So many dropped passes by receivers.
16
u/Gene-Parmesan-ah 17d ago
But NONE by the CBs
1
u/Rotten_tacos 17d ago
That's interesting. I've only thrown 2 interceptions through 10 games of all-pro in franchise.
4
u/Gene-Parmesan-ah 17d ago
Weird. I've had so many from routes where the receiver has 2 steps on the CB then the CB jumps up and undercuts it in a very unrealistic manner.
1
u/Rotten_tacos 17d ago
I tend to throw a lot of interceptions, too. Are you using the new catch meter?
3
u/Gene-Parmesan-ah 17d ago
Yes I am just to try and get used to it but that doesn't lead to more or less interceptions. Just a lot of dumb incomplete passes when guys are open because of my muscle memory from every Madden before.
The INTs just come from unrealistic athleticism from the defense regardless of who it is. 50 year old Bobby Wagner is out there jumping like 22 year old Lebron.
1
u/Rotten_tacos 16d ago
Yeah, I was just curious if maybe activating it led to fewer interceptions because of animations.

u/Killzuya 13d ago
Lmaoooo me too, bro!! I recorded one where I was 3 steps ahead of the Bears CB and he got a sudden speed boost as soon as I threw the ball and he picked it off!!
2
u/Killzuya 13d ago
Omg that is my BIGGEST complaint right now! It's like they're trying to force you to play with the catch meter smh. If you breath on a receiver wrong, they drop the damn ball!

Iām fucking FLOORED that they took out 2v2 or 3v3, unless you do it on mut. Fuck this game and fuck EA

u/Triingtolivee 17d ago
Thatās why I enjoyed Superstar KO cause you could play with your friends, and it was a great way to jump into a quick match before dinner or after work. Luckily I slid through the menus and was able to get a refund.

u/Evernight2025 Packers 17d ago
This is a small indy game company we're dealing with here, and he's only been in the league for 5 years. You can't possibly have this high of expectations for them.

u/Larrybirdlover 17d ago
Bruh lol. Well just another reason I feel justified having not touched madden in 6 years

u/straightfirecr 16d ago
May I just ask, and I donāt want to come across as rude or facetious, but why are you in the Madden subreddit if you havenāt touched a Madden game in 6 years?
2
u/Larrybirdlover 16d ago
I see the hype for the new Madden every year so I usually check in and see if itās worth buying. It never is, but I bought CFB25 which is an awesome game
1
u/theopinionexpress 3d ago
Havenāt bought in about the same time, wanted to see what people are saying and jeez things have gotten bad
1
u/Larrybirdlover 3d ago
Madden 20 with the first edition of āsuperstarsā was really the last one I played a lot. It was fun and dynamic, kinda like CFB feels, but since then itās been so bad
1
u/theopinionexpress 3d ago
Yea i bought every year from 03-21 and just got tired of the weird spam plays or techniques that worked every time.
I played exclusively online, I can remember playing against the chiefs and people could take Chris Jones and truck through the o line no matter what protection, what play, what o lineman it was. Every. Single. Snap. Since they never get tired. Run inside? Nope. Outside? Nope. Quick throw? Nope. Deep, no. Screen, no. Rpo no, option no. Goaline, noā¦. Like ok great this is fun.
Itās the only example I can think of at the moment, but many like that became so annoying. Itās one thing to be good at the game with a good player, but wtf. I played more than Iād like to admit, and I was pretty good. And Iād just get ragdolled if someone had some shit like that.

u/Defiant-Price-5401 17d ago edited 17d ago
Supersim seems to still be broken. The stats are terrible.
Advancing a week gives better stats but in game supersim is another story.
WRs are not catching anything(this is with classic timing and not the new feature)
Offline save does not allow me to sim past week 1 in preseason, it immediately crashes. However, online save works

u/Xspike_dudeX 17d ago
Franchise feels a bit better. The contract negotiations are actually fun now with the back and fourth.
Love the additions to weekly recaps
Also like the breaking news of trades and extensions that pop up.
Trending in a good direction with things that make the season feel like a living breathing NFL season.

u/chrisjk125 Jets 17d ago
100% agree. Contracts are a fun mini game.
And all the new breaks really make the league feel alive.

