Back for it's 4th straight release is the camera cutting to a celebrating HOLDER after FG's and some extra points in online head to head games. It seems to consider this a completion from the QB to the kicker as though it was a pass for a score. Just lazy.

I don't know about everyone else, but screens are almost "too money" for me. I almost always get at least 5 yards and have broken 30, 40 yard screens and a couple of 3rd and long (10-19 yds) from HB screens. I'm using the Browns with Tate at HB.

I'm at work so couldn't enter it but that was very nice!!! If anyone on the forums wants to be generous and isn't going to use there gamestop code for the ultimate team stuff please private message me with a picture of your code. I would appreciate it more than you know!!!
LMAO!!! I just remembered why I stay away from the impressions thread after the game is released!! I love the game myself, but if I read this thread long enough I'm afraid it would kill the game for me. I also try to stay away from the bugs & glitches thread, so that unless I find the bug myself I'm not looking for any of them. ENJOY THE GAME!!!

Im definitely having fun with M15 so far. The visuals are finally getting there on par with the "other" basketball game. I really was expecting a lot more with living worlds this year, but seeing as there was no hype leading to release I knew there wasn't going to be any significant improvements.
The audio while sounding the same(same sounds) sounds much better, if that makes sense. The NFL films camera shots are beautiful at times.
Im really having fun with the defensive camera, and the camera switching on-the-fly keeps gameplay from getting stale. This is an underrated feature. We still need to be able to customize camera angles though.
Ive seen some improvements in tackling but at the same time, far to often when players collide they pinball off each other 3-4 yards away, that's too far. It needs to be tightened up.
By far M15 isn't a perfect game. It is the best game of football ive played in YEARS though, its getting there. There NEEDS to be more penalties added to the game (defensive holding) as well as the ones we do have need to work properly. So far for M15, penalties are non existent.
The intelligence of the CPU QB's also needs to be higher while at the same time the accuracy of there throws is still too high. I do feel a diffence between top notch QB's and scrubs but even the elite passers aren't as accurate as M15 makes them out to be. There is also a nice contrast of ability with different RBs. A power guy FEELS like a power back. A shifty RB definitely FEELS way different than a guy like Stephen Jackson or LeGarret Blount, which is nice. EA needs to keep running with that and give each player signature moves and traits.
The game definitely still has its issues but you can see there is some polish to some areas, now its time to build build build on this base. NO MORE subtraction of features, its time to add and then add some more. Like someone above said the "player of the game" interview is gone this year for some reason. WHY? This is something that EA has to stop doing yesterday. Stop removing features that don't need to be removed. This has been a huge part of their frustrated fan base for quite some time, the CONSTANT removal of things for seemingly no reason at all. Its the classic 1 step forward 2 steps back. Like Ditka says "STOP IT!!"
So far ill give M15 an 8 out of 10, its getting there just not as fast as all of us would like.

Loving this game!! Using charters sliders with a few of my own tweeks and having fun playing madden again!! looks beautiful, plays beautiful!!
Hey guys,
for those of you on the fence of which system to get this game for, don't worry about it... I've played both versions and own both systems.
I can honesty say that this game has put the xb1 back on par with ps4 in terms of graphics. I didn't notice much of a difference either of these titles. I played on both of my TV sets and even with my beefier TV , i still didn't notice much of a difference at all.
now that cant be said about every other game out that's multi-plat . Which has looked far superior to the xb1 counter parts when compared to the ps4.
Those who say they notice a difference verisons of madden's must have a 4k television or great pair of eyes.. maybe a few more jaggies on the xb1 version but both look incredible..
i think the feel is better on the xbox 1 controller too, but that's just me, i like how responsive it is..

Is stumble recovery still in the game ? Because I am getting tripped a lot and can't recover from it. And I must say pursuit is over powered in this game. I tried 5 screen plays with the Saints, got sacked 5 times because the pursuit of the defensive linemen were just insane on how fast they caught up to Drew Brees back peddling. Counter plays again once again lead to tackles for a loss.
EA needs to tone down pursuit. Makes no sense on any outside run you get met in the backfield majority of the time. Also makes no sense how a WR can catch a wide open pass and you go to turn up field and a defender comes from the far side of the field and chase you down within 5 yards.
Think I will lower the tackle slider because out of all the games I played, I look at stats and have 0 broken tackles. IMO EA made conservative tackle and hard hit tackle too even. Don't seem to matter which one you use, it is an automatic tackle. I shouldn't be seeing big backs brought down with 1 hit all the damn time. I shouldn't be seeing shifty backs brought down with ease either.
29 rushes with Ingram for 95 yards against the Bengals ?
So far I played against Charles, AP, Forte, Lacy, etc. and NONE of them have rushed for over 100 yards against me. I will lower the tackle slider to see if I can get some broken tackles and get this CPU running game going. Because as it stands now, the CPU can't run the ball to save their lives.

Suction seems to be back, O lineman are missing blocks, and backs aren't responding to cut back lanes....PS3
Can anyone explain to me why the Lions has Bush returning punts and kickoffs? Ross the punt/Kick returner is no where to be found.
@gotmadskillzson
Could you tell me which team did you play againts?Because i want to try it myself. So far I've played more than 10 games and was able to complete screen pass plays succesfuly at least 2 times in almost every game.
I've seen many broken tackles at default sliders all-pro. The last game I played, Steven Jackson broke 3 tackles in a row for 15 yards.
I assume you just played againts those players you mention only one time. I know you wouldn't expect those players to run for 100+ yards every game.
Actually I played againts Chiefs 2 times.First game Charles went for 60 yards i think, the second game 124 yards.
It feels like you guys are playing a whole different game.lol.
Please don't ask devs to make the game easy. Instead work on your skills or lower some sliders. Madden has always been easy and cheesy. Finally we've got a challenging realistic game. I don't want to lose it

What does consistency do in relation to xp? I get that it makes your players more consistent lol. On screen it says increase xp earned through game prep but by how much? Thought that was development? Which is more important then? Too rook to create a topic...

I like how the defense has been improved upon this year, but crossing routes and a good run game is still really hard to stop. I like how you can pressure the QB now, feels more realistic than having 10 secs to throw.
I really wish they would patch Online Teamplay back in, though.

Have had great RB results from CPU. All-Pro and All Madden
Have thier run block at 100 on All Pro and User tackling at 35 I believe.
Still working on All MAddens et as I royally screwed up when I was testing (Game defaulted to All Pro and didn't know it lol )
Anyways I know you can get the CPU run game going. That's always the furst thing I make sure is good to go, or as best as it can be.

I just finished my first preseason, and it's a little disappointing seeing that Devin Hester, Stedman Bailey, and Bishop Sankey (a 2014 2nd round pick) have been cut by their teams
Defensive game play is slightly improved though corner and crossing patterns are still difficult to defend. Justin Smith and Michael Bennett are way too thin in the game, would be nice if we had the ability customize player sizes and skin color cuz Doug Martin is way too dark.
This is new Gen, dunno why we aren't able to get color accessories that goes with colored jerseys persay white sleeves with white jerseys, black sleeves with dark jerseys like NBA 2k. Many players are now wearing the RG3 look with one sleeve yet we don't get that option while NCAA of last gen did, as well as knee braces, lip guards, and certain neck braces are still missing. I'm sure saving size is not the issue knowing this is new gen. I know it's nit picking but if i'm paying 60 dollars for a game, I'd like to get what i'm paying for with numerous options to customize my own rosters.
So far the game itself is going in the right direction but would be nice had 2k gotten the chance to make a game.
