Classic vs Form

I'm curious what percentage of players are using which, and why?

I played about 10 games with form and just switched back. I'm hoping the old stand by will give me some comfort and less int... I love the concept but my completion percentage is also terrible with form.

Thoughts?

Re: Classic vs Form

After 30 something games with free form just switched to classic for the last few games. Might stay on classic because free form while nice with certain passes has caused me a lot of silly INTs. The game is definitely broken when it comes to INTs on both human and cpu so classic has lowered my picks at least a little thus far. Ball seems to also come out differently from QB hands

Re: Classic vs Form

Re: Classic vs Form

Classic for me because it feels better and makes things fair vs the CPU since they don't use the new Passing mechanics.

With the new system it was confusing at 1st but after that I noticed when I played with Dak and Cooper Rush I could make the same exact type of passes with both of them

I went back to Classic kept the QBA slider at 5 and Cooper was a little more off target than Dak doing my preseason games.

It's a good idea by EA but I think they need to refine it some more and make it more ratings based as opposed to user stick skill

Re: Classic vs Form

My main reasons for sticking with the classic system is because I'm really not interested in user skill in that area of the game to a point, I can't actually see where the reticles are so that hampers things and honestly it's just another thing for me to worry about much like the vision cone was back when that was in the game.

Classic allows me to have it still be ratings based and not have to worry about "aiming" if that makes sense.

Re: Classic vs Form

Skill based since day one. Love it. Now I got my settings where I like them where i use free form 90% of the time. It's great.

Re: Classic vs Form

Once it clicks, freeform is really fun. Best tip I can give is to look at the spot you want to throw to and bring the reticle to that spot. When I first started I was looking at the receiver and trying to aim from there, but that resulted in a lot of overthows.

Re: Classic vs Form

I went with "free form" and persisted with it during the first week of struggles.


It was one of the best thing I've done on Madden in 30 years.


It has completely changed how I attack the opposing D. I throw a much more diverse route tree now. The ability to drop one in to the corner of the EZ in a way that I couldn't before is just really fun!
