Update:
- This is done with a clean delete of User Profile and any Gameplay Slider saves
- have not tested if editing Penalties/Injuries/Fatigue/Speed Threshold Slider triggers transition
Posted this in the Impression Thread, but wanted to create a thread so others can come across the info, esp as more gamers are able to get their hands on a Next-Gen console through the holidays.
Next-Gen Player Movement really does add a different gameplay experience to Madden, but there's an unintended caveat (unfortunately) for Next-Gen gamers to play the game with this feature.
***reported it to the Dev team
As some here on OS, Twitter and EA Forum have mentioned, "Game Play Speed" for some reason seemed faster than Beta, along with Next-Gen Player Movement seemingly disappearing and gameplay looking/feeling like Last-Gen.
Well issue is....
If you adjust "any” gameplay slider at all, you’ll be kicked from any default setting (Rookie/Pro/AP/AM) and transitioned into a “Custom” setting (although no longer visible in front end Gameplay Slider settings)
- Game Speed still changes according to these levels
Remember Sliders have not been touched since their introduction, along with Madden constantly being built over years of old code, so many hiccups have carry over into Next-Gen Madden.
- years ago, when you adjusted one slider it transitioned your setting into a Custom designation/set up
- Custom setting defaulted to a "Fast" game speed setting
Like others on NG, I couldn’t figure out why the gameplay speed just seemed so different when playing on 100% Default Sliders with each of the latest EA Roster Updates.
The Player Movement was very noticeably “slower/weighted” until I would apply any Gameplay Slider adjustments, then the gameplay speed would speed up for some strange reason on all Difficulty settings.
Being curious, I did an reinstall & did no Slider edits, sure enough game speed & NG Player Movement was there in Play Now & Franchise.
- after changing just the Tackle Slider, gameplay speed went back to a much faster pace.
So for those that do notice the NG gameplay speed is faster, don’t adjust any gameplay Sliders to prevent transitioning your settings into Custom, where gameplay Speed is set to “Fast” by default as it was before they removed the notation from the Front End.
*Again, I sent this info to the Dev team, but for now hope this helps.

I posted an iteration of this in my slider thread but am putting it out here for people to assess for themselves. I've finally gotten through multiple sessions without issues.
The current version of Madden has a really wonky issue where the game can get "sped up". This is caused when the sliders in the main menu (which are tied to the user profile that loads when you start the game) are different than your CFM sliders. To resolve this, we need to ensure the main menu sliders are aligned EXACTLY with the CFM sliders. Quick note: this has NOT been tested for an existing franchise or online CFMs.
This is the process.
1. Enter ALL of your main menu settings and sliders (yes, you will need to save the sliders). (As a quick aside, this should work irrespective of the slider values selected - though some slider setups are just poorly designed and may continue to have issues)
2. Once the main menu settings are completely updated, exit the game entirely and re-start. This will load your updated settings from from your user profile.
3. In CFM, go to the slider screen, hit Triangle (or the corresponding button on XBox) to import the sliders. IMPORTANT: DO NOT hit the reset button or manually change ANY slider values (if you do this, when you exit the slider screen, you will see a save of your madden profile - meaning that you screwed-up). Just import and exit the slider screen.
4. Once you do these steps, you should not need to adjust sliders again. IF you decide you want to tinker with sliders, you need to start over at step 1 (again, do NOT manually adjust sliders in CFM).
EDIT: One other final thing, if you're in an existing CFM, I HIGHLY recommend doing this process BEFORE advancing into the next week on your schedule.
