Those icons have been there since Madden 2001. They just darkened them a little.




not sure if we are talking about the samething, if u look at the human vs human vids during the passing plays there is a yellow triangle that follows the ball. If thats been there since 2001, Ive never seen it.

That is not in there and never has been. That is a new feature so I guess that guy is talking about something else.

Nope, not just NCAA. It's available in Madden this year too!

Re: what we know so far

before you play a game in franchise you can assign a new position to a player. they're ratings will drop since they aren't used to the new position but you can work with them to get their ratings up and get them comfortable in the new position. in game you won't be able to move players around like that to help against cheaters online.

thanks wwarton..that saved me a real long explanation....but another way you can manipulate the rosters...is to change the positions around so you can cut the unwanted player...then just go back to the fa list and give him back his normal position...there will be a number of combinations you can use i assume to dump players that were actually cut....i shouldnt be much of a hastle...most 3rd string centers are also guards but now we can just make guard the primary pos and center the 2nd pos..and cut an unwanted guard that was released by the actuall team..of course this is all assumption on my part ...but the ability to change positions will no doubt make it 100% easier to have accurate rosters

Re: what we know so far

so does each position have a set position it can change to? Like a CB to S or WR type thing?
