Anyone still playing Madden/NCAA Football?

Kodos · 11-19-2003, 01:19 PM

I notice that our FOFC leaderboard never moves now. And that nobody has a winning record. I have been playing in dynasty mode recently (trying to move IU up the rankings), but would love to play somebody online again. Is everyone preoccupied with FOF2004?

I bought Madden, played it for maybe two weeks, and haven't picked it up since. They tinker with the gameplay every year, and this year they just messed it up enough that I couldn't get into it.

I play madden nearly every day. Also, I agree that there are some pretty big flaws with it, but I still like it.

ScottVib · 11-19-2003, 01:46 PM

Play NCAA 2004 at least a few times a week, more if I have time.

lcjjdnh · 11-19-2003, 02:26 PM

I play madden online with a few friends every couple days. I'd be gald to play with someone here but haven't gotten the chance yet.

Kodos · 11-19-2003, 02:41 PM

I have you in my EA Messenger, but have never seen you online. What time are you usually on?

illinifan999 · 11-19-2003, 03:21 PM

I play my Illini dynasty religiously, and like to spend time in Madden with all my college players. If Madden had the SI feature I might be able to get into that a little more.....

VPI97 · 11-19-2003, 03:24 PM

I play NCAA Online at least one game a night. It's turned into my all-time favorite game.

BigDPW · 11-19-2003, 03:28 PM

I probably play Madden Online about 1-4 games a week lately... I usually go in spurt though...

I too have not seen many FOFCers online for madden lately...

I did see lcjjdnh one night but he was already in a game with someone so I found someone else to play...

I probably only play NCAA online about once every 3-4 weeks now... I find there are many more cheesers on NCAA than Madden...

lcjjdnh · 11-19-2003, 03:51 PM

Usually I'm on early in the day around 3 EST but occasionally i'll play later in the night at about 8:30-9. Also, it's better to arrange a time to play beforehand, I rarely go without someone in mind who I'm going to play.

Eaglesfan27 · 11-19-2003, 06:07 PM

I've been working a lot so I'm just playing FOF2004 and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (PC) during my free time, but I hope to resume my Army dynasty on NCAA Football this weekend as I actually have 2 days off in a row.

Dr. Sak · 11-19-2003, 06:17 PM

I am always look ing for a NCAA2004 game. IM me at bsak16 to set up a game.

Sharpieman · 11-19-2003, 06:19 PM

I play Madden dynasties all the time I currently have two dynasties going, the SF 49ers of course and a Jaguar dynasty too. I don't play online, no cable modem damnit.

This would explain why I never see you, as I am almost never on before 10 or 11 CST.

NCAA sometimes...I'm pretty much into ESPN Hockey for my console playing.

Pumpy Tudors · 11-19-2003, 08:56 PM

If someone can assure me that the controls on NCAA or Madden aren't TOO different on PS2 compared to Xbox, I'll at least rent the games through Gamefly for PS2 exclusively for online play. I have both games on Xbox, but I'll play on PS2 if I don't have to re-learn too many controls. I despise the PS2 controller, but I'll have to take what I can get.

Kodos · 11-20-2003, 10:56 AM

I think the game plays better on the dual shock, because the game was designed on the PS2 and ported to Xbox. But then, I love the dual shock and have tried to get used to the Xbox controller. At least it isn't as bad as the Dreamcast or Gamecube controllers...

Pumpy Tudors · 11-20-2003, 06:47 PM

The one thing I really hate about the Dual Shock is that the left analog stick is at the bottom. If the stick were closer to the center of the controller, I'd feel a lot more at home. Are there any PS2 controllers out there that are designed more to my liking?
