Madden 2010 News Post

The 3-4 defense is more popular in the NFL than it has ever been. About half the teams in the NFL employ the defensive set for some if not all of their defensive snaps. And since the 3-4 is so popular, it is assumed that the Madden developers have developed this scheme so it is just as effective as it is in the real NFL.

Unfortunately, that is not really the case. While some Madden gamers can use this defense effectively, the game has simply not adapted its gameplay to fit the needs of the 3-4 on or off the field. But the lack of 3-4 friendliness in Madden can be remedied by the developers. And making Madden more 3-4 friendly would help create a more realistic experience when using the formation, and it would also benefit the general gameplay.

If the developers work to solve the problems that plague the 3-4 in the game, Madden 11 could be considered the year of the 3-4. So let us start on the field and talk about how some realism can be injected into the defense.

Honestly I just want double team blocks and the defender to just magically come off a block as a runner comes by gone,

madden's blocking is terrible so the 3-4 wasn't what it should be. the OLB's had way too tough a time getting a solid rush. remember that youtube video where all the midgets and receivers were put in at the tackle spot but doinated the line? yeah. fix this please.

Sure. When did you play Backbreaker? How could you possibly state this when this game is not even out yet?

Good news...EA has put double team blocking in Madden 11. I don't think it's gonna benefit the 3-4 defense. They have o-linemen blocking the front line then advance to the 2nd level (Linebackers). We all know how bad the d-line controls are, they keep the defenders sucked in (held). Hope they change this too.
