And the tackling is very herky jerky, seems like they don't wrap up or follow through the tackle when IE kicks in on defense and far to many times the backs goes down to their knees like they've been hit by knock out punch during an IE tackle. I really didn't mind all the after play goofyness pre-patch IE one, at least we have way better/more gang tackling during play, maybe this will be tuned in the release version.

Turn Tackling slider UP, Facemask DOWN. The IE engine on defaults is terrible, even worse than M13 in my opinion.

It hasn't taken me long (5-6 games) to get better CPU/CPU gameplay out of this demo than anything possible in M13 even with edited rosters. That's a good sign for me.

It's still not what I'd expect out of a football game in the year 2013, but it's not nearly as bad as some of the past Madden games on this generation.

The drills are confusing the hell out of me. What qualifies a pass/fail? And Kaepernick won't even snap the ball in the ballhawk drill.

Anyway the gameplay is pretty good. More than I expected, at least.

Receivers still don't fight for/go aggressive after the ball,

Big diff. No Ray Lewis for the Ravens!

So I kept having the issue on the Skills Trainer- I kept failing because I was never given any directions. It just starts and you hike the ball.

Figured out it was because I changed the difficulty level to All-Pro.

Once I changed the difficulty level back to the default Pro when I went into Skills Trainer... I am getting instructions.

Weird.
