Idk, in nba users can control all the players on the court. I dont think team play works that well in football games because it's not as fun. In Madden they should have upped the number of users to 5 on 5, the more users the better.

Re: Madden NFL 18 MUT Squads Bring Back Online Team Play
Other sports games like NBA 2K and The Show don't back burner Franchise mode and authentic game-play for competitive play. Those franchises put tremendous effort into satisfying both crowds. I don't see why Madden can't do the same.Originally posted by seaspriteIt's a brilliant move on their part, to be honest. It's just another step further away from simulation football and franchise, but I cant say that I wouldn't do the same thing if I were in their shoes. At the end of the day, its all about money and that's the only reason these games are even made in the first place.Last edited by Americas Team; 05-31-2017, 02:23 PM.Xbox Series X: KILLMUNGERComment

I would say that franchise has definitely taken a back seat to Diamond Dynasty in MLB....IMOComment

Re: Madden NFL 18 MUT Squads Bring Back Online Team Play
Hate to be negative but it seems like that's just where the majority is at this point. They're all kinds of ways they could've brought co-op play to Franchise.Originally posted by seaspriteIt's a brilliant move on their part, to be honest.

Just think if you have up to 9 roles you can play in an organization:
Owner- Makes all decisions about relocation, stadium, hiring and firing football staff, heavily influences Football Ops.
Director of Football Operations- Controls football operations, hires and fires staff and coaches, influences public relations, influences scouting, trainer, and GM
General Manager- Signs and trades players, influences scouting and drafting.
Director of Scouting and Development- Drafts and scouts players, influences coach and trainer on development
Head Coach
Defensive Coordinator
Offensive Coordinator
Offensive Captain
Defensive Captain
With all these roles influencing one another and trying to all win a championship. Would be a great mode for both casuals who just want to be players and forget the management roles or hardcore guys who want to control everything.-Rocky Balboa"Maybe I can't win.

Re: Madden NFL 18 MUT Squads Bring Back Online Team Play
Understand and think it would be great, but that doesn't really equal extra $. They tie it in with MUT and it provides another extra revenue stream that builds on an already very profitable mode.Hate to be negative but it seems like that's just where the majority is at this point.

I would give MUT a try if players actually had signature animation packages. I've never understood the intrigue with MUT being that all players basically animate the same. For example, you can't tell the difference between a 99 overall Barry Sanders and a 99 overall Walter Payton except for their physical appearance, even though IRL their running styles were totally different smh. Until Madden is able to differentiate how players animate (especially sig running animations for RB's) I'm good on MUT.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 18 MUT Squads Bring Back Online Team Play
I would argue that most people playing the mode don't care about signature animations or stylistically differentiating players in any way. They just want the 99 speed, juke, truck, hit power, etc, because it's really about them, the User, not the real life player that they are controlling.I would give MUT a try if players actually had signature animation packages.

Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.
Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.Comment

Not one comment about the mention of "several gameplay changes." No one seems to care about the team making it fun to play different positions - like maybe say corner back or heck maybe even offensive lineman? The team brings back 3 vs 3 mode and alludes to the user having more control of different positions and brings more fun to the game and all i see is "EA only cares about MUT and making money" when LAST YEAR they revamped Franchise mode.
It seems like the gameplay is going to be extremely different this year. I'm excited.Last edited by johnnyg713; 05-31-2017, 06:57 PM.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 18 MUT Squads Bring Back Online Team Play
If the gameplay changes allow CPU-controlled players to play more to their ratings, then yes...it is exciting. If it is just a user mechanic, then no...I really don't care. Just my opinion.Not one comment about the mention of "several gameplay changes."

Re: Madden NFL 18 MUT Squads Bring Back Online Team Play
What exactly did they revamp? Just because they said it on the back of the box doesn't mean they did. You can bring guys back from injury a week or 2 early, and you can set your own season goal. So revamped......Not one comment about the mention of "several gameplay changes."

Re: Madden NFL 18 MUT Squads Bring Back Online Team Play
Yeah. 3 v 3 makes sense for esports, for sure. Now, u will really have 'teams' of people that play together. And, the better they play together, the better, overall, they should be. And, I can see scenarios for gameplay conditions, too. Like, u might have 1 guy who is a great QB, but struggles as WR or something. But, u give the teams 3 rounds. And, they have to play a different position each round. Lol. So, the guy who can't QB will struggle. So, yeah, I can see this being interesting for esports. I don't see 5 v 5 coming soon, though. Based on normal formations, I mean, u would force players to be Olinemen. I guess some might enjoy that, and if they made mechanics specific to every position, then maybe. But, I think, in general, and speaking for myself, I'd rather play a skill position, so I think that's why 3 v 3. Soccer, u might do 11 v 11 or 10 v 10 as goalie is always wonky to try and play yourself. U have all players moving and can get the ball at anytime. Same with BBall. It's about who can get the ball, imo. And, football is just a little more limited in that regard.
