Why does EA cater to losers who spend no time interacting with the outside world? Literally every game I play is against the same defense, the same offense, and the same glitches. They repeatedly choose to ignore things that the Madden community care about because it takes too much effort to fix. Why can you block a field goal every time on current gen? Why are some RPO's literally impossible to stop unless you user them? Honestly I'm not sure why we all play this game anymore. We all hate it. It has a 1.8/5 rating. Literally nobody actually enjoys this game more than maybe 25% of the time. In order to be good you need to give up all social interaction and go to YouTube to learn op plays, then practice them 8 hours per day. EA finally put in something that beat the meta, which was Quadfather. Once they realized that made all the sweaty losers in their parents basement mad, they nerfed it within a day(yes he was op and needed a nerf but that's not the point). If that was some kind of passing ability that catered to the one play touchdown every drive people, they never would have changed it. They only change something when its a 3 second fix in the code. Halftime adjustments literally serve no purpose, but they keep it in. Most people don't have enough coins to put in backups with certain abilities for certain games, but even if they did nobody uses it because the menu is so laggy there's a good chance you inactivate something and don't have enough time to activate another player. Also, it removes locker abilities. There are glitches that have been in the game for years that most people hate, but they won't fix it because everyone that spends money likes them. I don't care how good someone is. There is no reason for someone to send a 6 man blitz, me to block 7, and 2 people come unblocked. The line literally just stands there and hopes the defense runs into them, and if they don't then they don't block them. If you're still reading this for some reason, think about how many times you actually have fun playing online. Once again, if this is against forum rules please report and delete. I couldn't find them and needed a place to rant.
Your thread is fine. You're sharing your points without obscene language or two word "EA Sucks" repeated over and over. It's well thought out and well written. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts.
Honestly this madden when I match up against one of those type of players, win or lose afterwards I go right to the block button. I'd rather get blown out by multiple formations and plays rather than glitches and exploits.
yeah I 110% agree tired of the unbalanced meta cheese that is now madden makes the game a lot less fun when people exploit the game instead of play the game and actually have fun
Aaaand I just lost my super bowl because my kick with 2 seconds left in a 20-20 game got blocked and returned. EA is such a fun company.
Seems like a pretty reasonable rant. I enjoy playing tough games with multiple formations (something that resembles a real football game). I don’t watch YouTube nor do I search for any kind of glitches or nonsense like that. I do have a couple of coverage beaters that I’ve discovered on my own through trial and error and learning to recognize coverages and tendencies.
While I will gladly sweat it out with the best of them because I’m very competitive, sometimes I actually concede when I’m winning because I may be in a position to help someone else get some rewards when I may have very little to gain from a win.
In the end I try my best to have fun and laugh off some of the crazy stuff that happens. I try to enjoy the cards that look like fun and build my team the way I like it, not the way that someone else says to build it.
Good luck, I hope you can find some fun in the game again!
