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.

The demo has sliders so you can use them!

It really sucks for those of us who play online franchise. It's the ONLY mode in the entire game that does not have sliders. It royally sucks.

From the demo, Madden actually feels like a fresh new game and not stale at all such as NCAA still has that stale feeling for years. As everyone has said the presentation has a realistic broadcast feel to it, graphics are superb, player models are realistic looking, and the grass is very realistic as well.

Also, I feel like the animations are MUCH smoother and the players do not move as much like robots like in NCAA. Tackling is a HUGE upgrade, although, as someone has said it feels like every tackle is a huge hit instead of normal wrap up tackle.

Passing is done way better than in NCAA, I actually feel like there is route based passing implemented. For example, I was faced with a heavy rush and I threw an out route to D. Driver before he made the cut. The ball went to where he was suppose to go out towards the sideline instead of where he was at that moment (still running vertical). He made a diving catch towards the sideline and it looked AWESOME. It was a great feeling. However with that said, DBs still have eyes in the back of their head. The trajectory of the ball isn't realistic but still WAY better than NCAA.

Running isn't much different than in NCAA, but that isn't a bad thing I don't think.

All in all, this is a definite day one buy for me. The demo felt more polished than the released version of NCAA. I can't wait!

How do you know whether or not someone has looked for a solution?

Not a complaint just an observation. I never complained. Many others have brought up the issue. I've noticed it as well.

There are many other issues that people have posted that are easily fixed with the available sliders. Obviously in the demo you can't change individual player ratings or attributes.

I know in the NCAA patch they are addressing the way defenders react once the QBs break the line of scrimmage.

I love the fact that QBs scramble and that it is possible to scramble. The Qbs should not be so fast though. And the defense should react better to them.

Okay...maybe I'm slow but I had no idea that changing the difficulty changes the player and computer skill. I've been playing on all madden getting pounded because my players had no clue how to shed blocks, tackle, cover, slow to react you name it. So I went in the settings to see wtf was up and I see that all of my skill levels are set to 25 while CPU. O_o

Duhhhh

Switched the sliders a little bit and put the game speed on slow and now I'm having fun. Aaron rodgers is tolerable and the game is 100x more fun than it already was.
