Pass Rush in Next Gen

[Crzy25]

I am still debating if I want to go out and get a PS4 for Madden now or if I want to wait until next year.

One thing about Madden on current gen that drives me nuts is how 3-4 OLB's and 4-3 RDE generate no pass rush at all. Has this been fixed in Next Gen? In my current season I had Cameron Wake a 97 overall at LDE and he got 12 sacks in 8 games and I had Dion Jordan 83 over at RDE and he got 0 sacks in 8 games. Then I switched them and Jordan had 10 sacks over the next 8 games while Wake had 1.

This has been a problem in Madden for a while, and if it still is I will probably hold off on getting it.

So is this fixed in next gen?

Not really, I had to mess with the sliders to get any rush. Before I did that, QBs had a ALL day.

it's better than last gen. but you still need to adjust the sliders a ton.

This is just me. I'd say wait. The thing with the pass rush is the good rush animations are random. You have no control on "how your line will rush." I'm not talking about giving them crash right/left so on and so forth. I'm talking about getting your ends/olb's to speed rush and try to get around the tackles. Might happen one time an entire game

I drafted JJ Watt specifically to put at right end (4-3) so I can't tell you with certainty. But with Watt at RDE and Dion Jordan at LDE, Watt broke single season sack record (with Jordan not far behind).

I wouldn't go out and get a ps4 just for madden..

But with that said..

If you get a ps4 and enjoy madden on current gen. You'll absolutely love next gen madden.

I won't call it perfect, but it's fixed. I HATED what you described. 70's DE's breaking the sack record while 90's DE's on the other side doing no damage. That HAS been fixed. DT's seem to get pass rush too, now.

Pass rush, seems the same on both systems (360, One). In my online GM, i get great pressure form the LE, Brooks Reed after trading Mario Williams. I get such great pressure that I miss the QB 90% of the time. I put pressure on him mixing up outside and inside rushes. My backside end or DT gets an extra second or two to get free and make the sack. I average 3-5 sacks a game but my user (LE) only has 8 through week 13.
