More Games, More Dominant Schemes, More Predictable Opponents, More RNG Losses

I'm all facts, and you're a sociopath.

I was definitely right about the emotional part.

press square or X to catch the ball

I really should get the benefit of run-after-the-catch when I have two steps on a defender. If I was dropping balls getting smacked on crossers, I'd have no legitimate complaint.

Which one of us is repeating ourselves? I bring something new all of the time, and the best I get from people is basically the equivalent of "Cheat back". It's tiresome. There's twenty-plus cheat plays, and so many abusive tactics that are obviously anti-football, but some snot-nosed kid somewhere thinks it's really cool to get wins by pretending he's not copying someone else's glitches.

Saying you made your own scheme that wins games doesn't mean it's not cheating when you dumb out the AI. Saying it's cool that coins flip are winning games is all nice and everything, but it's not how I got through school, it's not how I keep up at work, it's not how you make things work in the family, and so on. If you like wins without merit, well, that's why I think you're just wrong.

eh I think you repeat yourself constantly but I at least get the impression you think about what you’re saying. I was talking more about if someone strings together 8 different superhero franchises and then says poop in every comment section 

And I think that treating a video game like real life makes it less fun and less of a situation to blow off steam. there isn’t an ebook for my masters degree, I just have to study relentlessly during my day, madden isn’t as hard as that

Played another guy. HB Direct. HB Direct. Pass for minimal game. Batted down on fourth. About to take a 14-point lead in the 2nd quarter. He quits.

This stuff happens all the time.

The difference is that in some games, the HB Direct ball carrier breaks fifteen tackles. This time he didn't.

I have to agree on this HB direct with FT RBs and now 7 vanguards on the field. The fact these people think they are actually good at the game is hilarious. 

They literally couldn’t get wins till now since everyone can speed boost with FT and vanguard it sucks EA allows this in the game . Yes it can be stopped but it’s annoying and turns it into who can dumb out the O line or the defense better. I just don’t get how these losers think its fun to hold turbo and do nothing else your not earning the win.

They can’t even be honest with them selves that until all these abilities got added they were losing games before, and will suck once the new madden is out and the play is taken out the game

I think you have this wrong. The people who have been the worst offenders at this game all along are adopting Vanguard cheese as a low-skill component of their Cheating Toolbox to get quick concessions from users with lineups that are overmatched or too heavily built to stop the pass, or who lack the knowledge to make the right alignment and rush lane adjustments. These aren't losing players who are finally able to win. Many of the losing players quit months time ago.

I'll be transparent about dumb losses. Completed a pass beyond midfield, and ready to kick a field goal to bring my score up to 6-7 at halftime, but forgot to press the timeout button. He got his score on almost exclusively Vanguard cheese. His passing game was inept.

Got a stop on fourth down during the second half. If I had kicked that field goal before halftime, I had an opportunity for a 9-7 win. Dumb mistake that cost me.

Had my opponent's user running all over the place in the wrong space almost the entire game. He managed a user pick on the final play of the game, and only because I was beginning to run short on clock after numerous bad animations resulted in dropped catches and blown blocking assignments.

But for all of the adversity I faced this game, I played well enough -- unpredictably enough -- that I could have won. The sad thing was that he was very predictable, and even his no-huddle cheese didn't help him that much. RPO's at clutch moments, all the typical cheating, non-football crap. But this one was on me.

And with all of this, I want to say that, yet again, I completed a pass into empty space, and my 99 SPD player got tracked down by a couple defenders with a lot of ground to make up. I don't understand why my opponents persistently get better speeds than I do on what would be game-deciding plays. I almost never outrun my opponents going down broadway.

If it's not DDA, the RNG I have to deal with game-in and game-out is completely off the scale others seem to deal with. I'm sorry that it's anecdotal, I'm sorry that I haven't been able to reverse compile Madden's code to find the algorithms that do this to some of us, but it just happens too often.

More nonsense. Early forced fumble. Shut the guy down on offense thereafter. But bad animations set me up for third and long. And then somehow a pick downfield (I pressed a button other than the one I intended to press, not the one for the guy that was open) gets returned for six. All of my receivers- and blockers-turned-defenders got pancaked. RNG to the max.

[PS5] What's with the game lately? I can't check abilities on players. It's got low-res green boxes where I should be able to read players and, most importantly, who's running Avalanche. I'm giving up a lot of fumbles lately, and it sucks to not even be able to see where the threats are.

Dumb out the AI? That’s the whole point of a video game lmao. That’s like saying in real football running a play action pass in a 3 TE set is cheating because it looks like you’re going to run the ball so the defense moves more people in the box. Wtf? Manipulating defense’s is apart of football. People running specific route combos to get routes open is not cheating. 

Honestly the only thing that I could say would be cheating in this game would be the field goal blocking out of random defenses. Theres really nothing the person kicking can do about it but hope it doesn’t happen. Everything else can be stopped, it’s not cheating.

I’m not glazing anything. Madden definitely has its flaws but it’s really not that bad. It’s funny how everyone says it so bad and then they keep buying the game every year. Then they say well it’s the only game so I have to buy it. Lmao it must not be that bad if people keep buying it.
