The Madden 12 Thread

[bbaker]

I created a Super-team in Madden 12 with the Niners.

QB: Cam Newton
RB: Mark Ingram
WR: Jeremy Maclin
WR: Titus Young
WR: Demaryius Thomas
TE: DJ Williams
TE: Vernon Davis
DE: Justin Smith
DE: Robert Quinn
DT: Nick Farley
DT: Tank Johnson
ROLB: Aldon Smith
MLB: Patrick Willis
LOLB: NaVorro Bowman
CB: Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie
CB: Carlos Rogers
FS: Donte Whitner
SS: Dashon Goldson

It took a lot of draft picks & big names flying around, but if you trade 1st/2nd round picks in the 1st preseason, you can get all the rookies you want.

The Madden NFL 13 Wishlist - Features - www.GameInformer.com


THE MADDEN NFL 13 WISHLIST
+Items italicized where also specifically mentioned in last year's list and have yet to be implemented or fixed!

General

No more fan voting for the cover athlete. We don't need another Peyton Hillis debacle
A better menu system. The current system obscures info onscreen, buries other menus, and is confusing in general
Better crowds and sideline players
Create-A-Play feature
Fix numerous bugs

Gameplay

AI that can accurately throw short passes to the flats and sidelines
QBs take too many sacks instead of either getting the ball off or throwing a wobbly pass
More information on the GameFlow plays so you know when you're choosing a 4-3 Cover 2 formation vs. a 3-4 one, for instance. Could we get a thumbnail of the play art?
An improved kicking game taking more variables into account and which is more challenging overall
The ability to create offensive and defensive player packages outside of a game situation
A better range of penalties called and fixes to the challenge system. Challenges aren't available when they should be, and the final calls can be baffling (like real life, we guess!)

+ New blocking logic for the second level so fullbacks and pulling guards put their hats on the immediate threat
+ True gang tackles
+ New passing trajectories to cut down on linebacker interceptions over the middle and scaling down of jumping linebackers
+ More ball awareness by players in the passing game, including better head tracking
+ Receivers come back for the ball and more jostling between the DBs and WRs – including the importance of the pass interference penalty
+ Make the fumble animations, minigame, and outcome match each other. Too many times what you see and who comes up with the ball is completely different
+ Defensive ends aren't effective in rushing the passer: A far cry from their importance in real life
+ Too many gimme INTs dropped
+ Better special teams blocking
+ Fewer canned animations and more real physics-based movement

Read on for more of our opinions on how to improve the series.

They need to do ALOT to convince me to ever play this again.

but I play Madden because I just go with my own sliders and just deal with the bull shit.

Looking at all the ovr ratings for defense and offense, the bears in Madden NFL 12 have the 25th best offense, and the 20th best defense, damn.... why aren't we picking in the top ten?

 

[The Bandit]

I've had Madden 02, 07, and 12. And I think 12 is the worst I've had. I think 07 was the best. The only thing 12 did better was graphics. I hated all the new features they added

So. I played two games on my superstar last night. I'm a WR...had a combined 370 yards and 3 TDs in those two games.




Forgot to save.

I don't know if you guys import draft classes, but if you do, are all the names just random? Instead of "Andrew Luck" it's "Seth King" or whatever?
