refs should be in the game and should affect the gameplay. if the ball hits them, well thats part of the game. it adds more realism to the game. those of you who applaud the gimmick features that ea has been feeding you are bunch of sheeps. we shouldn’t even have to ask for the refs. they were in previous maddens. i don’t remember anyone posting a complain about them being on the field so why take them out?

Yeah, we do have bigger problems. That’s why we NEED better tackle animations. To help escape the bigger problems.

Pasta any word on if they fixed the rocket catching from 08? Also i’m loving this new camera angle I just wonder how it will feel when playing against a live opponent.

[quote comment="21126"]really i dont really see a problem with it i almost think the opposite i mean the quarterbacks tackle way to well but i think the passing game is good improvment for the ai is neccasary u should leave every int from the game and no that it was because u throw a bad pass to the wrong man often the dbs drop those but then they catch they catch the hard throse the ints u never see in real life[/quote]

Firstly, you need to work on putting some punctuation in your posts. You know how difficult it was to make sense of that?

Secondly, I never had a problem avoiding picks in Madden 08 – I might throw 1 or 2 a game, no biggie. It’s the AI controlled QBs on the other team that are the biggest culprit, and a large reason for that is that dbs go after the pass aggressively, while WRs just follow their routes. It gets to the point sometimes that I’m running the guy who made the interception out of bounds because I’m sick of scoring off them.

Not to mention the fact that a slider setting of “0″ for interceptions should mean zero chance of interceptions… 0 or 100, it doesn’t seem to make a whole heap of difference.

[quote comment="21115"]everyone hear complains about the franchise for Madden Next Gen the past 3 years what do you guys think will make it better?

Personally theres only a few things nothing special.

1. Fix Progression system ( Ncaa Football 08 was great)
2. Fix scheduling so we play new people every year
3. make realistic stats for cpu
4. play clock sim so real stats for user games
5. be able to change postions for player ie. move 4-3 end to 3-4 outside linebacker
6. fix the draft so that its not runners recievers quarterbacks and corners dominating the first round look at it this year OL, DL, QB ,RB , DL, DL, DL, DL, LB, LB,
try to get that top 10 in madden 08 even with importing a ncaa draft class

like to see what you guys think, sick of the ref talk[/quote]

All good ideas, but honestly, when it comes to gameplay I’d be happy if they simply drastically cut down on the amount of TDs scored off interceptions, which means changing both the reciever and DB AI. That is Madden’s biggest flaw and has been for far too long.

if the ball goes through the ref there is no reason to put them in the game. in my opinion[/quote]

You should have refs (and kicking nets, and chain gangs) for the same reason that you have a stadium, a crowd, a skyline backdrop, and people on the sidelines (which really needs some improvement too) – atmosphere. If you want it to feel like the genuine NFL experience, then it has to at least LOOK like the genuine NFL experience.
