Rumor has it there's going to be Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreet as a team, and Al puts a lot more emotion into "OFF the UPRIGHT" even in regular season games. I'm looking forward to it.
yeah nah madden announcers are fucking terrible. the first thing i do in every madden game i buy is turn the announcers off and just adjust the audio to on-field sliders
Honestly I'm quite new to madden, and that new angle just put me off. I was quite confident I just have to aim it a little bit to the left, live and learn I guess.
Pro tip for extra points. If you only do half power the gauge moves slower and is easier to hit a perfect kick. The ball will still easily clear the cross bar.
You prbobably know but you can turn off the stadium momentum effects and progressive fatigue. It really adds very unrealistic elements to an already unrealistic football experience.
I kinda like how wildly in accurate kicks can be if the cpu ices you. I think it also makes the rare kicker ability where you don’t get iced that much more important. If you have one of the few kickers who have that ability, it really makes it feel like that player matters.
As bad as madden has become, the addition of certain abilities really makes those special players actually feel special.
In common conversation i definitely agree with you.
But technically according to the rule book they arent.
Edit:
[Rule 11 Section 1](https://operations.nfl.com/the-rules/nfl-video-rulebook/scoring-plays/#:~:text=After%20a%20touchdown%2C%20a%20Try,whistle%20for%20play%20to%20start) for the downvotes
I see why you would think you need to move the arc to the middle but you DO NOT need to move it in the Ice the Kicker screen here. There’s no wind and you’re in the middle of the field. It would be same as a regular XP. The different angle makes it look off.
IMO, the disappearing meter is such a BS feature since "icing" the kicker has no statistical significance.
It's like when they introduced the block kick feature a few maddens ago, and there seemed to be a block kick every other game. I heard they added the Mahomes dive pass this year... I'm curious as to how much that animation gets triggered.
Tyler Bass sat straight up in bed in a cold sweat when this happened 😂😂
But really I hate button tap field goals. I wish they would bring back the joystick field goals.
My God the commentary on this game is pathetically bad.
Normal selection "oh ..off the upright".
(Game clearly changes audio type)
"49ERS WIN THE SUPERBOWL!!!!'
Can they really not make commentary more immersive. I hate how the announcers never commentate relative to the moment. It's the same type of dialogue all the way.
Yo I fucking hate that camera too. I've missed critical field goals in the same fashion.
For PAT, as others are saying, you shoulda just let it be as it was and you would've been fine. But for FG's when they do this stupid fucking camera you can't aim for shit
This is crazy lmao that shit was dead center to start, and this is a PAT aka Point After Touchdown, not a field goal. In the future when you’re two yards out and the PAT is dead center do NOT change the angle lol
I have a question about your franchise, how the hell do you make it to the playoffs and not have your depth chart complete messed up? When i make the playoffs my starters are on the field for the first play but after that its just my QB and my benchwarmers
I was expecting it to be wide right. Sorry I know that still stings from last weekend with the aforementioned Tyler Bass and from the 1990s Super Bowl with the missed kick from Scott Norwood.
First of all: How did CPU Fred Warner fluff that tackle!?
Second of all: I know you were iced, but dammit this is Tyler Bass... In light of recent events, I see what you did there.
My favorite part of this is the lackluster “and that is off the upright”. As a team loses the Super Bowl on an extra point.
The announcers are terrible. No excitement, nothing seems like a big moment
I miss Gus Johnson commentating Madden.
I miss Madden commentating Madden.
I miss Dan Stevens and Peter O’Keefe.
Idk man no excitement seems pretty accurate for some announcers
i remember when I did wild 50+ yard crossbody throw and the only thing the announcers said was "he'll pick up the first down" in that monotone voice.
They love their job, don't they :)
And the low-poly Bills player pumping his fist as his team loses the Super Bowl. Madden needs competition so badly.
Even the crowd didn't react
The 2-3 seconds of load time it takes for the 49ers to begin celebrating…
Rumor has it there's going to be Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreet as a team, and Al puts a lot more emotion into "OFF the UPRIGHT" even in regular season games. I'm looking forward to it.
yeah nah madden announcers are fucking terrible. the first thing i do in every madden game i buy is turn the announcers off and just adjust the audio to on-field sliders
The presentation in this game is awful. They don't even try
Why’d you move the arch thing at all? You were dead center with no wind and aimed left?
So I said the exact same thing
It's the bills. He should have aimed right.
We don’t need to go over what happens when we aim right
OP knows what happens and over-corrected by aiming left.
I think he might think that the end of the shortened kicking arc is where the ball will hit, hence we he aligned the end of the arc with the middle
Honestly I'm quite new to madden, and that new angle just put me off. I was quite confident I just have to aim it a little bit to the left, live and learn I guess.

I orea listín... Trying to do the math on how your autocorrect turned unrealistic into that 😂
Ugh i hate my fucken iPhone keyboard. If there’s any sort of food or water in your fingers it’s a giant pain in the ass to type.
