Superstar sim option?
Why is there no option to sim any games in superstar mode. It is an option in cfb 26 why is it not present in this game? And no I will not just turn the quarter lengths to one minute just to tank my stats and my teammates. I’m pretty sure you can sim in every other game mode so why not this one. It was also absent in the last madden game which made me avoid superstar mode altogether, I just don’t want to play every game of my entire career. Is that too much to ask for?Snow games in madden 26 are kinda unplayable
I was happy for the new weather but for superstar especially you have to hold rb/r1 the whole time because its fumble after fumble, its to the point you restart first play fumble I mean I get it somewhat but they do train for this to and its a little unrealistic I hope this gets adressed day one patch because this makes heavy rain and heavy snow almost unplayable thats on pro so it doesn't make sense on pro for me and the Ai to just drop passes in superstar especially when I cant control my teammates in superstar it just punishes me when they drop it especially in the playoffsWEAR AND TEAR
PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, let there be an option to turn off wear and tear on Superstar. We just want to have fun playing our career. Also lowering the max qb speed is lame as well but whatever. But please let us turn off this terrible wear and tear. Considering not even playing madden now because of itUnable to start a second Superstar Career or change my gear
So after playing my first season of superstar mode as a QB I decided I wanted to give another position a go. Whenever I press switch character to start a new career I have an attention message constantly flashing on my screen forcing me to restart the game. I was frustrated but didn't know what to do so I continued my QB career. That was until I unlocked a Jordan sponsorship and went to change my gear and discovered whenever I pressed change gear, an error message popped up. The only way I can view my gear is through the live events section however even then I can change almost nothing. Does anyone have any solutions, I've tried the basics like redownloading the game but it still wont work. Thanks for reading.Superstar Mode Custom Rosters
Hi NFL Fans, I need some help. I'm holding off buying Madden 26 until I know the answer to just one question. In Superstar Mode, are you able to use of your custom created and saved roster from your roster list or like Madden 25 are you limited only to either the default or a downloaded roster? I want to play for the Cowboys, but I want Josh Allen as QB, etc., etc. Appreciate your help.Superstar Draft Process
I have created my superstar and I am trying to start my career of through he combine and such, however when I go to the league screen it shows me the objectives to get drafted and get drafted top 5, but after that It doesn't take me any further to the draft process. Is there something I am missing to do to get my career started?Superstar Mode Changed My WR Build to RB and Moved him to Same team
Game Mode: Madden NFL 26 Superstar Mode Platform: [Example: Xbox Series S / PS5 / PC] Description: While playing Superstar Mode, my Wide Receiver Jump Specialist build unexpectedly changed teams mid-season and was switched to the same team as my existing Running Back build. The game also changed his position from WR to RB, even though his archetype and ratings clearly remain for a WR Jump Specialist. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a WR Jump Specialist build in Superstar Mode and progress through the season. 2. Have a separate RB build on a different team. 3. Mid-season, switch between the WR and RB builds. 4. After switching, the WR build may be moved to the RB’s team and change position to RB. Notes: - WR stats and abilities remain, but the position label is RB. - This happened without any trade request or position change choice from me. - Happened right after switching back from my RB build to my WR build. Impact: This disrupts immersion and progression because my WR build is now listed as a RB and on a different team without my consent. Depth chart and XP progression may also be affected. Request: Please confirm if this bug is known and if there is a workaround or patch planned. Additional Info: - Original WR build team: [Team Name] - RB build team: [Team Name] - Week in season when bug occurred: [Week Number] - No crash occurred, just an unexpGive us real playbooks in Superstar
