My mother-in-law gave me a gamestop gift card for my birthday.
The last 2 years I've used it to pick up Madden; wonder if I should do the same this year. ( actually, I think last year I used it for Red Dead Redemption II)

I really just worry I'm going to feel like I did last year with 19; played about 3 weeks, then didn't touch it again because it was broken.

on the Superstar mode.....how is the AI when you don't have the ball ? in 19 I played a season in CFM as a QB, for grins, where I only ran plays that the coach 'suggested' just to see what it would do and my RB ended up with like 600 yds on like 275 carries. Basically, it was absolutely pointless to call a running play as a QB in CFM.

It's better than 19, even if you ****ing hate Madden a guy who said it still wasn't good gave this one a 5 when he gave 19 a 2.

It's probably the best Madden of the last 5 years, problem though is when like Madden 08 was better is how it gets the 5.

this is light years ahead of 19

it is so much fun

Have they patched out the egregious bugs yet?

i mean i've played two games and about 3 hours of practice mode and i haven't seen any gamebreaking bugs

Dev traits for Star+ players in franchise mode require 500 snaps to unlock. It resets back to 0 after every game. That's pretty gamebreaking.

If a game ends and you're not involved, you're stuck looking at the simulation screen with the clock at 0:00, whether you've won or lost until you turn it off. That's pretty gamebreaking.

Not to mention all the goofy glitches and obviously scripted shit.

Well it wouldn't be August if Superturtle wasn't bitching about Madden.

I'm legitimately surprised you didn't even make a token attempt to defend it and immediately tapped out.

i did

i've played it for several hours and it's extremely satisfying

i'm sure the things you mentioned will be patched

So apparently they are saying you can earn X-factor abilities with players.

Thought this was interesting..

Of course they'll be patched, but until they are the game is borderline unplayable to me. That's why I asked.

have you played it yet?

The way I understand it your X Factor depends on what type of player you are. So a slot WR would get RACem Up, a deep threat WR would get Double Me, and a possession WR would get Max Security.

**** no. I'm not paying $60 for a game that's still laughably broken, let alone pay $20 on top of that to play it 3 days early.

goddamn this game is going to be so much fun LMAO

if you haven't played it, you truly can't comment
