I had a dream about Rust last night and it was awesome. It felt so in depth. I was like a mix between The Sims and Rust. We could build anything, pick up any weapon, and just explore everything. There was even a point when it turned into a zombie game and you could barricade yourself into cities while fighting people. There was even a point when two rival tribes bum rushed eachother in a valley and had a battle... the last part probably happened because I remembered when Ferny, Eznark, Crow, and co. killed me in the valley :\

I never killed you Mcneily! I shot you in the leg once, but Eznark and Crow actually DID kill you when we raided Somnia's house lol I had the video on my archive but it got deleted :(

Man, we had so many good times in Rust.

I was just shooting you and giving you food so you would heal up. Crow is the asshole who shot you in the head!

I only ever killed Bob. Walking up to a naked Bob and shooting him in the heart with an arrow is probably the funniest thing I have ever done in a video game. I couldn't stop laughing.

Ah I remember raiding that house where we couldn't blow up the walls, we spent like 2 hours trying to knock the walls down.

Though the best ever is when we trapped the admins on the roof and then had mission impossible music playing as they tried to rescue their friends.

YES, I remember we had people trying to hatchet down wooden walls cause we didn't know if you could break them and then we tried like 5 c4 on a door lol

For those Titanbros

Pilot Skirmish is the New Featured Game Mode - Pilot Skirmish is an 8v8 mode with no AI and no Titans. Due to the difference in player sizes with the rest of the game modes, Pilot Skirmish will not be among the game modes played when choosing Variety Pack playlist.

I feel like I watched a stream or recording of this or something. Just kept using the pic axe on the wall. Watching that was a funny way to kill some time at work. lol

Weird, the game was fucking CHUGGING during a MUT single player challenge game. Is it hitting servers for those too? It was almost like it was lagging. Garbage.

That happened to me on the first solo challenge. didnt happen on any others.

Damn trust fund babies!

This years Madden has created more GAF leagues than ever!

Wow that PS4 casual league is almost full, didn't see how full the xbone one is. Good sign though for the future of Madden on PS4 for us. Don't think we have to worry about going under 32 players ever.

From the casual madden league thread:

"From Josh Looman:

"Rolled out some fixes yesterday for online leagues:

1. Speed and Hit Power costs have been fixed.
2. Cost of scouting speed for O-Line and D-Line has been fixed.
3. Added a game prep activity all season for XP for anyone on the team.
4. Added the ability to progress Power Moves for OLB and MLB.

We're still looking into simmed stats and H2H results not showing up. I'll update you when I have more info."

While I could have tried the vita, I finally set up my tablet as a second screen device to test coaches glass.

While it's not a game changer, since Madden now provides a lot of info at the play call screen, every now and then there is a useful tidbit.
Also knowing who the offense tries to get the ball to most can help at times.


Also, in playing some of these solo MUT challenges, I've missed like 3 sacks like I did last night against eznark. It's like the players have no agility to change direction or don't even attempt to make an arm tackle. I just run right past the QB

is anyone here really into Madden Ultimate Team?

I had one of those pre-order cards from Target for a dollar, but I ended up buying digitally. I assumed the card would only be valid if you bought the game and they scanned it, but I just tried and it sent me an e-mail with a code.

It's for "$15 value of Madden Ultimate Team content" - I'll PM the first person here that says they want it

this has happened so many times to me

I feel like on both offense and defense, there's no going back to having any bit of control once you hit the sprint button

Anyone actually playing defense from the defensive angle?
I'm just playing O and D from wide angle with all players shown.



keep having an issue of trying a play now game, all Madden is my default setting. It shows all Madden when I start play now, then I go in game and check and it's on rookie.
Wtf is shit.

we should put PSN IDs in OT. If not right beside name, then at least hidden with email code

Yea I got a MUT pre-order code too. Whoever wants it lemme know.
 
A buddy is supposed to be getting me this game as a late b-day present but I'm getting the impression he never ordered it so I'm going to just tell him I'll pick it up tomorrow if he didn't already buy it online. I need to get in some games this weekend to learn to play before our season gets going.

Can someone post the mumble server info?

assuming you already got it since you're logged in, but anyways:

Had a good 18/3/8 riki game, but their team comp was just stronger their ours. Couldn't come back from behind.
Omni knight / enigma / skywrath plus their two carries was a nice wombo

Playing a random in H2H.
Got a pick in the end zone, like right on the goalline and then tackled. Safety.

This game is not winning me over.

That's why I don't play random. Goes for it on forth down every single time. The one time I stop him, it's the pick that ends up a safety in his favor.... And I lose by 2.
Figures.
 
So the bad news is my buddy ordered it right after he read my message so now I won't have it for the weekend... The good news is that he got me the Ultimate Edition and it will still get here early next week. So could someone explain what extra shit I get in the Ultimate Edition? It says something about player packs but I don't know if this is something in-game that benefits me or if it's some stupid virtual card pack that has nothing to do with the main game.

You.... might be relying on the CPU doing your cuts to 53.

Does it just emulate the real life cuts? Will it be much of a disadvantage? I could always rent it if it's that big of a deal.

It'll generally just cut the worst ~17 players on your roster, but if there's a guy you love and really want to keep but his OVR is crappy, you'd have to do it manually.

That probably won't be an issue then but now I can't help but wonder who the lowest rated players on our roster are haha
