Top 5 most annoying things about madden 25

[queenie.paula]

so guys this is my first thread and though we all could have a little fun here with everyone posting their top 5 most annoying thing bout madden 25....hope all chime in

5: uniforms ( many aren't the right colors and or style)
4: cut scene glitches (helmets too high on heads, created coaches faces messed up, rains in cowboy stadium even when its closed...etc)
3: auto subs (do I need to explain? lol)
2: penalties sliders ( even if other things were fixed if the penalties aren't then you still cant have a realistic game)
and finally (drum roll please)
1: commentators ( hearing phil sims constantly say just punt the ball and my all time hated comment from him is hearing him say the word HERO, makes me want to mute the tv lol)

When signing free agents in off season or when trading can not see ratings and most player info

Re: Top 5 most annoying things about madden 25

running animation. been messed up for years. I have no idea why they think that runners dont move the arm they have the ball in when they run. Its ridiculous.

Re: Top 5 most annoying things about madden 25

the lack of signature throwing animations on all throws just plain annoys me..when they were first implemented in madden 10 (i think), it was a promising move forward as far as increasing the character of the game

2k and mlb the show have hundreds of signature animations that trigger in all kinds of scenarios...no excuses

Re: Top 5 most annoying things about madden 25

My #1 complaint is that I can't even play the game since my offline CCM freezes during games. Other than that I can't even play it long enough to make any other complaints.

1. Big heads... Huge Heads... ENORMOUS Heads.
2. San Antonio Rams retains "St. Louis" in endzone.
3. Ridiculous relocations of CPU teams - Vikings to Chicago - really?
4. Uniforms, names and logos for relocated teams do not look professional at all. Well, except that Dublin Celtic Tiger things, but Dublin isn't a realistic relocation city, anyway. Maybe we should just pretend it's Dublin, Texas. That town only has about 4000 people, but at least it's in the US. :wink:

I forgot about that, im playing a 32 team owner mode and I don't think the cpu will trigger anything like that since im in control of all the teams, but yea I tried one before, the broklyn yanks....stupid looking unis and dumb logo

Re: Top 5 most annoying things about madden 25

Same intro every game. Needs NFL Films Music back. Auto, Replays are far too up close . No cheerleaders . Creating a player takes forever. Maybe 20 minutes for one guy due to slow as butt menus. Commentary overall gets to repetitive

Re: Top 5 most annoying things about madden 25

laggy menus
still hate how i dont even know my own players ratings
bad simulation stats (bradford in 16 games, had 11 tds and 17 picks)
teams relocating (patriots to dublin for example)
no ability to have permanent formation subs. have to re-edit everything game after game

I definitely agree with 5 and 4. The Dolphins uniforms are bad. The new uniforms use the wrong colour for aqua and their "white" pants are off-white. The all-white option which I love and they use a lot is bad because the pants don't match the tops. It's annoying.

The cut scenes and replay systems are weak. They should have added the highlight packages for certain players that NCAA had along with studio updates complete with video highlights along with a real halftime show.

I think IE 2.0 has been weak this year. I think it may be worse than M13 after its patches (I don't have M13 so this may not be true although I don't care about post play nonsense). It doesn't feel as organic as it should and it feels more scripted like in the past. Gang tackling still isn't really there either. I don't like the weight and feel of the players either as I want it to be heavier. I think a realistic player movement system on next gen may really be nice with more movement on the lines.

Most of this stuff is legacy issues.

1) Penalties
2) Auto-subs not working properly
3) No in-game saves
4) No more NFL Films soundtrack
5) Flawed Replay system



Love the game.

Re: Top 5 most annoying things about madden 25

I hate all those things and more,like 9 players without pictures on the Browns,and Trent Richardson being traded onto the Colts without the Browns getting the Colts first pick to use in CC mode

I agree but it's the game being similar that's making it feel stale for me right now. It's just not sucking me in this year for whatever reason. Maybe I played too much of last year's version. I was able to overlook annoyances last year but I'm having a harder time overlooking them this year. I want a game that plays and feels different - hopefully more like an NFL game and less like a video game.
