Supposed to be announced tonight, and I've read it may be Rob Gronkowski.

Von Miller? JJ Watt? Rob Gronkowski?

Hopefully they actually make franchise mode worth playing

Agreed, and the first vague details are out:

quote:

Take your team all the way in Madden NFL 17 with a renewed focus on Franchise mode, putting you at the center of your team’s Championship run. Arm your team for gridiron glory on both sides of the ball with the most balanced gameplay to date, features all-new ball carrier feedback cues, defender fake out mechanics, and an innovative authentic defensive AI system. Madden NFL 17 is the most complete Madden…ever.


Apparently Gronk is just the placeholder and the real cover will be revealed tonight.

They just need to balance all the other modes with Ultimate team. I can't get into MUT

Totally agree, I never touch any of that nor care to. Always been a huge fan of the franchise mode, and here lately they haven't done much to the mode. I'm in year 6 of mine with the Saints.

I think the feedback cues won't be bad if I'm reading it right. Makes it sound like the shot feedback in the NBA 2K games, letting you know if you did the juke too late, too early, etc.

Personally, I like this part:

defender fake out mechanics


Maybe I just suck at the timing (which the feedback will help), but I could never really bust off a long run and juke people

Most of my long runs were just from good running lanes then beating one man, but if you're right about feedback similar to shooting in 2k, then i'm on board with that.

I wish there were uploadable draft classes because having those fake players who are overpowered really annoys me. Every time i get multiple years in I get really annoyed with all of the fake players and lose interest

Yea it's getting to that point on mine. Just hit free agency part of the off-season and just about all of the real life players are in their 30's.

I agree about the draft classes. No idea why they can't do like 2K does and let the community create the draft classes so we could download them. I would never stop playing if that was an option.

Because people wouldn't buy EA's updated roster annually at $60 a pop.

I feel like I've been seeing the same Madden graphics for years now.

The menus were clunky as shite as well. Nothing drives me up a wall more when it takes 12 seconds between being able to pick my next play.
