I am curious as to how you think the developers can improve zone play however.

@KabmaSo what was your worst version? Mine was in the early 2000's when you could sub a kicker in and throw for five thousand yards. I still have the P.C. rom in the basement because it was such a trainwreck. Plus the FB didn't lead block for crap. Flash forward a decade plus and well the FB still doesn't lead block for crap.
I understand that programing a game like NBA 2K is different than Madden...more moving parts in football...11 on 11 is more difficult than 5 on 5....but that doesn't mean the level of depth of the only "simulation" football game allowed on the market needs to be sacrificed.

@rjwil73Honestly can’t say I had a worse version. I enjoyed the game when it came out on Sega Genesis in the late 80s before PlayStation. The men were stick figures and they felt like they were on skates, but it was fun.
It was not close to the real thing but I enjoyed it.
You mentioned full backs blocking...well let me tell you. I stopped playing every mode other than MUT. My reason is because I want to get players that’ll play the way their supposed to. So in Mut, if I have a full back that doesn’t block well, then I can easily find a full back that blocks much better.
I get that we want the game to be much better...but many of the complaints I hear from players are issues that are common in real football. For instance...it has always been a football tactic to stress zones...because only so much space can be guarded at once. Which leaves other space open.
I get the complaints...but at a certain point they can be a little unproductive- EA_Blueberry5 years ago

What did you like about NFL 2K5?
From the sound of it this year's release of Madden NFL 21 isn't meeting your standards and I can sense that from the frustration you're all conveying in here. Can you go into detail what the top things in this year's title are bugging you and top 10 features you want to see added in future titles? This year's game had 30% more players at launch than last year (Madden NFL 20 was the best selling Madden title of all time), so while the team is acknowledging there is a commitment to make Franchise mode better it also is great news to see more players logging into the game and also logging in more often throughout the entire year.
