    Re: New Commentary Update Available Now For Madden NFL 17, Lets Us Know What You're H

    I really hope they begin having the announcers say the last names of the generated players you (and the other teams) draft in CFM.

    Commentary overall seems outstanding, but from what I've watched in videos of CFM, the game becomes less personal and immersive with commentary, and much more generic with "he makes the tackle" and "he drops back to throw" type of commentary, rather than the announcers actually knowing the players within the league by name.

        I wouldn't have made the comment myself but someone else did and you basically just bagged on him for having an opinion on whether they should be spending time on lines that could be used for many games in CFM versus lines that only make sense for one week. Just wanted him to know that there wasn't just "one."

          Bagged on him? Hopefully you and he find your safe space.

          I mean really. People complain EA doesn't innovate, and they do and come out with something that no one else is doing and people still find some reason to complain about it. And the people complaining have zero idea how it affects CFM (BTW, it apparently has no impact on CFM audio development).

            The thing I'm hearing that is a little disappointing is that the commentary is not reactive. I'm in the second year of cfm and they don't ever say rookie's names (even if the name is in the game) and the commentary doesn't update - after scoring a TD they mentioned that the receiver had scored 6 last season and could improve on it. Yeah, he did - that was a year ago. I also rebuilt the stadium and the commentators are talking like the Raiders might move. It needs to be more dynamic.


            Idk if that's entirely true because when I scored with Gurley in week 2 for the first time of the year they talked about how he was an all pro as a rookie and had 10 TDs last year and with this TD here it now gives him
            11 for his career.

              Where about does this pop-up occur?

                I think CFM stuff will be part of the much larger updates that the dev eluded to. Haven't bought the game but I enjoy reading reactions and analysis from those that have. The commentary is a bright spot. Madden 18 will undoubtedly take it up a notch....hopefully gameplay makes the same, much needed dramatic leap forward.

But, when I first started playing FIFA around 10 years ago, I was amazed at how much more realistic the game was to soccer compared to madden to football. The gameplay and ball physics in FIFA are now truly amazing. So, I don't think FIFA devs are 'lazy'. Lol. They just created the 'story mode' thing, too. I'm not sure what their franchise looks like, cause I only play h2h FIFA. But, anyways, that game and their dev team has always been innovative.

                  I'm sorry I know this is completely off topic but I had to.

                  Fifa is a very pretty game. But realistic? Come on, man.

                  Also, I haven't heard any new commentary in CFM. I guess that's coming later.

                    They talked about Jeremy Langford`s Injury today. Very Up-To-Date. I like.

                        Was playing a game earlier today and they talked about It being Madden release week and players not being happy with their ratings.

                        Good ****.

                          have to disagree with you there.

                          all the FIFA devs care about nowadays is Ultimate Team and trying to kill PES by hoarding licenses.

                          The gameplay (which is worse than PES) has barely changed in 7 years. Same floaty ball physics - same massively arcade styel of playing. The only thing that looks to have improved is by using the Frostbite engine, the player models look less like waxwork figures than they used to.

                            I heard them talk about results to games and injuries that happened in last week's preseason games. GREAT WORK!!

                              Updating commentary is a good idea. Help keeps the game from becoming stale.

                                Only gripe I have right now is the bills stadium is still being called Ralph Wilson stadium. Even though it's now called new era field. But I'm assuming that's a licensing issue more than anything.
