I find it hysterical, how you guys think there actually going to take the time to read your input. But, I guess I will give it a shot too.

1) Blocking.. * Need's to be redone in entirety.
( If you want your game to be as realistic as an NFL game, your blocking must improve drastically or be completely redone. How about adding pile-ons??? Especially near the goal line and on 4th and inches. It's seen every sunday, and yet you guys continue to forget/ or don't care to add it!!!! *

2) AI, creates huge problems. EA should be embarrassed for putting out an AI that plays that retarded. But, then again they don't give a f**k!

3) Commentary - a big F U, too ea on this one! There's no way of hiding it EA, you are the biggest cheap.... ( takes a deep breath).. I'll count back from ten on this one

4) Drops- Both offensively and defensively.. I don't care how low there catch rating is, if the ball is headed straight for there chest, 70 % of the time a professional athlete will catch it.

5) Expand the Franchise mode[b] x 29382938283. No reason that all the previous Madden Franchise Mode's were better than the current!

Minor Issues
1) Referees.. debates... endzones, first downs... unreal you really fudged up on this one EA. OVERUSED and irritating

2) Overplayed B-Roll footage. You guys can't take the time to add alternative shots right? We have to see the same thing over and over again each game. The QB on the phone, while at the same time in 32 seconds he has to hike the ball off


* Your not fooling anyone EA

Madden NFL 11, WISHLIST

2) Mouthpiece's, don't seem to have them anymore

3) Add Undershirts (turtlenecks) & The QB cut sleeves are a little shorter than half the arm.

4) Chin straps, there are multiple versions available to NFL players.

5) Knee Braces

6) Face Masks should be a tad bid thicker. Too thin.

this is a joke right?????

AI.. AI.. AI!! Please revamp the AI system for 11. Make this the last year we have this rotten bumbling computer please!

I think that you have the opportunity to revolutionize the American Football gaming franchise by developing an awareness system that pre-recognizes the elite players from the opposition's team and also makes individual adjustments based on the on-the-fly situation changes on O or D. For instance if I'm playing the computer on D and I'm usering Ray Lewis and am obviously lining him up for the blitz I would freak if I saw the line make a list minute adjustment to send their best blocker to get Ray Ray.. wouldn't that be awesome?

My first madden game was madden 2004 I loved it to death. I pushed the power button on on my playstation 2 and a player would say EA SPORTS IF ITS IN THE GAME ITS IN THE GAME. Meaning if it was in the NFL it was on madden 2004. Now they just say its in the game. The option so substitute any player in the game is in the NFL not in madden 2010. If I want to * around and put my center at runing back just for * and gigs that my 66 dollar right. In madden 2004 if you selected to defend the left side at kickoff you kicked towards the other end just like in the NFL. This is not the case in Madden 2010. In madden 2004 if my 59 rated running back ran for 2000 yards he would progress by at least 15 points. In madden 2010 he would not progress by 1 point in any rating column.

EA has shown us they are getting worse and i'm guessing this will continue until another company makes an nfl game.

best game ever made 2004

Game Plan - on 1st down we will man up and dbl the main WR.
2nd & 5 or shorter we want to blitz
2 & 5+ we want to zone with a CB blitz
And in these situations you are given the plays that refer to your gameplan. You can get out of that and choose a normal play or stay in your gameplan.
Same thing for offense

Defensive Backs press cover 1 CB and play off with the other
CB can shade inside or outside of shoulder
Play normal/aggressive/conservative - normal is sticking with him, aggressive is trying to jump a route, conservative will play off him

Offensive Lineman/Blocking create double team blocks, inform lineman of a possible blitz, let your back know who you want him to block

Well I think that EA Sports has really progessed with some aspects of the game like players and coaches on the sideline between plays... the Extra Point is awesome + others

But there are some problems which are still there

1. Referees - sometimes it is just stupid to measure when you know what the result is
2. Draft class - the draft class is always the same and eventually after a while you know who to draft and who not to. There should also be an announcement or cheers like on Playstation
3. More features in the Extra Point like transactions, injuries, analysis of etams, playbooks etc. (i know this one will be hard to do but please try your best)
4. We should have franchise a bit more like real life and Head Coach where you have practice squads, player improvement through training camp, player progession etc
5. More emphasis on commentators - we should have more commentators for different games like Monday Night, Playoffs, Pro Bowl etc. And they need more excited and make more sense
6. AI - The computer is still stupid. thats all I'll say
7. The FGs are quite unbelievable in that how can they kick like three 58 yarders in a row??? the only way they can miss is accuracy
8. Punt returning is so hard becuase I hav 98 speed players being caught by 70 speed linebackers ???
9.Goal line attack needs more work... piles etc.
10. Player moves - i can't jump over any player, i either get tackled or fumble the ball
11. Player contracts are overexaggerated - especially rookies
12. Fix up player equipment and specs
13. PLaybooks need more difference between teams

Head-tracking for every player on the field, no way footballs should be hitting players in the helmet.

