Today a new article on the Inside EA Blog focuses on the addition of Adaptive AI. This is something that will be seen in both Madden 10 and NCAA Football 10. This is certainly something that has been long overdue and will hopefully lead to a more realistic simulation whether that be offline or online. You can check out the full posting here.

First and foremost, we hope that our Adaptive AI will add a ton of replay value to our games this year by forcing you as a gamer to continue to mix up the way you play to have success. Football is a very complex game of chess – and this is a great first step towards re-creating that. Secondly, we hope this feature will continue to show our commitment at the Tiburon studio to creating a realistic simulation of football, as it exists in both NCAA Football 10 and Madden NFL 10.

Similar to a few weeks ago for NCAA the Madden 10 Community Event is taking place today. No new details are expected to come out of that from the attendees immediately however again it is a great opportunity for the community to impact the game given it’s still early enough in the development cycle to do so.

I also think that this AI needs to be able to wear off. Just like if i run a play that nets me a Touchdown. If i run it again after 3 quarters, the ability to remember that one play should degrade, and i should gain big yards. UNLESS your playing a Defense like the Steelers, or Ravens, or individuals like Brian Urlacher, Ed Reed, Ray Lewis, Troy P. And others like that. And BTW , Im not a Madden hater, I just want this game to be the best, and good luck to the Designers

Whether or not a play that got you a big gain will continue to get you big gains wouldn't be strictly based on Adaptive AI. You also have to consider the plays and formations the defense is in. For example, if you ran a weakside counter and got a big gain in the 1st Qtr. and ran it in the 3rd Qtr., but the defense this time blitzed the weakside linebacker and corner, you SHOULDN'T get a big gain, adaptive AI or not, because they called a great play to counter the play you called. Simple as that. That being said, I agree with the suggestion that if you don't call a play for a long time, it should be harder for the defense to recognize it, (unless it is one of your bread and butter plays that you call a lot).

Here's my question about all this. Can you use the adaptive AI to the offenses advantage? So if I run a formation and only run out of it all game can I then turn around and run a play action pass out of that same formation and the defense will bite more on the fake because it is expecting a run?

I was wondering the same thing. It better or this really doesn't make it realistic, more like a game. Since obviously if you've passed out of a shotgun type formation throughout the game they shouldn't expect you to run ONLY because you've ran most of the game in stuff like the I formation. It should take this situation into account as well.

It should…Hopefully its "in the game". It used to be.

I agree. That would be a nice addition and a great learning tool. Many teams actually have assistants who look for tenancies prior to, and during the game.

He should be able to handle it better now that he's retired. He lives in Pleasanton, so it wouldn't be that difficult to travel to Tiburon.
