Madden NFL 26 Q&A Thread

[ChaseB]

Just to clean up the impressions thread, post your questions here.

Question relates to the field art shown and how it's determined (helmet, uniform, or both)? Also, is it true you aren't able to mix and match helmets and unforms in Madden '26? Thanks.

During Franchise mode can you select weather? are they pre-programmed? or random atleast? so that if you re-start you get different weather?

Does the clock run down automatically when the game is virtually over, like it does in CFB?

[MizzouRah]

Yes.......

Not exactly like. It accelerates down to a few seconds on play clock if losing team has no timeouts and winning team is in a qb kneel.

If I go into any player on my team in Franchise mode, I can add any trait and as many traits as I want to. I dont understand this. Why is the game letting me give 20 traits to one player?

So...how do I start a second Superstar mode?

[Jhaze01]

If you go over the the character screen, where you see your sphere of influence, there's an option to swap characters.

Does anyone know how to fire an existing real coach. User teams worked as a work around in 25 but now there is only the coach role. So wondering if anyone has a solution?

Did I miss a setting that is defaulted to off, or are scenarios no longer a thing in franchise mode? I played the preseason last night and was hoping to trigger the scenario where you can commit to sitting your rookie QB for the season. It was then I realized that I didn't get any scenarios.

I'm seeing them, had a TE that wanted to know if he did enough to be named the starter.

Does anyone know how to get that team pass box off the screen after I score a TD, it pops up and has an NFL logo and my username while the replay is showing.

Is there only one type of weathers in the game? Are all snow games white out or are there levels to the severity?

[Jummyjumjin]

Is coach speak/coach suggestion limited to only 15 plays per scenario like previous years? If so, then EA feel we will only have 15 first downs per game or expect us to run the same play multiple times for each scenario?

If I take the time to create a custom playbook, I should be able to have the coach suggest multiple random plays per my gameplan starring

It's progressive fatigue something that should be left on to feel the proper effect of wear and tear?

[MizzouRah]

You either have to use W&T or Prog Fat, you can't have them both on at the same time.

[secondsolution]

Ah right, thank you! And does wear and tear carry over weeks?

[BigOrangeVol4Life]

Is there a noticeable drop-off between starting quarterbacks and backups, particularly those that are CPU-controlled? This has been a glaring issue in past Madden installments. For example, if Lamar Jackson goes down for the Ravens, his backup should not come in and finish the game 20 of 24 for 300 yards and 5 TDs. In short, I'm hoping the CPU-controlled backups, especially those who are inexperienced are less accurate at throwing the ball, struggle more with sensing pressure, and are easier to pick off by defenses that scheme well by disguise.

I think the only way to do this is maybe playing offline but not sure as I haven't tested it yet as I am using the trial
