Maximum Football 18 releases on July 31, are you buying?

[JayBee74]

Madden has been uninspiring to me for several years and I'm not big on franchise mode so I'll probably take a look.

Does anybody know if there will be an "American football option" (primarily "four downs vs three" and "eleven on eleven" vs "twelve on twelve")?

EDIT: I just saw on one of the videos where you can change the rules from the default "Pro Canadian" to "Modified US Pro" or "Modified US College".

This ^ I will buy this and Axis both on console just to support these devs , who are at least trying to make a more simulation style franchise and football game. Sure they dont have the large team like EA, but this is how bigger companies start out . Anything is possible, but only if we support them.

Can't be complaining about EA and Madden if not willing to support someone else at least trying.

I didn't realize this was the title w/out franchise, will check on it later in the football season maybe to see how it's received, but at launch it's a no, especially in proximity to the Madden release.

My Madden alternative this season will be Mutant League now that it's added franchise, probably double dip and get it on the Switch.

Their post release support was pretty good last year, too. There were a few things people still wanted fixed but the dev did fix some issues people were having with the passing game and patched in a season mode and put some league mod tools out there.

I'll probably buy it again on PC if/when it releases on that platform. CPU DB coverage on the deep ball was really my only major issue with last year's game.

There is a season mode!

Any price on this game yet? I don't see it in "coming soon" games for my Xbox One.

I believe it's $17 for both platforms. PC won't be Steamed out until late August/early September.

It's posted on Xbox Live now; Sony may not update until tomorrow early evening, if past is prologue on updating their store.
