Madden NFL 26 Update #4 to Include Gameplay Improvements, New Face Scans and More

[WiiMaster]

Yeah it seems starting this year they're going to release the notes a day before the actual update.

Is it new classes or just new franchises with the same classes? Pretty excited with the face scans they added. I was hoping for some Cowboys players but 30 players is pretty good.

Cowboys could really use a few players on offense (George Pickens/Hunter Luepke would be cool/last year's rookies on OL/Terence Steele/maybe Jaydon Blue) and on defense mostly the DL (Mazi Smith/Osa/Kneeland/Donovan Ezeiruaku/Shavon Revel/etc.)

I mentioned it in post #23, this is the breakdown of the draft class fix:
- Any draft class that has already been imported and drafted will not be fixed retroactively
- If the draft class file you downloaded from the share had the correct body types when it was created and exported, it should now have the right body types if you re-import it to your franchise file, even if you already imported it once. This is because as I mentioned, the problem wasn't with how the draft class files were being saved, the problem was with how they were being imported from that saved file.
- If a draft class has been imported into a franchise and then re-exported, that re-exported file will not have the correct body types even if you import it again.

The key thing here is no mention of them adding the body type adjustments to the player edit menu. We can do it on PC anyway so we don't really care that much but sucks for console guys.

I’m confused folks! The recent convo is leading me to believe a patch just dropped?

What's there to be confused about? It clearly states in the posted article in this very thread September 17th. Post #19 to be exact.

They added in the ability to edit body types like in the college game. That's nice.

Did they fix the issue of not being able to take players of IR? They previously acknowledged they had this issue and were working on a fix

Alright this is a big one. Like always here's the full list of added/modified/removed assets:

Wait, did they remove the option of W&T or progressive fatigue from franchise? Or has it always been only W&T?

It was mentioned in the patch notes for this update that they removed the remaining progressive fatigue option as it was causing problems.

I'm glad for the new equipment but there's still a good bit missing that I thought they'd have in with this update.

The new F7 and masks, a straight robot single bar on the Axiom that a lot of guys wear, the new wrist braces still aren't manually editable which seems a bit weird wondering if that's a mistake on their end.

Hoping we'll get those added in/fixed

How do you NOT have a patch released already for issues the game had even before the official release of the game?? You knew about these game breaking issues.... There's literally no excuse to not have these fixes in the game yet. None.

in the age of patches and title updates i don't think they prioritize anything other than making sure the online experience is "playable" upon release - from there they actually start working on real improvements/needs/requests with title updates

CFB26 changed pretty significantly with each update and madden has just released a 50gig update - that's basically a brand new game

[MizzouRah]

50gb? It was like 7.5gb on my XSX

[Kramer5150]

50gb? WTH??? That's definitely not correct.

Still unable to mix and match entire uniform choices. I wonder why?

So they still havent fixed the W&T sliders in Franchise? Also i see DT's still having pass rusher traits and the top ELITE pass rushers not having these traits. So that's still not fixed.

Something that wasn't mentioned in the notes but has changed:
- All the player portraits have been updated, presumably to fix the giraffe issues with the rookie portraits. But they decided to just update everyone. And from the looks of it, instead of having the custom white jersey portraits like they used to, they just yoinked all the player portraits from ESPN and put them in. The portraits look identical to what I can see on the ESPN site. And that means the players are now in team-specific gear in their portraits rather than the white NFL jersey.

First game post patch, CPU vs CPU. Sack count: Eagles - 6, Rams - 8. I don't know why it's that hard to program the A.I. to throw the ball away. Human QBs avoid sacks at all costs while Madden QBs sit back and wait to get hit.

Because sacks aren't a problem in online h2h and MUT play, that's why.
