Superstar issues

Dear EA Team,

I would like to address several frustrating issues I’ve encountered in Madden 26 Superstar that significantly take away from the experience. The core of the game is fun, but it feels full of small, immersion-breaking problems that add up quickly.

  1. When I run a no-huddle, I select a play and the correct routes are shown in the play art, but once the snap happens, my receivers run completely different routes.
  2. Every receiver on my team has a Superstar Development trait, which makes it feel completely unrealistic and unbalanced.
  3. When I roll out of the pocket, instead of adjusting or blocking, my receivers just stand around and watch me get hit, even if i playmaker them into the direction of the defenders.
  4. It’s frustrating that I cannot create multiple players for the same position at once.
  5. When I try to customize my uniform before a game, the game doesn’t show what the jerseys look like, so I have no idea how they actually appear on the field.
  6. During a playoff overtime game, once regulation ended, the commentators went completely silent until I stepped back onto the field — almost as if no commentary lines were ever recorded for that situation.
  7. I cannot see the injury report, and I also don’t have access to league-related news.
  8. After switching teams, I am still stuck with the same short, watered-down playbook of around 60 shotgun plays. This is beyond disappointing. CFB 26 had this right — you could’ve literally just copy-pasted that system.

I also find the whole situation a bit strange. It seems like the company is trying to save on testing and instead relies on customers to test the product and provide feedback. Of course, we are not compensated for this; we pay for the finished product and are expected to report bugs that went unnoticed after a year of development.

These issues make the game feel unpolished and unfinished. The gameplay foundation is strong, but the lack of attention to detail really hurts the overall experience.

Thanks
