Any Madden 11 players?

EllDee · 08-20-2010, 02:21 PM

I got the game when it came out. It had to grow on me, still debating whether I like it or not. I've been playing Madden for over 10 years now but wasn't/not a big fan of the last two.
My main gripe with this one is the all-madden level. Instead of just making the computer really good (which i wouldnt mind since it's all madden), they also make my good and reliable players suck! fumbling and dropping passes when it benefits the computer the most, i.e, third and short. There's no need to fight to recover a fumble, it never let you win the battle, even if you were on the ball first, only way you get the ball is if there is no one else around. My team drops 4/5 interceptable balls. Add that to the fact the computer almost always break the first tackle or two, especially on third down, fighting for a first, or on goal line. It makes it not only almost impossible to win but kind of lame. I keep playing though because I'm addicted and feels great if and when you do win! Or come close Lol. Anyone else experiencing this?

Here's the only football game I played, besides real football. And that electric vibrating field game with the plastic players.

This was MNF, and we had leagues and playoffs and a SB when we were kids. Loved it. I know, I'm a bit behind the times.

Madden NFL 11 Tips

Tip #2 talks about controlling fumbles.

I gotta find that tip. I went to options and turned it off. I won the fight half the time after that by letting it do it by itself. I haven't played anyone other than the computer yet. I'll probably whoop whoever I play since playing the cheating computer make me that much better, smarter, and aggressive. That's usually what happens anyway. I take out my built up anger on my nephew and his friends! Lmao. On the game and they are all grown (just had to clarify that).