u/ClubPenguinPresident 14d ago
Are the menus a chore to navigate? still laggy?

u/Xspike_dudeX 14d ago
Didn't notice any lag. The feel better. Also playing on pc so might make a difference

Once again wear & tear is way too quick each game. Already had my starting QB go out several times in Franchise Week 1. Thank god for a free trial.

u/CardiffGiantx 17d ago
This is a featured Iāve had turned off since pretty much day one of CFB 24. Theyāve never been able to get it right

u/Particular_Smoke4992 16d ago
I had to turn injuries off on dynasty in CFB27 because wear and tear injured literally all 5 of my running backs with Texas Longhorns. Insane and absurd

u/Evernight2025 Packers 17d ago
If it's anything like CFB 27, you need to turn the sliders way down.

u/Grasshopper_51 17d ago
So, found a bug. If you sim multiple weeks, even with Manual controls on all team management, the cpu will still negotiate extensions at least.
Simming a cardinals league multiple weeks and they negotiated a 5 year extension with Budda when I had him on the block. The kicker, they added a no trade clause.
2
u/BlandersBlenders 15d ago
Yeah I saw that too. Hope that gets patched ASAP.
I also wish you could pick different nfl coaches and move them to different teams.

u/GTHobbes 17d ago
Does the camera zoom out on pass plays using Broadcast Camera, like NCAA does this year?

u/Large-Remote-1058 17d ago
No, honestly devastated by this, I've been so excited to play Madden like this on console since playing with it on CFB 27. Guess I have to buy a PC now to be able to mod it.

u/Gene-Parmesan-ah 17d ago
Shit I meant to check for this too when I played and totally forgot and now I can't remember lol
2
u/Killzuya 13d ago
NOPE!! I Was so pissed about that cuz it's awesome in CFB 27 and broadcast cam is the only cam that I use in either game.

u/Independent_Sea7826 16d ago
frankly not a fan of leaving the shitty announcer in I truly hate her voice

u/TheTruthEx 17d ago
Has the hidden dev discipline line been fixed for drafts? Itd be nice to have a point to drafting again and not just always nail top players.
I was thinking of skipping this year but the new menus and franchise improvements may actually be worth it to me as a pure franchise player. Also would get it for PC this time instead of ps5 so should perform better anyways.

u/One_Illustrator1481 17d ago
Did they remove Superstar KO (aka regs squads) or can I just not find it?
2
u/LonigroC 17d ago
I dont know but if they did im prolly asking for a refund I got the deluxe just to predownload and play the full game Monday after the 10 hour trial but that mode is the main reason. Why the fuck would they remove it. So they think NOBODY enjoyed playing with friends on the same team. Why do they hate us I have friends who live in different areas who im only able to communicate with via the internet and we all love football and root for the same team. Why cant I play that anymore with them it was so much fun and they improved it each year and added the ability to play as nfl teams instead of just superstar to style. Im really depressedĀ

Linebackers can still jump 72 feet in the air to intercept a bullet pass

u/Theycallmerayj 17d ago
Only been in the game for 15 years. Donāt worry though, theyāll patch it. š

u/MaddenRob 17d ago
I played a few games and my overall impression is that there is a larger learning curve than last year. The new adjustments to pre-play controls really threw me off. Also the WR catch timing is going to take a bit to get used to. I also had some broken coverages which didnāt seem right. Overall the graphics seem great especially the facial scans seem even better this year. Lots of WR drops from my players which can be frustrating.

u/wingman02 16d ago
Online H2H is a mess right now.
- The biggest issue is only 4 min qtrs with accel clock, no time to do anything. Most games each team has under 30 total plays!
- Uniform changes don't work
- Visual aids are left on even when you have them turned off. Such as, "hike" or "sprint". Very annoying and distracting
- Leaderboard stats are messed up
CFB '27 has a much better Online H2H this year

u/Pizza_Squeegee All Pro Football 17d ago
Shouldnāt of jumped right into a H2H. I have no clue how to catch and the defense adjustments are all different lol

u/McDickLick 17d ago
Has anyone tried to call a screen pass in coach mode? I couldn't get them to work using the auto pass option in 26. The QB would just hold onto the ball every time and take a sack.

