    So yeah, Penalties after years of nothing?

    Afraid to ask but how are penalties looking this year? With the "addition" of refs, surely they fixed the penalties.

    Re: So yeah, Penalties after years of nothing?

    Played a bunch of the beta with penalties at 95..pretty much non existent...

    Played a game last night again with penalties at 95..saw a grand total of 2, both on the first drive..
    1-Offsides on Pittsburgh
    2-False Start Tampa Bay

    That's it..it's my belief the refs are only "window dressing" and for EA to say "see we listen to the community" because in what I've witnessed so far there wasn't any indication that penalties have been adjusted in any way.

    I mean seriously though, the game isn't really all that terrible, but I had mentioned in another thread it's almost game killing for me..as it's a real immersion killer.

      I'm going to try to get in a few games tonight and will give feedback with penalties jacked with 120 plays or so per game.Generally 10 min qtrs no accel.clock.

      I said I wouldn't buy until they fix this and am inclined to just go back to my '16 franchise and be fine with it.Penalties are a deciding factor in many games and to not have them is huge.

      It's hard to make the defense good enough in Madden without having a turnover fest.Penalties are one of the only true drive killers.

        I played a half of a preseason game and saw one penalty for holding. As much as I would love to see more penalties in this game unfortunately the penalty sliders also affect the game play to. While some may want more penalties it can also make the gameplay wonky and unrealistic at times.

          Ist game-2 penalties(holding and false start) in 135 plays.

          Very reminiscent of last year.I'll give feedback after a couple more games but expect that if you decide to buy the game you won't be seeing many penalties and I don't think they care to fix this.

          Otherwise you can get the game to play pretty well.

            Had 5 total last night in my first game.

              Figured I would share this here..finished a game a little while ago but this time jacked up the penalty sliders to 99, finished the game with a grand total of 4!

              This is playing 15min q's with a 12 acc clock...

              Also starting to see a weird "bug" I guess, on the rare occasion a penalty IS called, I'm now looking at the refs back, not sure what's going on there...lol

                Hoping Deuces can at least speak to this, but I'm afraid he won't. Just need someone at EA to see this feedback cause it really is a vibe killer

                  I've been feeding this back on here and over on answers for the past couple of years and they said that it's functioning how it's meant to. Lets face it, different game styles does not matter as it's all tuned for online gaming. Simulation is bull.

                    That's... really depressing to hear. Really hope Deuces sheds light on that internally there

                        I played half a game late last night but got really tired to finish but with the sliders at 51 had 1 penalty at halftime so I really don't think what value you put them at makes a difference.

                        You generally get 1 game out of 4 that you'll get that 4-6 but the other 3 you'll average 2.

                        I'll edit 2 teams penalty traits to undisciplined and try that but it didn't work last year so I'm not expecting much.

                          Agree 100%, not sure if you seen my earlier post in here, but I had played a game this morning with penalties cranked up to 99, and saw a grand total of 4...lmao

                          It doesn't matter the value it's set on, this is something EA desperately needs to adjust.

                            The modding folks helped with penalties for 22 so I imagine they can do the same with 24.

                              I played the first half of a game with the undisciplined trait and had 2 pass interference and an illegal contact which was declined.This was with 70 plays.You would think there would be at least a couple penalties on the linemen which would have been encouraging.

                              It is what it is at this point.
