The Return of Formation Subs in Madden NFL 17

[CrazyBruin12]

So I message RG Madden on Twitter and he said reason why u can't put SS at LB is because, We used the franchise mode depth chart logic to prevent exploits. We hear the feedback about SS at LB etc and will investigate. SO based on what he said they still could put it in the game

Can formation subs be used with "custom" playbooks?

We still don't know with certainty one way or the other.

I'm seeing a lot of complaining, but I want to say thanks to the devs, game changers, and everyone else who made this happen. I was content to wait a year for this, but this makes M17 so much better IMO. Can't wait to come up with some special packages on defense!

Progress has been made, Madden Dev Team does hear us. My not be everything but I'm thankful for these many improvements the Madden Team has done for us.

Why are kickers and punters going in at QB? I wish they'd change it to anyone on the roster with a decent minimum thp/tha

I think kickers/punters at quarterback will be used for holding kicks.

I know some wish this was less restrictive but, as soon as it was announced I wondered how the commish of my online CFM would handle the cause an unlimited formation subs may cause in our league. I understand that an off line CFM shouldn't suffer because of that.

It in. That's the good part. If they can add a feature this last minute then they can adjust it if they want.

Im an old head with an old school mentality; so these formation personnel restrictions dont bother me none.

Re: The Return of Formation Subs in Madden NFL 17

People complaining , like myself, have very right. Am I glad it's in? Yes. But it's an incomplete feature that was inexcusably removed. If you're going to add a feature back in it shouldn't be so restrictive.

That's not a tough crowd. That's a hungry crowd with realistic expectations.

This is frustrating. This was what I was most excited for.

Re: The Return of Formation Subs in Madden NFL 17

My main issue was gameplay.
The BSH of def players on kickoff was/is always much higher than LB's BLK ratings on KR causing them to be swimmed or block broken with ease.

Don't know why def players were chosen on the return team when a good 99% of blockers on the return are from the offensive side (for there blocking abilities of course).

Good thing is that the positions never change (i.e. 3rd MLB, 2nd ROLB etc), so there's still the ability to tweak ratings to clean the KO/KR phase up if we're not satisfied.
Just requires some elbow grease.

So what should they have done in your opinion? Not bring it back until it's exactly like some want? So someone like me would have to do without? I can do a lot of sim things with this feature as it is.

Seems like it will be easier to make changes to it during the cycle now that it's in rather than to keep waiting for it.

Never have taken it out, implemented it sooner, not half-blanked it.

I mean yes I'd rather have what they are giving over nothing. But that should not satisfy people or be the bar. Half done features/additions only add the the list of issues in a sports title.
