I’ll play rock, paper, scissors by myself before I touch another Madden.

Dude madden is so bad with no user skill needed. My mom can literally get on madden and compete as long as she knows 2-3 glitch plays and a blitz set up. It’s putrid.

@kingakp_xbl said in Cleveland Gaurdians:

This isn't really cancel culture IMO. It was time. Some of those other teams have the blessing to use the name and likeness that they do. The broad term Indians isn't really appreciated by Native Americans. Its time they change it. Same with the Redskins. I realize most Americans have no real idea what our indigenous people have went through over the years and thats ok, but acting like their opinions or voices don't matter is simply racism. I think its good that Cleveland has decided to move away from that name. Its out of respect, not cancel culture.

I don’t see how y’all don’t understand this.

@elmexicano281 said in Hitting is awful:

Why has hitting been so garbage lately?? It's not even fun to play anymore ... I get the RNG and all that but it's just awful right now .... hitting balls dead on all warning track ... I don't expect a hr everytime but throw some ground balls for fucks sake . Where's there some secret hitting update or some [censored] I wasn't aware about ?

No, here's the problem with you casuals...you don't put the time in to practice. Why is it that I'm playing on Legend hitting and pitching at maxed out pitch speed but you're having trouble with the game and I'm not?. Its cause you suck!! you suck because you haven't put the time in...If you want to get good at something put the time in and get gut..don't get all pansy and wallmart Karen on the froum....get your S(^& together and practice casual.

Ahh yes, the person that doesn’t know that The Show isn’t the center of everyone life has emerged.

Dude I know the feels. I started playing this passed Nov. and couldn’t read a pitch or hit to save my life. It was super frustrating, but I knew that it was going to take a while before I got decent. With practice in RS/ other online modes, grinding moments/showdown, and just taking into consideration the situation and count, I have become a pretty solid hitter and rarely swing at balls.

You aren’t going to hop on a new game and be great, while people have been playing for 10-20 years.

I think The Show has very sub par gameplay, but madden is the worst sports game easily. Literally no user skill required. Just choose 1 of 3-5 glitch plays on offense and a broken 3- 4 man blitz on defense since madden 13.

Taking a break from DD since online play is just both teams pitching a no hitter through 8-9 innings until a ball outside the PCI goes for a walk off in the 9th… to my surprise RTTS is extremely broken lol

• The program doesn’t track. I just found out about turning missions on (what’s the point of having the option to have it off lol) but people are saying it’s still not tracking (about to play my first game after turning it on, so I’ll find out shortly).

• It never shows your overall with your perks and equipment. Why?

• It randomly takes off my players equipment. I don’t even notice until I see he’s not wearing it in game.

• I swapped gold hitting perks with diamond hitting perks, and my overalls went from 70-64 LMAO

I was literally ecstatic that the show came to Xbox this year, but it seems just as broken as EA games and CyberPunk. Pretty bummed out.

Every pitch doting corners and the black is tiresome asf; along with being able to foul off balls placed in the other batters box.

The content is great and I want to play; but as soon as my fielder misses a tag, a player with 20 bunt lays down a bunt with the ball outside the zone, or someone hits a no PCI HR against me, I’m reminded why the gameplay makes the game not so fun.

I’ve had this same issue. I’m guessing they want you to input more user control or something because last year was bad and this year is even worse. So many times I’ve had a man on 3rd stay unless I move him with a hit to the gap lmao

@thewooderboy__psn said in Online Rated so shameful:

I’m already sick of playing Toronto too. I’m from Philly so I naturally only use the Phillies but it gets boring playing the same 5 teams over and over again.

Try playing fifa seasons. You only play against one team which is PSG lol

I got 24 with 99 Lefty. I was def going for it though.

@apolloz_99_psn said in Any madden fans came back yet?:

Y’all stay crying about madden like [censored] shut up

I don’t think it’s considered “crying” if the game is actually released unfinished. They sell a game that’s not even at beta stages when you got cars/houses on the field, winning games and counted as losses, can’t even finish face of the franchise due to the team not being on the field, and a ton of other game breaking glitches.

@el-fiama-bianca_xbl said in Circle swings are back:

I have been hovering between 750-850 in Ranked Seasons now for a week. I don't know if it's the difficulty level or what (i dont think it is). But I get at least 8 "good" swings with the ball someone center PCI (the darker yellow circle) and they are lazy pop outs. Every single time.....

This seems to be the norm in this game. Bottom line is you don't feel rewarded for your input.

Facts. I turned the game off only needing a few wins to reach 20 in the event yesterday because, I’m hitting the ball flush in the middle of the PCI/good timing for pop outs while my opponent is no doubting non PCI contacts/good-late timing. We both had the same type of players (all 99 batters and around 90s pitchers).

Madden 20 was my last one. It should have been 18, but they abilities/Xfactor intrigued me to give them free money one more time. Never again buying another madden no matter what. Every year becomes a new low.

Madden 22 currently sitting at 0.5/10 on Metacritic, 1.5/5 on GameStop, 27% on google user reviews, IGN gave it a 6 (which is a really bad score for them), and endless videos of glitches. My favs have been the ones where there are cars/houses on the field, winning a game in franchise but receiving a loss, and QBs racking up tackles and sacks in simulated games.

Releasing a severely unfinished game annually has to have some sort of repercussions eventually doesn’t it?

So the supposed patch to fix what they didn’t want did nothing, and only limited players who just enjoy playing the game? Do I have that right?

It very obviously hasn't done "nothing", a whole one sold. There would be way more then that now. Just to be clear I'm very against the XP cap, but your comment is very clearly hyperbole

I thought that method was the pitching glitch to get XP to finish the inning quickly. I’d it not?

I Bunt , it was my first game of the week. He quit!

Do you think you bet him with your skill?

My player skill , yes for sure

It’s a problem you think that.

The first time I pitched a game with Vida he gave up like 6 runs in 2 innings, so I insta-sold him.
