When I got it, I was like wow this is an improvement, but after 2 weeks same old same old and just boring and felt like a chore to play. Terrible issues coming to light from the dated engine. Glad I got 40 bucks for my trade in

for me, the defensive player warping and suction that happens in this game is worse than any madden in recent memory. definitely worse than m25. you are forced to stop playing football and start playing madden, and the outcome of the game, as well as your enjoyment of the game, depend entirely on what EA decides to make the AI do. will the defenders in coverage warp to the ball and make plays for you? or will they stand around and stare into space as the offense makes plays on you?

I even had one play where the middle linebacker was covering a seam route by the slot receiver. the receiver has him beat by 5 yards and i throw it just after the linebacker is turned the other way not looking at the ball being thrown. go figure, just as i throw it the linebacker just warps to face the other way while also warping 3-5 yards toward the ball, leaps like michael jordan 15 feet in the air, and picks the pass off. And things like this happen all the time, usually multiple times per game. it's plays like this that make madden what it is, and will continue to make it a terrible game year in and year out.

and that is just one small issue in the game, as there are well over a dozen or more other issues i can think of that ruin this game for me.

Despite its flaws, its playing a hell of a fun game online head to head. Ive played against all types of players and been able to adjust defensively to slow them down or even shut them down. There are still some issues of course like being disconnected and not receiving win, even getting a loss one time but oh well. Not like my record is going to pay me anything so that's only a minor annoyance. I got caught by a "suction tackle", which is also a minor annoyance but it's a video game. One that's hardly programmed perfectly as we know so that's the best they could do. It's not like I'm getting robbed of plays left and right. If you are blaming suction tackling on you winning or losing, cmon.

Holding my opponents to under 13 points a game with 2.5 INTs. Using Bengals, Chiefs, Colts, Packers .

I just had the CPU kick a punt that hit the ground at the 2 yard line...and then bounced backward without going into the end zone! I couldn't believe it. I'm used to the ball just bouncing forward through the end zone every single time. I didn't see this in the patch notes, but I haven't seen it until this last patch so maybe they somehow changed how the ball behaves?

Madden 15 is Broken offline...plain & simple. Another year of "It's gonna be the BEST Madden EVER" & like a fool I bought into it, only to get shafted again. This time it should've came w/ a jar of Vaseline.

After recently just buying the game and playing a bunch of Madden Moments last night I have to say it's a fun mode that is hamstrung by the lack of individuality of the teams/players.

If the teams would have worn generic practice uniforms I honestly wouldn't have been able to tell them apart. I'm sorry, but in 2014 this is unacceptable.

I'm starting to notice that I'm losing a lot of guys to injury whenever the AI QB breaks off of their sack attempt. It's almost like they're so embarrassed that they got shook that they pretend it was cause they got injured...

Just happened again, to the same guy, after I restarted a game. This is getting old.

That's where I see most of my injuries.
