Re: Custom Playbooks Not allowed in H2H?

@Pankratz02 

I'm afraid I don't have any info on that. If anything changes and we have some news to share, we'll definitely let everyone know. 

If no custom playbooks, than can you please "very soon", provide the ability to save custom audibles.  To me, it seems that the default audibles are super redundant for each formation.  You get a slants, inside zone, four verts, and some sort of PA that rarely is effective.  This currently does not allow for much variety in the game.  With 300+ plays available in each playbook, about 40 of them are actually getting used....over and over. 

As a dude who has owned every Madden game since the sega genesis... my personal opinion is, that removing custom playbooks was a bad move.    

Thanks for listening 

Made the top 1300 on h2h regs with my custom plays books on madden 24 please bring it back. Theres no variety of plays without it. Cant call it an advantage of any sort, when plenty guys in the top 1000( the best of the best)  run only 1-3 of the same plays or formations for the entirety of a game. Why should we be penalized for creating our own playbooks with a feature that is provided?  @EA_Kent 

You take away a feature and then offer a new one in the hopes will be distracted from the issue at hand...

"Custom Playbooks will NOT be available in Online Head-to-Head (Regs) or Play-a-Friend (PAF) at launch this year... Yes Madden gamers, you read that right - we are planning to add the ability to save custom audibles that will carry-over from game to game in an early title update."

Are you going to put the ability to save custom audibles and get that to completion before we can play our friends with custom playbooks?

Really?

It's like every year a surprise on what you will take out as a feature.

Too many spammers out there to play online h2h and then be unable to create my playbook to fight fairly is a serious issue with the game!

Why don't you start refunding us our money if you are going to start taking features away from Madden or tell us up front before we buy what's no longer in the game the year before?

It makes me play with same playbook no matter what and not using custom 

@EA_Kentit's so frustrating that the reply from did nothing to answer our questions about when the custom playbooks would be available to use. Saying they won't be available at launch was obvious at that point. Then they move onto the next topic about saving custom audibles as if they answered us in any way. Are they working on it for the next patch? That would be actual helpful info.

I need a refund if custom playbooks will not be available for H2H play. That’s ridiculous.

Add this back please, I haven't even played a game yet because of this!

Thanks for y’all’s response, very appreciated from all us EA fans. There’s no rush but we’ll love the day we’re able to use our custom playbooks again. It adds more authenticity to the gameplay experience overall. 

There is very much a 'rush' need to get this fixed and restored.   

Can you bring back customer playbooks for H2H play? Makes many of us not want to play and seriously rethinking future Madden purchases if this can't be fixed soon. 

Please tell them to put 5 minutes back into the game! 

The majority of people want custom playbooks back for h2h..

that’s what we paid for, so can we get a refund for those who want custom playbooks for h2h???

I am a little confused. Can you please explain what you mean by "custom audibles that will carry-over from game to game?" Also, any time frame on when we can start using our team custom playbooks? Thanks in advance.

WHEN WILL Online Head-to-Head, Custom Playbooks WILL be available in Online Head-to-Head Madden 25??

This is absolute trash...  Like many, I only play Online H2H and have always relied on Custom Playbooks...  Why on earth would you take that away?  I literally bought a PS5 and Madden 25 (for the ultimate experience) only to find this out the hard way.  So F'n disappointing.  I hope you guys (at EA) do the right thing and bring this feature back (like ASAP); otherwise, (again) like many, there's no use for me to play Madden any longer (after years of being a loyal player/costumer).  Wholly inexcusable...  (The game has already been out a month, the fact that you haven't yet reinstated this feature totally blows.)

Refund Should be for the ones who bought this crap that cant use custom playbooks online rank matches

Wow and who's brilliant idea was it to not allow custom play book. Sure, that if you would have mentioned that this feature would not be available your sales would have dropped, why is it the you guys disable the best features. Do you plan on bringing back the custom playbook feature on H2H?
