Madden NFL 17 Patch 1.03 Available - Patch Notes Included (PS4, Xbox One)

Just had Wentz move out of pocket almost to sideline and throw deep for completion.
I may be almost ready to start my 32 Team CFM...

Keeping an eye on it.

When are they releasing official patch notes? Patch looks good so far.

Played the Seahawks and it didn't freeze this time. Nothing really seemed much different. I noticed some more atrocious OL AI but I don't think it's indicitive of anything to do with the patch. I did see this though:

Have to play more but I've played Wilson, Mariota, and Kaepernick pre-patch and through the probably 30+ games I'd played had only seen a scramble like that one time and it was by Derek Carr. Outside of that one play though Wilson was a statue for the entire game so it could have just been a flukey thing.

What about a patch for the 32 team CFM ticker bug?

John White said this is working as designed on Twitter, but they are looking into possibly making an option.

We have posted some of the details below, official patch notes will be posted as soon as we get them. Let us know what you're seeing! Fixed in this patch: Pre-snap glitch where you could tell a pass/run by whether the receivers had a name listed or not Fixed a bug with prematurely showed incoming rookie ratings in franchise mode White against white jerseys appearing in Head to Head games Freezing during MUT Solos should be fixed The Force Defender was tuned to lower effectiveness on outside runs Blocker occasionally not blocking in the hurry up offense Strip Tackle attempts by the CPU were reduced (Percentages were tuned in recent Gameplay Tuner) A desync issue with Play Action passes where the QB would either lose passing icons or could not move has been fixed. This fix should also affect CPU QBs not scrambling. Defenders will now slow down when their stamina is depleted

I have a question related to the last point regarding defenders slowing down when stamina is depleted. Will this affect the offense as well? If not, we will see folks spamming "No Huddle" online from start to end. They already do that and it will make the problem worse.

IMO EA should build some sort of logic which punished "No Huddle" spammers. If folks go with "No Huddle" offense outside of the final 2 mins, players on offense should lose their stamina much more than the defensive players or they should drop the ball a lot more. This will force people not to use "No Huddle" offense throughout.

This was a specific bug on defense. When stamina was depleted defenders would not see a stamina penalty and slow down. Now they will.
