With all the money MUT pulled in this past year, I expect even more focus on it. It's become a game within the game. I hate it.

If they dont add the feature where peyton throws ducks and picks the whole time in playoffs theres no point. I mean u said if its in the game its in the game right?

Some of us want him to PLAY like one of the biggest icons in the history of sports, not sound like him.

-They could've fixed his drop back
-They could've added signature animations
-They could've re-tiered the playbook so he can call the plays he does irl
-They could've fixed the timing of the routes & drops
-They could've added real time route progression / head tracking
-They could've added clutch ratings

But instead, we get "Omaha! Omaha!". Sweet!

Is there anything being done in Madden 15 you like? Judging from your posts recently I would say no.

What I've realized is that the reason dropbacks are off and pockets don't form consistently is that it's probably on purpose to account for issues with route timing. It could also be vice versa. So what that says is, the core of this is broken.

(please forgive me for bringing this up, but it's true) 2K football used to have a rhythm to the passing game (something that's realistic to pro football) that just doesn't exist in Madden because of the poor timing, coupled with the problem of bizarrely inconsistent pocket breakdowns where a block should happen but a lineman gives up on the play or doesn't even try altogether.

Legacy issues galore. Symptoms of improperly working legacy code carried over. The line animations are better, but throwing new animations on top of a broken foundation is like building a new beautiful house on quicksand.

Graphics made a great leap
Presentation has improved
I've seen som inaccurate passes in the most recent vids
I've heard about better coverage, but knowing WR/DB interaction hasn't been touched, idk
I'm interested in True Step being implemented for non-ball carriers, but I'm not seeing it

Improvement is better than none. It just seems that my personal priority list is in reverse order of EA's.

- They could've made the AI better in CFM so we won't have to take control of all 32 teams for a realistic CFM.

- They could've stretched the ratings to ensure they are more spread out and the players don't all play the same.

- They could've made new tackling animations.

- They could've made the sidelines more lively.

- They could've implemented True Step for the AI

- They could've added RFA/UFA, Practice Squad and other things from Head Coach into CFM.

Yet we get Peyton yelling Omaha a bunch of times in a game. Does this mean every QB gets their special cadence or is this going to be like Kapernick where he is the only player with Tattoos?

Exactly how I feel about the state of the game.
