All-Madden against CPU is such BS. The HB never goes down on the first hit.

Edit: Matt Cassel just broke two tackles from two linebackers.

But you're the guy that disconnected every game in 3v3! You've had problems, don't lie!

Played a game on All-Madden against Somnia. It wasn't too bad. I usually play practice on AM anyway so same shit.

My only Q is... Somnia just reminded me guys are still turning on dimes, I thought this new locomotion system was supposed to remedy that?

Somnia worse than CPU confirmed =( :lol

Locomotion gets rid of that stuck in the mud bullshit animation. It doesn't get rid of turning on a dime. It just makes them lean while doing it. :lol

I love Locomotion on offense, still getting used to it on defense in the open field. Gotta learn new pursuit angles.

Have any of you even played a game without lag that wasn't in neighboring counties? I know I haven't. Gonna be real stupid when we're playing and the best kicker has 30 out of 60 XPs.

Me and FMT had little to no lag and we're on opposite ends of the country. The only game I've had crippling lag against was Goldlion, and even then it was playable.

Rors, I actually got on Halo last night and it told me my NAT wasn't open, I'm assuming when the power got knocked off a few days ago it messed with it. I think I fixed it though. :p

edit: Goldlion has Walmart internet confirmed.

I played Ramirez at like 1am PST and 4am his time and it was pretty darn close to lag free!

Yea, me and Luke didn't have any lag either, there was lag on the kicking meter, but I think that's gonna be in every game slightly.

We should try to play sometime, then. I can direct connect now too so I can try that and see what happens.


Bad news: so far, the tie breakers are still wrong and done by alphabetical order... hoping it changes when I advance to playoffs.

Bob and I had very little lag, although I had a weird, fully 1 second delay on a pass and Bob missed an extra point.

I played All-pro all day long (in randoms) then played Bob on All-Madden. There is a significant, absurd difference. We do NOT want to play on All-Pro.

A bit annoying, but gameflow is on by default in online franchise. You can't turn it off. So, you have to press X to get your playbook on every play.

Nope. It's not gamebreaking or anything, but it is annoying as hell especially when you're trying to hurry up and call a play. If you press A, you're fucked. :lol

Ian is doing it to boost the gameflow numbers!

Wellie and I had pretty much zero lag except for the very beginning prior to kick off.

Correction, YOU had a lag free game.

I have yet to have a lag free 1v1 game. This is aggravating, especially with our new kick meter.

Well, he threw up a few that fell at their feet. McRibb would have destroyed those and he would have scrambled better... and shrugged off all those sacks. :D

I wonder if the future they can do shit like the Monday Night Combat guys, where they can tune the fucking game without a patch. That shit is genius and so obvious that I can't believe no one thought of it before.

I'm up for some 3v3 or 1v1 tonight. Who's down?

I'll be good to go around 8pm central time til question marks.
Click to expand...
I'm in! Tired as shit so I don't think I'm going out tonight.

Also, after sleeping on it, if the lag persists past launch week I don't know if I can play in this franchise. It's one thing if I just up and played games, but I don't. On average I spend three hours per league game. If all that prep goes out the window due to missed PATs and FGs, I'd be ready to blow my top after every game. Further, there are other guys that want to use the Giants. I wouldn't want to play, mold the team to what I want, then pass it off to someone else if I get fed up. It'd be like the Texans and the Chiefs rosters of last year :lol

We at least have a good long while before the league starts, I'm confident the issue will get cleared up.










BTW, CB, I hate you. Bartender last night would not shut up about stupid Tiki Barber and how I look like him. I started getting peppered with questions about potentially leaving my future pregnant wife. :|

Yeah the kicking meter is strange, now I understand the issues people have with it. You have to time the kick almost a second ahead or you'll completely miss it.
