Madden NFL 11 Q&A (PS3) - Steve_OS

08:06 PM - August 2, 2010 by Steve_OS

I'll take questions tonight, but after that, I send it off to the reviewer. He can then decide to do the same, or just wait for the review.

With that out of the way, what questions do you have? I haven't gone too deep into franchise, but we all already know, not much has changed there.

*Closed it up at midnight, but there are quite a few questions answered.

Are the graphics a lot better than in the demo? Also, do elite players stand out more in games? Kind of worries me that you say Dline gets most of the pressure. Dallas is a 3-4, so why aren't the LB's getting all the pressure? Do uniforms get dirty in snow and rain?

Graphics seem to be the same to me, just a lot smoother.

Pressure from the LB or DL isn't really an issue, getting sacks is. Because just when you think you have one registered, the AI QB has released it.

Hey steve i got 2 questions for you

Is There Robo Qb this year?

Is the deep ball improved this year?,i couldnt complete a deep ball to save my life in madden 10

# 44 WilsonFisk @ 08/02/10 09:28 PM

Steve,

Is the risk/reward on press man coverage any different in the retail version? In the demo if the defense is in press coverage almost every time one of the WRs would break free and give me and easy 15-20 yard completion.

I like the idea of press being a huge risk...but it was just TOO easy to beat in the demo.

# 45 Spin @ 08/02/10 09:30 PM

Steve, can you supersim a game while you in game and post the results of the score, qb stats and team stats? Maybe the Skins vs Eagles and Saints vs Lions?

Thanks

# 46 alifeincomplete @ 08/02/10 09:30 PM

Steve - first off, thank you so much for taking the time to do this. It's very generous of you!

I have just one question: do they pronounce Brett Favre's name in the game? Because he was added after the release into last year's game, it got very annoying that no one said his name.

Are replays and stats frequent on the PS3 version? They were few and far between in the PS3 demo, yet the 360 demo seemed to have replays almost every other play.

# 48 stopper654 @ 08/02/10 09:36 PM

Hey Steve,

I know you're a cowboys fan but have you played against the mighty Eagles yet?? And was any pressure coming fom the D- line on all madden against them???

Well, I haven't touched the sliders, but the QB does seem to let the ball go as soon as I am ready to lay the smack down on him. I mean split second stuff here. Not seeing the odd back foot lobs or opposite field wings to the complete other side of the field tho.

Oh yes, deep ball is NICE. I've had some nice ones in the back of the endzone.

Well that truly sucks. But thanks for looking bro.

Not a gameplay question but with you being a Cowboys fan, I will give it a go.

Could you tell us the 'Potential' grades for Dez, Sean Lee, Akwasi and Jamar Wall?

Thanks mate.

# 52 countryboy @ 08/02/10 09:39 PM

one more question Steve.

How is fatigue? Are you seeing the cpu sub out players as needed as well as your team?

Ok...I lied that was two more questions, and I'm adding a 3rd...

Do two back system teams use two backs, and not based on fatigue or 3rd down backs?

Thanks again Steve.

Seeing the same on occasion w/ retail. Not like I saw in the demo. If they bring some heat, you just don't have the time to get him the ball (unless he beats that press) If you do get the time, however, I can see it happening, but then again, that is the case in real life. Press w/ a blitz, you are gonna die, if the QB gets the time.

But I do see what you mean.

# 54 K_GUN @ 08/02/10 09:41 PM

gameplan/gameflow question

1 player games/ franchise mode

can you create 2 gameplans (save them) and then assign one to the USER and the other to the CPU?

# 55 Neg Maron @ 08/02/10 09:46 PM

Hey Steve, I am new to the forums but I have a burning question...what's the default setting for online games/online franchise games?? Such as gameflow, gamespeed, Auto sprint, auto strafe???

Would greatly appreciate it if you can give me a heads up.

Woah, just supersimmed a 15 min. qtr game and it was a high scoring game. What qtr settings you looking at?

# 57 truballer845 @ 08/02/10 09:51 PM

thks for the info steve good looking out,so for a person like me that didnt like madden 10 that much, do u see this as a better game?

# 58 ZoneKIller @ 08/02/10 09:53 PM

Hey Steve thanks alot for answering q's.Stinks we had to wait this long.

.1 Question .Could you possibly look into all the menus of Franchise to see if we can change teams mid-Franchise? Someonesaid in another thread that we couldnt.

.2 Can we edit body types like in NCAA 11?

Thanks alot Steve!

# 59 cheapargentina @ 08/02/10 09:57 PM

have any changes been made to show difference in a 4-3 and 3-4
do they have separate depth charts?
in franchise mode who are the sack leaders on 3-4 teams OLB or DE?
i know franchise mode hasn't been changed much, but do teams at least have the logic to not draft or sign players that do not fit their systems? such as the colts signing merriman and putting him at OLB instead or DE, or the cowboys drafting a 260 pound pass rushing DE and leaving him at DE instead of moving him to OLB.
do big NT tackles like vince wilfork and jamal williams command the double team or is the 3-4 still pretty much broken?

if u can answer any of these questions i would really appreciate it
thanks
