Im curious what everyones depth chart looks like. I put telvin smith #2 at every LB spot. Toby is so slow im starting Drob and keeping majority of my runs outside left because our line is garbage. Ace and Todman are my returners and of course Bortles starting

Quote:our players ratings are trash

I think they tried to bring it down from last year as most of the rookies arent as high as the rookies tend to have been rated the previous year.

 

I was still able to pull out a win with my first try on all pro level, I should bump it up one though.

Ive found running with Storm Johnson difficult at first but now he's like a speedy little dagger for extra yards up the middle between the giants clashing... more effective with him than I am with Toby on most plays.

I also find Allen Robinson more effective than Marquise Lee in the game, and he tends to be my go to guy for the sure catch on short yardage.

For those who already have the game, I'm just wondering, has EA Sports fixed the game difficulty against the CPU?

 

I haven't had Madden for a few years, but I hated how easy a game was even when I'd be playing on All-Madden. I mean, passing was kind of the only difficult thing. But running the ball and defense was super easy.

I have a ps4,but will be playing against the computer mostly.  You have to pay more money to play games online with playstation, and xbox. That is the one thing Nintendo has adventage in still is their online game play is free,but no sports games, and not many games to play online now either. I just had to get a Madden game with our new logo, plus I really really want wwe2k with Sting in it.

Telvin Smith is the 3rd fastest LB in the game but also has the highest acceleration of any LB in the game outside of Aldon Smith.

 

I find him pretty useful at MLB. I like Poz, but he's just too slow to cover TEs.

From what I've seen, defense is remarkably easy, way too many sacks on All-Pro. Haven't tried All-Madden yet.

 

Passing timing is a lot more challenging than in years past in my opinion, but a lot more fun and rewarding, something as simple as throwing a curl to Shorts and timing it just right when the corner breaks late, is one of the most satisfying things I've ever done in Madden, actually. 

 

Running is a lot more realistic, at least the numbers I usually put up with Gerhart are something like 16 for 66 and maybe a touchdown. 

 

I also don't envision too many blowouts, but I am also not the best madden player, so take all this with a grain of salt. Very big upgrade from last year and years past and the playing as a defensive lineman like Marks is also a really cool feature. Definitely worth the money this year.

I been experimenting with routes and players. I get alot out of Lee from the slot on slants and AllenRob on curls is pretty unstoppable

I am hoping Toby shows some speed before the first update because he is SLOW. Madden racist ratings lol

does anyone here have the ps4,and Madden 15 besides me?

When playing Ultimate Madden (The fantasy card game portion of the game) I found the Jaguars players to be rated really low in the base set.  I assembled as many Jaguars as I could via the auction and played the solo challenges to gain more coins for sets to eventually get better Jaguar players (elite cards).  The solo challanges on All-Madden level have been way too easy especially in the preseason portion under quick mode I find myself scoring 28-0 on most games with Blake Bortles 69 rated overall base set card, Toddman (60s) since he plays better than Toby Gerhart in the game as my RB and mainly throwing to Lee on slants when not rushing up the middle with Toddman.


On the regular solo challenge I always win but you have to get a gold badge (which the badges are new this year) in order to complete the set.  The Gold Badges are up to 7000 coins so it takes awhile to get the good cards.  You need the elite badges to get the really good cards.  Either way a huge improvement from the Xbox 1, Madden 25 which wasnt really designed for the system.  I still think next years will be even better as they have more time to concept for the system, but if you love Madden like I do you wont be disappointed.

Agreed, I have gotten pretty good with my current fantasy team (Ultimate mode).  I have Bortles (69 rating) throwing to Lee (66? I think) on slants, Robinson (63) on curls and Justin Blackmon (80) on a combination of the two. I use Ace Sanders for deep passes.   I just won Cecil Shorts so he'll probably take Ace's place on deeps or have them on each side.  I mainly find my offense effective thanks to Toddman up the middle (60 something rated) I dont know why but he plays really good in the game.. until the next update i guess.

Thanks for the input.

 

I don't really plan on getting Madden this year. I plan on getting a PS4 early next year (in case they make some changes to the console around the holidays) and getting by with CoD and MLB The Show until next year's Madden and other EA games.

Im on ps4 C_INTELL

Yeah I would think that Madden 2016 will be awesome since they've already improved a lot in Madden15 from the previous years one... ( though I buy madden every year... game stop will buy back your old maddens).
