@cashmachine28 as I've said these are 2 entirely different games in 2 entirely different game engines. It has nothing to do with features being enabled or disabled.
The ps5/xsx game is in their newer game engine.
The ps4/x1/pc game is the same as its been for a decade.
Nba 2k23 just announced pc will again have the previous gen version of the game as well. They seem to follow madden each year. Unfortunately they seem to put pc in the same category as switch, for some reason. They discuss them alongside each other like they are remotely close to the same thing.
Anyway. Please don't fall for the fieldsense nonsense. They said the same thing last year with GameDay.
The fact is; they are not giving us the newest version of the game. We will have the ps4 app. The one with cardboard stick figures on the sideline.
Don't let them mention features like fieldsense. If that were the only difference, no one would care. NOTHING is the same between pc and ps5/xsx versions. The AI is different. Lighting, shaders, all assets, geometry. Everything. Its all made for hardware over a decade old.
MLB the show, nba 2k, and madden, have been games I've owned for decades.
However, I haven't played them in years because of this.
PC is the fastest growing platform. We are about to be 2 full generations ahead of console hardware, and the fact that devs are doing this is disgraceful.
Console people will say "it's because of the small player base".
That's nonsense. The small player base is because NO ONE IS GOING TO SPEND $60 TO PLAY MADDEN 13 FOR THE 10TH YEAR IN A ROW

@CBlan1224 It’s not two different engines, it’s all Frostbite. An engine that every non-sports division of EA has used to deliver next-gen experiences on PC.
- 4 years ago@KWRussell Yep exactly. It's been Frostbite 3 for a very long time and still is with Madden 23 no matter what platform it's on. This whole situation is complete BS but we don't need to misrepresent the truth in order to make this obvious.
- 4 years ago@KWRussell you're right it must've been something about the physics engine I was reading and my imagination took it from there. Hey, it's all we have to go on, after all.
But seriously, that makes it make even less sense. If madden truly is scalable and they have 2 entirely different games instead of scaling it.
It should be scaled well above console.