In reality they would all see the pass thrown and react, especially if they are in zone facing the QB.

Now the reaction time for players coming from covering another area or anothe rplayer would have to slowed like it is in reality, if you are stride for stride with someone running full speed on a go route, there's no way you ca break from that man and be able to play an out route or corner route by another receiver.

That's basic football and physics. A body in motion stays in motion, there's got to be some momentum in running at full speed.

The entire WR/DB route running-coverage technique needs to re-done yet again, there's no way mediocre NFL CB's go cut for cut with good to great route running WR's on patterns.

Slower CB's should be able to be beaten deep, non AWR CB's should be able to be beaten in their Zones.

The lack of awareness and PRC should show up on the game.

Instead any CB in Cover 3 or Cover 4 can play 2 and 3 men in his area, even if the area is flooded.

That's not real.

Take these LB's dropping 40 and 50 yds downfield with speed off the game.

What OLB can cover a well run Corner/Flag route in the NFL?

Also why don't WR's/TE's sprint to make downfield blocks?
They jog.

The Deep Out route has virtually been taken away.
The Hitch Route for the most part has to be thrown late to be effective. When they've turned all the way around and are facing the ball with the CB behind them just standing there.

What is with RB's who in reality do not run routes out the backfield running exceptional routes?

Brandon Jacobs?

Willie Parker?

They act as if all you need is Speed and RB's will out-run LB's in man coverage.

Why is there so much seperation on a drag route?

Then the deep route has virtually been taken away on the game.

Re-Do the entire Offensive Lineman Pass-block scheme, why is the Center making OL adjustment calls by pointing on the game and they still don't protect against the same Nano-Blitz all game?

Silly stuff.


Why did EASports and the Madden team take Tournament Mode offline and online?
4-team, 8-team, 16-team, and 32-team tournaments was off the chain.

That was one of the best features on the game.

Shouldn't the NCAA Football Draft Class Import automatically be included after the 1st Franchise Season?
I also suggest that they have every Junior who might declare to declare anyway in the Draft Class Import.

Also have them named already.

This Madden series should be the ultimate Football Experience.

Have multiple announcers from every TV Network doing games, the Sunday Night game crew with the NBC music theme, the Monday Night game crew with the classic Hank Williams Jr. theme song, the Fox #1 team of Aikman and Joe Buck with the Fox theme song, CBS #1 Team of Gumbel & Phil Simms with the CBS theme song.

Or in Online games have the Team's real Home Game announcers.

I believe Kevin Harlan does Chiefs games still.

Brian Billick does Redskins games.

I think Pat Summerall still does Cowboys games.

Etc.

Multiple NFL Ref teams.

Why do the crowds for Home Stadiums cheer for the away team?

Shouldn't they be booing every score?

Why not have the specific crowd chants?

Like Fed Ex Field should have Redskins fans saying "Cooooooooooley" every time Chris Cooley catches a pass.

Also saying "Smooooooooooot" every time CB Fred Smoot makes a play.

Please give us multiple options for what we can challenge on a play.

Also why is it that every time we challenge a spot when it is obviously short it is never won?

Bring back Run To Daylight Feature and include OL hot routes.

Why is a post pattern still not in the WR hot routes?

Take off the option to pull a DL off the line before the snap, this has been abused for several years now.
If they do that after the snap that's fine, but there's no way you should be able to take Julius Peppers off the line and 30 yds downfield.

That's BS.

Why should we have to do individual defensive hot routes on someone abusing the same play?

Bring back the default false start penalty for no huddle abusers.

Shouldn't the DL naturally DE contain if the QB continues to roll out wide? Why do they take inside pass-rush moves when they clearly see the QB has been running outside?

Silly stuff.

On hurry-up have the MLB or Defensive Signal caller for each defense make adjustments by gesturing to his defense, you should be able to see these adjustments on the Play Screen.

Why is Man align coverage so jacked up?

If a SS knows he had the RB in the backfield on the far side wouldn't he naturally come closer to have a better angle to cover him?

Same with LB's.

If the Offense calls for Trips right and has 1 WR to the opposite side, why would the Defense that is in Nickel have their LB on 1 of the WR's? Silly stuff.

