Madden NFL 10 FAQ Videos are Recorded... Awaiting Approval

[TreyIM2]

As much as I want to speak on the whiners and complainers, I will refrain....

Ian - Sounds good. The real goods sounds like it's going to be in the 2nd patch. I hope you guys touched on some of the things in my breakdown of the game that I blogged for you and put on the feedback site. I have a few more things that I never posted but I really dig the game so much that it doesn't matter, right now. I will update my list in the next day just in case those things were not already mentioned.

Not to gush on ya, Ian, but I like what you're doing. People can hate on anyone about any little thing cuz it seems easier to do, in this society, but as a man to another man, you are really bringing much to the Madden table and breaking your neck for the best of everyone. I appreciate you for that and hope you can continue to turn this franchise around. Best wishes. Peeeaaazzzz...

Well, it was directed more towards the minority than the majority. I agree with you, these are legitimate concerns and people have a right to their opinion. I'm right there with everyone in wanting sacks, stats, and flats fixed. But there are quite a few who have been very disrespectful in mouthing off every time they see Ian anywhere near the boards. I mean, it's one thing to let him know what concerns you have with the game. It's another thing entirely to belong to the segment that rips him for going on vacation and acts like he should spend every waking hour serving our needs.

I interpreted the comment I was replying to as belonging to the latter category (though, again, the vast majority of comments, esp. in this thread, have been cordial). I apologize if that was not the case. Maybe the whining in other threads has made me assume the worst of people.

Anyway, I'll apologize and move on. This particular conversation isn't really going anywhere any of us wants to be.

THEEEENNNN i have to wait about a month or 2 for the game to be where it should have been when it was released & by this time NBA2k has been released and since i never got a chance to dive into Madden because of things that should not have to be patched, i get consumed by my current hoops game (NBA2K) WE NEVER GET A FULL YEAR OF A FINISHED PRODUCT.

Man, I echo everything you just said. 2K10 is around the corner and if the game doesn't get better through the patches, it's going back to gamestop. It just sucks cause I love football so much. One thing I just cant get with is the running animations or jogging animations I should say. It can't be fixed in a patch and I just can't ignore it. I hope massive work goes into locomotion for Madden '11.

If the issue with players disappearing in the second half of games isn't addressed, the game is pretty unplayable.

In regular season game one of a franchise key starters disappeared - Forte, Hester, Harris and Cutler. It's pretty pointless to play franchise games when starters disappear for no reason.

So what's the time frame for patch 2?

October somethime?

This sounds great, thanks Ian. But when you look at flats, be sure to look at drags, slants, and ins as well, because the zone depth problem pervades hook zones and deep zones in addition to flat zones.

Glad to hear the news. I already have a franchise started but I may start a new one with the second patch. I'm just excited the stuff is going be fixed. Nice job.

You're right they shouldn't even bother. Great attitude.



It won't be halfway through the season first of all and second of all if you prefer those hoops games you wouldn't be playing Madden anymore anyway, so who cares?
