Madden NFL 17 Developer Q&A Confirms Formation Subs Included in Day One Patch

Re: GameInformer Madden NFL 17 Dev Q&A (Formation Subs confirmed for first title upda

Thanks for the info. Since I'm mostly an offline franchise mode geek, Madden 12 was my last purchase as I've felt EA took the game into a direction not geared to my liking. However, with improved game play, graphics that actually look next gen, player editing, custom playbooks and now formation subs back, I guess I got to pony up. lol... Hopefully next year the play calling screen will be addressed so we can set a game plan and have those plays pop up per situation assigned. That was one of the best features of M12. I understand they have a gameplan feature in this year, but I have not seen it show up on the play screen in any videos I've watched. Thanks again for info and link.

I wasn't going to do a 32 team control this year because the issues that made it necessary seemed to have been dealt with, but with formation subs in, I will probably do it so that I can help the CPU teams optimize their personnel usage.

As to some other things in the Q&A:

I know that most of them don't want it, but I feel bad for the rare online competitive player who actually does want penalties and other realistic quirks of the game to be in the game playing experience.

I like seeing Michael Hoag talk about knowing that Special Teams teams still needs a lot of work, and seeing Rex nod in agreement.

I think that John White is right, he doesn't actually say it, but a lot of CFM folks are sleeping on Gameplanning this year. It has excellent functionality now.

People who don't like Beyond Broadcast presentation, sorry, it's clearly a core part of their design philosophy.

Rex didn't come right out and say it, but it seems like M18 begins a new 3 year plan. I wonder if Frostbite makes it in for M18.

I mean, we had formation subs in Madden a decade ago two console generations past so I hesitate to get too excited, but I'm glad to see them back in. Very great addition.

So can we set formation subs outside of a game in the cfm menu?

I like how Rex was acting annoyed about being asked about Formation Subs again, "like dude, why you guys keep asking about this, John go ahead answer this one", and John in his typical low key manner is like, "Yeah, we got it in"

I personally liked his shirt.

Coordinators & Coaching Carousel a high priority they want to get in, want to get the license to have each specific coordinator.

I would actually be fine with fake coordinators if they can't get the real ones.

I'm guessing yes since there already were formation subs in game

Good question

Yes. In the video John said that it is CFM only and that they can be accessed in a CFM menu.
