Community ManagerDoes this still happen if you change your sliders back to default or shift them in the other direction closer to zero? Curious if that has any effect for you both. It can be tough to catch passes if they're lobbed up in the air in traffic, but you mentioned it doesn't matter what type of pass you throw.
Does it do this if you go in practice mode and time your passes differently?
@EA_Blueberry Yes it happens no matter difficultly level, gameplay sliders, receiver ability, or type of pass. Like I've said, at least 4 of 5 times I throw a pass, my receiver jumps for it. If I just run him to the ball he jumps, it i hit Triangle for Agressive Catch he jumps. Now I do understand, that jumping in coverage, you're not going to catch every ball, and I get that, but no matter who my receiver, what his stats and abilities, whether or not his X Factor ability is active, every single time my receiver jumps and a defender makes contact, the ball comes out. So unless a DB blows coverage, it is completely impossible to catch a deep pass. That's the whole point of a tall receiver, good jumping stats, good catch, good catch in traffic, so that you can make those kinds of plays sometimes. It's hard when it's completely impossible to make a catch when my receiver is contacted. Not everytime, but fairly often when he doesn't jump, if there is contact they'll drop the ball. Again, no receiver will catch every pass, but the stars should catch more than they drop. And also having that problem a lot of the time where when I'll throw a deep ball, I can't control my receiver. He just keeps running, and sometimes straight, sometimes veers off well away from where the ball is going to end up. That's good if you like throwing interceptions, but I personally try not to. I know that everyone is working towards Madden 21, and I get it...I would like to be able to play this until 21 comes out, but it's hard when most of my passing game is nullified. There also didn't seem to be an issue rolling out the 1st round draft picks for MUT. No chance us franchise players could get an after draft roster update to tide us over until Madden 21 in August?
Community ManagerThere are built in recording capabilities for the Xbox and PlayStation consoles. If you're able to get 5 minute clips to link to me I'd love to see what you're experiencing from your side. I haven't seen other reports of what you're specifically experiencing, so it sounds very isolated. A reinstall to the internal hard drive another time is worth a try to see if that clears up any corrupted game files that could be potentially causing this.
As for another roster update, those are done for the year. The Madden team has never done an off-season/Draft update for franchise because those transactions taking place in the offseason don't reflect the 2019 season. If I want to jump back into Madden 17, I'd want to see the rosters for that season while expecting to see the drafted players in Madden 18 on their respectable teams.
The Community for Madden takes charge on creating those off-season rosters that can be downloaded by Madden Share, too. There are dedicated fans that love creating classic team rosters or draft classes for the Madden Community. It's also a great opportunity for content creators to attract fans to their channels. 🙂
Nah, he’s telling the truth. I just bought and downloaded the game I’ll be more than happy to record a video and share it. I agree with what he says that they’re not going to catch every ball especially in coverage but come on you and I both know damn well in real life (I know this is a simulation) that even in coverage star receivers will catch the ball not all the time but majority of the time. Hopefully the next game will be better but we know that’s a big if.
