Madden NFL 16 News Post


A new Madden NFL 16 patch has arrived today, giving players the ability to play-a-friend in Draft Champions mode.

Quote:
You’ll start Draft Champions Play-A-Friend by drafting a new squad. From there, you’ll have the opportunity to play up to 5 games with that drafted team against members from your friends list.

After 5 games, the process will start over and you’ll need to draft another team. We also give you the ability to reset your team and re-draft once every 24-hours.

In addition to the arrival of Draft Champions Play-A-Friend, this Patch also includes some key stability fixes that improves a few known in-game crashes.

I don't disagree at all with this.

Agree 100%

Can anyone here help with this? Upon leaving an online CFM game, the game seems to be hanging on the revolving football backdrop.

Am I SOL here? Is there a way to get this to catch and save my game?

Just in case anyone is interested, I can officially confirm this decrepit video game still hasn't corrected the ridiculous scores from force wins. Yet another mechanism touted as a feature and implemented with the competency of child programmers.

This game fails to produce accurate statistics. QB's are either God-like or drunk fools. Backs average one yard a carry or holes exist the size of the Grand Canyon. The game is such that it's impossible to create a truly immersive, simulation style multiplayer environment because player skill trumps all and we can't individualize sliders or settings. Yet, the single player game is completely lacking in adequate features.


Sports games of this era should allow us to create our own universe. We should control the league as we see fit. This game absolutely infuriates me because football is a real joy of mine. I hope others are as impassioned as I am and have deep rooted resentment towards this franchise for an unacceptable product. From the little reading I do here, I gather I'm not alone.

Cut out all the mandatory glitz and glimmer. Your Quarterback video packages were cool perhaps the first night. Now I can't even skip through them. Give the sim community - give football fans a game we can enjoy. We know it's possible as it exists across every other sports genre and even within EA itself.

Long Live Madden! I've bought every copy since '99, and want to do so for the foreseeable future. I won't just give over my money for '17 though. They'll have to earn it.

Had the same problem. Wondering if this will be a bigger issue now.

I installed the patch last night. I play coach mode exclusively. My very first game, my guy on the opening kickoff ran it back for a TD! Four years into chise and never seen anything close. The tackling animations seem a tad more fluid, not as pinballish. Running backs seem to hit holes with better vision and break tackles a bit more at my specific settings.

Anyone else feel that kick returners are stuck in mud post patch? I felt that the kickoff return game was pretty good before the last patch and produced realistic stats/results. Now it seems the same returners are slower than everyone else on the field. I'm having trouble even getting back to the 20.

I was having that issue early on this release cycle. I had my game saved on an external HD, and when i moved it all back local, the problem went away.

Also, i only do solo online cfm's, my games were still being saved.

I have since moved my game saves back to the external drive, haven't had a problem in quite some time.

Pretty much exactly like I said. Before, you could adjust 1 position, like DB press vs DB press AND DL crash middle. If you tried to do a second unit adjustment the prior adjustment reverted, i.e. your DBs moved back when you crashed middle your DL, couldn't do both.

I really wish there was some rule against bumping really old threads like this. I got excited there was a new Madden update for a second, and thought maybe the ridiculous CFM force win scores would be fixed.

HA! I was really looking forward to the patch notes and to see if they have addressed issues in CFM.

You make it sound like its from Madden 10. It's a clarification of the current patch.
