So it has the same animation bugs that literally every game I’ve played in the last 10 years has had and you are calling them out for that as some gotcha? Lol

GTAV is the most expensive game ever made and has been on the market for 7 years and STILL has those issues and you’re shitting on Madden for it? Lol this guy.

At least shite on it properly - Gameplay, stat recording, lazy franchise mode - not the long hanging fruit of all gaming.

Yea, Madden leaving out field lines is like GTA leaving out weapons. No excuse.

Even the cover art this year is the most half assed shite I’ve ever seen

I tried the 10 hour trial and uninstalled it after 2 games. Such a garbage game.

The only improvement I noticed was the stadium/crowd noise and pregame presentation. Player models looked terrible and gameplay just feels wrong.

If anyone needed more proof that Madden is a joke:

i posted that on the previous page. apparently, it's not a good enough reason to shite on the game according to one individual in here.

Well the Vegas stadium looks awesome, was worth the DL for the intro of it.

I checked out The Yard a bit it's pretty cool but will get old fast. Playing CB is tough against user WR's.

It's terrible. The new menus are nice, about all I got. Gameplay is the same trash as always.

Yeah, I remember 2 or 3 years ago folks were pissed about the stale franchise mode and EA responded that it would be a focus in the future of the series.

Fast forward to 2020 and they proceeded to not touch the mode at all and then suddenly act like they were oblivious that it was an issue.


You mean E "Sim City needs to be online to work" A would lie? I'm shocked. EA is suck a fine, upstanding company that I would never expect them to do something dishonest or underhanded for MONEY.

Pre-ordered and started up my trial. First of all, they slowed the menus down significantly the first couple days wasting half of your trial time. I played a little MUT then decided I wasn't gonna spend my life on it so I stopped playing(rarely spend money in these modes).

One thing I hate about the gameplay is how the slowed down User LB's & Safeties. That was one of the few things that separated players skill wise. Very similar to how 2k has improved CPU defense to encourage off-ball defense so any kid can pick it up and win some games.

I'll probably start a franchise with my buddies so we can play. I like the new running game but passing is OP.

Probably gonna play in the park on 2k with my friends and play FUT. At least in FUT 4 hours a week can keep you relatively close with the top squads. MUT requires ~2 hours a day.

Absolute deal breaker. All this will do is encourage players to become D Line users, which requires no skill whatsoever. Wasn't gonna play this game anyway, this just affirms my decision to quit Madden.

This is why you should NEVER

They very much pushed for everyone to use Dlineman. They added right stick skill moves for Dlineman that are OP.

One good thing compared to last year is QB spy's being more effective. The Escape artist ability is so stupid though and is the only way you can scramble with your QB, but last year people would snap the ball then start running around like crazy. Now the spies keep up and actually take good angles when you hit RS for them to rush the passer.

Madden shite the bed when they abandoned franchise mode.

Everyone wanted them to update it, they said frick your and didn’t touch it.
