    whoa whoa whoa. I think you called out the wrong Lank on page 1 homey. I ran like 10 roll outs total in user games in M15 and they were all against GBG in the NFC Divisional round game where I had that silly comeback

    Rule #3 shouldn't be a problem with this many users :twocents: if someone is abusing you with a WR then double them up.

    Fancy, feels official.

    Good chance I'm going to the Saints preseason game Sunday, would put me home around 8..830 best time zone (cst) maybe? Would be good to go anytime after that- if it starts a little early can I join late, how does that work

    Fun game so far. Please EA tweak the WR streaks with aggressive catches for the sake of this league.

    Invites have been sent to the half or so of you who have the game already. Won't let me send invites until the rest of you have booted up the game once.

    I only played one game last night, but I think it feels very different. I couldn't get a run game going at all, but I also had a hard time stopping Matt Forte, so that was probably my fault. The game seemed to really really drag on. I don't know if it is the animations between snaps or what, but it felt like I was playing for an eternity. That being said, I'm undefeated and will likely roll through this league.

    Also, was there any talk about upping the qtrs? I think last year we were at 7 mins, but I honestly don't think that is necessary this year. Games will take forever. At 6 mins online the score was 36-28, I think that is plenty of time to have realistic stats etc. Then again I only played one game so you guys may have had different opinions.

    I agree that it seemed to drag on. May have been due to my multitude of incomplete passes though. They've also kind of fixed the 0 1 Trap issue.

    @pastapadre: Now EA is even saying it - you shouldn't start your Madden 16 Franchise until after the patch comes to fix all the issues.

    No problem with the run game using the steelers last night Sean Connery and I both had around 100 yards rushing in our game.

    The animations definitely make the game take twice as long. is there a way to get rid of them for our franchise Nelson

    I started a franchise and cpu teams have been releasing all their rookies. Guys like Abdullah, Coleman, etc lol

    And many of them disappear completely as soon as they're released since there's a limit apparently on how many players can be in free agency.

    That's lame as hell. Even fucking madden '99 on pc kept every single free agent in the system no matter how low a rating.

    Madden 15 was kinda screwy with CPU teams releasing rookies, too. Devonta Freeman and Deone Buchannon come to mind

    Same.

    Gameplay has been amazing for me.

    My issue is with all the bullshit roster moves and a lot of important players (almost all rookies) being completely deleted from the game.

    What happens is that when teams break the huddle there will be a defender behind/in the offensive huddle and when they go to lineup he bumps into an offensive player for encroachment.
