    Madden 19 Captain Star - On Field

    For those that have played the game … is there anything in settings that can disable this, it is an eyesore to me. I like the game as clean looking as possible, I find the star (Captains star?) under all the captains annoying!

    Thanks for any help!!

    I think at some point there will be a mod to remove it (for PC).

      The easy fix for the user is to assign captain status to players who rarely see the field. Unfortunately, that doesn't help regarding the team you're playing against. I'm pretty O.C.D. about having a clean-looking game as well, so I view it as a rather silly and arcade-like eyesore and completely unnecessary.

        Is there any player boost to having a player assigned as a team Capt?

          No there is not.

            Hmmm, glad I'm not alone on this. I typically play Play Now against the cpu - I wonder if turning off player name/position underneath the players will remove the stars. Has anybody tried that?

              The captain patches are something they added to make the game more realistic. How is that a problem.

                Because the OP has nothing to do with the authentic captains patches that go on jerseys. You don’t see a glowing star underneath Tom Brady when you watch Thursday night football on your couch and people don’t want to see it in their NFL video game that they play either.

                  Oh gotcha. Yeah that should really be something you can turn off.

                    Yeah it’s not really surprising coming from EA. They tend to try and reach every possible target market when they create new things instead of sticking true to one vision. Adding in something authentic always comes with something arcade-like.

                      The star remains

                        Im probably not getting the game until at least Nov anyway....but Im definitely not getting it until they give us an option to turn off the stars and fix the visual indicators always being on.

                        All that stuff and CFM exp points popping up after every play gets turned off with me when I play madden....cant stand it

                          The stupid captain star is even in the manual replay, this is absolutely pointless, its unnecessary to have this!

                            The captain star is an obnoxious blue color during night games, wtf man!

                              That really breaks the game for you? Like, I've seen some ridiculous critics about Madden ("the running animations are trash 0/10" being my favorite) but this takes the cake.
