[SA1NT401]

Good to hear....But i old M10 last week to my brother for $35....I will wait till it is actually released and then see what the community thinks....Too many madden letdowns for me to really actually care anymore.

What the hell is going on in this thread? I thought I was going to get some information about the 2nd patch but, all I'm reading is a both a people arguing/typing with each other. Not you CB & Sox...

Can we get back on topic or close this thread but, IMO it's pretty useless.

Just my .02

Sorry for the hijacking. The message of the thread is: The announcement of when the second patch is coming is coming this week.

What your seeing is the culmination of frustration with this game.

Out of the box from a massive gaming company, the issues the game has SHOULD be considered unacceptable. You can love the game and still admit that. Offline flaws make the game pointless, set aside ratings flaws you can run plays over and over without the AI making adjustments. Granted, its unrealistic to do that but essentially any game you lose, you essentially beat yourself to keep it "realistic". Online is once again filled with cheese and glitch gamers, unless you are a "hardcore" Madden fan with a friends list full of buddies ready to play a game with you.

I realize some people in this thread are so rich (or atleast want to appear that way) they dont mind being frugal with $60. If you wanna throw $60 away, ill give you my Paypal email.

Paying full price for a game only to have the same issues haunt it for 3 years is frustrating, period. Old Dev Team, New Dev Team, Community Interaction....I dont care if they reincarnate Bozo the Clown and Capt. Kangroo to design M11. The programing logics in this game need to be fixed, its time to stop trying to band aid issues.

Ive already come to grips that patch #1 did more harm than good, and patch #2 will not fix anything that serious. Patch #1 had offensive lineman dropping back faster than the QB to help pass protection and aid in pocket forming, thats just silly and a bad way to fix something.

Edit. I can already see the fix for the robo QB. The CPU will now throw the ball way rather than throw as he gets hit. Naturally, they will be unaware of the situation and throw the ball away on 4th down or do it way too often.

That's....horse poop.

Help them? Be their expert? Child please.

If EA has no idea how to make a football game, then I'd rather not help them (until I get paid), and allow them to eventually fall from grace. And hopefully someone more competent steps up.

BTW, they were helped plenty last year, and this is what we got-terrible pursuit angles, terrible blocking, more Robo QB, Robo WR, 2-in-1 tackling, tons of bugs and glitches, etc. Not to mention, everything that was posted could be found in the same game that Ian claimed to have already studied. And some things were STILL implemented horribly. And the same problems still exist after 4 years. No OSer can help this team enough.

This isn't rocket science, it's football. The NFL should be ashamed to have EA Tiburon developing this game, period. But, the license didn't go to the better developers. It went to the ones with the most money. Shocker.

Just let me know when the list is released.

I think this thread is turning into this one: http://www.operationsports.com/forum...hread-2-a.html

We can all argue all day about the quality of Madden and whether or not it relies on patches more than other games, but it does nothing. It's certainly not my call, but I'm pretty sure this thread has run it's course. Besides, this will all continue in the actual announcement thread AND the subsequent release thread. Then everyone can just copy and paste the debate at that time...lol.
