I'm in the second year of cfm and they don't ever say rookie's names (even if the name is in the game) and the commentary doesn't update - after scoring a TD they mentioned that the receiver had scored 6 last season and could improve on it. Yeah, he did - that was a year ago. I also rebuilt the stadium and the commentators are talking like the Raiders might move. It needs to be more dynamic.

Idk if that's entirely true because when I scored with Gurley in week 2 for the first time of the year they talked about how he was an all pro as a rookie and had 10 TDs last year and with this TD here it now gives him
11 for his career.

Where about does this pop-up occur?

I've yet to have it anywhere

I think CFM stuff will be part of the much larger updates that the dev eluded to. Haven't bought the game but I enjoy reading reactions and analysis from those that have. The commentary is a bright spot. Madden 18 will undoubtedly take it up a notch....hopefully gameplay makes the same, much needed dramatic leap forward.

They gave infinity engine to madden, because they were ahead of their time and certainly ahead of madden. Now, they're the first ea sports game to use frostbite, and let me tell u, the player models look AMAZING! The wrinkles on players' jerseys actually MOVE!! Lol. Anyways, I'm a fan of madden (Rex's madden team) AND FIFA. But, when I first started playing FIFA around 10 years ago, I was amazed at how much more realistic the game was to soccer compared to madden to football. The gameplay and ball physics in FIFA are now truly amazing. So, I don't think FIFA devs are 'lazy'. Lol. They just created the 'story mode' thing, too. I'm not sure what their franchise looks like, cause I only play h2h FIFA. But, anyways, that game and their dev team has always been innovative. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm sorry I know this is completely off topic but I had to.

Fifa is a very pretty game. But realistic? Come on, man.

Also, I haven't heard any new commentary in CFM. I guess that's coming later.

have to disagree with you there.

all the FIFA devs care about nowadays is Ultimate Team and trying to kill PES by hoarding licenses.

The gameplay (which is worse than PES) has barely changed in 7 years. Same floaty ball physics - same massively arcade styel of playing. The only thing that looks to have improved is by using the Frostbite engine, the player models look less like waxwork figures than they used to.
