Customization is King....What Would You Like to Customize?
 

I've enjoyed some of the steps the Madden team has taken to give the user a lot more contol over game customization. I've enjoyed the speed threshold slider and I think Gameplanning was a ground breaking addition this year, and even though part of it was broken with one of the patches, I've been using the 2 controller workaround and it's really changed Madden for the better.

Anyway, we'd all love to customize the game to our liking, so here's my list of things I want control over:

--Create a Play and Create a Playbook with unlimited options (obviously)
--Custom Playbooks
--Edit Players in Franchise (glad it's already being considered)
--Create a Draft Class
--Choose weather for games in franchise
--Out of Game Formation Subs (Keep in game formation subs as well)
--"Reset" Button for formation subs
--Custom Packages
--Ability to use players at any position (lessen the depth chart limitations, let Gs play TE, let MLBs play DE)
--Create Injuries and Injury Length in Franchise (steal from MLB the Show)
--Create our own formula for OVR (see thread)
--Ability to Create players in franchise mode
--Better defensive options in gameplanning
--Player tendencies


More Specific Slider Options
-QB "Throw Out of a Sack" Slider (Does the QB take the sack or have a quicker release)
-Global Sliders for Individual Ratings: THP, Power/Finesse Moves, Man/Zone Coverage, etc
-QB Scramble Slider


Anything else you want to customize?

My suggestion, add custom stadium sounds to that list.

To that end, maybe also bring over the online Teambuilder.

Re: Customization is King....What Would You Like to Customize?
 

Love that list, as well as a teambuilder option as long as it has all current and throwback uniform options. You could create up to 32 teams.

On a more aesthetic point, being able to design a uniform for offline play for an existing team using the online Teambuilder would be GREAT. That way I could FINALLY get my early 1990s Eagles uniforms in the game.

I would love they let us customize age, years pro, height, weight, skin color, build etc. I would like to see more hairstyles! No long hair for white dudes! I would like to start brady at 23 and build that pats dynasy team of the 00's. It would be easier to create rookies

Teambuilder would be money if they did it right, including:

-having throwback uniforms as an option, or at least having a more in depth uniform creator
-letting you play with teambuilder teams in modes other than just exhibition mode, like a season or a playoff
-making it a little easier to create players, like maybe having a wide range of player templates that included different ability levels and skill sets

I'd especially like to see Editing players and draft classes in franchise with no limitations. This would really help solve any shortcomings of progression, draft imports, etc.

Nice list, OP...

I'd also like to be able to customize the Coach Philosophy sliders for played games and simmed games (that influence sim stats) to a greater degree than currently possible...

The sliders move in increments of 10...I'd like to see increments of 5, a the very least...

I'd also like the team to focus on these sliders to assure that they work exactly "as advertised"...esp. the HB1 / HB2 slider...

I'd also like to be able to "customize" more of the ST play...separate sliders for Hum and CPU including sliders that influence the success of the return game...

Perhaps separate ST blocking sliders and a "big play" frequency, so that you actually have some "fear" that a big time returner will break the game open with a "big play" return...

Custom Music!!! :y220:

Its so sool to hear ESPN or TNT theme music when I go to halftime in NBA 2K. I only wish they had this in Madden.

Hearing Fox NFL Sunday music as players walk off the field would add a nice touch to the presentation.
