This could go in the bugs glitch, but I haven't had this happen to me until the new patch was released. When I throw a long ball down field, even if the receiver dosen't make the catch, they show the animation cut scene where the refs try and determin if it was a good catch or not... I've also had the animation say "no good", yet the spot is at the place of the catch and I've also had the complete opposite happen where they say it was a catch and it wasn't... Again, sorry if this is a known glitch, but again, didn't have this until this patch hit...

My frustration has reached an all time high. I bought the ps3 last year figuring that i would enjoy Madden way more on next gen. I always loved the gameplay on the ps2 version. Now i'm actually missing playing madden on the ps2.

I waited for weeks for patch 2 to come out to fix the cpu qb sack/lame duck issue, as that was my biggest grip about the game. Since patch 2, i have been very disapointed. I just dont see an improvement in that area.

Some people say they do, and if you do, you have no idea how envious of you i am that you are now able to enjoy your game. I wish i could. I've tried so hard to like Madden 10. But i just cant get into it when i see lame duck after lame duck and not being able to get any sacks with my cpu controlled players.

If this one issue was fixed, i could deal with the other issues this game has for now. But this issue is literally killing any shot i have at enjoying madden for the first time since i started playing back in the Sega Genesis days.

Just curious, but what's the AWR ratings of the QBs in question? I ask because when I play with Josh Johnson, I get WAY more lame duck pop ups than if I play with Flacco. The AI in that game (McNabb) didn't have any popup throws (all of his went down into the ground).

I have a feeling it's an AWR thing.

the strength of the qb may take some stock in this i play with eagles and i noticed even if he is hit his ball go toward ground if so that's cool so the same thing should be seen with farve too.

That would be cool - would give STR a good use for QBs.

After the patch i noticed that when i would run the ball for a td and if i met a guy at the td line and a tackle animation would play and many times i would still be fighting therough the tackle and before a tackle cutscene would happen the when the cutscene of the refs decidingf if it was td plays before im tackled. its like the cutscene comes on too early. it doesnt let the tackle animation play out. It's annoying when im fighting for that yard and before i even get tackled the refs decide i didnt get the td. This is in the middle of the field btw.

I will say this years Madden has made some dramatic improvements,it obviously still needs some work.That being said since patch 2 Ive noticed Defense seems different, I notice my MLB getting more tackles than before which is good,as well as my defensive linemen getting more sacks without me controlling them which was another major complaint I had and it seems fixed!

Things seem a bit more balanced I am playing offline dynasty and I play almost all of my games so some of these weird stat glitches I havent noticed yet.As far as in game gameplay goes there are some improvements however the O-line still acts like a bunch of jerrys kids on some plays which is annoying and Im guessing at this point it is unfixable because it would have been fixed by now if it wasnt.
