Re: Madden NFL 16 Tuning Update Arrives, Tunes Risk/Reward Factor in WR/DB Interactio

Beyond the "dice roll" for the DB/WR interactions (and improved safety play), I could swear that tackling feels better. Even at default, I am seeing far fewer "suction tackles" than before the tuner - which might explain why people think the run game is "easier". Tackles definitely feel more dynamic than they did before...and overall, the gameplay feels better. EA definitely did a good job with this one.

Re: Madden NFL 16 Tuning Update Arrives, Tunes Risk/Reward Factor in WR/DB Interactio

I'm loving the tuner. I need to test it out more but it feels balanced now. I can actually intercept the ball now and I haven't seen a double coverage deep ball work yet. I actually feel afraid to throw to elite CBs like DRC now.

Lots of rage quits as cheesers try to throw deep into 2 man under and get picked everytime.

I can't be more pleased with how the team quickly responded to the community and made the change.

Lol. I can't find this clip I took today (game dvr not cooperating with me). It would fit in perfect here. I ran 4 verts at the end of the half. I got Hankerson 1 on 1 in the middle of the field. I threw a high lob to him. The defender grabs his left arm and is called for PI, but it doesn't end there. Dude catches the ball one handed with his other hand WHILE his other hand is being grabbed. He catches it and shrugs of the pass interference and walks into the end zone. Now, a lot of people would look at that and say, 'yeah. Nothing's changed.' But, I've overall only seen a few one handed catches since tuner (a few by DBs, actually. Lol). It is what it is, and at the end of the day, I loved that play. It looked sensational and could happen. But, if I showed the clip, people would be outraged! Lol.

I've had AJ Green drop SEVERAL 1 on 1 passes in my connected franchise. I officially have NO deep game. You cannot win a lob 1 on 1 anymore. It ALWAYS gets tipped away. This is ridiculous.

Where's the thread about this being UNDERPOWERED?

People can't play with actual strategy so they complain.... You can't win anymore.

Loved game before love it more now!

Playing all madden coach mode on practice CFM with Cowboys currently 3-4 played 3 games post tuner lost away last drive of game to Giants and lost close game to Eagles also away then beat the Lions at home blew them away in 4 qtr after tight game up till then. There seems to be a real good flow to games I could not stop Murray running on me he ran hard and broke a couple of big plays which I had not seen post tuner also scored 80 yd screen on me which I had also not seen it felt right as he was best HB I had played. Giants beat me as Romo through 2 int's and fumbled also 1st one I had seen in scoring areas I also missed field goal so I could of beat Giants but things happen realistically that stopped it. Gota say when the CFM fixes are in not sure I will be able to hold down my job and play this. Ooh after thought I am still getting sacked every time I PA pass so currently do choose them plays.

Julio made 11 catches with 25+ yards in 15 games last season. Only T.Y. Hilton had more than 16 last season (17). Maybe you aiming for the wrong numbers.

This tuner update only addresses the Risk/Reward factor with DB/WR interactions, that's it. Just like the poster stated, keep this thread relative to the topic. I only say this because the Devs look at these post to gather feedback. Just trying to provide some feedback guys.
