[quote=Mattyk;829121]I must really suck then, I lost 3 of my first 4 games. The computer is no joke this year, coverage is tighter than ever, DBs jump routes like crazy, and you will pay for making bad passes. No more completing passes with a DB standing right there like nothing is happening. They'll jump the route and pick it off.[/quote]

It is pretty ridiculous. I usually tweak the difficulty ratings to a reasonable level. I like a challenge, but for instance I played against Arizona, and I felt like I was playing the All-Madden defensive team.

Also, why are the first two Redskins games in the rain? It's kinda crazy.

Good ol screen play can't be counted on as a sure thing anymote in All-Pro. I like.

Re: Madden 2012
 

you need to activate the online pass to get the rosters, i believe. Anyone else having a hell of a time running for more than 3-4 yds? Also, can't get off a block with Rak or Kerrigan to save my life.

I seem to be getting the hang of it now. I reset my franchise once I realized updated rosters were available, now 4-1. Playing on All-Pro.

Play action is still as useless as ever. Wish they fixed that.

That rain crap is annoying.

I think once I get the hang of it, I will go back to All-Pro.

Re: Madden 2012
 

2-0 so far, traded a 4th in 2013 for Colin Kaepernick along with sending a 2nd to KC for Dexter McCluster. Kerrigan has been a monster for me in the first 2 games with 3 sacks.

I had to kick it back down to Pro too. I started out ok, but went downhill all of a sudden. I started throwing 2-3 picks a game. Couldn't run either.

I would recommend adjusting your settings in the "My Madden" menu. Set it to All-Pro, and then under "Player Skills" you can set your ratings a bit more favorable for you (i.e. QB accuracy, pass protection, etc., etc.). I hate playing in the Pro level b/c it is wayyy to easy It's like there's a big difference between Pro (super easy) and All-Pro (very hard). They need an in-between setting.

Yeah I'm gonna have to do that. Pro level is definitely too easy. With some good slider settings you can actually make the game fun yet competitive.

I have been thinking that for years! I will be killing it in Pro like winning by 30 points then switch to all pro and get crushed. It has been this way for many years.

I love using the Redskins online. Helu, and Hightower kill it for me.
