What Is Going On In Madden?
Dear EA Forums, I would like to express my problems with your stupid Madden games. Your team has destroyed the fun of Madden. Every time I get on Madden, it's the same crap every time. MUT is just a scam of microtransactions, Online H2H is not fun at all, and your attempt to add "personality" to the game has completely failed. Somehow, a 21-year-old game like NFL 2K5 has more soul and personality than a game like Madden 27. Your corporate greed and stupidity have millions of football fans angry, which is the reason why you get so many letters a day. Why don't you add things like The Crib from 2K5, Eras and first-person mode? Instead of rushing a game every year just to add roster changes and a few new positions in Superstar, take stuff from other good sports games and deliver. Like RTG in College Football. Millions of people are counting on you to get stuff done and give us a good Madden game for once. Instead of killing other companies like SEGA that were simply beating you in all aspects of a good, pure, and fun football game, actually do something for once and give us what we want. Put your desire for money aside and think about what every football fan wants. Instead of charging $70 for a copy-and-paste game, just give us what we want.Madden sucks
It completely shatters the illusion of playing a football simulation. When a video game relies on broken AI pathfinding rather than actual ratings, strategy, and numbers, it stops being football and just becomes an exercise in exploiting code. In real football, a defensive coordinator who repeatedly sends 5 or 6 rushers against a max-protection scheme would get carved up or fired. The offensive line would easily pick up the rush, the quarterback would step up into a clean pocket, and a receiver would be wide open in the vacated spaceCan’t play defense in franchise mode
For some reason when I start a franchise I can’t control the defense. I only get sim options. I can’t get out of it because I can’t highlight exit. What am I doing wrong? Is there something in settings that I need to turn off. The only way I can get out is to delete the game and reinstall it.Fantasy Draft in Franchise Mode should not Inherit Draft Picks
Why oh why would you let people do a fantasy draft only to find out they have 0 first round draft picks because they started out with the Packers... but they're not the Packers. They're a completely different team. Why then do you not at least give the commissioner of the franchise mode the ability to set the draft picks to even or move them around across the league? Seems like a simple thing but was overlooked. Please for the love of god fix this in the next version or patch it in this one and add it to the new one. Please!!!!How do I fix glitch, bug in my Seahawks franchise mode
Im trying to play my Seahawks franchise mode for Madden 25 on ps4 and am having problems playing it. For my mode it keeps referring my team as the Steelers instead of Seahawks. I've tried everything to fix it but it stills refers me as the Steelers instead of Seahawks. What do I do?Madden suggestions
Do coach career mode n owner career mode like y'all do face of franchise for coach n owner add NFL head coach 06 stuff can't control players you can keep franchise like it is you just adding two new features. If y'all do that you will see madden sales go up to give both Madden player and NFL head coach fan happyCreation Adjustments
A little background on me for what's it's worth. I got into Madden in college and have been playing every year since about 2010. I spend literally 100s of hours every year in the game, most of which is creating draft classes and editing rosters. I have never posted on this forum or any like it before. There are 2 changes that I would love to see come to the game which would significantly enhance not only my experience, but I think many gamers. First and I think this should come to Madden 26. Remove the max and min weights for build types. The real players already don't adhere to them so why should our created players. I would like my 240 lb TE or 235 lb QB to have the standard build. A 300 lb line man should be able to be muscular instead of heavy. Those kind of things. Second and I'm sure this couldn't be implemented until next year's game. Please allow more customization for the create a player faces. I'm even fine with keeping all of the face defaults for now and just allow us to change the skin color, hair, and facial hair of them. This would give a significant increase in the variability of players. Especially if we can add more hair options to match what real players have. Again, I think these features would significantly enhance the game. Devs please consider these changes, thanks!
Suggestion for Created Coaches in Madden NFL 26 Franchise Mode
Dear EA Sports Madden Development Team, I’m a longtime Madden player who enjoys Franchise Mode deeply, especially how coaching philosophies influence gameplay and player development. However, I’ve noticed that created coaches do not have a personal preferred offensive or defensive scheme like AI coaches do. This feels less realistic and limits immersion; real NFL coaches almost always bring a distinct philosophy to their teams. My suggestion is to allow created coaches to have a preferred scheme that influences: Playbook tendencies and playcalling behavior. Player development and usage based on scheme fit. Long term team identity that reflects the coach’s philosophy. Adding this feature would make Franchise Mode feel more authentic and rewarding, especially for players who want to role play a coach’s long term strategy. Thank you for considering this idea and for your ongoing work improving Madden. Sincerely, Madden Fan
Desktop Javelin Anti Cheat Error
I have been trying to solve the Javelin Anti Cheat error for mainly in Madden 25 on the EA app on my desktop. I have tried everything I've found suggested to fix it but nothing has worked. EA tech support has been no help. Any suggestions? I also get a dumper error saying....dumping failed log Internal error #4 C0000210 What is the point of spending money on EA games if I can't get support when something goes wrong!!!
Simulating practice
I have asked for this almost since release, and since you guys are onto making 27, I realize this is going to be ignored, but I am pissed off. I have carpal tunnel fairly severe, and I cannot play the game, i.e. run the players around the field, throw, etc., so I play in GM mode. But you guys have made it so that people have to actually run the plays in practice, which is stupid when someone is playing GM mode, and impossible for me. So, my strategy is always what the computer chooses it to be, and the computer isn't very bright. I want to be able to go into 'Weekly Strategy', Set my opponent offensive focus, set my opponent defensive focus, on a new screen, set my (up to 6) players to get extra work (exp) in practice, set my goals for HC, OC, DC, and personnel, and then click on simulate practice. The game would simulate practice then go to a screen showing who leveled up so you can level them as it usually does. The missing item is the 'Simulate Practice' button that was there at least up to Madden22 and then disappeared.Match Coverage
I use the Xbox 1 platform to play Madden 25. I have zone drops set to default and I do not make any adjustments in terms of shading up or down. When I play cover 3 seems (any cover 3 with seem flats) , cover 4 palms, or cover 4 quarters, it does not play match coverage but plays a regular zone coverage. I thought these plays the defenders were supposed to match/ man up on offense when they passed through their zone. What am I doing wrong? Getting killed online h2h. Thanks for the help. Very confused and frustrated here.Uniforms & Gear
hello, i’m a big madden gear head, one of my favorite things to do is put players in the stuff they actually wear in real games… unfortunately i can’t do that for everyone, for example, the lions players tend to wear a black untucked undershirt, now the untucked undershirt is a feature in the game, but it’s only team color. with that being said i would like to request, a new variant of undershirt. keep the same undershirts you guys just gave to us, but add 8 more (undershirt sleeveless untucked primary, undershirt sleeveless untucked secondary, undershirt sleeveless untucked white, undershirt sleeveless untucked black, aswell as 1/4 sleeve undershirt untucked primary, 1/4 sleeve undershirt untucked secondary, 1/4 undershirt untucked white, and finally 1/4 sleeve undershirt untucked black). this will add a whole other level of gear customization. also it would be really cool if you guys added a scrunched shooter sleeve, as players sleeves tend to scrunch throughout the game, i think that would add a nice detail to the gear.
