The QB Passing & Accuracy is terrible !

Like when I play H2H against one another .. and they scored .. and it's your turn to do the scoring .. so when you see the first pass .. you are like Ahhhhhhhhhh.. like you have been " Passing " on Madden for years .. What Gives Huh ?!? .. like how can you Retaliate when the QB is missing the mark .. like it's doing it deliberately .. like my WR - TE - RB are being missed with corrupt passes .. because I can't hit my Receivers .. when I suppose to .. like why do I keep throwing to the Defense all the time .. like my Wr can be open .. and soon as the ball is out it's deliberately " AIMING " at the defense .. like why can't I win because the CPU is corrupted and definitely cheats for the other team .. like it's doing it on purpose .. like I not .. or look like Tom Brady ? ..  But I can Throw .. and Screw just like him ?.. so please fix this broken game .. like it's repackaged of the same game .. just made it more prettier !

  • Now I have to admit I haven't "played" a Madden game in some years.  I used to buy the game religiously every single year, but once they made the focus on MUT I decided it wasn't for me.  I've watched plenty of YouTube vids over the last few weeks in an attempt to see if anything had changed.  Sadly, it had not.  The graphics and player movement look like it did when I used to play the game back in the early 2000's.   The graphics are a bit better, but the movement of the players is pathetic.  If they spent more time on the actual game and not the MUT * I'm sure the gameplay itself would improve.  EA is more worried now about getting your cash after you buy the game with the in game cosmetic stuff, cards, uniforms, facial stuff, its a shame.

    That is completely correct. Nobody would be spending money on micro transactions if it weren't for MUT, so it's going to get the most attention from EA. I do sorely miss the days of Madden when playing football was enough. It's even more sad that they continue to get $60 each year for a game with minimal changes and continuously broken gameplay. When you look at how much they make from selling packs, and how little development time there is in releasing virtually the same game each year, customers are getting a massive beating. Unfortunately it will continue until people stop buying it (which won't happen) or someone steps in and makes them change. Worse is that they have a stranglehold on the NFL videogame market since there is no competition.

  • Why is this keeps happening all the time .. like is the game doing this deliberately ? .. like is the game Synchronized and designed to Cheat for the other team .. and especially Elite teams .. and certain teams that Madden caters to .. like is the CPU On It's Side ? .. because I keep seeing a pattern all the time .. like what's wrong with the Throwing .. Accuracy .. and Aiming at the right Receiver when my man is open .. and why the pass is always AIMING AT THE DEFENSE ALL THE TIME .. like it's deliberately doing so .. like the pass is to Triangle Square X and Cirlce .. or whatever system that you are playing on.. like throw directly at the Wide Receiver when he is open .. and stop throwing to the dirt and OUT OF BOUNDS all the time .. it seems that it does that deliberately too like it's Synchronized and Designed to do so .. and finally throws correctly then the Receiver drops it like the game is Scripted to do so .. so fix your passing because it's not throwing the ball correctly at all when I am open !!

    Why does the Receiver keeps " Dropping " the ball after a little hit .. like sure I can understand after a Massive Hit .. but a Mini hit .. No Way .. like if you've watched a real Football Game .. like the Receiver can take a shot after being hit .. since the"  HITSTICK "  Dominates The Game .. to have nothing to protect the ball .. and don't say R1 .. because I have used R1 for a while and the Receivers and Running Backs and Tight End let go of the ball like it's not problem .. like some people relying on the Hitstick and popped that ball out .. and that would make him play a real game .. like people don't always drop the ball after a " Big Hit " .. if you don't believe me .. Watch a Full Game of NFL Football and see if there is a Fumble after every hit or a catch ? .. like some let go .. and some just don't .. and when I throw to my Receiver like running the same play like the first time I can understand him dropping the ball .. but after the second .. or third time .. then I know that the game is literally Cheating .. or it's Designed and Scripted to do so .. you don't believe me .. THEN TURN ON THE REAL NFL And SEE THE REALINESS Oof a real Football Game .. or is Madden more of a Arcade Game than a Simulation Game .. Questions Anyone ??

  • Well in my opinion the game play So-So in this order .. because the CPU Manipulates the game ... and that the game is Scripted and Synchronized and Designed to Cheat for the other team .. because if you buy any game .. it should play like you are watching a real Football Simulation Game .. and not a Arcade Video Game .. like it is a Video Game yes .. but it should not cater to certain teams and being to cheat all the time .. like it should play like the real thing .. and the game should be on equal ground when you are playing someone like if he scores .. you should have the same results as he does without the CPU Screwing you over constantly .. like if your Man is open then let the pass hit him in the number and not at the Defense like the real thing !

  • Well I was more of a H2H person than a MUT Player .. but like any company they are about money .. and they are trying to make a profit .. and make more since these things were free back in the days of old .. but to me the best Madden Football Game was on the PS2 when it was Peyton Manning was with the Colts and they had a Awesome Running Back .. like that was when Football was actually football .. but first and 10 miss pass second and 10 miss .. third and 10 miss pass and you decide to go for it .. and then it actually want to throw an Accurate pass only for the Receiver to DROP IT  .. Like What'aaaaaaaa .. like What A Scripted Designed and Synchronize Game 

  • 1. L1 Button = thing L1 for a High Pass over the Defense like I have been picked off like so many times .. that I rely on the L1 button to throw over the Defense that is trying to guard a Receiver .. so when I hold this button down the button to throw a high pass over great Interception people that are great at it .. so when I hold it down .. it still throws the same regular pass like without holding no buttons at all .. and it drives me crazy 

    2 When I put someone in Spy = when I'm on Defense I would take a Defensive Player that maybe a Linebacker when the QB want to run when nobody is open .. so I highlight the player .. like I have been doing for years .. so when the ball is Hiked .. and I see that the QB starts to run .. and he runs right past the Linebacker ? .. and I'm like .. didn't I put him in Spy ? .. so I did it again .. like it's not even in Spy .. like what's wrong with your game Man .. like I have been doing this for years .. and it act like I never did it at all .. and that Sucks 

    3 The Flip On The Defense = like when I'm on Defense and I accidentally hit L3 .. and the Defense Flipped to the Defensive side of view .. so I couldn't switch it back .. until the next play .. so I found out that you turn this option " OFF " .. So I thought .. because I went to the Settings and turned this option off so I went to play a game .. and hit it on accident again .. and it flipped back again .. and I was like I thought turned it off .. but Nope it just doesn't work !?! #@%8

    4 R1 For Protecting The Ball = like I use this button when people try to make me Fumble .. so when I am running downfield .. and the defensive guy coms at me .. so I hold down the button .. and brace for impact .. and the defensive guy still makes me fumble .. even though I held down the button .. so I read the instructions on how to hold the ball to protect it .. so as a RB WR TE  .. when I have the ball either from running .. or catching a pass it still doesn't work 

    5 TOTAL CONTROL OVER PLAYER = After Kickoffs .. Runs .. After The Pass .. like you can't turn up field .. like I want to turn left of right .. and the CPU Forces me to run in a different direction .. and this happens on Defense too .. like I can be guarding someone on offense .. and the CPU with slow my Man DOWN'nnn like it's doing it on purpose .. like when I see a pass when I am on offense and when I throw the pass to a certain Receiver and the pass is in the air .. its like you can take and move the Receiver where the ball is .. and it seems like you hardly can't .. like say you are running with the ball the CPU have you on clamps .. like if you wanted to turn in a different direction .. to are limited to do so !!!
