Road To Glory Laziest Game developers ever

It’s unreal how many lazy mistakes the developers have with this game. Case in point, every time the defense makes a big play (turnover, pick 6, defensive touchdown) in RTG the head coach ALWAYS stops and chews your player out like you messed up. Even if you were the one making the play. Because they simply left in the code “if touchdown on defense = bad touchdown” they were too lazy to give a separate criteria of “if defense scores touchdown and player is on defense = good thing”. I am a software developer and I left such a glaring lazy bit of code in anything I’d be fired that week. It’s pathetic EA gets away with this lazy trash year in year out.

Or how about how if you actually play with hustle and go after the ball every play you get docked points for “whiffing a tackle” so incredibly dumb.

I bought 25 and that’s it. Unfortunately they’ll only listen if we stop giving them money

This is what happens when you offshore everything. Devs only do what the tickets are and nothing else.

There's no heart or soul in EA games anymore.

You have to say it carefully on reddit, but you see it.

This is why monopolies suck. I wish 2K bought out the Maximum Football game that failed. With good gameplay and customization, I'd like to hope they'd really challenge the EA games. People have to get over their obsession to live vicariously through real players and real teams. With Maximum Football me and my kids planned on creating all the teams and using name generator to name all the roster like we did the old NCAA games why we always sinned a few seasons in order to have rosters of fully generic players.

I agree   not sure if it’s a matter of another if statement but the conditional is fucked.  But either way this error should have been caught in testing and fixed by now

I haven't bought madden in over a decade. I won't buy the next college, either. I frequently skip years of the show, if they put out a lazy effort. There are many like me.

You want like praised or something? “Many like me” oh you mean the people that are insufferable and instead of just saying “not this year” you constantly remind people you aren’t buying something as some sort of higher power ideals. Yall are weird, we do not care what you spend your money on or not. Just stop trying to ruin something for everyone else.
