I completely agree. Like YTG said just look at the 2K Dev team. It's like that practically took our wishlist here and made MyLeague out of it. If Madden would give us the control that 2k15 is giving their fans they would really take this game to another level.

Also, the EA UFC's dev interaction has been amazing. Gameplay-wise, the game "out of the box" left a lot to be desired. However, after a ton of interaction with this community and two patches it's plays like a brand new game. After this my expectation for their next game is through the roof!

As far as the Madden team I don't understand why they lurk but don't interact here. We have a lot of intelligent people who genuinely want to make the game better. Why not pick their brains a little more? I get that this forum was a little volatile during the Ian days, but most of those guys aren't here anymore. Plus, the mods here have their back 100%, so if anyone is disrespectful then they be gone with the wind!

Don't get me wrong Madden 15 is certainly the best Madden we've had in a long time and I'm super pumped to get started (as soon as some of these problems are addressed). However, anyone who thinks that the game doesn't have a ton of room to improve (especially with legacy issues like this) is fooling themselves. Madden 15 has given me hope though. I think with this team in place our football gaming future is bright. With that said if they took a few suggestions from here then maybe, just maybe we could get there a little sooner.

I think so. This contributes to how many 350+ carries per RB we are seeing. Heck, some carry 400+ times.

RB carries are definitely screwey in the sim engine.

Absolutely. The improvements in game play are phenomenal this year. If they can fix the sim stats, I'll be playing this game for a very long time. This team really seems to have a much better vision for the game than previous teams had.

On a sidenote, one tiny thing that irks me is that they no longer have the RB1-RB2 split slider. It stopped working in one of the previous games, so Madden eventually just took it out altogether, but in a league where splitting carries is the philosophy of 90% of the teams, it boggles my mind that they can't replicate that in Madden.

Don't have game yet..so question regarding split carries..under coaches..is there a slider for RB1 RB2? Here is why I ask .. It seems likely they removed the slider however still "use the slider" for sim stats.. And likely that now hidden slider is pushed all to starting RB..again just spit balling here

Yes. This.

They should be watching what the NBA 2K team has been doing on precisely this front.

Just simmed a season with every offense playbook at balanced and offense scheme at balanced and defense playbook at multiple and defense scheme at hybrid.

Had 13 QBs with 4000+ yards.
Had 7 qb with 30+ td.
Interceptions are still high, every starter in the league is in double digits. Passing attempts were insane on this, a lot of guys over 700 attempts, but they are throwing short passes, most averaging 6-7 ypa.

Had 5 running backs over 300 carries. 8 1k yard rushers. 8 double digit td guys.

31 1k yard receivers, basically the #1 receiver on each team eclipsed a thousand. Only 8 double digit td receivers. Eric Ebron led all tight ends in catches with 65, so this seems to screw tight ends.

Defense, high sack total was 22 and 20. Had 16 in double digits. Had 2 defensive tackles with 7 (suh and Aaron Donald, no others above 3). No defensive back with more than 1.

Tillman led NFL in picks with 10 and was only guy in double digits, so that looks great.

Word. I'm in class till like 4, will be on later on to answer questions and stuff. This works I've simmed it like three times and haven't come across any crazy records or anything. Maybe a random player having a good or bad season but that's what it's all about right?
