The hateful tweet of the week had me LMAO!

I really appreciate these guys openly addressing common criticisms, even if they don't address all of the issues, I give 'em credit for not trying to hide them under the rug.

Hey, a Roadman question was answered.

Bowling Pin Tackles are being addressed.

Good to hear about defense being addressed.

I really like this approach, they aren't spilling the beans, but giving a piece meal approach.

Because they update ratings during the season so they can duplicate real life.

If a 72 OVR Vick was putting up those same numbers in the video game, would he really need an increase to 93?

Can you explain what bowing pin tackles are?? I don't know what that means to be honest. Never herd that term before.

4 or 5 tackles are hovering around a ball carrier and instead of tackling them, just before tackling them, they all fall to the ground.

Oh ok bro. Thanks for clearing that up for me. Now I understand what you are saying now. Thanks alot.

I like almost everything I hear. But, I wish they would take the fact that not a lot of ppl play superstar mode as a sign that they need to give it some attention. Please don't brush it aside EA.

Roadman, I'm not trying to knock your excitement man, but what I gathered from that was they're looking into it. He didn't actually say it was going to be fixed.
