrow is now correct, right direction
- Human QB (Bradford) fail more with pressure.
- I see a QB fumble...but i´m passing...my fail
- I fell running plays more natural.
- CPU play a lot of different plays, incluiding a FG fake
- CPU defense feel harder
- Pursuit is better now
Its only a match...but i feel it better. i play with Charter´s Slider Set.
Note: Horrible lost against Titans with unstoppable offense and 4 picks

It doesn't. RB is a pass option in some formation. It has no other effect while passing

Oh great....
I saw the note regarding "fixing" something that would result in causing more interceptions and wondered what the problem was in the first place.
Interceptions were one thing I did not have an issue with on either side of the ball. Seemed to be working out great previous to the patch.
Hopefully turning the slider down can keep it in check.Comment

Thank you, I don't know what I was thinking on that. I immediately thought of ball carrying.Comment

interesting. will play some game and see if i notice a difference.
no.
but to see the changes in the draft classes, you'll probably have to wait until the next new draft class is generated.Comment

I've seen two statements regarding the CPU cutting players...any other observations on this? I've got a CFM saved where this comes into play but I won't be able to load it up for a couple of hours.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 17 Title Update #2 Available Now For Xbox One & PS4 - Details Included
Just finished my second game and lost 42-28 to the Seahawks. Kind of a weird game where they ended up at 42 because of a missed 2-pt. and five FG's but it was a lot different than the Broncos game I played. Couldn't get much going on offense and was down 21-0 early. Scored a couple late TD's to make it close.
After two games it definitely feels like the game is playing better than pre-patch. I was ready to hang it up yesterday but these two games have been fun. My defense (and defense as a whole) seems to be reacting much better to the pass and run. I'm seeing DB's make plays on routes and the ball that I wasn't seeing before. I think outside CB's are playing the run a bit too strong for my taste but I'm not sure whether it might have more to do with how WR's can't really block or not though. Defense overall just seems better which is nice because it doesn't feel so much like I'm getting screwed rather than getting beat. I gave up 42 points but felt like my defense played fine. Gave up a bunch of points off turnovers and couldn't stop the run which was nice.
Another that I'm noticing that is better but I didn't see in the patch notes was that RB's seem a lot better at staying on their feet and not ragdolling to the ground when they make contact with anything. Pre-patch there were a ton of times where both user and CPU RB's would run into the back of lineman or reached out arms of the DL and just collapse or go into dead mode where they just fall to the ground. In my last too games I've noticed more "grinding" and bouncing off which is really nice.
QB play is still a big issue for me. Russell Wilson had 9 incompletions in the game and five were throwaways. I wouldn't have a problem with them so much if they made sense and happened in better situations. It seems like when the QB is out of the pocket and you'd expect them to throw it away, they hang on to the ball and take sacks. Wilson moved quite a bit, sometimes in a weird way where basically as soon as the ball was snapped he would immediately move to the right, same thing was happening with Simian. Had an absolutely horrible AI play in the 3rd quarter, I'll let it speak for itself:
<div style='position:relative;padding-bottom:57%'><iframe src='https://gfycat.com/ifr/RingedBoilingAnnashummingbird' frameborder='0' scrolling='no' width='100%' height='100%' style='position:absolute;top:0;left:0;' allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
Stuff like that can't be happening. That was by far the worst from the game. Had another sack-fumble, this time on my end. Same issue with them as the throwaways, if they happened organically or as a result of the arm getting hit then that's fine. But when you get just get hit and as soon as contact is made the ball just falls out of the QB's hands like he lost all strength in his body it's very frustrating to watch. Had a bit of an odd play where the Hawks ran a streak to Baldwin who had a good cushion from my CB Gaines and Baldwin looked like he got a huge speed boost to make the catch for an 89-yard score. He ate up the cushion and then just blew right by Gaines even though Gaines was running deep the whole time, looked really odd. I've fumbled four times in two games now two on big hits, one on a strip, and one on a sack-fumble.
Side note, really enjoying the game without commentary. Going to play another game and continue impressions.Comment
