I try to enjoy Madden because I love football. Everyone I play against online does the same thing. Hike the ball back up 10 yards with the QB until on of the drag routes of the receiver(s) break through the zone or out runs the man to man. It’s not enjoyable because I use the Raiders and they don’t have a sufficient pass rusher but in real life you couldn’t do this every single play. I’ve played roughly 20 games and this is all i’m seeing. Same BS as last years madden. If the developers would just fix this exploit then i’d be happy.

Re: Everyone Plays The Same
That’s why I don’t play online unless it’s a notorious 32 man online franchise. Even then.. it can be hard. I mainly enjoy Vs CPU if you can find a good set of sliders (check out armor and swords or schnaidt personally). -
Re: Everyone Plays The Same
Me and a friend played about 15 seasons last madden but we are waiting until the franchise update to start but to kill time i’ll play a user. I never tried sliders but i’ll give it a tryComment

Re: Everyone Plays The Same
Theres always an answer on defense tho..you need to try manually setting your flat zone depths, run contain, cheat pass pre play...I love when I play someone that their only game is to cheese...they may get me early in the 1st quarter, but you better believe im shutting it down quickly after.Comment

To be honest this sounds exactly like you would enjoy a 32 man user "sim" league. Compete for the win obviously, but with certain rules and more focused on "love for football" than just pure winning and playing for a good rank at all costs. Both ways of playing are fine, but for each their own preferences.
Find a good league and enjoy Madden much more! I think I wouldn't play anymore if that wasn't the case. Even some bugs/exploits don't matter as leagues usually have rules against it, so much more community centered.Comment

Re: Everyone Plays The Same
No matter what EA fixes or does there's always going to be the cheese plays that people find. It's just the nature of online play unfortunately, that's why I only play the team up mode with friends, and even then it's super frustratingComment

Re: Everyone Plays The Same
That's pretty natural in online games of all genres. Players tend to gravitate towards a "meta" and whatever strategy is dominant at the time.
In the plus side, if you play something different, you can run through a *lot* of these goofball who won't have any idea how to stop it.Bills, Sabres, Illini, Cubs, basically any team that abuses its fanbase and I'm there.Comment

Re: Everyone Plays The Same
I get your frustration but you can't expect EA to create a system in which idiots play realistically. As long as folks have any sort of choice as to how they play then there will always be idiots who play like this.
My advice? Find a good league to join and/or look for folks who you may randomly play who play realistically and befriend them.Streaming PC & PS5 games, join me most nights after 6:00pm ET on TwitchTV https://www.twitch.tv/shaunh20
