Madden NFL 25 Video - All Uniforms Revealed

This is ridiculous. This is next gen and they can't even get a colour right?

This is what they should look like. It annoys me how people sit there and can choose the wrong colour. Have they never watched NFL?

I have come to the conclusion that the Madden team is composed of programmers who are gamers but who AREN'T NFL fans and wouldn't care about the NFL if not for their employment.

I remember Ian Cummings. Cool guy. A Titans fan... but he "just so happened" to have went to school in Hendersonville, TN before the Titans moved to Tennessee. In other words, he was only a CASUAL football fan who jumped on the bandwagon (like almost all the other Tennesseans who didn't care about the NFL until the Titans showed up).

I am now convinced that this is the case for pretty much the entire Madden team. That they can't seem to get uniforms right proves this, or at least it proves that if they ARE fans of NFL teams, the only ones they really care about are the specific teams they like.



I mean, messing up the length of a stripe or two is one thing, but we're talking about not even getting COLORS right! Like the 49ers gold METALLIC helmets, or the Saints pants and somewhat METALLIC helmets. The throwbacks would be excusable (barely), but they aren't even getting the colors right on the DEFAULT uniforms. It's like they just use the Eyedropper tool to get the color from one pixel from the logo or something, then apply it to the entire helmet, forgetting the METALLIC effect. Likewise with so many other color errors they have.

How do you get the colors and consistency wrong? That's just absurd. There are countless photos 3 seconds away from a google image search. I just cannot fathom how this is repeatedly overlooked.

Has someone tried complaining to the NFL?

Surely the NFL would have an issue with their product being mis-represented like this?

Likewise if specific teams or Nike were informed?

They must be breaking some rule of the agreement and EA should be held to the same task as the players IMO.

So the Chargers wont have their new jerseys?

The Bills uniforms are also inaccurate at this stage. They will be dropping Flywire and switching back to a full collar next year, as seen on Nike.com, on the NFL Draft and confirmed by a Nike rep on the Bills forum BuffaloRange.com .

The official jerseys that the player's will be wearing will have the full collar, whereas the jersey that we will sell to consumers will have the flywire collar.

Their uniform's blue hue is still strangely off in the E3 video I saw including them, and their uniform numbers still do not have the slight navy blue outline.



Then again, Chan Gailey was still on the sidelines, so I have a feeling all of this may be fixed come release day, especially since the Vikings uniforms were unfinished in that build and the Bears/Panthers uniforms recently got corrected.

I don't think you can get an accurate look at colors on an off-camera video.

we can identify that certain colours are correct with these off-camera vids, why cant we identify that certain colours are wrong?
some colours are clearly wrong in these videos.

the 49ers helmets are a tad concerning. a widely recognisable feature of a premier and iconic franchise and they seem to be completely ignorant of it. do they watch the sport at all?

I will be honest, I could not make it through the whole video, every teams captains patch is upside down for some reason (that is for the teams that actually managed to have to captains patches working all of a sudden)

The numbers are still too large on 70% of the teams and the kerning is still a huge issue noticeable on all teams.

I love to look at the bright side of things, but whoever did the 2012 jerseys for Madden 13 literally botched 94% of the teams jerseys.

I know you guys want this throwback and that throwback in the game but guys, they are so far off from even having the current jerseys correct that that is so far from a pressing issue at this point, all of the new belts on teams that don't use them, teams like the Chiefs and Steelers who didn't take the flywire collar but still have them in game, guys there are MASSIVE issues with just the current regular and alternate jerseys that these teams wear.

I have some renewed hope with the next gen game, for some reason it appears the uniforms are in some other peoples hands and that some good things are happening, bad news is they kept the same template from current gen which after talking to most of the art department on a regular basis over the last 3 years, is VERY VERY VERY flawed from the get go and needed to be overhauled in the first place.
