Madden 2005: Keyboard and Mouse?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.sports (More info?)

I've never played Madden 2005, nor do I have a controller, so I'm using
keyboard and mouse. I find myself a bit confused by the game.

Are there tutorials anywhere that will help me do extreme basics, like
picking a play and getting my guy to move in the right direction?

Yes, and also Drills as well. But playing Madden on a keyboard is pretty
difficult.

controller! Its buggy for a lot of people.

As I have written many times before, the Logitech Wingman Cordless
works just fine, including the buttons having the right assignments.
This is based on Madden 2003/4, I don't have 2005.

OK, I think I got the Microsoft Force Feedback joystick to work for at least
the basic stuff. Now I just have to slog my way through all the key
assignment
charts to figure out how to do basic stuff, like control views and players!

Do they sell a tips and tricks book for Madden 2005?

I have the Prima guide for 2004 and it doesn't have the basics you
seem to be after.