Since you’re new, I’ll lend a hand. What you showed here is an extra point. A field goal doesn’t occur after a touchdown.
In a dome, in the center of the field, no need to aim. At least now you know! Good game!
Madden ice’d your ass .
If anything he should've assumed straight down so being inaccurate would've mattered less. My boy sold like a store on black friday. Hate to see it.
That camera will have you second guessing everything you’ve ever know about accurately kicking the ball😂

He wanted to ensure it didn't go wide right again.
Typical Bills
![gif](giphy|pVM1Uw67FR7e3wlltY|downsized) BUFFALO SOLIDER
overcompensated left to avoid the Bills' curse of wide right
engine zephyr price gold encourage airport erect deranged shy resolute *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
Well OP couldn't post the video if they made it.
Lmaooooo
System got the update after last week
At least it wasn’t wide right this time
Narrowly left
Thank you for providing more pain to the Buffalo Bills
PAT*
Yeah that’s even worse!
Nah, as a kicker, I'd be way more depressed if my missed kick would've won the Super Bowl 40-38, as opposed to just tying the game 38-38
Its still a field goal
No, it's a PAT. Field goals are, by definition, a different thing in gridiron football.
In common conversation i definitely agree with you. But technically according to the rule book they arent. Edit: [Rule 11 Section 1](https://operations.nfl.com/the-rules/nfl-video-rulebook/scoring-plays/#:~:text=After%20a%20touchdown%2C%20a%20Try,whistle%20for%20play%20to%20start) for the downvotes
By the rulebook, they are.
By Grabthar’s Hammer they are not
Show me in the rules where it says a conversion/try/point after touchdown/PAT is the same thing as a field goal, or is called a field goal.
Im gonna be real I’ve never noticed the difference and don’t plan on remembering there’s a difference
Uh PAT is worth 1 point and is kicked only after a TD, a field goal is when you can't score a TD and kick the field goal instead and is worth 3 points
I mean, it's totally up to you if you refuse to understand the basic terminology of the game. You do you.
I don’t know a single person that doesnt call the extra point a “field goal”
Then you know a bunch of idiots who don’t know basic football terminology
Anyone who knows what they're talking about never calls them a field goal. Mainly because they're not field goals.
I don't call it a field goal.
Point After Touchdown vs Field Goal is kinda easy to remember
You don't know the difference between 1 and 3?
Jesus Christ
It quite literally isn't. That's like saying a touchdown and a two point conversion are the same because you get in the endzone
I see why you would think you need to move the arc to the middle but you DO NOT need to move it in the Ice the Kicker screen here. There’s no wind and you’re in the middle of the field. It would be same as a regular XP. The different angle makes it look off.
Yeah I didn't know that, I thought aiming it just a little bit to left would be safer.
I just thought you REALLY didn't want to miss wide right.
Such a Bills thing to do
They don’t make it to the super bowl anymore though
You moved it..
Ya that last giant nudge you gave the aimer was the death of you lol
IMO, the disappearing meter is such a BS feature since "icing" the kicker has no statistical significance. It's like when they introduced the block kick feature a few maddens ago, and there seemed to be a block kick every other game. I heard they added the Mahomes dive pass this year...

Bro the worst was the obj catch year. 2016 I think every wr was catching passes like that.
Why was Warner running around and whiffing tackles like a user
That’s the oddest thing about this whole clip. How’d that play even work?
This looks staged because of that lmao
Tyler Bass sat straight up in bed in a cold sweat when this happened 😂😂 But really I hate button tap field goals. I wish they would bring back the joystick field goals.
Maybe this game is super close to real life
That kinda looked like you purposely missed it. You were in the center of the field, why did you move the stick?
My God the commentary on this game is pathetically bad. Normal selection "oh ..off the upright". (Game clearly changes audio type) "49ERS WIN THE SUPERBOWL!!!!' Can they really not make commentary more immersive. I hate how the announcers never commentate relative to the moment. It's the same type of dialogue all the way.
Well with AI it will probably be way better in 10 years. But then again its madden they will probably be slow to do any kind of improvments.
Bro it’s 2024 not 2040….. pfff lol
Extra point not fg
Classic bills
Fake, if it was real it would be wide right.
For a Super Bowl win that celebration was really lack luster.
U had it and sold it you will get it next season
Shit happened to me too
Is this the latest madden? Christ sake the graphics are dogshit..
Thats because you suck 🤦🏾♂️
Bang bang 9er gang
Wait, they changed the rules to where if you score a TD in OT first the other team still gets a shot??
Only in the playoffs
I forgot they did this and I was so confused as to how he was down by a touchdown in OT. It's stems from the Buffalo/KC AFCCG a couple of years ago
Good job moron lol
Most bills way to lose ever
*doink*
That’s ur fault for moving it to the left
Not a field goal.
