Anyone else got Madden 15 on PS4?


Got this 2 days ago, much prefer 2k's my career in NBA over EA's in Madden but I will give the other modes a go before I write it off. I have it set to rookie as I haven't played a Madden game since 08 and I don't get to watch much of it here in Aus so there is soo much about it I don't understand and I have found it far too easy to advance your player. I have just started my second season and am already a 99 rated player. It is ridiculous how easily I have accumulated XP points as opposed to the same difficulty on NBA.

The gauntlet is fun though however like I said there is a heap of terms I don't quite understand yet in the game so will take time for me to really get into it.

Does anyone play EWR/TEW on here?


I used to play them all the time up until the first EWR, my favorite game though was promotion wars, wish I still had a copy of it lying around and all the links on the web I have found are dead

We have a front rower in our league team that will pop his shoulder out at least twice a game making tackles and he just pops it right back in and keeps playing. Says it doesn't hurt him anymore but I bet when he can't lift his arm when he's older he will regret it. Def get it checked out and if it keeps popping out it's prolly not worth playing anymore.

No plans on leaving just yet. Hurry up and offer me a new contract

Lol Itchy rotten indeed, can't get rid of him though. Might just have to leave him on the side of the road somewhere.

Thanks Cymro really enjoying this and all the struggles that come with it.

He whinged, I told him we needed to make a change in the final third (we needed a goal) he kept whinging wouldn't drop it so now he is on the unwanted list.

A poor start and finish to the month. We went 3-0 down against Ljungskile and missed a penalty before fighting our way back but left it too late. I made some small tweaks, nothing major and we picked up wins in our next 3 games although have all 3 goals against Utsikten scored by defenders didn't fill me with confidence and our lack of ability to find the net more then once in the next two had me nervous. We were totally outplayed by Varnamo in what was a game we should have won easily going by pre match expectations.

Still hanging around the playoff spot and with 12 games to go we have seen what a few dropped points can do to ladder position so we need to keep focused and keep winning.

Our worst month this season and sees us drop right down the table. We should really be beating Brage and GAIS and I can't really explain what is going on. I have been in this position before however and all it takes is one small tweak of a tactic or a player moved around and we bounce right back so here is to hoping we can turn this around and quick.

Not a great month, we lost our first game in 9 and it coincided with an injury to Dalgaard. Barrow could barely get a shot on target let alone score in the two games in the middle. We were very lucky with Taarabt's late equalizer as it looked offside.
Dalgaard returned from injury and his impact was immediate scoring 2 and bringing out the best in Barrow who scored 1 and assisted another.

http://i59.tinypic.com/212zj1s.jpg

Still in the playoff spot but another lean month and I can quite easily fall right out.

I've resigned some players on lower wages so I have gone from 800 per week in the red to about 250 now. Still leaking money but a few older players are leaving at the end of the season and hopefully we get promotion.

They won't leave me alone now. Irony is if I get sacked prolly won't get any offers haha.

Halmstad also wanted me for an interview, no thanks.

It's getting a bit ridiculous now, getting an offer from a team in the top tier in Portugal.

An undefeated month and to be honest we should have beaten Oster we let a 2 goal lead slip but c'est la vie.
Speaking of Oster they were relegated from the top tier as were Gelfie so to pick up 4 points against them is remarkable. We are now 8 games unbeaten stemming from last season and things are falling into place nicely.

Gary Hooper can't get a start because the partnership of Dalgaard and Barrow is amazing. 4 goals to each of them has propelled us to 2nd on the ladder and a dream start. Here is to hoping we can keep the momentum going and fight for a playoff spot.

Near flawless performances in the friendlies, just the one draw there and defence still leaky at times but overall ecstatic with the way we played.

http://i57.tinypic.com/20rkbr5.jpg

Unfortunately the narrow loss to AIK (who are a division one side and finished 2nd last season) meant we didn't qualify but the performances were unreal, we had our chances to equalise and maybe even steal the win but still thrilled we pushed a Div 1 title contending team all the way to the end.

We have a sweeps between 10 mates so we had to eliminate 2 teams to give each person 3 teams. We get rid of Honduras and Costa Rica, Costa Rica then make us look like dicks by beating Uruguay lol.

Starting with the outs, huge profit on the sale of the 16 year old CB from my academy. Also added the percentage of profit from next sale clause. Excited to see what he does at the much bigger club in Helsingborg and hopefully he gets picked up for a rather large amount somewhere down the track.

Carlsson was my 3rd choice goalkeeper and whilst young was just not going to get a game for me so nice to see a profit on him too, also have the profit clause on him.

Ahmed Awad was a 30 year old Palestinian, whilst having a good season for me his age and international status meant he could leave.

Johansson was probably the one I mulled over the most, looked like he could have developed really well so I made sure to stick the profit clause on him too.

Finally Siwe, almost had second thoughts about selling him because he is Swedish and you need to have 9 players in the match squad trained in Sweden but I am very strong in the midfield and he probably would not have added to the 6 games he played last season.

I will show you individually a few of the great players coming in then give the overview of all the ins.

First up:
http://i60.tinypic.com/2e1em3o.jpg

He is strong, can go the distance, has a great long shot, excellent technique and works for the team. Only worry is his aggression, hoping he doesn't get sent off to much but a young ENglish talent in the second tier of Sweden and a damn good one at that.

http://i58.tinypic.com/2uq0fpe.jpg

Only 17 years old, so if I hold onto him will eventually count as trained in Sweden so there is a plus. I like his determination, work rate, technique and passing stats but he also has amazeballs physical stats. If he improves his strength he could very well be retrained to DM for me.

http://i61.tinypic.com/9h12r7.jpg

Immensely talented German with great technique, crossing and corner attributes. Will be very dangerous on the right.

http://i58.tinypic.com/1ictch.jpg

Great reflexes and pretty good command and communication attributes which is what I look at with goalkeepers first and foremost.

http://i59.tinypic.com/2hdzjx2.jpg

An old head but still has all the attributes to destroy this league and covers both flanks and doubles as a scout.

http://i57.tinypic.com/dxrmt.jpg

An outstanding capture for this team, despite his attributes sinking quickly he has the big game experience and still some key stats to make a huge impression on this league. Doubles as my 19's manager.

http://i58.tinypic.com/3313q6r.jpg

Another outstanding capture for this small club and could quite possibly be my best player.

http://i61.tinypic.com/9ghu1i.jpg

Only 14k spent on transfers but some of those players are on quite high wages. Most of the old guard only have contracts until the end of November this year but have 15 game extension clauses so if we do really well I will keep most of the squad for next season if we don't off they go and I rebuild again.

Deserved much better then that, ran them off their feet in the second half. Had we found an equalizer I think we would have gone on to win it. Ah well that is football.

Phenomenal work with Liverpool! YNWA indeed... I've had some trouble with the club in FM14, and it's great to see someone do so well


Thanks a lot mate. I was having some trouble early on too, I tend to stick to the same base formation and change the odd role here and there maybe move a DM to CM or a CM to AMC things like that but I finally decided to try something different with the narrow formation and it worked a treat

Anyways some big news on the transfer front and a surprising friendly win are coming up

He is amazing ole timmy. If he had the legs he used to I reckon he would have had two by now. Bresciano has been amazing, his passes have been near perfect.
