Madden NFL 10 Q&A Blog with the Dev Team

[Darkeus]

It has been said already but these points need to be reiterated.

The Franchise stats are off. Tackles are not being counted right, Rushing TD's suck, QB's have too many yards. Blah, blah, blah...

The flats are just plain unprotected. Is this fixed??

In fact is Franchise as a whole been addressed? This mode is just as broken as it was last year it seems. It isn't progression this year (Well, depending on opinion). Now it is signing people and draft info and things that were in LAST GEN MADDEN!!

Will DB's ever cover the WR realistically? They always cover inside on the right side of the line and they jump the route like they discovered Psi powers.. This makes passing very one-sided.

This leads to slants and middle routes being WAY TO EASY!! This is just garbage in my opinion. I mean, I am playing NCAA 10 right now because with all of their patches, it plays a better football game on the field.


The Robo QB is just horrible.. Can we please fix the QB logic in sack situations?

I appreciate the work put into this Madden and it has the potential of being the first Madden I don't trade in before football season is over. That is if the patches address the issues that the majority of the community seem to acknowledge as major problems. I haven't even gotten to all of them and it might be a bit redundant to restate them...

Will coaching settings be tweeked so that AI defenses will not blitz so much, or at the least not blitz 7 or 8 guys and leave wide open dumps offs constantly?

I mean if they did it a few times a game it would catch you off guard like in the real NFL and you might get sacked because you are expecting more time to throw. But as it is now you expect it on 75% of the plays so when you don't get it you are actually more suprised that your guys are actually covered :P

Why after I fire my coach which was Tom cable and hire a different coach which was black why wasTom cable still my coach but the picture said my new coach in cut screens.

This. This should be an easy fix hopefully, just some AI tuning.

Will franchise teams get the extra draft picks for future years that they are getting in the real NFL. I know that in a situation like today where Richard Seymour was traded to Oakland for a 2011 first round pick. If the next roster update were to reflect the move and put Seymour onto Oakland would New England get that extra 2011 1st round pick or is the person that plays that team in a franchise just out nice DE for nothing?

*crosses fingers that his question finally gets answered*

I understand the need to not comment too deeply on future additions so as not to let down all these people waiting to curse your name if it doesn't happen but will you be adding any new features for online franchise? I know you guys said that you "CAN" fix/add stuff server side so my question is "WILL YOU"?
