Madden NFL 16 News Post



Madden
has had a good year, and I believe Madden 16 is probably the best Madden ever made. Its key improvement was the interaction between receivers and defensive backs, something this community has been harping on for years (and rightfully so).

However, even with these improvements, the common phrase still remains: "Madden passes are either caught, intercepted or defended; they are rarely just incomplete."

Be that as it may, the NFL has evolved into a pass-first league, so pass types are something Madden must get right. But beyond the pass itself, there are also steps that lead to every pass in the game.

I don't believe anything should be random, it should be based on player skill rating.

In NCAA football, a freshman QB would do things such as have "?" Over reciever's heads, and the play art would show squiggley routes. I wouldn't have a problem with Brock Osweiler having this if he's up against a good defense.

But no more than like 2 per season.
Keep in mind, that you may end up winning a game because these sorts of things happen to your opponent.

I know that's a case of "But that's not me winning the game the right way," but as they say, a game isn't won on just one single play.

It accomplishes the same thing without being hacky.
I totally understand the question marks, it shows the QB is confused. I could see people who don't play very much assuming the game is broken because there is no icon.

However, instead of the squiggles or no route shown at all, I would prefer three different routes to be shown instead of one whacky route.
