Madden 22 Beta Questions

[Pray_iv_m3rcy]

Can you still actually participate in the practice sessions? Are teams still in full GameDay gear? Do we have the position drills back?

how is the league player stats menu this year do they show which team they play on.
Or is it the same.

The Skills Trainer drill portion of practice which earns XP no longer takes place. Players instead get XP the moment you install your weekly game plan (it’s a simulated step). I did not see any options in Franchise to perform any of the Skills Trainer concept drills.

I did not see any new drills, though I actually don’t think Skills Trainer is in the beta at all, so we may have to wait for launch on that. I recall reading in the Game Informer article that EA confirmed the absence of individual player mini games (such as those in PS2 Madden).

You do still have the option to do open practice after you simulate your weekly gameplan install.

Skills trainer IS in the beta under exhibition, but nothing new in there

During weekly gameplan install, you can choose whether to practice at full or half intensity, and per-position whether starters / backups get more reps (you can also split reps).

Full intensity practice earns more XP, but you incur the risk of players suffering short-term injuries. I believe if you do half-intensity practice there is no injury risk, but I’m not 100% sure of this.

Practice intensity and starter / backup rep distribution also affects season-long fatigue levels, but I don’t know to what extent yet because I’ve only done a couple practices. Presumably a player’s Stamina rating is penalized if you keep running full intensity practices over the course of many weeks.

Is there any change in the kicking game? Cameras , missed FG’s , harder?

Any new playable camera angles?
How is the pass blocking? Is it more realistic? Does the pocket form better?

Have you run into any new scenarios in Franchise? Sounds like they specifically hired a member of the community to improve them so just wondering if you’ve run across any cool new scenarios.
