    Would love to see this done yes. But to be honest I don't put a high priority on it. I would much rather they fix whats currently there first.

    Sub Packages
    Auto Sub
    Fatigue
    Coverage, both zone and man
    Fixed Draft classes
    Better AI for resigning
    Better interaction between OL/DL still
    An actual description of ratings
    etc

      I REALLY WISH THEY WOULD LET SOMEONE ELSE BESIDES TIBURON MAKE THE GAME. IT AMAZES ME THOSE GUYS HAVE JOBS. In the real world you get fired for 1 not improving your product 2 not moving more units than previous year 3 having horrible csat reports 4 making everyone wish your competitor made your product 5 NO COMMUNICATION 6 making people vow to not buy products with your brand.

      TIBURON CANT KEEP UP WITH THE TIMES

      TRACK RECORD THEY NEVER MADE A SIM FOOTBALL GAME OR TRIED

      IF it wasnt for MUT ea would be broke

        All suggestions rank high on the "Want" list for Madden 15. If added, I would think "Next gen" would be the platform.


        I know the Devs work hard, to say they don't or even suggest that is wrong. They have people above them that have their own view of Madden.


        I'm hopeful after the positive talk from Madden 25 Next Gen.

          Waivers are a must. Now, that Connected Franchise mode is super popular and in its 2nd year as a complex online franchise mode, waivers will only improve online leagues. This would really help maintain the competitive balance by removing the first-come-first-serve basis of free agency.

              I feel like I would agree with this person if his posting style didn't hurt my eyes too much to read it.

                  Custom draft classes. Let me build my own. Sick of nobody at Tiburon being able to perform basic math.

                  A realistic progression system. Goals and packages? How is that football-like?

                  Ability to assign custom playbooks to a team/coach and have it be recognized.

                  Knock off this "I'm the owner so I'm going to adjust the price of hotdogs" bull****. What I SHOULD be doing is leasing vendor space to bidders. There are a LOT of ways that **** should improve.

                  Oh, and make the supersim used on the front end to simulate games ALSO work in-game so I can sim-out of blowouts without both teams going over 70 points because they can run a play and only take 4 seconds off the clock. They SPECIFICALLY said they were using Supersim for the front end simming in CCM last year, so why does the in-game sim produce the same stats supersim did 3 years ago? Makes CFM as a player pretty useless when it results in your opponents scores 25 touchdowns a game.

                  Ugh, ok, back to not being angry and making serious suggestions...

                  Ok, first, I really like how they did relocation. It's pretty immersive, all that... and I'm cool with being limited on logos/names/etc.. What I'm not cool with is the limited number of cities. Just add a ton more cities, with the same options. I'd like to be able to relocate the entire league and play with completely fictional franchises, that'd be cool. I love that Portland and Salt Lake were included, though, that's awesome.

                  Umm... there should probably be separate running and passing schemes. Mike Shanahan, Gary Kubiak... Zone Run or West Coast? They're both. Jim Harbaugh is Power Run and West Coast. Can someone explain to me how Devin Hester is best suited to a Power Run offense? Some of these things just baffle me.

                  damn it, started complaining again...

                  Working sub sliders would be nice. I'd really like this to be redone completely. Substitutions made on a schedule. For instance, I can dictate that my #1 HB comes out of the game for 1 series ever 3rd series. Something like that. Formational depth charts would be nice too... or customizable personnel packages.

                    While I don't really want this, it does remind me of an earlier, more innocent time. Remember Madden cards? Back in like '99?

                    Me and my two roommates used to play franchise... back before we cared about sliders or realism, we just played. Every season we said we could pick one of the legends to add to franchise mode. I'd always add Brent Jones to my 'Niners. Good times.

                        Also, I wish they had the Progression like in FIFA, if the player plays good, his Stats go up on their own, more realistic and fun!

                        I hate spending 20,000 XP on an 78 overall and turning him into the next Ed Reed!

                              I have a couple of things:

                              1. Get rid of goals, points, packages, ETC. it annoying and isnt real. players should progress automatically, not by what points you spend on.

                              2. Add waivers, practice squad to make it more realistic.

                              3. Get more in depth with coaches schemes and players style, as offenses and defenses playing styles are just "balanced", same with player styles. also, some coaches have multiple offensive and defensive schemes. Tomlin uses 3-4 versatile and tampa 2, not just 1

                              4. make simulation more realistic, as the stats are TERRIBLE when you simulate.

                              5. players ratings are pretty bad. John Conner should not be a 60 overall FB, he is one of the best in the league. Marshawn's carrying rating, which is like 97, shouldnt be that becayse he fumbles more than league average, while guys like Larod Stephens-Howling should be higher because they dont fumble

                              6. fix auto subs and sliders so i can get a RBBC option for my team

                              7. fix how good the computer passes against you, as man and zone both suck no matter how much you change the sliders
