I Would Hate Madden Less If...

tbs this year is an improvement on the arcade ish abilities

I agree so far. But when Most Feared rolls around, I think they're gonna start giving players the OP abilities/x-factors and maybe even buff some of them.

If I didn't get a 5 Int daily challenge every f'g day...

No it didn't. You die without honor.

I love the cut scenes.  It gives me more time to recover from going apeshit

I dont mind this game much when I actually have a good connection to their servers. I think EA is on the right track with some things. 

Biggest issue in the game to me is run blocking and blocking glitch blitz angles that dumb-out your OLmen. If they fix this, not a bad game. 

Not sure if its my area or what, but i lag a lot as well. Like, very bad input lag. I can kick the ball well on the meter and stuff, but moving players is incredibly laggy for me as is throwing passes. Not sure if its EA servers or what. Seems some people have issues and many don't.

i’m so sick of playing people who only run mid blitz the whole game

Blocking the blitzers really isn't the hard part once you can read the defenses correctly. It's frustrating when those players are also fielding elite-level lineups, so that you have to have elite-level players to throw to if you're to have any chance of converting for first downs. If you've got a quarterback with a slow release, that's also a huge problem.

This issue drives away the casuals like nothing else.

it’s not super difficult to go against unless like you said they have a really good team but its  just kinda annoying when they don’t

With my 86 OVR lineup, too many knockouts, and quite a few picks. Way too much pressure, and still too many defenders unabated entirely for the resources needed to protect the edges. It's worst when they're getting huge pressure with three or four so that they can keep dropping random guys into coverage in the middle, and the gratuitous defender moved over the nose just before the snap might as well say, "I play this way because Madden isn't football, and I'm trying to win Madden." Well, congratulations, Young Man in Mama's Basement. You've won at life. In your head.
