Mid blitz/ hb direct/ speed boosting/ RPOs

I remember I had to call only play action plays and hot route the running back for my line to pick it up consistently.

yea that can be the annoying part but with hot routes it becomes less of a big deal

All of those plays can be stopped with the right adjustments. Let me know if you need help. Or you can just continue to be stubborn and call people cheaters. You choose.

The issue with those plays is the way you have to adjust to stop them, it’s not taking football knowledge/ principles or skill. That’s where the issue lies. Yes there is a way to stop things but it should be as simple as calling the correct coverage or play. The adjustment should be to man something up or put a flat zone for RPOs. Stack the box and HB direct should be stuffed, just like in real football. 
It takes away what actually happens where a team would have to beat them from the pass but have no shot to run. 

Not hit 20 buttons move players alignments that make zero sense in a football stand point to change the AI, those types of plays need to be fixed or taken out the game I should be able to tell me de or lb to cover the flat and ignore the run

Social media. As for the promos im not sure. Its been pretty ridiculous since easter imo.

I despise EA, glitchers, scumbag losers, etc. 

Mid Blitz isn't an issue this year because of the untarget thing. I can count on one hand how many times I've ran into a blitz that was legitimately not blockable no matter what. That being said, there's a problem with the god-tier OL not doing enough & two or one-man pressure being allowed. I don't care if the two guys have every X-Factor & Ability in the game, they should never get through my OL if I have Secure Protector, All Day, & Post-Up. 

HB Direct was busted last year in CFB25. It just shouldn't be in the game if it's going to be such an issue. You have to do very specific things to give yourself a chance at stopping it, & when you factor-in Abilities & audibles, it's an obnoxious hassle. Frankly I think anyone running HB Direct should have their Xbox or PS bricked by being sent so many messages. It's fatherless behavior & should be treated as such. 

I don't have an issue with Speed Boosting, & it's beyond me as to why this seems to be such a pain-point for so many with the game. I'm not saying it should exist, but it's never registered on my radar for caring. 

I didn't play Madden 25 last year, I played CFB. I don't have that many issues with Madden 26 (assuming we're skipping over the baseline points about the game being terrible in terms of gameplay & how MUT is structured). CFB25's gameplay was infinitely more frustrating & the meta was *waaaaaaaaaay* worse. There's some annoying things, I've gotten frustrated, but the margin or error seems a lot wider this year when it comes to playing the real losers. (I don't really play Ranked, got Champion or whatever in Season 6 though. I don't play Ranked, although I may try at some point. I've won plenty of H2H events, & right now I'm on like a 60 game win streak on H2H. Just for reference.)

It’s a video game. Lmao hitting 20 different buttons is kinda the point of playing video games. Everyone thinks madden is suppose to be like real football. It’s never been realistic and it will never be realistic.
