Icon14 Great and good things about this game.....

I am not trying to be sarcastic in any way. I figure with the patch coming out soon(hopefully today), we could try to add a positive note to the board. For myself I enjoy playing this game at times, but I have held back playing recently while I anxiously wait for the patch.

In a few words, what are some things that you enjoy about this game or would like to commend the developers for that you hope will remain in next years release? I know I may be preparing the way for sarcastic remarks, but hope to have at least a few honest and realistic approvals.

Re: Great and good things about this game.....

Everything positive seems to be counterbalanced by something negative. I absolutely love the running game you can get for you and the CPU with the right levels and sliders. Great animations.

But the passing game is just as bad as the running game is good. The psychic DB's the poor pass trajectory feeding LB'ers interceptions, the very poor animations making 80% of the catches inappropriate behind the receiver basket catches, the lack of DB & receiver fighting for the ball.

I love Teambuilder, conference changes, and BCS Bowl game tie-ins. But after repeated dynasty lockups I'm afraid to use them.

I love OD, but every one I tried locked up and got the server errors taking away my bowl wins.

I do love the many equipment choices and the ability to revise your players attributes and everything but height and weight in franchise. But I hate I can't tweak CPU opponent unis.

I do love the vastly upgraded presentation, that I'll give EA with no offsets. The graphics are very nice, the cut scenes, etc.

This is pretty much a love-hate version.

The biggest game-ruining thing for me gameplay-wise, are the DB's.

I can accept getting picked off if and when I throw into coverage, but I absolutely cannot deal with how the DB's literally morph and go through WR's to make picks. Either they morph or just teleport one animation frame in front of the WR.

It's that's kind of thing that makes me ragequit and not go back.

If you can't rely on what you see on the screen to make your gameplay decisions, then we're just mashing buttons here. It's actually a lot like when you catch bad lag playing Call of Duty online and you get stabbed in the face by someone you didn't even see.

When I put the game in my PS3, it didn't explode, killing my entire family.

That's pretty much the only good thing I could think of.

Re: Great and good things about this game.....

I love this year's game and am hoping the patch makes it even better. I am in no hurry to join any OD's and hardly ever see any of defensive issues everyone talks about so maybe that is why I can enjoy the the game.
