Madden 11: 3 on 3 Thursdays!

Thread Starter 
Some of us in the AVS Madden league also want to play the new 3 on 3 mode as pick up games. It will be easier to get enough guys together if we have a dedicated day to play.

If you have Madden 11 and want to join us, look for an "AVS" room. The password will be "avs" to make it easy. Mics are recommended for this mode if you have one.

You can also check out the 3 on 3 thread at our message board. avsmadden.proboards.com

This will just be an informal get together of AVS guys to play Madden 11, 3 on 3. Nothing scheduled, just fun. As with our league, any skill level is welcome to join us!

A bunch of people will probably be online all night anytime after 7 or 8 EST.

Are you able to join a co-op game that is already in progress?

Not sure...but I guess we can find out!

This is what I'm hoping will happen. The first person on makes the AVS room with avs as the password. Hopefully within 15 minutes or so we get 5 more people in the room and start the game. The seventh person who gets online should start a new room "AVS2" still with the avs password.

Don't worry too much about the game settings. As we play more Madden 11, I'm sure we'll find how we want the 3 on 3 mode to be set. However, don't go over 7 minute quarters please. I think most of us liked 7 minute quarters in Madden 10 but anything between 5 and 7 is ok with me.

Might not be a bad idea to cut it down to 5 or 6 minute quarters and turn off the playclock runoff. I'd assume with more people playing on a team together, the extra 10 or 15 seconds presnap would be helpful.

Good idea!

Nope.

I wish I had time to join in... my gaming time (especially at that time) is basically nonexistent for the near future

So it was a crapshoot last night. After fumbling thru the online menus, I finally figured out how it all works and we'll do better next time!

Me, brakel and Mav did get one game in against some random dudes though. The camera angles are weird...not sure I'm a fan of them, especially on D, but I guess I'll get used to it. We were awful in the 1st half (mostly b/c of my poor QB play) but picked it up in the 2nd half with over 200 yards thru the air and ended up forcing OT with a last second FG, but lost 16-10.

I see some potential here, especially if we can get at least 6 friends in a room together.

It was a blast! I'm sure that once more people get the game and we get the word out, we'll get more guys playing. Even in our league not that many guys have picked up 11 yet so I think in a week or two we'll be able to have a full 3 on 3 match with all AVS/league guys.

Post up if you want to meet up with us tonight for Madden 11, 3 on 3 Thursday! We've gotten some good games in the last couple of Thursdays.
