    yeah psu they don't always line up right you'll end up with a safety lined up on the slot and slot cb lined up on te .. especially in no huddle

    oh tino sucks for pitt can't make deep passes to save his life. i also saw last night possible progressive injuries. i hurt cincy rb with a broken finger he came back in then sprain his wrist then i broke it . so that was cool i hope its like that during season injuries too.

    Screens are an area where psuexv and I Talked last night. A QB will allow the defenders in real life to get real close maybe even make contact yet they are still able to flip, toss the ball out to the HB however again with 13 the QB either eats the ball or throws it 3 feet.

    The outside containment really needs improved. Like E mentioned, that DB had zero reason to choose the HB since he had already delayed his decision and he should have kept with the QB. This happens on blitzes as well and should really be looked at.

    I agree that Heisman plays the best for me at least through my many season ticket and now the actual game too. Just feels smooth and fluid and not crazy like years past.

    Absolutely, I forgot about screens. Also the lineman don't even touch the rush at all. They immediately break into the screen passing scheme thus giving the QB very little time. In real life you rarely see a QB get sacked on a screen play.

    Next time you do a screen, try slide protecting the line in the opposite direction of the screen. If I remember correctly, to get them to actually block for a second, I would do that in '12.

    I liked how I had a DL peel off to play the CPU HB on a screen pass, and he ended up knocking the pass down when he raised his arms when the CPU HB went to catch the pass. Looked pretty good, i.e. the kind-of-face-guarding way that real DL will play a HB screen. I should have captured video on it.

    Hitting receivers in stride on deep balls is beautiful, looks more fluid than in years past.

    I hate the way defense plays now. It's so stiff, can't even user anything like I used to. Players don't react with swats on strafes anymore. smh, all bad. The longevity of a game comes with gameplay, not with these ridiculous modes that I never play to begin with. Then, when I actually want to play it, I can't because the gameplay is bad.

    Are you talking about the cheese where guys would strafe all over the field, changing directions and never losing any speed, all while holding the swat button to have the cpu auto-swat for them?

    If so, I'm glad that shit is gone.

    Remember you could do that change of direction in Madden 2-3 versions back. Where you could be running full sprint towards one side of the field, then completely reverse field instantly keeping your speed.

    Telling EA isn't "hyping" up their reviews this year. In fact, other than IGN I don't think I have seen a "mass" publication/website reviewing the game this year.

    GameSpot and Joystiq did reviews. They weren't pretty.

    Of course, these #s are always "subjective" a 75 for some is a 60 for others. The only thing Metacritic is good for is comparing a game within the universe of rules as it gives you a framework.

    Looks like 12 received an 82 and 13 is currently sitting at 75 meaning 13 is viewed by most as a regression and not an improvement.

    Agreed. People who love to user love that shit and usually did cheese, even though they claim they don't.

    I dont think he means that? until you reload the tuner, you cant swat at all-period.

    I've never heard of anyone ever holding the swat button while running all over the field and it has nothing to do with what Hitstick is talking about. What he's talking about is exactly what he said - the animations are so stiff that it's impossible to user defend anything. I guess that's a good thing for the people who let the CPU do everything, but for those of whom who actually like to make user plays on the ball, it kind of sucks.

    It's not just defensively, either...the entire game as a whole feels much more sluggish than '12. It has the running in quicksand feeling, at least online.

    I don't even understand what you mean by calling user defense "cheese." That makes no sense.

    This may be why it's almost impossible for me to user catch passes.

    WTF? I've already pulled down two user picks in 3 Play Now games on Heisman, what is this about not being able to? Just swat doesn't work?
