Madden 26 Many Bugs/Issues

I'm playing on PS5 but I've heard these issues are on other platforms as well. 

  1. Sounds cut out randomly at kickoffs.
  2. Freezing and lagging while choosing or scrolling through playbooks.
  3. Raining in every single game. 
  4. Crashes.
  5. Random time outs used. 
  6. Bad performance in game and main menu.

    I am beyond frustrated at this point. EA knew about the “favorites” freeze issue before release, and yet here we are with a game breaking problem that makes franchise mode, one of the main reasons many of us buy Madden, this is unplayable.

    I’ve defended this series for decades, but I can’t keep doing that when the same issues keep slipping through. I’ve been a loyal fan for 32 years, and for the first time ever, I’m questioning if I can even continue playing.This needs to be addressed immediately. Not in weeks, not in months, NOW. We deserve a game that actually works at launch, especially after investing both our time and money year after year. Please stop dragging your feet and fix this.

  • 7. Weekly Recap shows your SNF game in broad daylight.

    8. Uniform selection does not always show you the Uniform for either team.

    9. Sideline cut scene of opposing team, announcer will state it's your coach in camera view on the sideline.

    10."Favorite" button doesn't work for either offense or defensive.

    Could you add TJ Watts sack celebration also. Been asking for awhile I feel it would be a cool touch to have personalized celebration for X factor and superstar players.

    Favourites freezes all the time. Regarding dynamic weather I never have a rain or snow game in franchise mode and I’m 3 seasons in with the Steelers. When selecting uniforms the 2nd team you choose to look at in the pre game menu won’t show their uniform. 

    new today I am losing crowd sound during games

  • Don't forget the bug with FREE FORM PASSING

     

    Free form passing doesnt work because the recticle keeps moving back..

     

    This makes the game unplayable because I base my offense around free form passing 

     

    $75 in the trash 🤬

     

    Why are more people not talking about this issue only seen a few others on this forum talk about it...

    Please fix this bug the starting LG Joe thuney on the bears is playing CB in superstar for some reason and it’s not like an appearance glitch it’s appearance and attribute too. Fix now!!!!

  • This is garbage. EA used to be at a higher standard, especially with the Madden series. We can complain about modes and features, but the game simply needs to work. 

    1. The game freezes on a loading screen after games and training sessions in Superstar more than 50% of the time. I eventually get to a blank menu screen and nothing further happens, leaving my only option to restart the game. Luckily my progress has been saved each time.  

    2. On more than a dozen occasions, while running “hurry up” offense, one of two issues occurred; I cannot hike the ball after selecting a play, or the ball hikes and my QB sprints backwards in a straight line, each time fumbling for a defensive score. 

    3. My player grade is decreased after the game ends. Bonus tasks such as “End the game with a B+ rating or higher” is completed, but grayed out on after game menu.
    4.  it’s frustrating trying to read the right side of the Superstar menu when there are constant pop ups for credits and awards that don’t stop blocking that side of the screen. 

    5. you have to blindly navigate the Character and Skills menus because of similar prompts to the above taking up the entire screen. 

    honestly, these simple issues are just frustrating and lead to an annoying experience in an otherwise great game. Seriously, I can design a much more intuitive system layout in five minutes. One that wouldn’t require loading scenes every time you agent wants to commend you on being named Offensive Player of the Week that cannot be skipped. I mean, the Sphere of Influence even has profiles circles overlapping the bottom menu. SERIOUSLY? What is the user design team doing? Bugs are one thing, but menu flaws? These are some elementary mistakes. 

    I hope EA thanks me for writing their task list for their next update.