Hi EA team, I have to say it’s really disappointing that in Madden 26 Superstar Mode (QB) we still can’t use our team’s actual playbook. Instead, we’re stuck with the same simplified “shared” playbook no matter which team drafts us. Why is this still a thing in 2025? The whole point of getting drafted by a specific team is to experience that team’s real offensive system. Yet you’ve removed that depth entirely and replaced it with a generic playbook that feels stripped down and boring. Is this just because of the playbook unlock mechanic? If so, that’s not a good excuse — you literally have a working system for this in College Football 26, so just use that framework. This feels like a lazy design choice that completely undermines the immersion and variety of Superstar Mode. Players want to feel the difference between being a 49er, a Chiefs QB, or a Ravens QB — not to run the same 15 generic plays over and over again. Please reconsider this decision, or at least communicate if there’s a technical reason for it. Superstar Mode deserves more than a “one-size-fits-all” playbook. [CM edit - CAPS]

At first in Madden 26, we didn’t have any Superstar abilities at all. Now that they’re in, I feel like they’re really inconsistent. On top of that, I’m losing almost every press attempt, even with 99 Press and Press Elite Gold. Is anyone else running into this?Superstar mode Film student needs to be fixed
Film student is showing late and at times is not showing at all. What's the point of film student if it shows late and sometimes doesn't show at all?? I can't make the adjustments needed, nor can I guest play right for me time if film student isn't working. It needs to be fixedSuperstar CB position
Sphere of influenceis rediculousfor defensein superstar mode. I play as a CB. Get As nearly every game. I have the #1 scoring defense, 2 of the top 3 sacks leaders and im tied for 1st with interceptions and my QB influence is 0 because giving up a 1st down is impacting me more than getting off the field on 3rd down. If the opposing team has 7 1st downs and give up 2 TD, which is a great defensive game, that's-410 points to my QB influence. But if I have a pass break-up, 2 tackle and 10 3rd stops and a bunch of great covers, it's only +235. And because my QB is at a zero (0), he is garbage. So im mostly playing on short fields because of turnovers or 3 and outs. Then the animation saying im doing a bad job when I just had an A+ game. We should get influence on all sacks and turnovers. Especially if we get penalized when someone else gives up a td. A 3rd down stop getting off the field is worth 3 times a 1st down given up to start a drive. And the QB shouldn't be so dramatically impacted on little things like a first down. In real life (which madden is supposed to be trying to get to) the QB loves to get the valley back and go to work on Offense. This is one of the worse parts about superstarGlitch in Superstar Mode not allowing games to be played
After finishing the preseason, I went to the next week and a glitch altered my “play game” selection tab and it is permanently stuck on just showing empty stats whenever I select it, as well as practices not showing up either. I kept going from week 1 to regular season week 10 without even seeing a game because of this glitch not letting me in, i tried restarting app but its not fixed. Please do something EA, im on an elusive half backCoaching Adjustments taken out of Superstar mode??
Just noticed after the recent update coaching adjustments are now missing from superstar mode. Of course I notice this the game my CB is going against a 99 rated WR but I can't follow him around because coaching adjustments have disappeared from the play call screen.Superstar Mode Issues
I have been a longtime madden player and keep being dissapointed every year with the quality of this mode. Please fix this or sell the Madden rights to a company that will actually honor the fans that buy your product. Even with the updated rosters it does not translate to this mode. Players stay on original teams from initial roster setup and do not appear on new teams even when starting career from scratch after update. When I run hurry up offense and audible a play the receivers run different routs than the one I selected. I still cannot simulate games. I do not know why this is still an issue. When the clock is under 10 seconds in the 2nd or 4th quarter the game will automatically simulate the game and not let me stop the clock. The simulation should let me have complete control of the clock. The game won't kick a field goal even in range and I will either lose because time expired or go into overtime if tied. The game automatically goes into hurry up offense if I have the QB run the ball and slide. There should be some kind of generic story element for player satisfaction. Not to the degree of NBA2K but at least something to keep players invested. I would like some user input over trade and draft considerations, sometimes after simulating an offseason I am stuck with substantially low rated players or even below minimum number of players. Also how am I not able to negotiate on my own contacts, either money, options or years. Its dissapointing and frustrating. It appears to have improved but over fumbling is still a problem in the snow. Please consider these changes for future updates. Thank you