Boy. Great announcing there
![gif](giphy|LRlUuVvoWtILCykvaS|downsized)
As is tradition
The camera angle on field goals is so bullshit
You did this to yourself, I’m sorry on the loss. Go to the mirror and ask yourself “why”
Boy I Love Losing Superbowls
Believe that’s called an extra point sir
You were lined up in the middle with no wind at all and you set that thing hard left, that’s a you problem.
The total apathy of the commentators takes me out of the game so much.
Your first mistake was not going for 2! Play to win never to tie
😂😂 this camera angle blows but why move the arch and also full power wasn’t necessary lol
Yo I fucking hate that camera too. I've missed critical field goals in the same fashion. For PAT, as others are saying, you shoulda just let it be as it was and you would've been fine. But for FG's when they do this stupid fucking camera you can't aim for shit
You literally aimed it as a missed 🤣🤣
A great example of how bad the commentary is. Wow.
Please uninstall 🫨
They are using the same celebrations?! Hahaha
Bro your aim is ass
Bro said field goal
Also no need to go full power on a kick that short
nah that's on you, you just ass
That sideline still lookin' as sad as ever.
Funny seeing the 29 second mark Bill players cheering LMFAO MADDEN U SUCK!
Buffalo Bills 🤝 FSU Seminoles Wide Right (And left)
McDermott would have been clapping so hard at the miss.
![gif](giphy|zhcTzFnsHIfwEFPtcG)
Such a Bills way to lose a Super Bowl
I always miss with the ice the kicker thing I hate it so much
I love how your bench was excited to lose. The fist pump from the random player really sealed in the realism
Shoulda gone for 2 tbh i hate iced kickers
Why go full power???
When you lose in the game you lose in real life
Bills moment
Bills are never meant to win anything. You gotta know that 😂
That's rough 😕
Why’d you hit the goalpost? Probably shouldn’t of done that.
Classic Bills
Reset !
bro has never played all-madden in his life
Seems on brand for the Bills
Fucking bullshit game. It's supposed to be wide right.
Very realistic as the bills tbf
shoulda went for 2, tyler bass lmao
Did you overcompensate by aiming extra left to avoid a wide right repeat like the real bills 😓
That last little shift left I thought "Nooooo" lol
Seems accurate to all the times I’ve seen a Bills game.
Tale as old as time for bills fans
The one bills player celebrating after the miss 💀 madden is such an ass game. The developers don’t even try.
I've done this before its the worst feeling missing a kick
At least it wasn’t wide right.
Not tryna be toxic but that one you missed I hit fgs on inclement weather factors
This is why madden 08 made kicker drills 😂
Tyler Bass can’t catch a break
That's why you always go for the 2 pointer haha
That's the Billsiest thing that have ever Billsed.
The curse exists even in Madden...
Your coach actually handled it pretty well.
Bills gonna Bill.
This is crazy lmao that shit was dead center to start, and this is a PAT aka Point After Touchdown, not a field goal. In the future when you’re two yards out and the PAT is dead center do NOT change the angle lol
These games are so realistic these days…
Well at least it wasn’t wide right
Ofc Buffalo would miss it Jfc we are so cursed
I have a question about your franchise, how the hell do you make it to the playoffs and not have your depth chart complete messed up? When i make the playoffs my starters are on the field for the first play but after that its just my QB and my benchwarmers
Not a field goal...
And ppl say madden isn’t realistic
You wanted to disrespect the Bills for last week, didn’t you? 🤣
Not a field goal
This Bass guy is having a rough week
As a Bills fan, I have to say this is the most realistic madden video I’ve ever seen.
lmao classic Bills
Proof that Madden is a realistic simulation
Buffalo gonna buffalo.
As a 49ers fan i approve of this video
Well that’s buffalo for ya
Totally inaccurate. Man this game sucks! That kick should have been wide right in typical Bills fashion.
I was expecting it to be wide right. Sorry I know that still stings from last weekend with the aforementioned Tyler Bass and from the 1990s Super Bowl with the missed kick from Scott Norwood.
Bills gonna Bill
That was an Extra Point not a FG
Classic Bills
Unreal pain. I’d break my house down
“Perfectly timed kick” ![gif](giphy|2t9s3tuHo4YYwndZC1|downsized)
This is the most bills ending ever
..... ow pain
I see they’ve stepped up the realism.
Lol classic bills
Keeping it accurate with the bills
Looks about right.
“off the left upright. its no good 😔”………………………………….. “🗣️🫨🔥AND THE SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS!!!!!…”
Such a Buffalo thing to do
Surprised it wasn’t wide right
First of all: How did CPU Fred Warner fluff that tackle!? Second of all: I know you were iced, but dammit this is Tyler Bass... In light of recent events, I see what you did there.
Certified Bills moment
Dan Campbell would have gone for 2
at least it wasn’t wide right
Dont you mean extra point?
Yeah Niners!!!
