Great physics. Great gameplay. Great graphics. But not being able to create a player and give him the ratings I want and put him in my own customizable dynasty is a HUGE downfall for me with this game. I can only use a created player in exhibition? That's weak.
Connected careers is awesome....I have no problem building up a character......but I'd also like to have fun and play the game as my created player, in my own dynasty and build my team in a franchise as well.
Online......well it's fun.....but as soon as you get to the higher levels it becomes hit or miss with the cheeser, exploiters and arcade style madden players.....going for it every fourth down, onside kicks every kick off, bomb every other play, gimmick plays.....I've already seen the madden glitches....why is it that some people can call one play and it works nearly all the time....or they call three plays that work all game......when you say the AI has improved, why is it that my defense can't react accordingly and know to stop all three variations of a play that's called?
Because online I have to deal with cheeses and exploits I get frustrated.....because I have to play madden 24/7 to get my players ratings up in connected careers, without being able to create my own dynasty with created players I truly feel the game is a disappointment because I am limited in the fun I can have. I guess after months of connected career when my qb finally gets good then maybe I'll have more fun......but why can't I have the experience of my created player being good now....why can't I control the players and the coaching in a franchise.....
Madden gets a rating of 6.....the game is fun, but after awhile it's the little stuff that pisses me off.....humans and their gimmicks....I'd rather play the computer for a straight up game of football....but my options against the CPU are limited and that ruins the experience.....big fail EA when you actually made great strides in gameplay.....
I'd rent but not b
