Madden NFL 10 Blog: The Importance of an Early Community Day (New Screenshot Included

[TJdaSportsGuy]

There's no way in hell I'm going back to read over 500 posts to find out who the knuckleheads are in this thread. If someone wants to PM me to tell me where to start looking, that's fine. I'll just remind you folks that we've already banned 4 people from the Madden Forums for breaking the rules. I'm sure more will come. Try not to let it be you.

Let's calm down in here, guys. Try to act like grown ups.

That's half of it anyways.

Since you looked at pass rush stunts you should know about this. The Titans made this work great Haynsworth on the outside and Vanderbosh at DT. Vander would stunt to the outside taking the guard and tackle with him while haynsworth loops around and it gave a lot of people trouble. What I want to know is are double stunts more affective? they never seem to be in madden because the Oline would block it everytime.

If this is the Madden we've been waiting for(for the most part), I'm interested in seeing how the gaming sites will feel about this version of Madden. Will they embrace it, or shun it for the change?

most of them want a sim game, I would love to give out all the exploits I find just to have a better game.

I think for next year community day EA should invite half hardcore sim guys and half tourny style ballers. I can't wait to get my hands on this game so I can break it down. LBRulez on sweeps did the DE ever try to contain the run and push the rb back inside?

I don't think they want to have any fighting inside Tiburon LOL. I know SIM Ballers can not stand Cheesers. I for one at times wish the cheeser I was playing was sitting next to me

This is what I am TALKING ABOUT!!!!!!!

I play APF 2K8 everyday and my favorite part of that game is the LB's and D-Line. I usually spend my Gold and Silvers on defense and I love defense more than Offense all the time. I would really love to see the front 7 of Madden 10 mean something!!!

Great work LB!!!!

That's a good thought. I'd like to see what happens as well. Last year IGN gave 09 a 9.1. If it's any lower than that for 10, we'll know what happened lol!

Kids would fight, We all want a good game and one that we will play all night instead of getting some sleep for work. Let the sim guys play in there group and Tourny players in there group that way each group will be more organized.
