You're not seeing between 2 and 4 pass attempts down the field? At all?

Different than my experience, and a little bit counter to what you said earlier.

Attempts, but not much success. Lots of drops, lots of hits that cause drops. Lots of drops that are laughable and shouldn't/wouldn't happen in real life, but that's another story.

"Counter" how exactly?

Again the average is less than 30% on pass attempts in that range. Not sure how much success you're expecting.

Counter in the fact you said it wasn't gone but almost gone, yet if you look at league averages it's like 2 or 3 attempts a game. So what you're saying is you're seeing less than that?

As far as the drops on the deep balls? We must be playing different games.

I think I've been pretty clear that I'm seeing much less than that rate...

I said almost impossible; I originally said that and never changed from it, so it wasn't a counter to anything I previously said.

Nope. It's just that user experiences vary based on a number of factors. That's the way it always is.

How much less? What are you using as your metric?

I'm sure he was talkin bout success rates not attempts.

On the strength, the WR's do drop a lot of passes they shouldn't in this game. They prolly do it to try to keep completion percentages down. Dudes drop balls in this game that in real life certain WR's would pretty much never drop.

He wasn't. But as I also stated the success rate IRL is less than 30%. I haven't kept track, but what I am seeing seems in the realm of that reality.

Edit: With the exception of Peyton Manning. His success rate on throws 20+ is ridiculous IRL.

I gotta say this because it's still my BIGGEST pet peeve in Madden. WR catching animations!!!!!!! PLEASE, unless it's a jump ball, RECEIVERS DONT JUMP EVERY TIME for the ball!!!! Pisses me off I get a great catch that gets knocked away because my guy jumps 5 miles up for absolutely no reason And it allows the defender just enough time to run over and make a play. CHEST CATCHES, BASKET CATCHES, and stuff like that are normal.. come on EA!
