Give us real playbooks in Superstar
Hi EA team,
I have to say it’s really disappointing that in Madden 26 Superstar Mode (QB) we still can’t use our team’s actual playbook. Instead, we’re stuck with the same simplified “shared” playbook no matter which team drafts us.
Why is this still a thing in 2025? The whole point of getting drafted by a specific team is to experience that team’s real offensive system. Yet you’ve removed that depth entirely and replaced it with a generic playbook that feels stripped down and boring.
Is this just because of the playbook unlock mechanic? If so, that’s not a good excuse — you literally have a working system for this in College Football 26, so just use that framework.
This feels like a lazy design choice that completely undermines the immersion and variety of Superstar Mode. Players want to feel the difference between being a 49er, a Chiefs QB, or a Ravens QB — not to run the same 15 generic plays over and over again.
Please reconsider this decision, or at least communicate if there’s a technical reason for it. Superstar Mode deserves more than a “one-size-fits-all” playbook.
