Issue 8 – Subject: The Playbook System Needs a Complete Overhaul

Summary:

The current playbook system in both College Football and Madden is outdated, glitch-prone, and severely limited in customization. When creating custom playbooks, adding too many plays or making small errors often causes the entire playbook to glitch or reset. This restricts creativity, realism, and gameplay depth.

Preferred Fixes:

Option 1 – Upgrade the Existing Playbook System:

If EA wants to keep the current framework:

• Increase play count per situation to at least 50 plays per scenario (1st & 10, 3rd & short, etc.).
• Enable full custom play creation, including:
• Complex option plays, custom RPOs, or misdirection run schemes.
• Detailed pass targeting logic: Let users assign percentage targets for each receiver (e.g., WR1 = 95%, TE = 3%) so the CPU knows who the primary read is.
• Pass urgency settings: Add a system where users can indicate how fast the ball needs to get out (e.g., 60% urgency triggers QB to throw early or scramble if needed).
• Throw type preferences: Allow users to set whether the QB should lob, bullet, or touch pass by default based on the route.

Option 2 – Fully Revamped Playbook Engine:

If EA is open to rebuilding the system:

• Remove the limit on how many plays you can add per situation.
• Allow play-by-scenario scripting:
• Add layered scenarios like: 3rd & short (≤1 yard) triggers specific plays (e.g., QB Sneak or Fullback Dive).
• Tag plays by attributes, not just formations:
• Group plays into categories such as:
• Rollout passes from Shotgun
• Rollout passes from Under Center
• High-percentage targets to WR X (filtered by formation or down/distance)
• Intelligent sorting & organization:
• This prevents users from needing to scroll through dozens of formations to find one concept.
• Users could filter plays based on objective: get the ball to WR1, deep middle attack, QB movement, etc.

Why This Matters:

This level of customization brings playbooks closer to real-life football game-planning. It also improves the simulation aspect of Franchise, Road to Glory, and CPU vs CPU play. By empowering users to create detailed, smart playbooks, EA can unlock a much deeper and more rewarding experience.
