Can someone please let me know if the Dolphins stadium was renamed to Hard Rock Stadium? I'm in FL gearing up for this hurricane so haven't gotten to play since the patch dropped.

Thanks in advance!

I honestly think the AI offense plays better on All-Pro after the patch. They were having trouble moving the ball on me on All-Madden. I upped the AI run block slider on All-Pro and honestly the offense plays like it should on All-Madden.

Just need to crank down the human offense sliders and ramp up the AI defense sliders to make it more difficult for the Human to score.

I'll test out some all-madden again tonight but the Broncos put up 38 points on me last night on All Pro against the Bears. Before the Patch the AI offense on All-Pro wouldn't keep the foot on the gas so I always played All-Madden.

Need a larger sample size, but in 5 games, the AI offense if you crank up the run block slider on All-Pro seemed more effective than All-Madden at default.

Exactly, that's why I switched to All Madden this year. Because on all-pro they cpu, seemed to not even try on offense. My last play literally was Cincy, running a draw on like 3rd and 9, while being down 17-3, in the 3rd. They got 5 yds. In my cfm. I actually turned it off. Went to charter's sliders on all madden. Played just about the game of football ever.

Reading through the comments, tempted to say that most people want the game to be different to the next person - whether that's down to preference, ability or whatever else. Not sure EA will be able to keep everyone happy.

No doubt. I'm not a pure sim guy by any means. I want some big plays once in a while, runs after catches with some nifty moves and SOME open field fun in the game. Touch passes in 17, imo for example, were not working well, and LB's had been rediculous. I was always seeing lb's in deep coverage. New D-schemes for 17 and other details, fantastic, but for me this patch seems to give the player a chance to find the holes, and receivers actually hold onto the ball after you've worked so hard to get that ball in there.

It seems like more all-pro players are very happy with patch so far. More so than all madden players?

I'm not sure if it makes a difference, but the game was tested on all pro with 6 to 9 minute quarters.

These were just play now games. I am just trying to get a good set so I can pick up and play with any team. Once the final patch drops I'll decide if I want to dedicate the time to a CFM.

Haven't had a chance to play the game post-patch so a quick question to the guys who have played with the new patch.... are you guys seeing any difference with play action? Before the patch I didn't really see any real advantage of PA as most of the time I would get sacked and I never saw defense really bite into the PA no matter how often I ran the ball. Has the PA improved post patch and is there a real advantage of using the same if you are running the ball often?

Yes, indeed. Seems like mainly competitive on-line, user vs user, and Cfm off-line. But yeah, either way EA has their hands full trying to make everyone happy. Overall madden is in a good place and making strides. Between D81SKINS default(or close to) all pro and scheme matching of 16 and this year charters all madden sliders, this has been an incredible game the last 2 years. The best actually. I've played since the original Madden on Sega btw

My hope is that over the next few years is that they can get to a place where with sliders and other adjustments each type of participant can enjoy the game the way they want. There are alot of moving parts to make it happen, but clearly they should be able to get the computer to perform in a manner consistent with NFL stats, stronger or weaker, to allow user v computer players to get the experience they want; user sliders/adjustments to make each aspect of the game easier or more difficult; ways for online competitive players to keep or disable some of the things that help or hinder their play and enjoyment. One way they could improve is more text around the sliders and what they do, which way to move to get effect and define which sliders are thresholded or provide graded responses. I'm not saying everyone will be satisfied but I think maybe some more transparency it may help people make those adjustments to get the game they want. I don't think it needs to be 3 games in 1, but one game that can work for everyone and not at the expense of certain players. Maybe someday.

Although to be totally honest, all madden plays great. Except for the cpu qb. But let's face it, that's an enormous part of the cpu offense. Everything else is actually really, really good. I was just so focused on one thing.

I simulated 10 franchise seasons and the "Number of times blocked" in Season Punting stats is always equal to 0 for all team; it isn't real! Is it a bug?

Very small sample size of one game on All Pro in Offline Franchise Mode but here's what I noticed playing as Cowboys vs. Skins. Of note, I installed the patch and then the tuner update after that. I had previously installed the tuner, but removed it because the gameplay was completely dead feeling. 1) The kick wind meter was correct & cpu punter actually properly sky kicked in 8 mph wind twice. 2) CPU defensive line broke blocks abit quicker. 3) I still got smoked on a stretch play, but I user missed a tackle. 4) I struggled to run the ball and usually I do fairly well. 5) CPU secondary reacted quicker to the pass. I suffered 2 QB fumbles and I am not one to hold the ball. Coverage was tight. 7) I actually lost the game........but don't tell anybody OK? Overall, the game played really well and I was surprised. Again, one game sample size.

I mentioned this earlier in this thread and nobody seemed to think it was a big deal, or just didn't notice my post, but man defense is suffering from an animation glitch that damn near breaks it since the patch came out. Basically when a corner breaks down in man defense against specific patterns, an animation begins that slides them 3-5 yards out of position. I first saw the animation glitch with corner's defending comeback routes. Now in the link below I saw it defending an out pattern.

My friends and I are all noticing it but nobody on operation sports has said a thing about it. We've seen it both in our connected franchise and in play now. We've also seen it on default sliders and custom sliders. Surely someone who runs a man defense can replicate this or has seen it!?

Can't see the video without being subed to your twitter.

That's probably why you got no answer.
