Madden NFL 25 Title Update #2 Available Now (Xbox One, PS4)

Has anyone noticed that some passes don't seem to be getting undercut and picked off as often? You still get picked for bad passes and deflected which is good and it seems like finally you won't get picked off by beating a corner by a few yards like before.

And Merry Christmas everyone!

Has anyone played some more games post-patch? Is it still bad or have things straightened themselves out?

I noticed the crazy block shedding and pursuit by the CPU like some others on here, and my DB's seemed to have no clue how to cover. When throwing on the run I also kept throwing into the backs of my o-line.

This was just one game so I'm wondering if it was just an isolated instance or if I should wait for another patch. I don't want to continue my franchise as long as the game is playing like this.

Just had a FANTASTIC INT I wish I saved. Ball was tipped by 3 different players (Moore, Kuechly, Munnerlyn) and before hitting the ground, Captain slid and picked the ball off. Got up and ran 15 yards before getting tackled.

One of the best things I've seen on here!!

Reading through some of the comments...has anyone started a fresh franchise post patch?

Also, I'm curious to hear whether or not these items have been addressed:

-AI offense...avoid sacks and INTs as my team always led the league on D

-Simulated pancake stats too low, not matching in-game

-Penalties being called more in played games...I'm always lowest in NFL

-Stats like "thrown to" not being recorded

-Some stats not saving via in-game save

-Gang tackles being recorded in-game

-Too many drops for both AI and user.

I doubt anyone has checked all, but any info would help.

I deleted the game off my XBox One hard drive,
then re installed game & then got the latest patch.
After doing so when the QB runs on the field for the first time
and into the huddle, it is the correct person shown in the cut scene.

and i still had all my saves from before. the game plays good now,
hope that helps.

Just to clarify, did you experience any of the gameplay issues some of us have complained about before re-installing? And are they gone now after you re-installed?

For instance CPU block shedding, super pursuit, and bad running AI, which weren't problems before this last patch.

One thing I have noticed after the patch is the USER secondary is terrible now when it comes to pass coverage. CPU WRs be wide open all the time now. It wasn't like this before the patch. Matt Flynn threw for 234 yards against me in the 1st half. And why ? Their WRs were wide open, every down.

It is like EA watered down all aspects of the User side of things and boosted all aspects of the CPU side of things. Everything across the board is heavily slanted towards the CPU. User AI became very dumb, CPU AI became Einstein.

EA needs to fix that. Game was quite fine before the patch. Hell even the pass rush is no longer good anymore like it was before the patch.
