Madden feedback

Will madden ever be playable again? It is utterly ridiculous that this is our only option when it comes to football simulation games. EA is clearly only using this game franchise to suck its consumers dry of all their money and time without delivering a satisfactory product. EA is going to keep getting bailed out by the pay to win customers for the next few years, but i know that even they will get tired of the abuse eventually. Madden used to actually be fun back in the 2000s and early 2010s, now it’s just an obvious money grab that doesn’t even try to give customers a product that’s entertaining or satisfactory in any way. I know that there are thousands if not hundreds of thousands of people who feel exactly like i do, and EA obviously doesn’t care. They’re going to keep delivering the bare minimum until everybody wises up and stops buying these pathetic games. For starters, it is completely based on animations. There is no real possibility for improvised plays, everything is predetermined whether it’s passes or runs. It is now impossible for receivers to catch a ball in 1 on 1 no matter how tall they are or how talented. The CPU ball carriers never run through the wide open holes that the blockers make. Literally never. 9/10 times the running back will make a 90 degree turn and get tackled when there is a wide open hole in front of them. Meanwhile CPU quarterbacks will go 35/40 with 5 td’s and 500 yards every. Single. Game. This is no longer a simulation football game, it is a joke. And don’t even get me started on madden mobile, it’s an absolute disgrace that gives you 30 minutes of playing times before making you wait 5 hours to let your stamina regenerate. I could go on listing the problems with madden but i would literally be here all day. I can’t wait til the NFL moves on from EA and partners with a company that actually cares about its customers. I’m an extremely reasonable person, so the fact that i felt the need to write this just proves how despicable EA has become. So many people are tired of this game franchise, and when EA realizes they fumbled the opportunity to make a fun and profitable game it’s gonna be too late. This company makes me so angry that it’s hard to even put it into words. Everything EA touches turns to crap. They know what they’re doing and they don’t care because they’re meeting their target numbers. Keep ignoring your fanbase and see what happens. EA should be ashamed.

  • As Im currently playing Madden 24 (i have no clue why) I find myself refraining from spiking my PS5 controller and completely shattering it. Its almost unplayable, and Ive noticed that the Gen 5 versions of these games are absolutely *. Its a disgrace how the CPU is almost predetermined to beat you not matter how well you play, and If you get lucky enough to have somewhat of a fair game, right at the last 3 minutes of the game, the cheating * CPU gets a magical surge of energy where they suddenly play lockdown defense and deflect every pass, and stop every run until you throw a pick. Its * *. My QB will be having a magnificent game, and then throw his first interception in the 4th quarter when im either within 3 points, or in the lead. Its blood boiling and EA doesnt give enough of a * to actually put the work in and change the game, let alone hire some people who actually know the game and can help with the physics, rather than some nerd who codes and just got a degree. Its a * simulation that isnt even a simulation. Since EA did what every scamming business is great at, and prevented anyone else from even obtaining rights to create an able-body Football game. Like 2K.

    instead we get this half *, “MUT” money driven, Poor simulated, unrealistic AI joke of a game and its infuriating a company can be so comfortable with years and years of mediocrity for fans who spend money yearly just to enjoy a football game. This * is asinine how * this game is. I can go all day.

    Only game in town. EA will never get off their greedy and lazy A and improve a thing as long as they are not threatened by any competition. People have to stop buying their roster updates. Just look at the comments this time every year. Enraged people, but they will be raging this time next year, because they still buy this garbage

  • I am enjoying the game. I play Off-line franchise all-madden. More immersive than M23. Actually, I am currently in year 2042 and still learning nuances to the game. At 65 years old, I am not much of a stick guy, my game is based upon scheme, speed and a QB with a cannon. I also spend a lot of time analyzing other team rosters to determine if a player fits my scheme/cap friendly and also front office duties to maximize team revenue. The game is a blast!!!
