I had a real nice response typed out earlier and some how closed my internets so this won't be near as well thought out.Everything I've read suggests the game is harder due to the improved defense.
Is that honestly the vibe you get, or does it just seem cheap? One of my biggest gripes has always been the lack of real NFL throws you could make in the game.
You either had passes swatted down that should not have been due to the the game having limited pass trajectories, or it would be one of those deals where the game just didn't have any run-through-the-catch animations and what should have been a TD would instead be an immediate catch and tackle.
The two things I looked for the most in the demo in recent years was to see if the passing game had changed and if pass rushers actually mattered, and every year, both of those aspects would remain the same.
Has either of these changed at all?
My brother and I both thought this game had a 2k feel to it. Running the ball was better and more fluid, we both have struggled throwing deep balls and it seems like the DB get a jump on most balls, especially the out routes.
Defensively, I play with mostly dline at the snap of the ball and the jump the snap feature is nice, pressure on the qb does seem to matter, a lot more bad throws, you have to climb the pocket and avoid pressure to make accurate throws.
So far its been a decent upgrade, of course visually its much better, I do not like the play calling though, I may get used to it but its weird right now.
