I guess I misunderstood your complaint with match coverage. Honestly, no coverage in the game plays correctly according to their alignment and pre snap rules as it is. As cool as it would be to have some of the highly nuanced defenses of the NFL in the game, I don’t think the AI can handle making them operate properly if they cant get the vanilla defenses to work as it is. Plus most madden players would not understand the advanced concepts you are referring to. I think your best bet to getting some of these defensive concepts in the game would be on PC with the mod community, I just don’t see madden adding them into the base game any time soon when they already struggle to get the AI to play the most simple coverages correctly. Scheme wise football is an incredibly deep sport with way more nuance than sports like soccer or basketball so tuning AI logic in a football game is a uniquely difficult challenge even for developers with a deep understanding of NFL scheme
I completely disagree. And it's absolutely possible to implement the nuances of pattern matching PROPERLY in this game.
Devs would have to do the research and work to make sure it works correctly and yes...give us the MANY variations stayed above. And it's on the players to learn how and when to use them...by learning the game of football.
It's 2024, the technology is there to make it work. Don't give the devs and excuse.
At this point match coverage is so scaled back and broken. The only explanation is laziness right now.
There are COUNTLESS YouTube videos of lengthy seminars on match coverage. I've already submitted many.
The info is out there. Just needs to be implemented correctly is all.
