Anyone heard much about it? Trying to decide if I should trade in 16 and get 17.

I always get the newest versions of sports games. I like getting the rookies and "new features"
I feel like it'll be a whole lot better than 16

They finally brought back formation subs, and franchise mode gets a practice squad now.

Madden isn't the same since MUT came out. MUT is a money maker and has ruined the franchise.

Nah. Madden 17 actually looks really good this year. And I skipped 16 because I thought it wasn't worth it.

From what I have seen this looks to be the closest Madden has gotten to the PS2/Xbox days.

Madden is always fun for the first month or two of it's release. My issue with Madden comes after all the "lab rats" come out with the nano blitzes and the offensive money plays. It ruins the online aspect of it all and it just makes the game unplayable. I can't stand playing against the CPU in sports games as it's just not as fun but I cannot and will not subject myself to the constant cheese/money plays.

Meh. However true, most of that isn't that hard to overcome. Those guys get predictable. The quick out route that everybody loved this last season I ate up with cover 2. It's worthwhile if you find a good franchise.

I'm not gonna get 17 until later this year, gonna let the lab rats find the nanos, then keep an eye on MUTHEAD to learn how to counter them.

Pretty sure they never took it away?! I know you can do it in '16

I've always wanted a practice squad.... Some of the rookies I draft have superstar development, but are only like 60something overall, so they get cut lol

That's why you need to find an online league. I'm in a league that we play in every year and keep it fun to play. Typically guys are always willing to play 1 on 1 when they've already finished their weekly game.

Does anyone know if the practice squad allows for online play? It would be pretty heady if you could take your franchise team and play against another team in your league for practice.

They did have formation subs, but I think he's saying that it will now save it throughout instead of having to do it at the beginning of every game. At least I hope that what he's saying

EA Sports is live streaming 72 hours straight of guys playing MUT. Damn sad they are promoting MUT like this. ALL about the money I guess.

I know, I wish there was a way to trade those in.
