BRING BACK OLD MADDEN MOBILE 16

I have a proposal that I know will be extremely profitable for madden mobile. I am about to graduate college with a bachelor in finance and I have played since madden mobile 14 and madden mobile 16 was the most perfect version. I know you can’t just re-upload a old version but the live-events, sets, auction house, and cards were perfect. Here is exactly what I think you guys could do and I believe that it would significantly increase profitability.

1. Bring back the 2016 live events. For example the gauntlet game mode was extremely fun grinding for that gronk, of course you could change it to kelce or whoever. 
2. Bring back the old sets format. I loved the old sets where you collect rings or signs from game modes to complete sets and it was based on luck. I also was a huge fan of the trophies that were used for quick sells (small, medium, and large). I think that was a hugely exciting and i remember when i got one for 500k was so fun. 
3. Bring back the auction house. I know there was a bot problem, but I think there can be ways around that. It was so fun to finally be able to buy the player with coins after grinding for a long time. 
4. CHANGE THE OVERALLS BACK. 99 is as high as it needs to go. We also should not have upgrading players, a fixed overall card is much simpler and I believe is a better alternative. 
5. The team attribute boosts from 2016 were also a very cool concept. Certain cards had +2 speed which was added to the whole team or certain players (did not change the cards overall though). I would love to see this back. 
Obviously there are still areas that can be updated from 2016 (graphics, displays, etc.)

These are the major things that myself and many other players would love to see back. Now lets talk profitability because there is no game without money. I would suggest making it a paid app ($2.99-$4.99) and make a new application on the app store so everyone has to pay for the app and cant just have it downloaded already. Here are my other suggestions.
1. leave the cash system, to buy specialty packs (seasonal, promotional)

2. Have the classic pro packs that can be bought with coins or cash that have a chance at good cards. This had a gambling effect where people would buy that pack a lot for a chance at a 75+ overall player. 
3. Have packs that are only purchasable with USD or whatever currency users have. 
4. Have a option to watch ads in the store for 5 cash so you can generate revenue there as well. (Capped at 2-3 per day)

5. Have promotional live events. I believe these changes will significantly increase users so higher traffic will lead to higher advertising costs for companies advertising on the game. For example a State Farm live event, etc. 

Thank you for reading, I know it’s a lot. Im very passionate about that 2014-2017 version of madden mobile and I know a lot more that are the same way. I know this can be very profitable please let me know if you will consider. Feel free to reach back out to me I’d love to help in any way.

  • do bring back mm16 

    dont make it pay to play

    ea will make enough revenue from just all of the returning customers

  • Very true im just saying id even pay for it to come back lol. It was such a good game. 

  • @mcFastrey Please. Respond. EA we know you love money and we know this would rake in loads of cash for y'all. This would maybe be the smartest move in the history of your company as far as EA Mobile games go. From the people. Please.
  • Yes I agree but I think they should completely take a step back and bring back the old engine cause the new overdrive engine since Madden 19 hasn’t been good at all, and yes the pay to win is bad and they really should just all together bring back eveything 15-18 had to offer with ofc improved ways of doing them because you can’t go back in time and literally have an exact copy but yes bring back earnable madden cash, sets and especially auction house and those 99 overalls as the highest with the really good good players having stats above 99 which was a cool addition but it sucks because we all know Madden is not smart enough to look at these replies and actually sit down and realize how much money they’d make to quite literally bring back the old engine and whole Madden 15-18 experience

  • @mcFastrey This is ideal. They won’t go back though unfortunately, they seem to want to run this game into the ground. Making the game cost money in the App Store is a fair negotiation if they create a madden mobile 16 type of game with auctions. The season mode used to reward you with coins, they should bring that back as well.
