Gaming Madden 10

Try them in practice mode. Set up the offense to have an outside rush, and choose those plays I suggested and see how it goes.

 

[smiths]

works like a charm thanks.

urgh roster updates: McNabb and Westbrook went down 3 points each :/ Weaver and Celek didn't rise I thought they would've.

Desean is ridiculously good because of his speed....

Desean is ridiculously good because of his speed....

He is one of the best WR's in the NFL today he should have a higher rating of about 4-5 points imo.

 

[Southerntakeover]

Overall ratings dont really matter, its all about the skill set.

His speed + his catching = dangerous bloody weapon.

For example Vick - the most overused QB in the game at a meer 73 overall.

 

[smiths]

I am hopeful Vick stays with the Eagles next season purely for the enjoyment of using him in Madden 11, heard it is going to be a revolutionary game so fingers crossed!

 

[DaSawx]

heard it is going to be a revolutionary game so fingers crossed!

in what regards?

just some improvements to career mode and franchise mode will do me, some more AI tweaking and some better commentary too maybe

No idea, but read an EA article which reported of their 2009 losses so one of their games designers was quoted as saying the 2011 games would be "revolutionary". Sounds like more than just improvements to the current game modes.

Is anyone running an Xbox 360 Online Franchise league i can join? If not ill start one, not going to try to fill every team, just people will come and go as they please, probably advance twice or so a week.

Join this EA site, click the console you own (X360), and you'll be able to scan thru billions of online franchises, looking for people to join, seeing how many are in it, what their rules are, etc.

[Mordikai]

yea dude, ive been playing with Americans and its too hard to schedual games to play with them.... so most of the lagues on the EA site are Americans.... im looking for all Aussies

 

[Exe Gesis]

There's a forum ive heard of called OCAU, where a lot of aussies schedule xbox and ps3 online franchises. I dont know the web-link, but type OCAU into google and you'll find it.

Check out this place - http://maddenleague.myfastforum.org/

I remember they came onto our PS3 Franchise Forum and asked if anyone wanted to join. It is an XBOX league, and apparently been running for 4 years

Hey guys, not here to spam in any way shape or form.

Just wanted to let you know that we have been running an online Madden league on the Xbox 360 format for the past 4 years or so. We started out through the LeagueDaddy website and now use the Online Franchise option available to us through Madden10.

We are currently running a league with 24 aussie players competing each week (most of those long term gamers with us)

We have regularly provided prizes to Superbowl participants, MVP's etc. (normally authentic NFL jersey's) and I think some NFL video's & memorabilia to give away this season.

Cannot vouch for the quality or anything like that, but hope it sends you in the right direction

 

[Exe Gesis]

Thanks for posting that, sblack.

Tho, if Mordikai was to think about it, he'd be better off buying a ps3 (bluray, region-free games, free online) and join a really good ps3 aussie franchise league that's out there

 

[sblack]

Yeah, sell the Micro$oft money box and get a real mans console

 

[Exe Gesis]

indeed. plus that league is kick-ass, it consumes me.

 

[jd2006]

The one thing I wish they would fix is when you relocate a franchise to a city and the commentators continue to call it the home team.

Cant they create generic cities that the teams have to play so they can call them that. They do it with the nicknames and the states. Which gets me on to my other gripe with this, why cant they just call the team by the nickname.

 

[smiths]

Reading this board always makes me feel like playing some madden.

Just started an offline franchise on all-pro. So far got 2 good wins using Philly against Carolina and NO. I traded to get Tatupu from the Seahawks, already has 2 interceptions in 2 games.

 

[Southerntakeover]

One thing id like to see fixed is the retirement age of players in franchise mode.

Running backs simply stay around too long. In real like most of them hit the wall at 30, yet in my franchise mode i see top numbers being put up by 35 year old backs. I tend to draft replacements for studs early, then get very frustrated when the older guys never actually retire and im forced to offload them, leaving their 'hall of fame' card with another team.

 

[crownie]

got this game a few days ago, still trying to get use to it as im finding the movement of players a bit different after playing lots of Madden 09, is it just me all are all the rankings (espically team) are down on what they were in madden 09?

Hinting that youve got one i guess.

Why arent i in on this.

It would be tough now. We're in Week 12, so most CPU teams are already out of Playoff contention. But you can always join for some tough competition and practice. Some good teams available ... Titans, Vikes, Hawks ... Next season you are always welcome though.

Hit GG, or myself a PM and we'll send you in the right direction if you want

 

[Exe Gesis]

I'll PM the commish of the league and ask for your admittance.
$10 to join tho, with season in week 12 now. You wanna leave it till next season or still wanna join and finish it out?

 

[Exe Gesis]

If you were interested, a good team to pick imo would be the CPU controlled Vikings. They're stacked with talent and are 0-10 or whatever this season, so should have a top 2 first round pick and you will get an excellent QB for our draft happening which is needed for that team.

You could think about joining now and therefore getting acquainted with the league, the roster, and getting ready for the draft.
