Re: Madden NFL 17 Patch 1.10 Available Now, Patch Notes Included
No one has been more critical towards EA than I have. Not making excuses but it is because with my health issues and age. I can't play real sports any more. I love FB, Baseball, and golf. I realize that this is just a video game but like a child, I live out my fantasies. I make myself and my friends young again and just want to play a somewhat realistic FB game. As critical as I have been, I will applaud EA for this last patch. It is supposed to fix many issues that I was not even aware of. It seems too many that it is a pretty good patch and I am happy for everyone that benefits from it.
Although I applaud EA for this patch and there effort, I also think this patch took way too long to get here. I am sure they must have their reasons, But FB season is over. I didn't believe there would even be a patch and pretty much lost faith and interest. I truly thought the next patch would be Madden 18.. I WAS WRONG.
Anyone that knows me knows that I never play on line and only FRANCHISE and Play of the moment. My biggest issue was Punting and QB scrambling and acc. I thought the rest of the game was pretty good, I learned to sim my punts against the wind after reading roadman postings, although I disagreed with him at first. It turned out to be the best solution. Thanks roadman and everyone else that takes the time to test advise and help others to enjoy the game.
So seeing that the punting issue was supposed to be fixed. I was excited to play the game again. Last night I played my first game with my Browns against the Jags for a test. The wind was 10 mph blowing as I believe straight north. Not sideways. When the Jags punted against the wind, it seemed to be ok, although every punt was aimed for the sidelines and went out of bounds. I let the CPU do the punting for my Browns, My first punt against the wind was a sky high punt for about 15 yds. Basically just like the OOTB version of the game. To make a long story short. 5 of 6 of my punts against the wind were sky high and less than 20 yds. When I punted myself, It never went more than a 40 yds. This is based on one game but the disappointment was huge. I am truly hoping that this was somehow just a fluke, but wondering if anyone else that plays POTM has experienced this. I am going to try again today and if this continues, It’s back to simming which I absolutely hate, or just give up on the game until next year.
For the rest of you, I hope the patch makes the game better for your enjoyment. It hasn’t for me so far.
