Its all because fkn EA stock dropped 20 points in the third quarter so they had to try and make it up so they jacked up DDA to promote more packs. Also notice how all the level packs have sucked since Christmas. And how you always lose when there are coins on the line. Greedy bastards are gonna lose it all with this bullshit. Still have not secured NFL rights which should have happened several months ago. Goodluck EA time to start looking for new employment.

And on top of the pack odds being shit and all that, they made it awful to get coins without spending money

I quick putting money in a couple months ago. quit my farm a few days ago (they display active users on the earnings calls), and not going to play UT after this year.
I hope others follow. We can simply play CFB for 2-3 years and hope the NFL contract gets opened up like their TV deal.

No a lot of court rulings are not correct, but you are obviously too stubborn to listen to what I’m trying to say. I can’t believe in something when there is no concrete evidence of it existing. DDA being in online gameplay is all hearsay from a bunch of people that are not satisfied from the gameplay. That’s not enough for me. When someone can make a video with examples and side by side videos showing something legitimate I will maybe believe it. How can thousands and thousands of people say there’s something there but not a single person can actually show anything reasonable. It’s always someone that just lost and is mad at the game complaining about DDA. I need to see more. Sorry

To be fair, it’s hard to tell if you lost a game do to DDA or if they beat you through adjustments.
most adjustments are just flukie ways to beat the AI. You can’t expect people to be able to differentiate the two.
cant argue with this fool ....he's on both websites, rarely talks unless its to defend EA smh he's been doin it for yrs...... if you look at his name then you would understand its hard for him to think logically

People really think people can't tell the difference between adjustments and DDA. It's wide open receivers getting over thrown balls and all of a sudden when you were once up 14 0 now you can't gain a yard. DDA is not effecting every game but if you really think it's not in the game I can almost guarantee you're a casual (no disrespect intended). There's just too many things that happen consistently fumbles, players slow down, wide open WRS getting red barred, insta sheds, as Ea would say. It's in the game !

DDA doesn’t exist and there would be no way the same 20 people would be playing in 100k tournaments every year. Theres a reason the same people make it to the live events for these big tournaments. It’s because they’re really good at the game. If DDA existed don’t you think some of these guys would lose and there would be new people in these tournaments? DDA is a crutch for people to lean on when they lose, no one can just accept the fact some people are just better then them at the game.
Don't get me wrong, skill will overcome some DDA. Give me a boost and I'm still not beating many people, and would never beat the top people. But again, having a baseline of having played hundreds of solo seasons games, I then went into the bowl game H2H stuff and I could definitely feel my team was different game to game - for better or worse. Sometimes I felt some speed/acceleration/agility boosts and sometimes I felt like my players were running on the beach.

I’m just pointing out it’s possible they could have been wrong, which you agree.
If you post a video online even discussing DDA, your video is removed. so you can hold out for that or use it as justification on why you don’t believe it.
Couple of clues EA does not make claims for CFB that it does not exist. You can’t be sued if you never claimed it’s not there( I guess)
They continue to deny it for all other preexisting games.
Most importantly if you can’t see it in the game, you’re not paying attention. I see DDA for me and against me. I got better results on my Farm with lower people than on my main. It’s because I done have a high win percentage on the farm.

In past iterations of Madden I’ve received tips mid game and it made huge differences.
imagine not knowing how to slant your O-line or D-line and expecting your line to block or block shed as well as your opponents.
Sometimes you think you’re getting robbed, but, they were a better player or you win because you got DDA help and you think it’s all you.
If they removed DDA out of the game, some people would still believe it’s in the game.

Agree 100%. Skill still matters a lot, however c the game is currently out of balance.
The DDA AI is too good. They have created a well designed AI.

You do know that solo seasons and online games play on different difficulties and sliders? Of course the game will feel different. As for players with 95 speed getting burnt by guys with 95 speed most likely has to do with fatigue and the west and tear system.

Next time you experience DDA you should clip it and post a link for people to see it. I would love to see. Trust me I can see very weird things that happen in this game but I just don’t think it’s DDA. I believe it’s a poorly made game and i think it’s also practically impossible for these game developers to get everything perfect. Things will happen that probably shouldn’t happen but I don’t think DDA has anything to do with it. Who knows I could be wrong and you could be right, but until I see something legitimate I can’t believe it’s used.

Difficulty level shouldn't be affecting stats like agility, acceleration, and speed. Also, I've stated repeatedly that some H2H games my guys played better than my solo season baseline while some they played worse. Again, not talking line blocking, receiver separation or anything like that. I'm talking my runner in the open field. Fatigue wouldn't have anything to do with it either as this is all within the first couple plays of my offensive drives in all of these games.

I’m guessing you are not winning enough to experience. If you start winning 2/3 of the time you will see it.
I was top 50 ranked Madden 24 Squads. I won a bunch, so DDA targeted me. I was able to overcome DDA and my competitors more often than not.
This game the DDA is much harder to overcome. Once you start winning a lot of games in a row, you will experience it. I’m not good enough to overcome the DDA. Meaning it’s turned up too high for my liking.
It‘s clear a lot of other people here feel the same way. This forum is a representation of the most dedicated players. Players that are so active, we get on a forum and discuss the game.
In my opinion EA has pushed too hard and many will finally give in. We are dedicated and let a lot of things go on, however, a lot of us will finally move on.
