How can I share my suggestions for Madden NFL 24?
Hey, Madden Community! Welcome to the Game Suggestions board! You're probably here because you have a great suggestion for Madden NFL 24 or for a future Madden title. This is the perfect place to share your thoughts on how to improve the Madden franchise. Some rules and guidelines for this board: Be constructive! If the game is frustrating you, please let us know why it makes you feel that way and share your thoughts on how to make it better. Posts that are abusive or troll-like may be removed per the AHQ Forum Rules. Use the search bar! Try searching for key words to see if there's already a post about the topic you want to bring up. If you find a thread feel free to join the conversation. We love to see one thread with an active discussion instead of a bunch of random posts about the same topic. This makes it easier to collect everyone's feedback and share it with the Madden team. Give XP! Think of this board as a public "suggestion box." If you like someone's ideas or feedback hit the XP button on their post. We often look at this to let us know when an idea is getting traction from the community. Keep other boards in mind! For instance, if you have thoughts on a specific feature in Franchise, it might be best to create a thread on the dedicated Franchise board. That way your fellow Franchise fans can join the conversation and share their thoughts. How do I give a great suggestion? A post that only says "you should put X in the game because it will make it better" isn't very helpful. How would it be better? What needs to be improved? If your post tells us why the current design has issues and includes reasons why your idea would be an improvement, that gives us much more to go on. Including specific examples can go a long way toward making improvements to the game. Screenshots or video clips are always welcome! We look forward to hearing your thoughts on Madden NFL 24! We'll do our part to share your feedback with the Madden development team for consideration. Thank you for being a fan of the Madden franchise!
Abilities not lighting up with crossplay
Hi, I realize this is a long shot at this point with the game being pretty old but I’d like to enjoy what time we have left with it that we have being I put a fair amount of money into building a team on ultimate team on this years edition. Any help is appreciated! Within the past year or so l and many others(friends I have that also play ultimate team) on the Xbox side of things have come to notice that the RNG with both abilities and X factor seems to deeply favor players from ps5. But when facing other Xbox players, it’s actually is pretty balanced out. I can actually provide many examples of this and would be willing to share footage if this if it helps to go along with it. For now here’s some examples: —Defensive linemen without abilities shedding secure protector very easily. (Like we’re talking no abilities at all, or another example of this is when they do have abilities such as passiveunstoppable force only rushing 4 and shedding near instantly) —Reinforcement not lighting up. I’ve seen in many cases now where my secondary players LBs, DBs, and safety’s with passive reinforcement getting pancaked every play even with them seated properly into the run fit. -Run stuffer not lighting up. I have a defensive line where there is a run stuffer on every spot on my defensive line(I admittedly have a very good defensive line). Yet, when a PlayStation 5 player runs into this defensive line, they do no shed, like at all until their ball carrier is 3-4 yards pass them. Doesn’t matter what front I come out in. I could be in the 5-2 and have 2 linebackers in the box and a safety dropped down to the line of scrimmage and still will not see a shed. And while I could sit here and spit out examples on examples of this the biggest one is that traditional abilities that beat passive bottleneck do not seem to work consistently at all. I have no issue with this at all playing other Xbox players. I have WRs that have passive double me, rac em up, max security and am coming out in stack formations that are favorable to beat this kind of defense and am still seeing them being able to bottleneck my receivers, even with route combinations that should be creating enough rub to keep open somebody up. If somebody could please advise that would be awesome. I get it’s an old game that there’s not a lot left of us that play, but I would love to get the most out of the team I built. I have an LTD in every corner of my roster and at some point, I don’t really think it’s a skill issue. I’m pretty well versed with this game and have been playing it long enough at this point that I think I can make the judgement call to say there is something fishy going on.Character Creation/Equipment Suggestions
