Madden NFL 15 Continues A Long Tradition of No Penalties

I have seen holding called in Xbox1 Madden 15. I have seen it versus the cpu and in a user v user cfm game. It's very rare but, I have seen it.

Yeah, Charter, you are correct, I should have been a bit more clearer.

The holding calls are very rare compared to past Maddens, starting with 25.

This (and lack of kick blocks) continues to be a massive hole in the game. How many PI's do you see in a real NFL game every Sunday? In 2013, there were 7.72 per game.

In years of Madden, i have seen perhaps 3. It really is like playing a basketball game without fouls. Penalties, like them or not, are a huge part of the game and the Madden just completely ignores them.

I'd really love to see the awareness rating become more useful by somehow being tied to penalties. Maybe we could get some sorta bonehead trait for penalties and offseason problems?

EA doesn't care about penalties. The majority of their audience doesn't want them.,.

So pathetic.

I totally agree that it's pathetic. I really don't even care if EA cares about penalties though. I just want them to either quit calling their game a football sim or fix penalties. Can you image a MLB game coming out as a "sim" but, there were no foul balls? Or a SIM NBA game with no fouls? Makes no sense. Even NBA live has a pretty good amount of fouls. It's crazy
