Update.

Played several user v user games in my online franchise and the game is playing good.

The patch didn't ruin anything

Good write up Charter, I'm not experiencing the things you are, but you have a lot more games in than I do.

And I think my history speaks for itself. I'm not overly critical or a complainer. I just can't ignore what I see.

I still think the game plays solid it just has a two generic teams playing each other feel to it now.

Like the Even teams is always turned on.

I'm not happy with most changes they have made. I do like how the force players are playing outside zone better but, honestly I didn't have trouble stopping those before. Kicking is just ridiculously easy for me now. My last online franchise head to head game me and my opponent where nailing 58 yarders easy. I wasn't even close one time according to the accuracy meter it still was dead on. I'm using the same kicker with the same ratings that I did pre patch. - I loved the challenge before. I actually had a kicking advantage over most opponents because I practiced. I still had to really concentrate though. I also knew if it was over 50 I would struggle so field position was important. Now it's just mindless. -OL DL doesn't account for ratings anymore. I don't know what happened but, your OL won't matter anymore. 60 overalls will basically block the same as 90 overalls. Just draft a bad team on purpose in a fantasy draft franchise or play draft champions without drafting OL DL. Won't matter much if at all. I've done both. -QB's are about the same now. My Rams QB Kennom was tough to use pre patch. I was around 57%. Now he can't miss. Same ratings. I purposely didn't draft a QB in draft champions and used 70 over Conner Cook. Bad OL and all. I'm 3-0 so far and he's thrown for about 75-80% so far. He'll miss occasionally but, not much. -Finally, ratings matter less than ever now IMO. I shouldn't be able to draft the draft champions team I drafted and win how I'm winning. I'm passing almost every time and using dime and nickel every time just to test. My opponent has had elite DL that can't get pressure and they can't run against dime and nickel. So I give the new patch a thumbs down. I don't support the direction they are going.

Charter, to be honest, I've been going insane trying to get the qb to throw the ball downfield, that I didn't even notice this kind of stuff. Player ratings that is.

Roadman, I respect and value your opinion as I do charters. If I'm not mistaken, you play on all-pro. I'm assuming charter is still playing all madden, which is kinda getting a thumbs down around here post patch. Seems like that to me lately.

The half that I have played this morning, Bortles went deep on me to Robinson.

Actually charter, are you playing all madden still. Or did you see this on all pro as well?

Our online franchise is All Madden.

The rank games and draft champions are All Pro of course.

I'm seeing the same thing on All Madden it's just globally more difficult
