Re: How To Build A Custom Offensive Playbook And Gameplan

I have been using custom playbooks in my offline CFM , using the 2 controller method.

Something that I have noticed latley is that I never get rain/snow late in the season or even in the playoffs?

Is anyone else having this issue ? Is there a fix?

I am on xbox if that matters.

Thanks for any help.

Re: How To Build A Custom Offensive Playbook And Gameplan

I exclusively use a custom playbook. I've never had issues with formation jumbling. I pick a formation and all the variations/plays I want then move to the next. I think that is key. Finishing a formation before you move on to the next.


Writing down they formations/plays you want before hand can really help. Hope this helps.


Right now I'm using a custom offensive playbook that consists of Goalline, Singleback, Pistol, Wildcat, and Shotgun. No Iform variations except goalline which I hardly use. It has been so much fun. More of a spread/multiple TE/ multiple RB college style playbook with a good mix of motions, read options, screens, reverses. Allows me to get very creative.

Edge, this from martz is potentially a very troubling information. What is your experience with weather using custom playbooks? Thanks.

Well, all I can say is based on my personal playing experience. I absolutely see random weather conditions while using my custom playbook. I recently played back to back snow games in Green Bay and Philly, followed by a rain game in Miami.

Overall, we are seeing weather becoming less of a factor over the past several years, with more dome stadiums now in place. However, I have not noticed custom playbooks affecting weather in outdoor stadiums.

Thanks a lot, Edge. Maybe I give it a try after all. But it would not have been possible without your initial write up. I'll tried it before and experienced messed up formations. It was awful. Hopefully GB playbook works for me just as the Saints' did for you.

Best of luck to you. Be patient, take your time and do 1 step at a time and you will be fine. Think about balance and situations when selecting your plays.

Good advice right here. Exactly what I did with regards to putting playbook to paper in advance. Important to keep in mind that while we're creating a custom playbook, in essence we are truly editing an existing playbook that has already been formatted. I believe this to be the reason that many folks understandably run into formation jumbling and other problems. I focused on building from the formations already present in my selected book. From there, I brought additional formations and plays into my book without experiencing any glitches.

Hopefully in the future, Madden will overall this system so that we can write our books from scratch, arrange our formations and plays the way we want to and give us more play slots to build a gameplan from.
