tha stats of players in are in CFM are wrong. they added the total tackles + assisted tackles = (new total tackles)

in espn 2014 luke kuechely had 99 solo tackles and 54 assist tackles with a total of 153 tackles

in CFM, he had 153 solo tackles and 54 assist tackles with a total of 207 tackles....

207 tackles......207....????

the qb never runs the ball...ever... always stays in the pocket. please bring back the tuck and run trait

I love that Luck can have a good game against me, or, if I call a good game, and get pressure, I can limit his influence. Additionally, some games there isn't much I can do when the QB gets hot. QB play is organic and dynamic like never before. Needs zero tuning imo.

I say they won't touch it. No way. They touted this and penalties big time...I mean huge big time.

They listened to us and they will not nerf the game. All those whining can wait till Madden 17.


Madden 16 is our game Simulation breatheren. It's not perfect, it needs more work.

But damn it plays a fine game of console football folks.

I beg to differ. Freaking Tom Brady ran in for a 5 yard TD on me last night when he found no one open in the end zone. It took him about an hour...but he made it in with no one near him.

Tom freaking Brady.


Next?

I¨m on the same side as the majority on OS. Since we are most of us at least sim guys and we are in love of the new QB differences, for first time ever i was hard time throwing on target on deep balls with Kap and i loved it! Last year i had to play with QB acc @ 4 to get those results, now it´s on default and Kap is Kap!.

One only issue so far, game play wise. CPU Running is not very good. I held AP to 1.7 avg and after 3 games i was first against the RUN. Last year would be ok, since i was the 49ers, but this year the are not that good against the run.

These were on CFM. I´m wondering if those who are seeing good CPU running game are playing CFM games or Play now? Since from what i saw they play differently.

Also as a side note, i play no switch rule (CB) and never select the play myself, i let the AI dictacte the play (so i can´t abuse in any way). So basically i´m stipping the CPU with my AI Teammates.

Does anyone else experience a so so CPU Running game on CFM?

It based on what QB you play against. I have several to scramble against me. I´m not seeing that issue at all.

Hopefully they stayed on this path (SIm Path). I can´t go back now.

I finally got around to playing a game. I messed with skills trainer just to get acclimated to controls since I haven't played much since Madden 12. Default AllPro 15/20 runoff on clock.

Playing as the Jets Preseason game # 1 at Lions. Beat them 28-21 and was the most fun I've had in a Madden game in awhile. 1st drive I go right down the field mixing run/pass and score a TD. After that Geno was being Geno(2 picks thrown. They were on one on one fly routes though. Near end of first quarter Calvin beat Revis one on for a 57 yard TD, just outjumped him(not out of the realm). So it's 7-7 after one.

2nd quarter I out scored them 7-3 so it's 14-10 at the half. Fitzpatrick was lights out going 7/8.

3rd quarter Lions get sole score, a TD(2 point conv) so it's 18-14 Lions.

4th I start out hot and get 2 TDs two straight drives to go up 28-18. Lions get a FG with about 5 min to go to cut it to 28-21. I run the clock out by just running, running, and running. I win 28-21.

Penalties...4 called in first quarter(2 on each team). False starts and offsides. None called in 2nd quarter. 2 more on me in 3rd, 1 on cpu in 3rd. None in 4th. So just false start and offsides for this game.

User run game seems fine to me. Some stuffed inside and out. Some I broke for yards both inside and out. CPU couldn't run on me.

Nice to see some pass breakups by playing the receiver. Pressuring QB seems fine to me too. I had 3 sacks. CPU didn't sack me but I call a lot of short passes and get rid of the ball quickly.
