im addicted to h2h draft challenge, its so much fun. opened up a elite badge pack set and got sherman and eban mathis

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Is it worth buying?

To me yes. But I've been heavy into MUT starting on M25 and its my main (only) draw.

Way more challenging game this year, more fun to play IMO.

i'll probably buy it eventually when there's a sale. mlb the show is still holding me down.

 

[cashbanks]

Probably trading it in tomorrow, joint is trash, franchise sucks IMO

I'm disappointed with the franchise as well,

They hyped it and it's the same as its been for 10yrs just a better presentation, there's no real depth to it.

"Tuning update based on community feedback is out today. Patch coming very soon. Rex Dickson added,"


lol it was a good one. We've probably played over 30 games between 15 and 16, a few things I noticed:

You hurry up a lot and thats not good if you get 3 and outs cause it gives me more time with the ball.

Your favorite targets are Dez and Witten. That last play in the video, Witten was tripled teamed and you still threw it. A few plays before you can see Dez was doubled also.

I would spread the ball more and run more.

The skills trainer has some specific detail you should be looking for before you run the ball and if you follow them you should at least get 4 yards a pop. Also don't hit sprint immediately. Your line wont get a chance to block cause you'll probably beat them to their assignments.

fam I appreciate the pointers...specifically about the run game tutorials and the fact that I shouldn't hit sprint immediately..lol. I can't help myself man I hold r2 religously(even the few years it was out of the game). But I'll definitely start doing that, because I always run into the line on the inside runs.

And yea I get a lil dez and written happy, no denying I'm guilty as charged there man. I'm usually good about going thru my progressions man but that Dolphins defensive line gets there fast, lol..

My main thing is I gotta be more disciplined, top to bottom. Ur right I don't run enough, crazy cause I ran heavy last year..

I gotta get a W tho man...lol. This losing streak is getting pitiful.smh. I gotta be 0-10 so far this year

 

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

Haven't got a W in Madden 16..

 

[District of Columbia]

The update has made 2 man under a lot more effective ...safeties actually play the ball in the air now

 

[galove]

Man coverage is rediculous this yr. I play zone but people kill me with man blitzs

lol Suh and Wake definitely lets me play more coverage.

I haven't played any h2h games yet. I should start today. H2H games turn into shootouts. Had to find a good defense.

Man coverage/blitzes with adjustments have always been my bread and butter. AI does severely dumb things in zone.

 

[OneNightDan]

If y'all play Madden heavy, you know the first 2 weeks or so after the release it's all messed up. Once the roster updates start hitting, & bug fixes almost every week it'll get better and better. So far, I've enjoyed this version just fine.

 

[galove]

Yeah zone d is turned down a lot this yr and blitzing is more important. Working on my zone blitz out of 3-4 and nickel 2-4-5 and 3-3-5 for all my hardcover gamers. Trying to reach top 100

 

[dabottom305]

I used to be afraid of that 3-3-5 and 3-4 cause I thought that were weak against the run. I still prefer the 4-3 formation.

 

[bleed05]

3-4 is the best D in the game to me...better leverages compared to 43

I must say that defense on last gen can be very irritating when it comes to the pass game. It seems like my secondary doesn't want to put their hands up for an interception when I'm usering them. I can be right there near the WR/TE & they still won't put their hands up.

Record on MUT so far is like 26-15 or somewhere around that. All of my starters are in the low-mid 80s except my kicker, punter & fullback.

I'm glad that they finally fixed the encroachment penalty issue. That was so annoying.
