I had mine muted but then i'm playing and i heard a voice, i was like wtf lmao. From now on, i'll put myself in my own party so i don't have to hear some manchild freaking out over a game

Mic stays on mute. I don’t talk and I don’t want to talk to anyone else. I’m usually listening to a podcast while I’m playing  anyway so I don’t want to be disturbed with video game trash talk.

This is is exactly why I don't use the audio for Madden I'll just listen to music or whatever. Plus the announcers have been saying the exact same things for years. It's funny bec I can see the mic indication on their name, but they can talk to nobody all they want.

And start talking shit? This is Madden, where animations, abilities, cheese, and AI manipulation decides like 80% of the game. Why would you ever get on the mic and start cursing at someone because your cpu got an interception? This community is sad. People take the game too serious because they have no real life success so i guess winning in Madden helps them.

People take the game too serious

this you?

How does getting on the mic acting like an asshole relate to my post? Is there something wrong with you dude?

I have used the mic a few times. Mainly to ask for someone to play it straight or to run some different plays. I've stopped doing it though. Partly because I guess how someone plays the game is up to them, even if 4th and 23 from their 8 does seem a bit unrealistic but mainly because there's no point. A lot of players seem to want to play silly buggers for 10 minutes and then quit, presumably in order to luck into a player worse than them? How that helps them longer term I've no idea so I just turned the mic off and accepted that H2H is a shit show full of children.

How can you ask someone to play the game your way?

You said "people take the game too serious" and you are also complaining because people quit on MUT chumps games. I am just pointing out your hypocrisy, my dude.

I know, it's why I stopped.

But "my way" as you put it is just to do stuff that is vaguely realistic. I'd say at least 40% of the games I play on MUT don't get beyond the 1st or 2nd possession. Either the guy quits after the 1st INT or after going for it on 4th and forever in some idiotic field position. I suppose I shouldn't care; I won after all but it does get tiring and I thought I might be able to persuade the other player to try playing it straight. It did actually work a few times and I had some good games, you know, just saying 'come on mate, its 4th and 30. Just punt". But most of the time it didn't.

What you say is true. Its not for me to say how someone else should play the game but I don't know what fun is to be found in quitting out of games because of your own stupidity. How does that make you better?

Anyway, like I said, I don't bother anymore; I muted the mic and just get on with it.  I also play way less H2H.

Find 20 other guys and message me and we play real Football.

“Your mic is broken I can’t understand you” “what? I can’t understand you bro it’s all staticy. Headset may be broke”

then listen to them scramble to fix their mic for the next 5 minutes.
