Purchased my first Madden after 8+ years. Disappointed.

I haven't purchased a Madden game in well over 8 years. To come back to a game with as much bugs and technical issues as Madden 26 is a MASSIVE let down. At this stage/years into making these games, how are simple things like losing crowd noise at kickoff, no use of "favorites" , lagging screens still a thing in 2025?

Why is the Patriots fog horn playing on 4th down?

Why are Weekly Recaps showing SNF games in broad daylight?

The list goes on, and you had the audacity to release this early.  Does EA even read these forums or am I wasting my time?

  • I totally agree! As far as I can remember, the Patriots Foghorn has always sounded on 3rd Down in previous versions of the Madded Game. This is the first year that EA has moved the horn to 4th Down. In some real world instances, the foghorn might be triggered on important 4th Downs when the opposition is going for it.
