Lonestar said:Look at Smokey, going for it on 4th down twice!
SIIIIIIIIIIIMMMMMM :lol
Can't...only in game.LJ11 said:How do you join from your PC? I'm on the site, found the Neogaf franchise, but it's set to private and gives me no option to enter a password.
Smokey said:uh..i was down by a touchdown with less than 4 - 5 minutes to go w/ that accelerated clock shit on which makes it go even faster. it's not like it was 4th and 7 or some shit. Both of them were 4th and 2 or 3 in his territory, so i'd appreciate it if you didn't try and call me out on something you don't know about.
thanks
and the op doesn't say anything about 4th down rules yet so i used my judgement to decide if it was ok or not. so :lol :lol :lol away.

C'mon, Lonestar, you know Maddens is serious business!Lonestar said:the exagerrated "SIIIIIIIIIMM :lol" is still not enough to show a jovial prodding?
I think it will take at least 2 weeks for everyone to get signed in, so I doubt it.AirBrian said:Are we still planning on advancing on Wednesdays and Saturdays?
AirBrian said:Ramirez, when can you play? I'll be ready sometime around 8 PM (CDT) tonight if you're around.

[edit] Maybe it's not so bad. 23 teams have signed in. Teams that haven't yet:
Titans
Steelers
Texans
Chiefs
Jaguars
Seahawks
Cardinals
Bills
2nd Quarter it started thundering (raining before), and lightning came and power went off.daw840 said:Striker. What happened? That was actually a really good game.

AP goes out, and Brady Quinn got hurt too, but both for only a couple plays. :lol :\daw840 said:Ah, I will be around for most of tonight. Probably going to bed around 10:30pm CST. So, if your power comes back on, let me know.
And yes, those injuries in the first quarter were fucking ridiculous. My heart sank when AP got injured on the first play.`

Wellington said:I've never felt so betrayed by my offense! The most telling stat - Livewire did not have a first down until the five minutes left in the third quarter! But what can I say, this is exactly what I wanted - the whole non-robo QB.
I just don't get it. All "Preseason" I tear guys up through the air, including my opponent today. All of a sudden Eli decides to stink it up. Twice in Redskin territory he threw bogus passes that were picked off.
Exhibit A. Eli throws up a duck to no one in particular (Neither Giant receiver is in position to make a play). Just a soft lob up the middle when I was looking to hit my tight end underneath.
Exhibit B. My 91 rated C wants to attack the second level, leaving me short staffed along the line for the fake FB handoff.
Exhibit C. The pass was intended for Boss, who was a good 4-5 yards away from where the ball went. Way behind him. That one was mindboggling.
This all just means my defense has to be EXTRA shutdown the rest of the season.
FYI, before hopping into a game, check your depth chart. Some things were screwy.
Lessons have been learned, corrections will be made. Time to open up Texas Stadium 2.0.
Ramirez said:Well, I checked my depth chart after my game just now and everything was right, but during the game they had Polamalu playing ROLB pretty much all game and William Gay at Safety. I actually didn't notice until about half way through. :lol I hope this isn't a bug...
I had Nicks at my #2 instead of slot. Kiwanuka was at DT on all plays instead of Canty (Wtf?). Hixon returned KOs and Bradshaw returned punts, which should be flipped. Dunno what happened, but I was not too happy when I noticed it was Kiwi the whole time there.Ramirez said:Well, I checked my depth chart after my game just now and everything was right, but during the game they had Polamalu playing ROLB pretty much all game and William Gay at Safety.

1st an update:
The good news is they have fixed the issue of missing stats. All of my stats that were missing on offense are now showing. Hopefully that does it and we won't see the issue again.
I think the problem of entire user vs. user games not being recorded may have well been an issue with only my franchise since it appears I was the only one reporting that issue. I've started up a new franchise for testing for my 32 man league and hopefully we won't have any more issues. Right now LD is drifting farther and farther away and i am very impressed with how well they've been hammering these bugs out.
The bad news, I have noticed that a lot of the offensive stats that are reporting are not being added to the player's total stats correctly. I looked at a few and I think the ones not reporting may be the same stats that are listed under the wrong team on the website. Hopefully that may be the case and we can get another relatively easy fix in.
Hey bgdave, I sent you a pm message, and is there any way we can ask these developers to add the option for gameplay speed on the online franchise.
They know people want this and i am pretty sure they will look at adding th option for slow speed after they get through some of the bugs. I assure you theyare aware though, just bigger fish to fry first.
Can we also find out why there are so many bugs when the EA team played in at least one season of online franchise before release?
Regardless of what a lot of guys may believe, EA and its devs had a pretty big challenge in getting this thing up and running and I think they were pretty crunched on time. They probably ran through their tests pretty quickly towards the end of the dev cycle and I am pretty sure a lot of their testing was after the game was finalized. Hard for 21 or so guys to find the same stuff that 2 million do. Those 2 million do more in 10 mins than the dev team could do in a month as far as testing.
And isn't there an issue with the college drafts turning out in the same order each time?
Please expand. I haven't made it all the way through to the draft since we've been actually playing a lot of the games to test possible settings for realism for our league. I haven't seen anyone else say anything about this yet. What's the issue?
No one ever wins at this game.Jarate said:I think i might ragequit this game, every fucking single game i've played i've been screwed over multiple times. This game is totally luck and defeats the whole purpose of a football game. There should be no fucking reason for me to lose at all, yet I lose. WTF, I can see maybe once or twice I get a little unlucky, but no, I just get screwed over time and time again. Fuck this shit, i'll go play some Tecmo Superbowl, where at least there when the computer is cheap, i can just zig zag instead of getting screwed over constantly
They don't have all my WRs in... among other things...LJ11 said:I signed up, thought you guys were playing preseason games with all the roster resetting talk, but I was dead wrong.
So what's the deal, we have to reorder them at half even if I set my depth chart in the options menu?
EA does a horrible job with removing/adding players on rosters. They removed two guys I wanted to use in some capacity, they've been on the team since last season, just to add a couple of off the street players that are currently on the Bills roster because of minor injuries.
Lonestar, let me know what works best for you.
