DEAR EA SPORTS & MADDEN TEAM
Dear EA & the Madden team, I mean no offense and if you do take offense, maybe it meant it will be well deserved. What ever happened to the most polished game yet in years? I mean right now if peopl...
@Jagwire27I absolutely agree that the presentation of Madden games is completely lackluster and has only been turned down over the past couple of years. EA should def show more compassion by adding quality presentation to the game.
What I highly disagree with is that Madden would need anything coming from 2K Games. NBA2K is not a contentor to Madden, nor is it a successor these days. NBA2K is the prime example of greedy developers that only have an interest for making cash.
Singleplayer modes in NBA2K have been tuned to become a "VC" farm only, for building your "MyPlayer" to be able to compete in MyPark online games.
For many years this has nothing to do anymore with the once outstanding sandbox basketball simulator NBA2k has been like 10 years ago. The A.I. nowadays is completely stupid in the game. No matter what elite teams you play, if you don't score 40pts a game you'll lose. None of the elite players will stand out in the game. And it's not needed because the focus from the great "MyCareer" mode has completely shifted to trading card modes and 5v5 online rank matches for e-sport purpose. Everything 2K is focussing their developement on is about how to make the most amount of profit out of NBA2K as a "live service" game.
Luckily Madden still has the advantage over NBA2K to have such kind of sandbox singleplayer with "Franchise" mode. If this is ever going to change in a way that NBA2K did, then EA would destroy the whole SP Madden community.
So no, EA should def absolutely not look at 2K in any way, they should only look past to their own Madden games from like 10 years ago! Nobody needs a rigged Storyline and nobody needs an open world.
What we need are fundamental Football mechanics that are working as they should, with a nice and closer to RL presentantion and sandbox offline and online gamemodes that keep us players interested in playing the game over a long period of time.
No reason to even complain anymore, they will not respond to anything. I don’t think they even show our ideas to the team. If they do then the team doesn’t care. I feel so bad for Madden. This game was a tribute to him and they just polished a *. Thanks EA for all the effort you have put in to the game. Please sell your rights to the game to someone else, it’s only fair to Madden and the true Madden gamers that deserve better.
