God, every new things i hear from this is worse and WORSE.
Would be worse if it wasn't EA.
Like dumping a bloated rotting corpse in a pit of radioactive sewage; hard to make it worse.
Hmm, that's a good point.
For me it's not. Don't get me wrong, I hate AI.
But also, I don't buy games from EA for the past 10 years.
So all I'm hearing is that the Madden series will either be sold off, or die.
I only bought every few years. Because really, why buy 2013 when you have 2012? Buuuuut, you can justify buying 2017, when all you have is 2012.
I think that was the first Madden game I bought where it didn't have a season mode.
I do not give a FUUUUUCK about franchise mode. I don't care about running a team. I don't care about controlling an individual player from high school to NFL. I don't care about designing plays. I don't care about roster trades.
I don't even know the names of the players. I don't know what a nickle or dime is. I just know this play is a passing play, and I can either throw to L1, or X. Then I let the play develop, and see who's open.
All I want to do is play 16 games, and if we make it, the playoffs. Once we either win or don't win the superbowl, the game is over for me.
Literally the only 2 modes I give a flying fuck about are exhibition and season. Don't know don't care what player packs are, or elite cards, or any of this XP bullshit. I do not give one flying fuck.
But let the guy run, and I press the button, and he throws the ball. Then if he catches it, let me run with it.
And they took away the part of the game I spend 80% of my time in. So I took away any sales I gave them since.
Actually, shit, this is impressive.
I think you just explained how football is played to me in a way I can actually understand!
Thanks for that.
See, the thing is, the guy with the ball? He's the one with the ball.
And the guy with the ball??? Well he's the one with the ball!!! And as we all know, the guy who's playing with his balls, is the one who controls EVERYTHING!!! So you can't just give the ball to just anyone. I mean my god! What if you try to give the ball to some guy who's not ready to run??? You don't see Brady throwing a football to Stephen Hawking!!! You know why??? Because he's dead! And also because he can't run....because, again, he's dead. Dead people can't run.
I'm honestly baffled why Usain Bolt never played football. Imagine giving that guy the ball and telling him "your job.....is to RUN!!!"
Wasted oppertunity is what that is! Yeah, sure, he competed in the olympics. But just imagine if he made the Cleveland Browns into a winning team! He'd be the highest paid athlete EVER!!!
People would say "You won the BROWNS a championship??? Holy fuck! Lets get you on a box of Wheaties!"
I mean......right?
