Sometimes you don’t have to call crazy audibles for a play to work in Madden 22. It can be as easy as flipping your play at the line of scrimmage or pre-play from the Selection menu. But when should you be flipping plays in Madden 22? Let’s talk about how to flip your play in Madden 22 and why doing so can mean big yards for your offense.
There are two ways to flip your play in Madden 22. The first happens at the Play Selection screen. Press the Right Trigger to flip the entire playbook, and then select the play you desire. At the line of scrimmage, pull up the Audible menu and press Right Trigger to flip the play on-field. Flipping on-field is time-consuming, and if the play clock is ticking down, you may risk a delay of game penalty. However, flipping the play on-field can confuse the defense, especially if they’re in Man Coverage.
So when and why should you flip a play in Madden 22? Most of the time, it has to do with outside run plays and on which hash marker the offense lines up. So let’s first understand what the hash markers mean.
You’ve probably noticed your offense lining up in one of three places: In the middle of the field, toward the left sideline, or toward the right sideline. You can tell where they’ll line up from the Play Selection screen. The three images above show the same formation in three different spots. For an easy time figuring it out, look at where the QB is on the play chart. You’ll always line up between the two hash lines, also known as the “seams” in football jargon.
You can also anticipate where your offense lines up based on where the last play finished. If you ran the ball toward the left sideline in the previous play and made it past the left hash mark, your offensive will line up toward the left sideline. The same goes for the right.
If you’re lined up on the left, an outside run to the left gives your RB less room to run. The same goes for screen passes and swing routes. These two images show the same play, HB Off Tackle, which is an outside run. We’re going to flip it so the run goes to the right to give our RB more room to run. Of course, this doesn’t mean you should sprint to the right sideline for a big gain. Hit the holes that open up, even if they’re right through the offensive line.
When it comes to passing, this WR Out toward the left sideline is risky. Why? The defender doesn’t have too much field to cover; they can stay on top of the receiver and intercept the pass. So, we flip the play to the right to open up the field and make the defender lay off the receiver. Fire the pass in there once the WR makes their cut.
In the middle of the field, flipping plays doesn’t do too much. If you feel like you’re having better luck running at the left side of the defense, then maybe you’ll flip your running plays to exploit that weakness. Otherwise, don’t confuse yourself by flipping pass plays for no reason.
The Call of Duty franchise has held a special place in my heart ever since I played my first Black Ops game back in 2010. That game's campaign was something else, with twists and turns that culminated in a mind-blowing finale. We can all admit that compared to those older campaigns, the recent CODs have been lackluster at best, and a complete and utter disappointment at worst. The reboot of Modern Warfare did give me some hope, as the first two installments were actually quite good, but the third game left such a bad taste in my mouth that I wasn’t exactly expecting much from Modern Warfare 4.
After recently finishing the campaign, I can say that this installment is nothing like the recent releases and instead feels closer to the franchise’s roots. For the first time in a long while, the campaign comes across as well-crafted rather than rushed to hit a release date. It arrives three years after MW3, and you can see exactly where all that time went. It seems the studio finally made listening to player feedback a priority.
Epic Games has just announced the 2026 Epic AI MegaJam, which is looking to see how much game development can be squeezed into a very short window. This is running from November 12 through November 15.
Participants can work alone or in teams of up to five people, build in Unreal Engine or Unreal Editor for Fortnite, and bring along “as many AI agents as you want.” Epic explicitly encourages coding agents, AI-generated assets, audio tools, writing tools, and other AI systems. The official event page literally says "Vibe your way to $50k.”
It’s turning into a pretty good time to be a Monster Hunter fan who plays on a phone. Capcom has confirmed that Monster Hunter Outlanders will launch on Android and iOS on October 29, giving the series a new mobile-first game just as Monster Hunter Rise is also preparing to make the jump to smartphones through Netflix.
Outlanders is being developed by Tencent subsidiary TiMi Studio Group under license and supervision from Capcom. Unlike Rise, which appears to be the full console and PC game adapted for mobile, Outlanders is a free-to-play survival hunting game made specifically for phones.