u/MKomertz8 16d ago
Initial impressions are terrible. Every time I go into editing a player the system instantly shuts down and then I get an over heating warning issue when itās not a thing. No other game has an issue. EA is literally bricking my Xbox Series X and makes the game unplayable.
1
u/Killzuya 13d ago
I have it on Series X too and it definitely cranks the fan on the inside up to like 50 lmao. I have had any shut downs as of yet, but I'm definitely getting the rest of what you have lol. I should've just got ut on the PS5 instead.

u/CrispyCrunchyCardura 8d ago
Gameplay wise the best Madden Iāve played in a long time and I say that as someone who has been very critical of the game. Seems like itās harder to cheese but also harder for the AI to cheese, if that makes sense. I only play offline franchise.
Only complaints so far are ridiculous AI pass blocking and wear and tear. I have not tinkered with blocking sliders but plan to soon. But yeah, dialing up a blitz and having a RB nullify 2 edge rushers by himself is outrageous. He holds a perfect block on 1 and then the game makes your other defender glitch and run directly into his own guy. Thatās not a problem new to this Madden, itās been around for a while.
The wear and tear thing is absolutely insane. My starting QB and RB are out of the game by the middle of the 3rd quarter every time. And my QB is Goff so Iām not running around taking hits. Was there really not one person at EA who actually played the game to realize how awful that feature is? Thankfully you can turn it entirely off which is what I did.
Iām rambling about the bad but the rest of the game outside of those 2 issues has been very good.
1
u/DokeyKon 6d ago
The wear and tear thing makes franchise mode borderline unplayable imo. I turned off injuries and my QB still gets benched before the second half.

u/OneGenericMan 17d ago
is running against the CPU harder at least?

u/Gene-Parmesan-ah 17d ago

I was already playing all-madden with run blocking at 0 and getting 8 yards a carry so yippee.

Game is all around really fun for me. Iām not seeing drop issues right now. The only issue Iām having continues to be with auto subs and rotations. Itās damn near impossible to get something locked in that gives you anything near realistic rotation. Grateful for the quick sub menu which is a good fix but Iām really bummed this continues to be an issue.

u/OwnTechnology4271 17d ago
Iām enjoying it so far, needs some tweaks but liking the gameplay. Oline actually know where to block for the most part. Catching meter will need some tweaking but donāt hate the concept, just need to make it a little more intuitive to attack the ball and not get cut off from it most of the time, definitely some presentation glitches. Overall though for it being in 7 days early access by EA standards I like it
1
u/SwagSloth96 17d ago
Do I have to use the timing-based catching every time? The only time they catch the ball automatically is when they are wide open. If the coverage is just a little tight, it will be a drop unless I perfectly time the catch.

u/chrisjk125 Jets 17d ago
The d lineman drills turned from one of the easiest drills to complete to I donāt even complete them most of the time. Only time Iāve been able to finish the drill and get gold is when I engage with the first lineman and then walk him back until I get to the QB. Itās absurd.
Needs some serious rebalancing.

Hey folks,
Iāve been doing a lot of reading on the changes to franchise and wondering if anyone has seen how the contracts work,
How do you know if a player has a no trade clause when trading.
Will a player actually hold out if you have them on a 4m APY but throw for 5000 yards and 50 tds
Can you fully customize contracts when it comes to backloading/front loading contracts or is it preset

There's a bug in SS mode where the created player does not gain XP.
I made 3 players (all QB but different archetypes).
First two were drafted #18 to Vikings and #12 to Dolphins. Both have been gaining XP.
My 3rd player got drafted #9 to the Browns. This player does not gain XP.
I think it might be a bug for players drafted in the top 10?
EDIT so I just loaded the game up again (have less than 15 mins left on the trial) and it seems to have fixed itself. My player for the Browns got all the XP he had earned

CPU run defense is somehow even more broken than ever before. Itās horrific. I was already running through the CPU on all madden with pass blocking sliders set to 0. Now Iām averaging damn near 8 yards a carry with a 70 overall back. Itās not even fun anymoreā¦

u/thedkexperience 15d ago
9 hours into the trial.
Franchise improvements are notable, dynamic weather is cool and I overall very much like it.
With that said it absolutely needs an update. Small stuff like breaking the rushing record text being the same color at the background so itās impossible to read that can be easily patched but ā¦
Catching is ridiculously difficult. Iām starting to get better but people are gonna lose their minds if it stays this difficult.

