Load box and bail for D. Roll right throw right on O. The struggle to find a piece of goodness in gameplay is real.
I would say yes - just from the lack of rewards for playing. The gameplay is actually either on an equal level or slightly better, but the MUT mode as a whole is very much worse -
No Weekend Leavue rewards
BND cards
No Cards back from sets
Poor rewards from solos
Daily QS max at 10k vs 500k
No MUT Master to constantly have something to grind for
Season Pass system is designed to prevent grinders
The war against NMS
No trade block
Max/Min caps on auction block
Presents were horrible as will eggs be
I literally could go on for hours on the things EA has done over the last 5 years to make the game more less desireable to play. It’s like they are daring everyone to just quit…….
BND lineup is actually pretty solid. I have a lineup set up with just those. It's a 95 overall
Id say this year it has the most DDA ive ever witnessed, especially in Super Bowls. Even playing House Rules and in your playoff or Super Bowl, your opponent gets things like this all game:
1. More alert defenders and more knockouts that shouldn't be.
2. Quick sheds on thier DL
3. Easier time running the ball. You can tell right away that EA has nerfed your players ability to stop the run as your players dont shed. Theyre basically locked onto blocker. When you're pursuing with your user they nerf your speed.
4. You're defenders dumb-out. I had a clip of one of my outside CB in hard flat at the 5 yard line literally just run straight to the middle of the field after the snap. His RB was on a table route. What do you think happened? Wide open TD. Loss in the Super Bowl. I may have deleted the clip, but if not its hyst rical to watch.
5. Opponent gets more benefit of the doubt on bad reads and should be interceptions.
6. Your team can't run the ball.
7. WR runs bad/slow routes
Anyways, its always been this way, but this year they really kicked it up a notch.
I think I'll play on a seldom basis after Easter.
Other issues:
1. The season passes are bad.
2.
Rewards are bad.
3. There is no Weekend League.
4. Dollar defense stops the run against jumbo sets.
5. WR stops their routes randomly
6. WR running out of bounds while running their route
7. I personally dont care for the animations, especially the animations-basee pocket movement with your QB
8. Using the sprint button on offense attracks your opponents defenders to shed blocks. I dont understand EAs logic behind that. When a RB is carrying the ball its "see hole, explode (sprint) through hole"....but not in John Madden football.
9. Speed gets nerfed, whenever the game says so.
10. Animations are awful and need to go away. Why? Because it takes away user movement. User movement is a big part separating skill.
11. Hard to layer passes over linebackers. As I've mentioned before, the spacing and ball trajectory need to be revamped. Concepts like "stick" should be easier and spread out more to make them more effective, especially when EA has a limited pass rush block shed timer. Most say EA won't give you time to throw deep very often. Its true from my experience. Thats fine, because deep 1-play TDs rarely happen in real football. However, i believe shorter passing concepts should be given more room. To me, the field seems really condensed for these concepts to be effective. Stick, slant-flat, etc...
Lots of things wrong and lots of incompetence running the show. Unfortunately, its all the NFL has given the masses to play.

100% and this madden was supposed to be a make or break year
Madden gets worse year after year. Last good one was 25'

Out of curiosity is there a good player that thinks DDA is real? I just win my games and it doesn’t seem to be an issue

Ya'll regurtated each other till the only thing left on the menu was crap and now we're complaining?
This is the madden you all wanted? You all wanted the "Ronco Rotisserie" Abilities cause ya'll lazy and cant win games without them.
This game wont ever be good again, until the playerbase sets some sort of moral standards

we’ve talked before, and I know you’re a good dude, but come on. Don’t talk about morals in video game strategy

back again riding EA lol smh you are pathetic
elmango30 said:Out of curiosity is there a good player that thinks DDA is real? I just win my games and it doesn’t seem to be an issue
I wont say DDA.
Games built on animations and a broken RNG system. There are times where the CPU takes over and theres nothing you can do about it.
Whether it be DBs speed warping, or adding lag timers to players before they can do anything.
I have clips where I cant cancel a dropback or move my QB because the DE gets the super win animation and everyone had a clip where the DB 20 yards away warps in for the INT.

Its clear as day in the game.
I know several that would demolish you. Pro players.
Its in the game.
There is zero question about it.
I win a lot of games and I would win more if my internet service provider ever figures out why I lag so badly in 90 percent of my games. However,doesnt mean DDA isnt in the game, because it clearly is.

brother I strongly dislike EA. You never respond to messages challenging you, and complain on literally every post. Show some backbone
also edit I just noticed you said this in response to me saying there are no morals in video game strateg? You are a weird dude
