The details of the first patch for Madden 10 are now out thanks to a FAQ video posted by Ian Cummings on the Inside EA Blog. The patch is currently in certification and could be out as early as next week. The second patch which will be more concentrated on gameplay feedback is currently in the works.

This first patch is even more significant in that it has addressed some areas that normally wouldn’t have been in a release day patch as well as adding new content with the inclusion of the broadcast camera angle. I’m definitely most excited to finally play without the concern of holding on field goals which has cost me points, victories, and unneeded stress!

Continue on to read the list of fixes and additions includes in the first patch for Madden 10 and leave your thoughts in the comments!

Added Super Bowl and Playoff field conditions in Online Franchise

Fixed false start griefing issue with online games

Fixed video player issues (sometimes video would hang) in Online area

Improved quality of uploaded video highlights

Switched ranked online games to seven minute quarters

Random stability fixes

Added broadcast camera

Tuned slider effectiveness

Made fatigue affect ratings more

Tuned broken tackle chances

Reduced/removed holding on kick attempts

Is it just me but it seems that since this most recent patch plays that involve backs running routes out of the backfield the backs are running extremely slow...any idea why???

c man

audibling to your running back in the flat just got worse!!!!, 7 min online matches take an hr!!!! I'm a level 3 player 46-10 and played a kid with the Vikings and lost, he ran the same play with AP who had 300 yards rushing a 6 td's??? I've never let more than 60 yards in a game b4 gotta fix the cheaters and stuff like that

Zac

7 minutes quarters suckk!!!! took me an hour to do one game! everything was going fine but now i really wont play this game as much.

They need to fix the running game and stop making the D- Line so effect. It's good that the defense stops you sometimes but it's ridiculous when their barely even letting you get back to the line of scrimmage. The defense is nowhere near you and all a sudden their on your ass. They run fastest than most of your running backs. I wouldn't doubt if they were juicing up on the sidelines. The computer freezes you sometimes when you have a clear path or when you about to brake a big run. There's too many glitches in the run game. What fun is it to brake a big run every five games you mine as well throw the ball the whole time then. Another thing is they fumble the ball way to often. I play on my skills, the passing is fine, the defense is alright but the running sucks and good running back in the game can run all over you and break tackles I don't see how this is realistic. They need to fix this other than that it's not a bad game the best one they made so far. I'll give you my opinion on other the things they need to fix in this game but this is one of the biggest problems in the game.

Terry

Take your hand off of the speed burst until you get past the line and you'll remedy just about everything you complained about...

optimusp76

Kevin Dallosto

MADDEN NFL 10 XBOX 360.

PLEASE SOMEONE TELL IAN CUMMINGS TO BRING BACK CAPTAINS PATCHES FOR VIKINGS!!!

tim

How about the updated rosters with new player trades and signings. Also how about a play editor so we can design our own plays.

guest

im tired of the oline having eyes in the back of there head my blitzing linebackers always get taking out by the guard from the opposite side it is really starting to piss me off

Tony

I also have an issue with the errant lobs that are thrown when getting a pass off while being sacked. Is it just me or does Donavon McNabb or Tony Romo lob passes every time they get hit while getting hit. I don't think so. The QB should be able to at least be able to get off a short to medium throw, according to the QB's abilities.

Marv

any idea if they're gonna fix that one thing that I hate about all the garbage that never happens in real life, that is so fake

GRUNT3

you mean like linebackers jumping 20 feet in the air to make a one handed pick?what's fake about that?

hunsy34

Wondering if not being able to tune the user and computer sliders after you start an offline franchise will be addressed?

Scott

what are you talking about?

Just back out of the franchise, adjust your settings/sliders, save your profile, then go back in to the franchise.

GRUNT3

Adjust your sliders during an offline franchise game (settings) you have to do this anyway because play now and practice mode are different for some reason

hunsy34

I dint know that worked cause normally the sliders are right in the franchise options, thanks scott

Ted Rene

correct me if im wrong the new rosters is out but the patch isnt yet ?I If so will it come out on tuesday when the server is down

KCC

Personally I liked the amount of broken tackles. It resulted in people having to leave their linebackers in rather than playing dime all game like the old maddens. I hope they didn't tune it too much.

madhatter

I dont see why anyone ever posts here on pasta padre... You NEVER get responses! All this is is a ton of people asking questions that dont get answers. its a waste of time. How often does this Pasta padre actually respond to peoples questions???

blue

no way im in a strong 32 team league. the first few weeks we weeded out the flacks

Wiebs72

I am glad to see some fixes/ patches coming also, but the two biggest non game play issues for me are, 1. No salary cap in online franchise, 2. No trade filters for the computer in online franchise. What a pain in the butt to have to regulate trades and free agent moves. They're close, just need it a little closer!!

ghostnote

oh yea...whats the chances you can bring back fairplay?

ghostnote

can they do anything about 8 dropped interceptions a game?

Skihawks

Overall, a pretty solid list. Any word on the inclusion of more throwback uniforms or stadiums outside the DLC content already set to release?

Fleet

What about Marc Colombo's inability to block on outside runs?

aaron

awesome any idea if they r gonna fix the halftime stats after the second quarter when they do that show they go over the stats but the numbers dont add up properly when u start the third and take a look the stats are proper .. no big deal i guess just kinda annoying that and how much the comp blitzs

J cafe

will this patch apply to offline franchises that are already started

EARoxyesthatisanX

When are they going to patch balls going through players hands? I mean, it's a good feature, if that is what Ian says it is.

ODarius

what do u do to get da patch on my game

SwiftyCG

if your games hooked to xbox live once you start game up it will ask u to update it,, but its not out yet

MsD81

Hello? What about the fix to the 49ers helmet color??? That was talked about like weeks ago and then never mentioned again... Is it in this patch or what???

pastapadre

That *may* be included in the AFL DLC. I've heard some comments that suggest there may be other uniform fixes included in that which they just aren't going to advertise. If it isn't there then I'll try and find out whats going on with it.

Brad

Im very glad to hear about the improved toe drag catch logic, it is once again non-existent as it has been in the past. Ive seen one toe drag, it was a pass to the flats and my RB was like 5 yards from the sideline.....didnt make any sense. Theres virtually no awareness of the edges of the endzone when a receiver is attempting to make a catch. Player awareness has much to do about this, but even with L-Fitz it didnt matter.

John Madden's Chode

Just tell them to remove the damn accelerated clock and go back to the normal 5 minute quarters.

BLACKFLAGZ10