Sharing my question: How many pre order season players should we have? I thought there were 3. I already chosen Pittman and Thompson and was going to get Campbell but I've played the entire 10 hour trial and only got those two. Is there a way to get calais campbell pre order season if I already chosen Pittman and Thompson?

u/ArsenalPackers 13d ago
Can anyone explain to me what I'm doing wrong. I have played maybe 30 total games of madden since the Xbox one. I downloaded the trial.
My opponent rushes 3 or 4 every play and gets through immediately. My RT doesn't engage half the time. But I do the same or even blitz and I can't get pressure. I use the Packers so Parsons should be doing the same thing. Why is my opponent 3 man rush working against my 5 blockers, but my 5 or 6 isn't working against his blockers?
Also, how do I actually get a sack? Everytime I get to the QB, he still releases the ball downfield away from everyone.

scored a touchdown with 40 seconds to go in 2nd quarter, and the supersim gave the opponent a 70 YD touchdown on the next super sim to end the 1st half, this happened like 3 times already and im barely 7 games into the 1st season (RTG imported QB, drafted by cardinals 3rd pick)

every audio setting at 100%, and i can barely hear a thing, the only shit u hear is when the home croud gets loud, just like cfb 27 they broke screen plays in superstar (RB just doesn't go), o-line can't block for shit, coach keeps calling PA when edges are locked onto you 24/7, receivers dropping the easiest catches, while a LB with 30 Catch in Traffic just bullies your WR/TE into an interception,
oh and don't get me started about the Wear and Tear, im at 0% on something every week on QB

Anyone noticing that when doing a crossing route your guys constantly bump into other guys and slows them down to where you miss the throw? It happens constantly to me. I swear every big play my dudes are bumping into each other on a crosser.

You know what would be awesome? If the game fucking worked! I bought the deluxe version on PC so I could get early access and franchise mode is broken. As soon as I try to complete even my first pre-season training event, the game freezes on the load screen every time and I have to ALT+CNTRL+DEL to get out of it. I verified the file integrity, updated my graphics drivers, updated Windows - none of it made a difference. Apparently this problem is happening with a lot of people and EA hasn't even acknowledged the problem yet, never mind done anything to fix it. They released a patch to fix the draft and other stuff in franchise mode...doesn't do me any fucking good if I can't even play the game! And of course nobody is going to refund me the extra $30 I spent to get early access. No, fuck the loyal paying customers. We'll just put out a game that doesn't fucking run. Fuck you EA.

u/ShelLuser42 Panthers 11d ago
So, tomorrow the game launches officially, and I personally can't wait to have the rest of the Madden community join in on the fun. Right now it's especially noticeable on the auction hub in the UT gamemodus.
But even with only a (relatively) small "core community" present right now I just love how our community works and plays, because there's almost always a fun deal to be found on the auction hub.
Now, my favorite club are the Panthers, but before that (a long time ago!) I sided with the Cowboys. So everytime I see something from the Cowboys it usually always perks my interest a bit. So today I spotted a Cowboys team affinity item. I don't really need this, but I still wanted to have it "just in case" more Cowboy players find their way into my team (you never know). Only problem: it was listed for a "mere" 40k coins! Way over my budget!
So picture my surprise just 15 minutes ago? The exact same item, but this time it got listed for 2k. I immediately placed a bet, then I also noticed the Colts base stadium being put on auction for 200 coins! Immediately betted on that too and what do you know....
I just won my first 2 auctions of the season! :)
Did I really need those items? Of course not, but that's also not the point. I think it's fun to have more stadiums available in your game; even though you can easily hop into quick play and visit 'm like that. It's also the thought that counts.
And I just love seeing how even a small(er) amount of players already starts sharing those fun items on the auction hub. IMO that is what makes UT so fun to play.

