Sorry bout whoopin' the Bills lol. Me and the other guy (phillie) were like um let's play our first game. We thought there was gona be like 10 ppl max or something. PS All-madden difficulty is kinda ridiculous...your guy can be standing in open field with no-one around him and if he has a catch rating below 85 it's like 50% chance that he'll even catch the damn ball. But whatever! Reset the game, or a big "I'm sorry" to whoever the Bills are!

Comeback feature? I need an opponent before I play. It's funny, because I actually have a harder time vs the cpu on all-madden than I have ever had vs a person. I guess it's probably because people don't get to jew you the way the fucking computer does.

I just played a season of franchise on all madden and it's bloody annoying in my opinion. Instead of playing football, you end up playing madden exclusively. You literally can't win using any shadow of a realistic attack (unless you have a shit hot team), you have to gimp your way to victory using cheap plays over and over again. Unless you are damn amazing, which I'm not. Any way we could adjust sliders instead?

Literally, my TE catches the ball (when it's accurate) about 30% of the time, regardless of coverage, regardless of throw accuracy, and his catch rating is 87. And the CPU seems retardedly good at breaking tackles with anyone, Frank Gore went through 6-7 guys several times lol.

If they play madden nation on all-madden, I guess it makes sense for us to, cos it's like 'genuine'. But it just feels so 'un-sim'ish if you play on that difficulty, it becomes all about the W; and making cheap ass plays over and over again.

I have hated all-madden mode on almost every single madden. it's all about screwing with the sliders

even with a stud rb, the only way to get a halfway decent ypc is by grinding away and praying for a big break (power o is really good when they blitz inside). you basically have to adjust plays before the snap all the time, part of the reason i hate the clock advance.

forget passing, esp if you have a medicore qb. slants, short outs, screens, flats and pa are the only truly usable plays until you wear them down

pass d is fucking impossible on all madden. guys break open all the time, and you can throw 6... 7 dudes at the qb and hell have 8 seconds every time.

the only thing i can do well on all madden is run d.

You guys are bad. I'd like to say more, but seriously. All-Madden is annoying as shit because of how much it Jews you (guys superman sliding to pick you off all the time, and shit like that, which I heard they took out of this game), but other than that, it's not that hard at all.

EDIT: I really shouldn't say that you are "bad" because I know people who play on pro and are pretty damn good at the game, but All-Madden isn't that hard. It takes some adjusting is all.

It's definitely not unbeatable, it's just fucking irritating to work SO hard for a drive, and then the CPU just picks up deep throws in traffic and TD's immediately back in your face.

It's just that playing on all-pro, however unrealistic that feels; is much more realistic and makes you feel more in an NFL game than a video game than all-madden.

Plus if you change some sliders you can make a halfway house between AM and AP...I wish there were like a standardized 'middle' setting that everyone came up with on the EA forums or something...

I'm 10-6 and in the playoffs with the Niners on AM in my offline, so suck on that hippie : ]3

It just doesn't have a real football feel, whereas tweaking the sliders a bit does. I know the Niners have a shitty passrush, but no team regularly gives a QB 8 seconds in the pocket so he can go 25-27 for the game.

If you head to the Operation Sports website they have sliders that people are testing for realism. The probably most popular one, which originated by some guy on YouTube, was Pro with all the CPU sliders to 100. That makes it so they aren't psychic and what-not. Pro is like normal, All-Pro is "Pro Bowlers" and All-Madden is "fantasy"

I'll try this out, sounds good.

Just tried it out in a few games, and for me with my skill level, it was perfect. It wasn't like watching a football follies highlight reel in the passing game, so that's much better, but the CPU had good play. I think if we play each other on the all pro setting we should see lots of games around 15-25 points on each side; if we play all-madden, we'll probably see 5-15, but that's only a guess and I don't know much. If the sliders were adjusted to make passing a little harder, I think all-pro could be the good base setting.

To those of you saying it doesn't feel realistic, and I'm just curious, have you ever played football? Because scoring is not easy. And if you're good at defense, the computer doesn't score easily, either. Personally, my AM games end like 17-10, and such. Pretty realistic scores. If anything AM IS realistic, and the rest are just too damn easy.

And Nero, if we're gonna do AP for CPU matches, we may as well just declare them auto-wins. Seriously, how do you lose on AP?

Finally, we should absolutely play AM vs each other.

Don't you get annoyed when your receivers drop 50% of open catches and make about 10% in coverage?

AM is not hard, but just not realistic. I don't enjoy playing a game where the defenders know every route and practically runs the route for the receiver. They know where you'll throw it and just glide there to make the play.

I have played football. I'm on my school's team right now. It's not easy to score, but you have to have esp to be able to jump routes as fast as the defenders on AM are. The receivers just drop balls too. AM is intended to make it a real challenge for you to win.

http://www.youtube.com/user/versuz2

That's the guy who's thoroughly examined Pro vs All-Pro and All-Madden. Watch his "review" videos. If you even just watch one where he's showing Pro with 100% sliders, you'll see the difference.

I'm not saying we shouldn't play on All-Pro or All-Madden, I'm just saying it's not realistic. I'm fine with anything as long as we play.

it's not about the difficulty though, it's about how stupid it looks. And how you have to resort to ridiculously unrealistic combinations of plays to win. To me it counteracts the point of playing 'sim style'. If you have to always resort to sneaky screens and running glitches etc to win, why not play on 4th down and abuse the game mechanics? It just looks ugly on all madden.

AM really not hard to win i just hate it because i'll throw a few picks no matter what i do. I just hate the fact that every game there at least 1 int. You can almost never have a clean game on AM
When the spirit is not altogether slain, great loss teaches men and women to desire greatly, both for themselves and for others.
