Quote from aresdx >> I get there will be glitchy plays and people will abuse them but maybe EA could’ve eliminated crap like Longshot and put more focus on making H2H actually competitive rather than a glitch fest.  That's what I thought.  I played through both Longshot's now....  I do admit, I do love a good 'ole Cruise Missile here and there, but the stories were so insanely predictable, along with various lengthy/unskipable cut-scenes and limited and rookie difficulty gameplay.  I saw what they were going for, but they have to realize that shouldn't be a priority when little glitches are still getting into the game.  For an example, when you retry a solo challenge after failing it, all the timeouts are gone.  Small things from graphical errors to gameplay mechanics could and would be in better shape with the removal of the Longshot series.

Quote from squatnbear >> Welcome to every game ever.   Top tier guys should be drooling for cheese heads.  There’s always a way to stop it, exposing them as a one trick pony.  I do understand your frustration though as fake screen has cost me a few games now. Playing sticks seems to stop it just have to be aware.  I'm realizing that this is every game now...I just felt like with other years, it was never this bad, it had never hit this extent.  But I guess with all the exposure these plays get, whether youtubers, or myself to ran into 20 guys running it, it disappoints me.

Quote from xLegionOfBoom31 >> It's a video game ffs lol You're right.  A video game I no longer enjoy as much as I did, and as this video game has helped me in my life remove stress and take my mind off things, I take the well-being of the game and the community seriously, as I'm sure the impact of the game has done a lot for others as well.  All I'm doing is sharing my opinions on the game.  I made one post, my first one actually, and it got over 200 replies now.  I didn't ask for that, nor did I want it, but I wanted others to read my thread and see if they agreed or disagreed with me.  Instead I've gotten a majority of negative and off topic comments in which I feel the need to respond to many, if not all, replies to my comment.  So if I'm taking this too seriously for you, maybe this isn't the forum to you.  Sorry to disappoint.

Quote from PScrabro >> I think the best answer to these plays is to penalize the people calling them over and over. Should make the cpu defense guess and play tougher after seeing it over and over. I like some of the plays called cheese, but I call them once or twice a game... I like to run a full offensive playbook, although it doesn't help get more wins... it is more fun. I wish in competitive modes there was something to make people run various plays instead of 2 or 3 offensive plays all game long... the repetitive stuff is what makes it boring for me.  Amen brother

Quote from jimgrady >> What is a "nanoBlitz"? It's rarely used, if even possible, this year.  But in previous years of madden, people were able to figure out blitzes so strong, so quickly that no matter what play you called, you would be sacked/hit behind the line of scrimmage unless you were in a gun formation.  If you searched it on youtube you could find many tutorials on how to do it from years ago on previous maddens.  The community named it a 'Nano Blitz', and it stayed for the whole year in some instances.

Quote from Skernals >> This is nothing new it's been like this every year. WL is the worst just play regular seasons and you'll rarely run into that.  Most of the 20 games I had described were actually regular seasons.  That's what blew my mind.  I even tried an unranked online game with the Dallas Cowboys and went up against it.  It plagued everywhere for me.  Maybe I just had some bad luck, but I couldn't believe it

Quote from Vex8869 >> Okay let me start by saying I feel you an used to feel that way too but YOU need to understand people play this game for MILLIONS of dollars in Tournaments. To get to those Tourneys you gotta win consistently. People will murder for money an fame you think they won’t cheat a video game..? You need to learn to shut those plays down an when you beat those guys it will feel extremely good. End of the day either quit for real an be happy or understand this is a video game not real NFL football. I coached 8th grade football an trust me it’s nothing like a video game an wayyyyyyy more frustrating because you control your players even less

Quote from BIGStiff1968 >> Give ea about 5 patches and it should be good, same crap every year and it's only getting worse with all the youtubers out there, no one seems to want to learn the game themselves these days they have to rely on someone else to learn it for them. I've never understood the fun it that, they're just posers, wannabe winners who can't win on their own. Play solos, stack your coin and around thanksgiving/Christmas you'll be glad you did, h2h will get better but I do agree with you it is not very fun right now for several of the reasons you stated. I'm glad you actually understood what I was saying.  It's so un-fun right now that I actually just give up on the Ultimate Team grind, and I guess I'll wait until next years game.  I hope you do well in your own MUT grind.