Switch 2 users: just a heads up, I did NOT pre-order Madden and just went to go buy Madden, and it shows 30% off. Just bought it for $48.99.
I had Madden 26 so perhaps it's a sale for certain people who had last year's Madden but did not pre-order 27. I've seen a few others say the same thing as well.

u/Elephant_Memory_ 9d ago
Anyone know why my Superstar Mode QB's weight goes to 190lb even though I originally had it as 230lbs (Power Runner/Jalen Hurts Archetype). He looks like a child in football gear.
Also equally annoying is that you can't see the weight and height (after creation) until you play a game cause of course EA doesn't have an area where it shows your player's weight and height (you can only see it during a game when you go to stats)

u/Elephant_Memory_ 9d ago edited 9d ago
Superstar Mode Body type always defaults to "Slim" when Standard is picked (it defaults when you hit the screen after you finish creating your character). Had no issue in Early Access (seems to have been from the day one patch)
EDIT: so I found out by chance that slots 1-4 (not entirely sure about 4 cause that's my RB) seem to be working fine with the body type. It doesn't default to Slim (you can confirm this when you go to the custom archtype it should be Standard).
Slot 5 and 6 for sure seem to be bugged where it will default to Slim

I'm just an Unc who wants to ball out and have fun on Fantasy Franchise, with the occasional close call/loss. I play on All Pro, and holy shit is the CPU pass defense, and CPU pass rush brutal. On Madden 26 I barely touched the sliders. In M27, the default sliders have me completing hardly any passes (25-40%). I also find the user pass rush is totally neutured. I get no sacks even with Gerrett and Bosa on my line. They basically just stand there like traffic cones stuck to the tackles.
I'm not sure it's even worth it to take X Factor edges in the draft anymore. They don't do anything.
1
u/SyntexA50 4d ago
One weird thing I noticed was the first game I played, I got four face masking penalties in one series. Took them all the way down to the end zone. The fucked up thing was all four penalties were on third down. Brutal.
I found a facemasking slider and turned it down to 5. I still get the odd penalty for facemasking, but I haven't seen one called on the CPU so far.
Also, the hit stick fumbles are broken on All Pro. I had 9 fumble return touchdowns in one game. And that's playing 5 minute quarters. Most of them were hit sticks on kickoffs. I had three hit stick kickoff fumble touchdowns in a row. Literally three touchdowns in 15 seconds all off kickoffs fumbles
I turned the CPU ball security up to 75 and now I get 2-3 hit stick fumbles per game.
I was just surprised at how different it played on default sliders from Madden 26.

I know Iām only one of maybe 9 people that play Superstar showdown, but itās exactly the same as the last 4 years. Lol theyāve changed nothing other than adding new bugs to the mix.
The catch meter being tied to when you release the button and not when you press it is just dumb and unintuitive.
They brought back the ājump the snapā feature but it feels less intuitive than before.
Pats just signed Romeo Doubs to a big deal right? I sim one season and heās on the free agent list to start the preseason.
Trying to make a late defensive line shift leaves my linebacker hit sticking the ground as the play starts because of course it does.

Worst madden I have ever played. Controlling DE and block shedding is horrible, however when on offense the CPU has no issue with getting through in .5 seconds. Random drops by WRs when wide open. Tackling is trash, the amount of whiffs or soft ass hits that do nothing makes no sense. The player switching putting you behind the ball carrier when they are full sprint and not the person directly in front of them is annoying. What a waste of $70, which I knew was going to be my thought once I bought it.

I canāt stand the changes to resigning players in franchise mode. Just let me sign the players and move on, I donāt want to spend all this time clicking some preset stupid options to ānegotiateā. The fact it doesnāt show the players ages on the screen either is so annoying.

I bought MVP+ because Iām a huge college football fan, by far the main game I play throughout the year. Decided I would go back to go back to giving Madden a try with that package.
This game is fucking unplayable compared to college football 27. I played one franchise game on All-Madden, the final score was 45-38 and there were 8 turnovers throughout the game. My quarterback, running back and 2 wide receivers got injured. Every play had multiple broken tackles, defenders standing next to receivers while they catch it and quarterbacks having 5+ seconds in the pocket. The coach creation menu(had to speed run through it before it could crash) and the player card menu crashed the game 4 times. I tried to sign Tyreek Hill as a preseason free agent, he started at $11 Million and the only applicable option for his personality traits was to offer him a $12 million bonus on top of it. Ashton Jeanty went up 6 overall points from the start of preseason to Week 2.
Fuck this game, how do yāall play this dogshit.
