Simplest solution is it works laterally and forward. Doesn't work below 180 degrees. Would create balance
I'd argue one of the biggest issues with Madden is the fact that so many people who want to point out issues have some of the worst "solutions" imaginable. The issue isn't Escape Artist, hell even QB Henry isn't the real issue. The issue is that contains don't work, spies (no matter their speed) will get outran and don't react well enough, the defensive AI are utter brainlets, and quarterbacks can constantly throw the ball away while running backwards without penalty. If EA fixed these issues, then everything (in regards to this specific problem) would be fine.
If people want to make the argument that Abilities shouldn't be in the game, then there's at least some merit to that and I'm fine having that conversation (and it's honestly probably one that I agree with), but we have to actually address the issues with the game instead of just wanting to create patches with tissues.
More HRM/Gunsliger QB and people will move on. Henry is the new toy... Favre should solve the problem by himself
Easier solution, use a qb spy and nothing needs to change
Oh please shut up with that. There’s video proof of spies dumbing out while chasing QBs
I’ll stick with my actual playing proof over someone else’s “video proof”. The spy only dumbs out when you send him too early, also known as user error. Keep crying and relying on “contains” and you’ll just keep getting torched 😂😂.
I feel like it should only trigger when the QB comes under pressure. This benefits both the offense and defense.
The QB can’t just roll out under no pressure(what are you escaping from if the pocket is clean) and if he does comes under pressure he has the ability to get away from it better than non-EA Quarterbacks.
