Madden 17 Cheating

You just suck
Madden claimed to fix the HB stretch cheese. But no matter what I do, their running back breaks a tackle or two in the back field and runs it for 75 yards just about every single time.

actually no I do not suck...I asked a simple question...typical on this board...

Apparently you do.

How are you determining that you don't suck? Because you can beat the computer?

I haven't played much this year but every year there is cheese that people love to exploit, but if you're good there's always a way to counter. And cheesing isn't cheating by the way although I don't condone it.

That's Madden breaux. It's the same in all EA sports games. It's far worse in FIFA, IMO. Nothing like having a 0-0 game deep into the 60th minute with both teams playing tight D all game long. Then one team scores to go up 1-0, and wouldn't ya know the other team dribbles right down the field to seamlessly tie the game up at 1-1. It's how EA games are built. They rarely allow one team to dominate an entire game without the momentum drastically changing to help the losing team. Does it happen sometimes? Sure. But for the most part the AI is built to keep games close. No way around it.

As for lobby games, I quit playing those years ago. It's just a cheese fest. Watch the Madden Championships, which I refuse to, but the one I watched was a complete cheese fest. It's encouraged in Madden, and it's only getting worse. Find a good sim league on OperationSports and leave the lobby bums behind.

Thank you...this is what I was looking for...

You just wanted somebody to agree with you, don't lie.

The cheese isn't even "bad" this year by maddens standards.

Lol so many fumbles when you begin to take a big league

Yep. You're chances of fumbling go WAYYYY down. Also if you have a big lead or just an lead really late into the game, dive to the ground before taking a hit. Only noobs OP run around into hit sticks or strips.

Then there are some games that are running smoothly, I score, then suddenly the game starts getting glitchy and the other person can do nothing wrong, and I can't do a single thing and I have read online about cheats that are being used that will cause the game to get glitchy by the other person to gain advantages...

The equalizer is real. EA claims there is no equalizer, but they are full of shite. It happens when I get up by 21 points or more, and all of the sudden, my opponent's routes are magically open, my HB suddenly has fumbleitis, the same cover 3 defense that my opponent has been running all game suddenly covers the curl routes.


It's real.



Now, if you're talking about glitchy plays or nano blitzes, they all have a counter, and if you're a good player, you figure it out and dot their arse up.

I know for a fact that there is rubberbanding in FIFA. A guy on OS dug into the game's coding and found it. There's a thread on OS about it.

Can only assume it's the same for Madden.
