[Steve_OS]

Madden NFL 17 title update #8 is available now, check out the patch notes below.

• Addressed a gameplay issue where a receiver who was hot routed would switch back to his previous assignment if he was motioned and not fully set.
• Addressed a gameplay issue where the QB would freeze after hot routing a running back and motioning him out before he became fully set.
• Various upgrades to improve the Madden Ultimate Team Holiday experience.
• Enhanced preparations to help deal with the upcoming Freeze.

Unfortunate that the punting issue and QB accuracy still go untouched but this TU looks like it was a direct result of what happened in the Madden Classic a little over a week ago. The QB freeze glitch happened in the grand finals and pretty much cost one of the players the game.

Last game; CPU punts the ball for 25 yards setting me up for a game winning field goal. This really needs to be addressed.

I remember when Clint told me EA do care about offline/simulation crowd.

Punting issue ? Still there
QB Accuracy (or sliders issues) ? Still there.

But a fix is needed for online gameplay ? Fast fast, we need to pop out this fix or we'll lose money !

No way would this title update be for the OS crowd, after seeing a title update a few weeks ago. Clint mentioned the next big title updates comes in December or January. I don't consider this a big title update at all and no one else should, either.

Punting is still fixed. We just don't deserve it.

Enough is enough. EA said the punt issue WAS FIXED a month ago before the patch but didn't include it in patch 7; it just fell off for some unexplained reason. Patch 8 and nothing again. Now an OL player whines because of an issue that cost him a game and EA bends over backwards to patch it immediately within two weeks time. Make all the excuses you want for them, it is obvious that OL comes long and far before offline franchise people. Of course the big sell advertisement was all Franchise this year. What a joke.

So if the punting issue was FIXED as CLINT said, then why wasn't it added to this amazing quick fix for On-liners. Guess it just isn't important enough for us. What about the games the punting issue has cost me? Guess that don't matter either.

In the meantime, we wait for absolutely NOTHING, Maybe they will fix it during the middle of baseball season long after FB season is over. Or maybe in Madden 18, but I have lost total faith and I personally don't think the issue has been fixed nor will it be.

I will believe it when I see it, but at this point I feel I am blind.

Agreed, this was purely for UT only, preparing for the Christmas promo as well.
