Well, as many of us love & miss the formation subs that were in prior Madden & NCAA games; I've a great idea about whenever (if ever) we see its return.

( Of course this is all a realistic approach, so if you are more of a SIM style, this may not be for you.

)

1)Realistic Sub-Ins/Out

One of the biggest gripes about formation subs was that whenever you went to that formation with a player on the sideline, that player(s) just automatically appeared in the game..

HOWEVER, we all know in reality, the player has to run on the field & get in the game.

This could be something added in the future & should feature players running in & out of the game. This only takes about 5 seconds at most and shouldn't be too much of a problem. (Plus, it makes you think about Clock Time/ Play Clock etc).

This could be applied for Auto-Subs as well. (Also, the defense has the opportunity to sub in/out as well)

2)Scripted Plays

While this is a little bit more built toward gameplay, than the actual auto-sub feature; It would be nice to be able to have 2/3 plays already called & set-up without having to go to the play call screen. <<< However, you could only do this after a time-out, before the game, opening halftime).

This would allow users who like to set-up their opponent with different plays back-2-back quickly. (Of course you can audible out of them).

Back to Formation subs- lets say you set-up two different formations with personnel that have to come in-out of the game, instead of the sub taking the regular 5 seconds, maybe it could take less ???

But, this is all an idea. What do you all think??