WHY WOULD THIS MAKE MADDEN BETTER? BECAUSE IT WOULD ADD SO MUCH DEPTH THAT WOULD GIVE THE GAME SO MUCH BETTER IMMERSION AND AUTHENTICITY. It makes creating draft classes exciting and not repetitive after each season in franchise. Players won't look the same 4 years into a franchise. I could go on and on about how much this would excite the community. A REAL FACE EDITOR Give us the FOTF editor with more customization options (facial features, hair, facial hair, accessories) to use for draft classes, create a player, etc. The generic face scans are extremely aged, recycled, and don't look appealing anymore, new generic scans haven't even been added in years Leave the generic faces for real players without scans and for players who don't wish to go in depth with customization Pick home and away equipment for all players Being able to pick separate gear for cold weather games Use the same "long sleeve temp" but add more than just long sleeves Examples: Loose long sleeves for cold weather games, neck/face coverings/hoods, handwarmers built in jersey like Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson Being able to wear multiple arm sleeves on one arm Example: In the Patriots v. Texans preseason game the other day Jalen Mills and Tank Dell were wearing both 1/4 sleeves and a shooter sleeve together Being able to wear turf tape and arm sleeves on one arm Example: Desmond Ridder, or Christian Gonzalez in the preseason game the other day Being able to wear multiple arm bands on one arm Example: Jamal Adams wears two bands on his upper arm Fix the pants on player models to have pads/pants go above the knees Being able to wear colored visors Being able to wear padded arm sleeves Mouth guards that attach to helmet Name brand arm sleeves ADD TATTOOS Even if real players can't get tattoos due to licensing issues, give players a variety of template tattoos to place on all created players Being able to wear Knee/Shoulder braces Rolled shooter sleeves Custom thigh pads Team logo/jersey numbers Multiple chin strap options Neck pads that go underneath jersey Custom throw creator for QBs similar to features in (NBA2k, MLB The Show, and NHL) Custom animations for each created player Celebrations Pregame/Postgame animations Run style Pick colors for cleats/gloves
Will Madden Add Flag Football
Madden should add flag football to the game to help integrate the game to the NFL. It would also close the gender gap in football, there are no girls in the NFL or madden flag football can close that gap. So try and get flag football into the game. Not only would it be really fun to play but it would have a social purpose as well.
User: [Edit - Admin.] Freeze Glitching During Online h2h games
This user needs to be banned. This same user [Edit - Admin.] has been doing this freeze glitch since Madden 22. This user has videos on Tik-Tok doing this same glitch to other users as well. EA wants you to report them but you can't if they block you. The player will also not show up in your recently met players until after the game which will result in a loss if you leave the game. Picture attached. Come on EA this player needs to be banned and this issue needs to be patched. [Image removed - Admin.]Career running on running backs only for whatever reason I don’t know
Yes, I’m playing the career mode on Madden. I’m trying to play as quarterback, but they keep having me login as a running back pretty much it looks like they kind of deleted my old profile profiles. I don’t know if there’s some type of update going on or whatever then if I try to play as wide receiver or any other position it only has me running running back regardless of which one I pick I built these profiles to play individual teams individual positions and they keep having me play running back with the same person over and over again I’m just so confused on why it’s happening right now. I thought we would be able to choose different positions but instead when I choose a different position, it still has me running on the running back profile that I’ve made.
WINS not Counting 2025
Football is a beautiful game, this EA spin on a video game is not. I recently stopped getting my wins to register in game. I have won 4 in a row and only shows 2. THE GLITCH SEEMS TO BE IF I WIN AT THE LAST SECOND VIA FIELD GOAL, it does not register. BUT IT SURE DOES REGISTER MY LOSES TO TEAMS that i get ridiculously outmatched at in terms of OVR. The game itself is frustrating enough, but if I’m playing games that won’t amount to any rewards that’s promised, then I am going to return this POS back to amazon. I can’t even find a legit live support despite the amount of $ EA makes, it’s foul. Y’all did me dirty, %100 returning it on amazon if I don’t get a moderator to help, i wasted my time playing the game and i’m not going to waste anymore time reading the same poop articles on here.
Incorrect Red Zone Statistics
If the opponent turns it over in your red zone, it counts as a failed red zone attempt for you. Happened in Madden 23 as well. Anyone else noticing this? You can reproduce this by taking note of your red zone attempts (check team statistics). And when your opponent turns the ball over inside your red zone (meaning they have more than 80 yards of field) it counts as a red zone attempt and a failed one at that. Even though you didn't even have the ball.
Online franchise saved, will it reload after uninstall (Xbox Series X)?
Hi. I'm currently running what has been a very long franchise created in online mode. Unfortunately, I need to do an uninstall/reinstall of Madden 24 (Xbox Series X) as it has developed some bugs. However, I would desperately like to be able to retrieve my existing franchise information after an uninstall. - a lot of time, patience, and effort has been put into it. I'm not doing anything with MUT (I find it boring.. sorry, EA) Is the data save and retrieval possible / will it happen if I uninstall/reinstall, or will I have to start a new online franchise from scratch? Would it be better for the sanity of keeping my long-term franchise that I just swallow the trouble and play with the bugs? Thanks very much! -- MarkDanielCA
