NFT: Madden 18 Online Franchise Xbox One

COLTS and BOLTS : 8/9/2017 4:22 pm
And here we go again. Looking to get people together to do an online franchise. I know of several people and what teams they want to use, but I'm getting our page started.

I will be the Chargers again.

Will advance again this weekend
What is up  
WTH_Jackson : 11/3/2017 2:24 pm : link
With the league this year? Mike has lost 3 games and Colts has list 7, it seems like Colts might be throwing the season for top pick
You hit the nail on the head  
COLTS and BOLTS : 11/3/2017 9:59 pm : link
Rivers is awful and I want a new QB so I’m coming for that #1 pick haha. Mike has been slammed in real life so he hasn’t been on and got some sim losses.
Seems to me like our league is unbalanced  
trueblueinpw : 11/3/2017 10:54 pm : link
This is my first season and haven’t played everyone but I’m getting the impression the league isn’t that even. I’m .500 in online head to head, not great but I don’t always suck either and I got my ass handed to me last night and in another match up earlier this season. Is the league always like this with one or two guys competing for first and the rest also rans?

Usually there is the one we are all chasing but this year it has balanced out

Been a odd season for Madden the usual top players are posting bad records with everybody looking to gets better QB in the draft. Also I feel that this year Madden play a in a way that if keeps games close despite big differences in player talent.

I agree, the CPU seems to have been getting more breaks to keep it close instead of blow outs

Need to get it on or we’re gonna get simmed. Monday night? Bring your headset and I’ll do my best Gruden impressions.
Hey guys...got a quick question for you on the game  
redbeard : 11/8/2017 12:46 pm : link
Thinking of buying madden 18 but over seen/heard a lot of complaints about an absurd amount of dropped passes. I primarily play off-line franchise and it would be a deal breaker for me if my receivers are dropping the majority of passes that are hitting them square in the numbers

Is it a big issue in the game?

I haven't noticed it that bad. To me it the drops are more realistic as to when the reciever gets hit and if the DB got hands inside before the catch. Also those who have drop issues in real.life it translates into game.
Yeah  
jtfuoco : 11/8/2017 4:44 pm : link
I don't see it either drops happen mainly when the WR is getting hit by the DB in the game so its more realistic and if they didn't have that in the game there would be no stopping offenses in the game.

On a side note in the gameplay slider you can adjust Catching and increase it if you want fewer drops anyways so that should be a non factor for you to get the game.
We are in Week 15 now  
COLTS and BOLTS : 11/9/2017 2:04 pm : link
I advanced the league last night. Only 3 regular season weeks left and then the playoffs. The draft will take place after Thanksgiving so that we have ample time for FA, final scouting, and for Intel to get back and be present.
guys

Here is a game that is getting created for the Xbox it is designed to bring back college football and avoid the licencing issues and its being called by some as the EA killer. It looks interesting you should check it out.

Looks interesting. I always enjoyed the college football games because I felt you had more control over the team, especially in recruiting and setting your schedule.

I am waiting for Xbox to get a good MLB game like PS4 has in The Show

It’s more a matter of skill than CPU chance. Drops happen, but they happen in real life too, there’s some glitches, I just had someone run through a tackle, but that’s still no reason not to buy the game. You should play online with us - it’s fun.
Thank You

I know some of the guys in the league are in the military or have served. Thank you guys for your service and sacrifice. Without your sacrifice we have no freedom.

In week 16 now
Anybody  
jtfuoco : 11/14/2017 10:00 am : link
else notice that injuries are way down this season in madden I have not lost a player in 4 weeks not even a in game injury I wonder with the roster and game updates if they were reduced
Jt  
COLTS and BOLTS : 11/14/2017 2:54 pm : link
I will check. I wonder if I have injuries off from the advance and I forgot to turn them back on. Because I played WTH a week ago and lost my KR and Bosa for the rest of the season
Injuries  
WTH_Jackson : 11/14/2017 3:34 pm : link
My guess is they have it more realistic. Jordan Reed got injured for me and was out a few weeks and then first game back he goes down for the season. However I will agree that in game injuries are down this season, maybe it was a complaint from people and they adjusted it.
I advanced the league last night  
COLTS and BOLTS : 11/16/2017 5:14 pm : link
Last week of the regular season
Giants  
WTH_Jackson : 11/17/2017 5:35 pm : link

Apologies.. as I have been traveling more often than expected this Fall and haven't had ample time to play.

I still login and advance when I can.. I will try to keep up with next season more frequently as I know we are approaching playoffs.

Giants are not heading to the playoffs real life or xbox franchise!
I'm back  
Bad_intel99 : 11/21/2017 1:29 pm : link
And ready for the draft. Don't take a Qb Austin
Intel  
COLTS and BOLTS : 11/21/2017 4:40 pm : link
We'll be doing the draft sometime next week. I'm heading out of town for the holiday tomorrow so I will make Adder a commish so he can advance the playoffs as people (hopefully) play through and finish it over the holiday. Then we can start FA when I come back next Monday and do the draft late next week.

And sorry Intel, but QB coming off the board at #1...
Happy Thanksgiving

Thanks. Alexander is a good strong name but we already have a name picked out.

Yes we do all 7 rounds in one night, usually the whole offseason takes about 5 to 7 days
Free Agency  
COLTS and BOLTS : 12/3/2017 1:49 am : link
We are in the first stage of FA so get on and put bids in on players you want. Will advance to the next stage on Monday night. Will advance again Tuesday and Wednesday. We’ll do the draft on Wednesday night at 8pm PST if that works for everyone
Draft  
COLTS and BOLTS : 12/3/2017 3:51 pm : link
Will be Thursday at 8 now instead. Some people aren’t available on Wednesday.

Sorry Jason you are even more outnumbered now.

Thursday works well for me as I don't have to work Friday. As far as time zones go, I'm pretty sure I'm the furthest away
Thanks everybody
