Madden NFL 12 Demo Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360, PS3)

[Dazraz]

Having played the demo I can't help but be excited for this years game. The revamped presentation is really welcome to delivering a broadcast feel to the game. Couple that with some stunning visuals, improved gameplay & some much needed work on the Franchise Mode & Madden 12 becomes a must buy game this year.

I agree i have no problem with the CPU scrambling on me.....Finally!

As for the Human QB like i said if you really wanted to fix it or make it tougher for you to run there are options you can tweak in the game

you can agree or disagree but the fact remains there are options in the game that allows you to modify CPU and Human QB scrambling ability either by ratings, sliders or tendencies.

Anyone complaining about it simply just refuse to take the time to balance out the issue and therefor complaining about it is easier for them

Well after finally getting the game here are my feelings.

Agree running with Qb is too easy. But then again, the game will play very nice when sliders adjusted, need full game to figure those out.

Presentation is very nice and liking already the DPP.

Fumbles on all madden are ridiculous, so thats first slider treatment.

I've lost every game so far, but i aint that great on madden plus its just getting used to the game. Managed to get down to 14-7 loss after losing over 35 points first few games.

If its true this is earlier build then with the improvements to franchise mode and a few tweaks on the old silders i think we are on to a winner.

If the issue is solely with running QB's, you essentially screw up everything else by tweaking sliders globally. I want QB's that actually scramble to have the ability to beat me with timely scrambles. What I don't want is to take control of the linebacker that is 5 yards away and actually lose all control of him as he pulls me away from the scrambling QB. It's weird but, it happens. Also, QB's break more tackles than RB's. For whatever reason their trucking and break tackle ratings seem to be on a different scale than anyone else that carries the ball. I mean Cutler is breaking clean tackle attempts by Clay Matthews. Essentially they need to take demo Aaron Rodgers and make his running ability Mike Vick's and then scale down from there. On my end I want to be able to scramble when it's appropriate but, the defense has to react better to scrambles. If I screw with reaction time too much it affects my overall running game.

and again my point is there are OPTIONS in the game you can adjust

if you choose to not utilize those options for fear of breaking something else that is your decision

but there are options either by ratings, sliders or DPP you can adjust for human or CPU players to get a better balance of gameplay in this apsect (Human/CPU Running QB's)

i just think it's irrelevant complaining about scrambling QB's in the DEMO especially if you haven't even bothered to find a solution one way or the other.

It's a matter of preference really. This year Madden is the more difficult and challenging game to play. I prefer the game be difficult more than anything else.

I don't play on All Madden. I don't enjoy uber-cheating CPUs.

how do you guys feel about how the defensive backs cover the deep ball. I have seen a bunch of times a defensive back just standing there and letting the wr make a catch and not playing the ball at all
