Re: Is EA secretly building a new game engine for madden?

It would be nice to see a new engine especially for those who faithfully buy the game every year. I wish I had customers who bought my product every year even when they are disappointed with it.

Well for dear old Madden, here's hoping they've got something secret going on.

Some awfully wiser, and much wealthier, people have told me numerous times over the years, contracts are written so they can be broken. Nothing is iron clad, nothing lasts forever. Eventually a new player will emerge...it was foretold in the sideline animations many moons ago!

I do not think they should rush building a new engine. They should take their time to get it right and new engine building is a long term project. It is really hard to build football engines! I think they are doing the best they can but the hardware is a limitation. Maybe there will be a bigger upgrade with next generation hardware that they can build a good engine.

they just redid part of the engine to support IR and expanded rosters.
Going by history, the first title for next gen will be nothing but a port of previous gen. A handfull of years will go by, Next-nextgen will be rumored and they will announce a new engine for the game

Re: Is EA secretly building a new game engine for madden?

i doubt they do a whole new engine. madden is going the route of compartments. they fix one compartment here...one compartment there. there will be no complete re-write this gen im sure. however, with the 2nd team of devs there to help madden get some lead-time and more long term dev alongside the normal team of devs, im sure there will be some big compartments getting love tho. i bet you we will see physics from fifa 12/nhl 11 next yr and theyve already mentioned commentary getting new tech and maybe a fully featured online franch. those 3 additions will def carry madden 13. but knowing that this is EA we're talking bout, maybe physics in madden 14 cuz "we tried but online franch and commentary was too time consuming...so wait next yr guys".

The game is going in the right direction, no need to start all over again.
