If you're able to, switching to Madden on PC is your best bet.

It isn't. They said it will be the PS4/Xbox version.

I wouldn’t recommend buying M23 on PC but there is enough reason for most wanting to play football games to stick with Madden 22 PC. It’s gameplay and franchise mode exceed any console version.

Unfortunate PC couldn’t just get the next gen version.

Wow. I should’ve did my research before bumping this. I ASSUMED PC would be getting Next-Gen the 2nd year in.. what’s the hold up EA!?

Yeah, I moved away from PC to Xbox Series S so I could finally play the next gen version. I doubt PC gets next gen until 2024.

And honestly, I tried to do the mods for Madden 22 on PC. It was just cumbersome overall, especially with some of the settings needed, turn this on, do this thing, turn this off. Then if EA patches Madden, all the mods break until they're patched.

It wasn't something I wanted to deal with when I play. I don't want to spend 1/2 my time in Madden managing settings and mods.

I ran into the same scenario. Used to be more into loading games with mods, but now I just want hop in, play a game and get off. Not worry about my load order, or which mods caused a crash this time etc. lol

I tried 22 with mods, but the lack of the next gen movement just kills it overall.

Is it because of MUT or whatever? NBA2k is treating the PC version the same way. Keeping the next gen stuff for the consoles. They see that PC players don't spend money on MUT and 2k's version of it. So why put effort on the PC version.

It is likely because the PC crowd is extremely small. There's only thousands of us that ply it regularly on PC. That obviously leads to MUT revenue being minimal on the platform also, so that probably has some to do with it, but I imagine the poor PC sales simply make it to where EA doesn't see it worth the resources to update the PC version to match the latest consoles. It's unfortunate because Madden is an easy game to run and many of us do have PC's that blow any console out of the water, but the unfortunate reality is that we're just a very small piece of the pie. We're really like a crumb off of the pie, not even a piece at all.

Sorry man but this is a bad take in my opinion.. here’s why:

You literally download the mod manager, select Madden 22 game, download mods which are zip files usually. Unzip, and click import and launch game.

Not sure how it could be any easier. You don’t turn this on, that on… you click the mods you want activated and launch. I bring this up because these posts scare others into thinking it’s so hard, when it’s quite the opposite.

Hell.. my franchise tool does most of the work for you on the bigger progression front.

As far as patches breaking them, they literally get updated within a day if not the same day 98% of the time. I know this because I own the madden modding discord and we are very proactive on keeping everything up to date. Also the point is misleading.. it only requires mods with legacy file edits to need updated, otherwise the mods works fine with any update.

Now with all that said, I hope you don’t take it as an attack on you.. I would love for you to reach out and let us help you since it sounds like you either a) are taking a long approach to modding the game or b) do not fully understand what you need to do. Would love to show you how easy it really is.
