You know that point where they are pedaling and pedaling forever. Throw the ball away already! When you have a nose tackle getting sacks and no one is open for like 8 seconds. Give it up already! At least fix that.

I played a huge amount of Madden over the weekend - went from Week six of my first season right up to pre-season one of season two.

I think the game is playing well on All Pro. I'm not finding field goals as easy as some of you - they're missable if you lose concentration or make a mistake, which makes sense to me. The AI is missing them too.

I'm seeing plenty of inaccurate QB throws. Which is nice. I saw the QB run an option play the other day (Cam I think) which looked great and fooled me completely. I even saw a DPI call yesterday which I've never seen on default penalty sliders.

The commentary sucks.

One thing I'm seeing a lot of though and I'm not seeing mentioned elsewhere is facemask penalties. Since the weekend I've averaged probably four a game, both sides of the ball. Is this normal?

I had been playing AM with some slight slider modifications (dropped accuracy for hum and cpu to 40 and bumped pass coverage and reaction to 52 for hum and lowered int). I was getting pretty good games although I still completed passes at a really high rate.It was not uncommon for me to complete 80% or more of my passes. The cpu offense was a decent challenge.

After reading this thread I went back to AP default. It's odd but there isn't really too big of difference between difficulty levels. The game definitely plays different though. I complete passes at a lesser percentage on AP. Coverage seems tighter, more knock outs, etc.

My problem with AP is so far in 2 games (small sample size) the cpu plays offense the same regardless of team. I played the Bills (me) vs the Eagles and I picked off Wentz 3 times,sacked him 4 times. I got out to a big lead and played conservative down the stretch. They made the final score respectable 30-20. Shady ran for 210 yards. I completed 68% to the Eagles 63%.

Here's the problem though. I played the next game as the Browns (me) vs the Patriots. I got out to a big lead (Pryor deep ball, Pryor long Wildcat run), picked off Brady 3 times in the first half. Patriots offense just not dynamic enough. Essentially running on first and second down and passing on 3rd and long.

I deleted the tuner, and don't have that big of a problem. Not like it was prepatch. For me anyway. I was getting like 6-8 sacks.

does the game play better with tuner or without tuner?

Ehh that pretty similar to user play. Good qbs throw the ball away, bad ones hold onto it.

Actually I was on all madden, and came back to all-pro. I then deleted tuner. I can't compare how all-pro plays with or out. Not positive it does anything. But listening to everyone talk about cpu accuracy at 0. And still accurate. At 5, I still miss passes. But I believe bcruise deleted it and said the accuracy was still there. I also deleted my profile. Maybe that was it. Idk. Sorry I can't give a straight answer. Just my experience

Any word on the punt issue from ea? Do these guys realize the game is completely unplayable when every punt goes
20 yards of the wind is over 10 mph. This is a complete joke. They've known about this for weeks and weeks. They don't care but I'll never buy another madden again