Take off the option to change your playbook.

You should only be able to use team specific playbooks, that way we all would know the cheesers and cheaters by what team they choose.

Example the NE Coach playbook has the HB Direct Snap this Madden, we all basically know to watch out for this play by the playbook.


Fix the Online Play Now options, we should be able to see our opponents tendacies in Play Now.

This is where all the cheaters go because they know you can't see their stats.

Physics and better player movements if not that, then at least some sort of collision system at least on par with assasins creed or something basic. At least on that game if your running through a crowd of people it feels like your running through a crowd of people. People get knocked around but not on Madden.

I cannot for the life of me figure out how in this day and age Madden still feels like electric football. There is no sense of weight collision or anything when running the ball. The fight for every yard motto is broken because it is done cheesy. All that means is if you have someone like B. Jacobs you will break multiple tackles and there really is no fight involved. The crappy animations never capture a true fight for anything. There needs to be more of a struggle like real football between defenders and runners. The battle in the trenches need to improve dramatically like maybe double teaming a DT like hanynesworth or a dominate Olineman blasting holes open. There are more aspects of fight for the yard that need to be looked at and improved but you need physics to do this.

i dont think they need to redo blocking ai i think they need to give more user control and let us give blocking assignments that way if you get sacked its cuase you are an idiot not because of ai but to do this they would have to remove accelerated clock so we can get time to make these ajustments and hot routes etc.

Ok, much has been said about the mechanics of the game, and rightly too, but I would also like to see less easports branding in their titles. Yes, I know its your game, I've bought it every year since John Madden Football 92 on my Sega Megadrive. I don't need to see the easports logo plastered everywhere, I'm hooked, enuff already! You already have the NFL Network, use their logos.

Where are the crowd chants? Here we go Steelers here we go, J.E.T.S Jets, Jets, Jets, etc. I'd like to see this and more dynamic sound and crowd reaction to game events, not just the monotonous crowd roar and the occasional chorus of boos. BTW, why am I getting booed for a delay of game penalty or for wasting a T.O. when I'm up by 28!?

And where have the cheerleaders gone?

As for the Superbowl celebration, the finale to the world's biggest single-event sports extravaganza watched by a huge global audience...What the hell? Must do better.

Field degradation, Hello!

And fix the audible button which invariably fails to respond in time, causing me to abandon it to avoid a delay of game penalty, whilst the CPU can pull it off in a nano-second...this sucks bigtime!

I know the last 2 can probably be patched but they're on my wishlist because I wish I didn't have to put up with them!

and my biggest wish...a return of the NFL 2K series...nah, only joking, a deeper franchise mode.

That's not to say all is bad, this version is, IMO, the best yet, but some of the gameplay issues and omissions needs addressing in the next instalment...and I can't wait, again,sigh.

HI is it just me or the ball in madden games when thrown , it spins the wrong direction. IF i right hand quaterback throws the football it should spin right lookin from quaterbacks eyes, when u look at madden replay it spins left. If anyone seen this can u confirm i dont know if its just my eyes. FIX get better graphics maybe 1080p madden11

1. A power meter on QB throws, I want to be able to use a touch pass, or other options, not just gun or lob. Players would have to learn how much juice to put on a ball.

2. Better AI D. QBs can't get an unreasonably long time to throw and consistently complete 3rd and long.

3. Disable the nano blitzes where the QB doesn't even make the hand off. Same with all of the junk involved with moving defensive players into odd locations (e.g. unnaturally wide).

4. A more realistic number of penalties.

5. Get rid of the stupid button mashing for fumble recoveries.

6. Custom substitutions for any play in the playbook.

7. Better run blocking with more emphasis on line play and less on stick skill.

8. Related to #2 above, make 3rd and long much more difficult. As a general rule, longer pass plays aren't significantly more difficult than short dump offs.

9. FGs need to be more difficult.

10. Get rid of the accelerated clock.

11. Let the D call their adjustments while the O is still selecting a play, e.g. if I'm going to drop the safeties off in coverage, why should I have to wait? I'd also like to see the personnel that the O has in the huddle, e.g. who is coming out and in.

12. Let me see the exact placement of the ball before I call a play, esp. on short yardage, is it a yard, a foot, a long two, etc.

Bring back the all time teams to choose from with thier rosters, example: 1975 Steelers, 1971 Dolphins, 1968 Jets, 1968 Raiders, 1965 Browns, 1981 Oilers etc. That was a great feature on earlier Madden Games & should be brought back as it would make the game much more enjoyable for people of all ages.
