Madden NFL 10 Blog: 2nd Title Update Preliminary Details

Check out the Madden NFL 10 blog, which talks about the preliminary details of the 2nd title update.

Quote:


	"In this second title update we focused on some of the more debated topics from our loyal and passionate fan base. We appreciate all the feedback so please keep it coming! In this update you will be happy to hear that we have tuned our Flat Zone assignments to cover the flats more effectively. Defenders will not chuck a WR if another receiver is running a route towards their zone. This will help the defender be in better position to react to a quickly throw flat route and allow him to make a play. The flat zone defenders will also play the ball better if a pass is thrown behind the line of scrimmage as well as taking better pursuit angles after the catch to prevent the ball carrier from being able to get around the corner. This has been one of the top complaints that we have heard about and realized it was definitely something that we needed to address."

I think I know the answer, but for the MOST important question ....

**Do we have to restart franchises for this next patch update to take effect???

PLEASE answer this question asap to eliminate the multiple posts that will occur asking this same question ...

Thanks!

Strangely enough, yes I do.

Now on to the matter at hand. I guess I shouldn't be too surprised I saw nothing regarding the ratings issue on the oline/dline. It's the issue where a 25 rated olineman can dominate a 99 rated dlineman consistently. Or an entire oline of 12 rated chumps push around a dline of 99 rated studs and Albert Haynsworth not begin able to shed the block of a punter who was placed on the line. I'll just have to chalk this omission up to the "it's a lot of work" department. Ian, please make this a priority for Madden 2011. See the this thread for details:

sounds good. This will be a good update for the game when it finally comes out. I am interested to see what the other stuff they fixed is.

The biggies I see missing are:
CPU offensive playcalling issues - lack of urgency inside 2 minutes, etc....
CPU defensive playcalling imbalance - way too many blitzes.
Punting from strange spots - inside my 25-yard line.

Glad the flats will be fixed.

Maybe CPU playcalling is something that can't be fixed with a patch.
