    Re: Madden NFL 18 - ID the Mike

    That's cool and all but will the qb actually call him out?

      "Git gud."???

      Hmmm, wonder which age group this game is being catered towards? That concerns me more than anything else I have seen or read to date about M18...

        This and Defensive Assignments, along with "auto-flip" to strength in Madden 17.

        I like it.

        I wonder if we will get the QB animation pointing them out, like Peyton Mannings and Tom Brady

          Exactly.

          One thing I've learned with Madden is LOOKING like something is happening based on user adjustment is extremely important. It's been the case with defensive shading for a while.

              The source of that meme, Dark Souls, is not exactly a children's game.

              Anyway, I'm super-psyched for this feature. I hope it's basically a requirement to use to set up pass protections (else you get beat by blitzes basically immediately). One of the smaller but notable authenticity problems with the game IMO is how quickly both users and CPU players snap the ball after ready-for-play. This will at least slow them both down a touch.

                Hopefully, this means more organic protection in the game then.

                  Yeah, this is cool from a strategy perspective (if it works correctly (always have to throw that in there with a new mechanic. Lol)). And, if they add the animation and shoutout by the QB, that will be totally cool. And, yeah, 'git gud'. A term mostly used pre-teens after teabagging someone in a multiplayer game. Lol. I've seen it mostly in Destiny forums.

                    Seems like it has already been a feature in madden, that no one knew how to use.

                        It'll help even just for identification purposes (which it's pretty much just used for in real life)....especially when it comes to those ridiculous DB nanos that are rampant. Would love to see hot reads and sight adjusts identified as well but this is a good start.

                          It wasn't fully implemented in that port over actually. It was mentioned but was never really in the game.

                            It sets the OL protection and determines how the OL will handle pressures.

                              I would rather this be done automatically and tied to the QBs awareness rating.
