    EA please allow HDR settings for madden 19

    I apologize if this has been mentioned before. I notice all EA sports games except for madden allow you to adjust the HDR intensity which helps with making the picture a lot better and brighter. Unfortunately, madden doesn’t and when you play madden on an OLED it looks too dark.

    Those with OLED TVs can relate and the only way to play madden without it looking too dark is disabling HDR. Hopefully the EA devs can add this to madden since all their other sports games have it.

      I can not agree more with this. I hope this setting his added in, last year I found myself turning off HDR on the ps4 pro. But I felt like, at least on the Pro, they had all sorts of frame rate issues anyway. I kept thinking it was the hdr doing it.

          I only see this complaint with PS4 Pro users. Everyone with the Xbox One X loved the way 18 looked.

          I wonder if the OP has a Pro, too.

            I loved the way 18 looked. I had to change the contrast and brightness but I eventually loved the way it looked. 19 looks alot darker and washed out at certain times. I hope I'm wrong when I see the retail copy at home.

              The Pro had some frame rate issues, which is why the Xbox One X played so much better I think. It really was a dramatic difference.

              When I had a buddy that is PS4 he came over to play and lord those little hitches that only happen every so often on the PS4, but they do happen, were driving me crazy.

                  Next time try reading the OG post it helps. I already have a Samsung ks8000, but prefer the picture of OLED over LCD/LED any day. The issue was only on OLED, but great suggestion..

                    It looks great graphically speaking. The problem was this game looks too dark on OLED TVs. It looks perfect on my Samsung ks8000. That’s why I hope they allow HDR intensity settings like all their other sports games and it’ll fix the problem.

                    I have it on both consoles and it looks dark on both consoles with OLED TVs. It looked and played better on the Xbox though.

                      Not even close... Madden 18 HDR did not look good on Xbox one x in my opinion.

                        100% agree. Although Roadman is gonna throw a fit if you talk about 19..

                          You're the first person I've seen with that complaint. What TV do you use?

                            Personally I didn't think madden 18 hdr looked all that good on either console. But I was on an LG Oled panel and if that was having issues with Madden's HDR that could be why.

                              HDR throws a wrench in everything. If your TV is bright enough and has good tone mapping, then you shouldn't have any issues with any content. However, with an OLED, you have sub-optimal peak brightness and fairly poor tone mapping. The LG OLEDs tone map based on the mastering display max luminance. So if something is mastered at 4000 nits, but the MaxCLL (brightest pixel in the content) is way below that, then the TV will think that the brightest pixel is actually 4000 nits. It will then compress the 4000 nit range down to whatever the TV supports (in this case, 750 nits) and therefore MaxCLL will get compressed by the same factor. That's why some content looks incredibly dim on an LG OLED.

                              I have an OLED too, but I much prefer HDR10 content on my high nit LCD. I use my OLED only for Dolby Vision and SDR. Luckily, the Xbox One X has DV support - only through streaming now, but it will likely be added for UHD blu ray and games too in the future. That will help OLEDs tremendously.
