Madden 24 franchise mode wishlist

  1. Madden Franchise Mode players deserve better
  2. 1. Better Scouting player comparison Example when I’m scouting a QB who does he compare to, Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, Micheal Vick, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and so on. Same for other positions. 
    2. Real Coaching staffs, players who retire have the ability to become an offensive or defensive coordinator, then head coach
    3. Player Roles such as Franchise QB, Featured Back, Game Manager, Return Specialist, Deep Threat Receiver,  Fan Favorite, Draft Bust, The Future, Sack Specialists and so on.
    4. New commentary teams. We are tired of hearing the same lines year after year. A fresh voice is needed.
    5. Better physics and gameplay. Get rid of the current engine.
    6. Better stat tracking in franchise mode. Such as W/L record for starting QB, career 300 and 400 yard passing games, 4 and 5 TD PASS games, career 100-200 yard rushing and receiving yard games, career 3+ sack games, career 15 + tackle games, career 2+ INT games. Franchise Team Records, such as Career Team Record leaders, Franchise leader in pass yards, rushing yards, receiving yards, tds etc.
    6. Overall history of all teams W/L records, W/L record vs a specific team especially my overall record vs division rivals
    7. New team relocation cities, names, uniforms, and new stadium builds. More customization allowed.
    8. Player morale, if a player is unhappy with contract, team performance, have the ability to request a trade, or release. The decisions you make affects your whole team.
    9. Better presentation packages. Monday night games should have a different presentation package from a Sunday Night game, and Thursday night game. So different scoreboard designs etc.
    10. Commentary that reflects what you do on a weekly and yearly basis. So if I have a QB who through for 300 yards week one, in week 5 commentary should reference things he’s done in past games. If I have a QB who threw for 50 tds in a season, then commentary should reference what he did last season, reflect on winning awards, Super Bowl etc. Past madden commentary do not do this. If my team wins a Superbowl in 2023 then in year 2026 there should be a stat display showing previous SB winning teams, while playing in regular season or playoff games. Commentary referencing that would be great. When breaking a record whether it’s NFL, or a TEAM FRANCHISE RECORD, commentary should reflect that, a stat display should reflect that. On Madden 22 commentary rarely mention that you broke a record nor is there any stat overlay that you can see showing you broke a NFL or Team Record. Madden does not have team records but need to be added.
    11. Training Camp/ Position Battles,
    12. Post game shows/Interviews/ weekly press conferences and Super Bowl media day
    13. Storylines, throughout franchise mode on a year to year basis, for a specific players career. Ex Patrick Mahomes grew up not too far from Dallas. Maybe one day throughout his career he would want to become a DALLAS Cowgirl. Store lines should follow specific things like that. Free agent storylines, Last year playing storylines, contract year, coming back from injury storylines, record watch storylines, big rivalry game storylines and so on.
  3. Weekly power rankings would be nice to have in the game. To track how teams are doing on a weekly basis and year to year basis. 
    14. WE DESERVE SO MUCH MORE IN FRANCHISE MODE. After one season you’re pretty much bored of franchise mode because there’s not much to do in the mode.
    I would add a bunch more but I know y’all hate reading long paragraphs, and watching long videos but we deserve better.
    I don’t like SuperStar KO or MUT.
    MUT definitely need a matchmaking because there’s no way a 79 ovr team should be getting matched up against a 95 + overall team. That’s one thing that forces players to buy packs!! 
     Additions 
  4.    A real like GM mode. 
     So I’m a Gm of a team. The owner would have a list of demands like Win a SB in three years, or sweep a divisional rival, make the playoffs, win a playoff game, have a certain about of players reach the hall of fame, if I’m having a bad year, and I’m drafting top 5 the owner should have a day so on who I DRAFT. Owner should be like “We need a franchise QB” something to that extend, or we need to get a player maker at WR, or we need defensive help. Each decision you make in your franchise you get graded on your ability to be a GM. You should be able to be under contract as well. So if you’re doing good you can get rewarded with a new contract, or if you get fired you can go to another team, but not just any team. A team that will offer you a contract. So be careful of what team you’re picking. If you chose to be an owner then you should have a lot of control, have the ability to hire/fire GM’s. Sign sponsorship deals, tv contracts, and so on.

  • What I'd also like to see is major injuries having more of an impact. Like if you're RB broke his ankle. He shouldn't be able to come back on his first game and rush for 150-200 yards. Should have some type of debuff depending on what was hurt. For example that same RB losing speed or change of direction for a certain amount of weeks or a QB who broke his wrist having less throwing power. 

    It does seem like they do have a system where if a player gets a certain injury, they're more likely to re-injure whatever it was. (I've had multiple players that were fine for years but then after 1 big injury, they're getting hurt every few games.) 

  • I just want to see strong side/ weak side instead of right and left. Swap the lb and safety’s when wrong side changes I hate getting a pass rushing rolb that ends up in coverage most of the time.   Same with run stuffing safety’s

    next we need the ability to change the run / pass ratio. I build a run heavy team just for my rookie/developing qb to throw the ball 40 times. 

    last get better at schemes. Sometimes you need a power back and a receiving back. A vertical te and a blocker. You shouldn’t be penalized for having some package players.  I love deep threat receivers. But would love to develop a redzone beast that’s physical with height but they don’t develop as fast because my scheme needs all my receivers the same
