Madden NFL 16 Playtest on June 9 at EA Tiburon

[roadman]

Testers from OS, please play the CPU instead of 1 vs 1, or try cpu vs cpu.

See if there are any oddities in what you see. Sack issues, QB accuracy.

Thank you.

Great point. The true test of gameplay is cpu vs cpu or really Coach mode where you call plays and let computer run them vs cpu. When you throw in head to head against another person the entire game changes based on stick skills and ability to exploit in some instances.

I think this is why the online and tourney players don't gripe as much as us offline vs cpu guys...I could be wrong, but I bet their slant is human vs human and that's how the game is structured (logic, etc).

Specifically defensive holding and pass interference being called at least a few times in a game.

Also test if you can abuse the AI with a running QB. It really aggravated me to see one of my friends get away scrambling to outside almost every play, and throwing it to a WR or TE sprinting across to field, or just take off with the QB for a big game if his players are covered. The CPU should adjust to this trash style of play and shut it down if that's all he's gonna do all game without mixing it up. Edge containment needs to improve.

I am curious if you have found a way to stop or contain the mobile QB's?

Is this the first time this has happened?

I think so and I think they're pretty confident in the gameplay. I also think they're inviting people who like football gaming but haven't been huge Madden fans, based on the people I've heard who were invited.
