This is one of those issues, yes. They are quite generic as of right now, so using them in game will not yield some of the desired results.

so basically dont take every positional rating as the gospel truth until mid season when the overalls are corrected? thanks!

Exactly. Thanks EA for changing the darn formulas!

All of the ratings currently on your site will all work for Madden 11, right...? I'm most likely skipping Madden 12, so I'm focusing on enhancing M11 with the ratings you've provided. I'd like a little bit of clarity so I don't spend weeks manually putting all of your ratings into M11 only to have them not work correctly.

Sorry but the ratings will not match the OVRs for M11 because EA changed the formulas for calculating the OVR ratings.

sorry if you already answered this but do overalls really matter for gameplay's sake as long as all of the attribute ratings are in? or are you just trying to get a nice bell curve for the player 'overalls'?

The OVR rating is quite necessary because some of the other attributes are affected by it, and vice vs. obviously. So no, it will not work until it is properly calculated. And for that, I need the game in hand this year.

Any possible way for me to access ratings that are specifically for Madden 11...?
