Madden NFL 2011 *OFFICIAL THREAD*

Man this game went down the shitter!
-There is no defense in this game..none! Awareness for the defense went down. Its also frustrating to see my DE stand next to AP and watch him run away
-Yeah i get it. they changed the way you kick the ball, but kicking online sucks! It seems like the lag on kicking the ball is the real challenge.
-BROKEN TACKLES!! Holy fuck we got ourselves a bunch of Jim browns on the field.
-What happened to the hit stick? Soo many times i've seen players shrug off a p.willis hit stick. Why even have that feature if they can shrug it off?
-Nano blitzes are still a bitch. I hate this crap and something tells me it wont get fixed.
Fuck last years madden wasn't so bad but this one is a pile of crap.
That being said i hope the patch at least fixes a majority of these problems.

I've played a few more exhibition games, and I still don't like the new kicking meter. I don't mind the audible that much, but I don't like that strategy pad. I don't like that they took the sprint button away either. There were a few times where that sprint button would have been useful. Justin Forsett was wide open for the screen, he got the ball and I juked the hell out of a few defenders, and he was going at the speed of a DT once he broke out into the secondary, and his speed attribute shows he's suppose to be fast, I was pissed, because I got like 10+ yards before I got tackled.

go into options and turn off auto sprint.

yes there are alot of problems, but they said they were fixing defensive awareness and broken tackles and well as most nano blitz bugs.

also changing the stradegy pad to last years.

Patch should be out once the final rosters are done.

^I'll try that out

Well I went back to my Madden 11 and checked what settings I did when I first got the game. I didn't remember if I changed that, "Auto sprint", setting or not, and I did change it to where that setting was off. I tried both settings, "Auto sprint", off and on, and nothing changed when I was the ball carrier and in the open field. My RB/WR still was at a slow pace with no one around. My last exhibition game, with that setting set at, "Off", the ballcarrier still ran as fast as a DT with no defender around and the defenders caught up to me when I broke away from the front line.

I wish they made it to where you could have the option if you want the sprint button or not, instead of completely taking the sprint button off. The sprint button was very useful in previous madden games.

I don't even care about the kicking meter or the stragey pad, but that sprint button is what I care about. How does a slow ass LB catch up to a speedy RB while he's in the open field?

The right trigger (xbox 360) is your sprint button, so when auto sprint is off, you use that to sprint.

 

[savage]

LOL duh I know that, but it isn't working. Oh well.

 

[NAMO]

how can it not work? Make sure auto sprint is off, then go to 'save all'

I dunno maybe you want your player to go from a simple jog to warp speed lol

also what running back are you using? Check the players speed / acceleration rating, go to practice with chris johnson and do it and I bet it works

I don't know why it doesn't work. I did make sure auto sprint was off and I did save it. I always save any changes I make before I play any exhibition game.

I dunno maybe you want your player to go from a simple jog to warp speed lol

I want my player to sprint when I hit the sprint button, but he doesn't do that. He goes at the same pace as he was when he first caught the ball or when he first broke out of tackles on a rush play.

I'm using Justin Forsett

 

[NAMO]

do you know his acceleration and speed rating?

Also try a pitch play and hit sprint right away, or even a screen, just to see. but if both those ratings (acc/spd) are low, he won't move too fast.

better yet go in prac mode with offense only and try it, then try it again with the titans and CJ because he is the fastest in the game, see if you can see a big difference

 

[savage]

I'm not too worried about it anymore. I'm still winning my games lol

 

[NAMO]

you gotta get online though, its 2010 lol quit being a jew

 

[savage]

I only have time for work, sleep and siccnes.net/vb lol

More than 500 player movements and changes comprise Madden NFL 11's final pre-season roster update, which is now live for both Xbox 360 and PS3.

The moves account for a lively NFL training camp period. In addition to the usual trades and releases (232 cut), the game added 165 players to its overall roster.

The update also reflects real-life developments, such as Dennis Dixon taking over as Pittsburgh's starting quarterback during Ben Roethlisberger's suspension; removing teammate Santonio Holmes from the depth chart, also for a suspension; Derek Anderson taking over as the Cardinals' starting quarterback, in light of Matt Leinart's release; and Seahawk Mike Williams' comeback story - moving to No. 1 in Seattle's receiving corps.

Thirty-nine players moved up or down in overall rating, usually two to three points. The biggest ratings decrease was for Pittsburgh receiver Emmanuel Sanders, dropping to 62 from 66. The biggest gains were enjoyed by Colin Allred, Tennessee linebacker, and Matt Flynn, Green Bay quarterback, both increasing from 57 to 66. Among players higher on the depth charts, St, Louis safety Craig Dahl went up eight points overall, to 75 from 67.

The roster is not automatically downloaded, like a patch. To get it, select "Online," then "Madden NFL Online" and then "Download Roster" from the "Rosters" menu in the Online interface.

The NFL opened last night with New Orleans defeating Minnesota 14-9. The rest of its regular season openers will follow on Sunday and Monday. To celebrate the new season, Madden NFL 11 is offering multiplayer scouting reports for free beginning today through the entire weekend.

 

[NAMO]

the roster is not 100% right there are players names and positions wrong, it was rushed out.

patch 3 will be out in a week or so and it should fix the rosters + the bugs in the game.

 

[YUNG $PIDER]
