MacReady Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 (edited) We are six months away from Madden 19. I read that the Madden director has promised huge updates to Franchise mode. If he delivers, I'll be buying it. If he doesn't deliver, I'll buy madden 18 used when it's under 20. Cover player is probably going to be Nick Foles. Probably.

There would be serious backlash for that imo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFlaccoSeagulls Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 If they keep going on the path they're going, I won't be buying M19 for the first time since like Madden 2005 or something like that. This year's game sucked, and the direction they're trying to take everything in terms of competitive play + MUT is just a joke. They need to make some serious improvements to the gameplay and the exploits in order to make this game even remotely viable to play online again.

showtime Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 I've skipped out on the previous 2-3 Madden titles and just recently got Madden 18. One of the things I don't like about this gen in general is the way the running feels. It's like when my running back runs into a teammate, his body does this weird bending animation and I can barely move. I never remember this being an issue on the previous gen (360/PS3), but it's been like this since Madden 25 on the current gen consoles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you trying to spring through gaps or hitting RB (Xbox) to "get skinny"? I believe the attribute "ballcarrier vision" has a lot to do with how your RB behaves around the LOS as well. Also, now way that rumor is real, c'mon bro Edited February 12, 2018 by cddolphin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I really hate about Madden is how none of the devs have ever explained the ratings and exactly what they do. It opens the doors for conspiracy theories, incorrect articles and beliefs, and just a bunch of nonsense. I've seen articles that say that BCV is only relevant for CPU backs and their ability to "find the hole" effectively and quickly. I've seen articles that say it helps backs "not get stuck" on OL when they're trying to run through the hole. Nobody knows what is accurate, because the Devs don't put out any documentation laying out what exactly these attributes do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or at least BCV is part of the equation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This whole gongshow would be solved if EA's Devs just took one business day to put this all in a document and post it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not really sure how Leonard Fournette stacks up vs other running backs in the game, but he seems pretty good so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danger Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Madden Where $60 a year will get you slightly better graphics, a roster update, and some of your previously most enjoyed features taken out only to be re-added 3 years later. There's a reason I haven't bought Madden since Madden 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easily one of the most outlandish rumors I've read about a video game and can't imagine people thinking it would be true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is literally a 0% chance of this happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
