The Biggest Madden Patch Ever Arrives Today, New Mode and Various Bug Fixes

[truballer845]

Have the patches improved the game. I had opportunity to get madden 16 on black Friday instead i only purchased NBA 2k16 at BestBuy. I hope i dont regret not picking up madden on Black Friday, which was 29 dollars at BestBuy. The football fan in me wants to get madden but the other side of me that has been disappointed with madden the last few years told me not to get madden. I hope i wont regret it for passing madden 16 at 29 dollars.. Is this game worth purchasing witt the recent patches? How would you rate the gameplay with effects of the patches?

Although you'll still run into cheese online, I think the gameplay is much improved (especially using A&S sliders). I too have been disappointed in madden for years now and anytime I have bought the game I have regretted it and turned it in soon after. But this year I am really enjoying the game and especially the gameplay. If you can still find it for $30 I would take the chance on it.

If you are a franchise head you are still going to have to use some workarounds if you want a realistic franchise experience. But so far, to me, it has been worth it

Has anyone in existing online cfms noticed any increased benefits of the pass rush since the patch dropped?

Wondering if it's another thing that requires a restart to see because I'm still seeing QBs with all day in the pocket and AI pass rushers just patty caking in my games and other league games via twitch. Really infuriating. Wish they hadn't nerf bombed the trenches, last year was good just needed small tweaks

I'm trying to address this by lowering the holding slider...

Post Patch, the pass rush doesn't shed blocks as efficiently...

The pockets and pursuit angles LOOK better, but play differently...

Ready for the dumbest question ever?

How do I know if I've downloaded the patch and tuning updates?

I just got the game on PS4 and I have nothing under my share my files screen. Also, I've had no screens popping up at starup about downloads, except for a roster update.

Thanks everyone.

Hi bro,
You should switch your ps4 on, go to "library ", you find madden 16, you click the right small button on your joystick, then you will have several options to select. If I'm not wrong, you have to select update list or something similar, then you will see a blue page with written your game's version and the main patch change list.
If you have problems, you drop me a private message and I'll try to help you.

I just got back to playing this game over the weekend after more than a month without playing. One thing I noticed is that Robo-QB has been tuned down a lot with the increase in pass rush. I see more and more QBs throw the ball away now or take the sack when it's obvious that they can't escape the pressure. This is on all-star difficulty with default sliders and official rosters.

I've explored a bit, but found mostly complaints in regards to these two questions:

Auto subs are still not working in CFM?

Linemen don't get hurt in played games still?

Thank you!
