Matt provides a little more insight into upcoming announcements (ex. Cover athletes, likely roster share, etc.) He's even going to get his hands on the game soon!

Re: Latest Matt Brown Interview May 6, 2024
The guy doing the interview is clueless lol, "The game is really coming out in July? "Theres going to be multiple cover athletes?" Lol yikes.
Matt is making it sound like the full reveal is coming in two weeks, I really wish EA would just make this official because literally everyone knows that its coming at this point.My Teams:
Arkansas Razorbacks
Detroit Tigers
Detroit Pistons
Detroit Red Wings
Detroit Lions -
Re: Latest Matt Brown Interview May 6, 2024
Looks like he is doing a interview with a YouTube channel (trasher football) so hopefully it will be a little bit better. At this point I expect more of the same as he isn't going to go rogue and talk about stuff that will get him in trouble with EARetro Redemption - Starting over with a oldschool PowerBone Offense

Re: Latest Matt Brown Interview May 6, 2024
I get the community is starving for any information they can get, I don't get when guys like him or the announcers are constantly asked about gameplay and more questions, especially before the full reveal. I just feel like there are more appropriate questions for those guys to be askedComment

The second interviewComment

Re: Latest Matt Brown Interview May 6, 2024
The second Trasher interview started off well and feels like there were more appropriate questions for Matt Brown. He pretty much confirms that there is 3 cover athletes. Matt Brown does a good job of explaining why it's unlikely we'll see a college Basketball game or any other sport. He states how CBB never sold well and that either have to cut production costs or drastically increase demand. If CFB does well enough, that could change things, but it's not likely. They would need to deal with NCAA for CBB because they own rights to March Madness
I do like that he made the decision to not leak the cover athletes. It would've been easy to leak them and gain pub to get more people to subscribe to his Extra Points. I think it's smarter to maintain the relationship with the company and be able to information for years to comeComment

Re: Latest Matt Brown Interview May 6, 2024
Not too much different information from Trasher's
But, I did pick up a few new things. Matt said that they programed in teams schedules into the 2030s in dynasty. That EA had the Sports Illustrated license before SI went under. That EA was thinking about modernizing the magazine feature. But, he doesn't believe a social feed(like Twitter) will be in the game. No face scans. No demo/betaComment

Re: Latest Matt Brown Interview May 6, 2024
I was working when i was listening to it yesterday did Matt also say that certain teams will have built in atmosphere for games that happen at a certain time of day so if Penn State is playing a home night game that it will look like the White out?Comment

Re: Latest Matt Brown Interview May 6, 2024
Yes, I heard that. That's the type of game day atmosphere I want to see. I don't want to see what Madden has done with M-Factors or stuff like that. I'd rather them go with school traditions. I also remember him saying it should be different experience playing a LSU night game and a day game.
It was a question on one of these podcasts. But one of these podcasts asked about dynamic crowd attendance in a matter of words. Matt Brown answered the question in a way that sounds like he doesn't know, but thinks it should be. That's what I want to know. We haven't seen dynamic crowds in Madden because that's not something NFL wants to portray. But with EA not dealing with NCAA, hopefully they are able to have dynamic attendance. I know schools will still not want certain things in that paint them in a negative light. But, I'm not sure if having dynamic crowds would be something they wouldn't want in. If I'm starting a 1 star dynasty, I don't want full stadiums. I would want to see the progressionComment

Re: Latest Matt Brown Interview May 6, 2024
The blessing in disguise with this game being away for 11 years, is that it has given EA time to nail stuff such as the things you said. They haven't been chained to the yearly release that leaves little to no time to really add new things that come with bugs as well as build on faulty code.
They really have an opportunity to knock it out of the park, set a good foundation to build on, and give us the game we've all been waiting for since 2013. I'm impressed so far with all that they appear to have done in this first installment. I'm just ready to see it in action."Dunks are tough, but when a 35 footer come rainin out the sky...it'll wire you up"Comment

Re: Latest Matt Brown Interview May 6, 2024
That's what has me confident about this game. As I said many times, I just can't get into Madden. I've tried but I just can't. So of course, there would be some doubts about CFB. But, I've always preferred NCAA over Madden. For me, CFB is a high floor-high ceiling type of game. As long as gameplay is solid, recruiting is solid, and the atmosphere is there, I can get enjoyment out of it. My biggest issue with Madden is direction/approach and atmosphere. I just feel like Madden is building upon foundation that needs to be redone at its core.
I didn't even mind when this game got delayed last year. I'd rather them take their time with it to get the foundation set than to rush out a faulty product. If this was a Madden reskin, it would've released last year. I agree that having that solid foundation to build on is vital. Once you get on that yearly cycle, it's hard to add stuff when you're also allocating resources to maintaining the previous release. We would've gotten a generic roster game, have as much commentary, most of the stadiums may have just been done, the transfer rules were different, etc if they would've released last year. At least now, this should be a series that starts off on the right foot
As Matt Brown said a few times on different podcasts, whether this game is good or bad, it'll be on its on merit. It really feels like EA put a lot of emphasis on this game and hoping that it starts off hot. I almost wonder how Madden will be. I'm assuming that if EA CFB 25 is current gen only, that Madden would follow suit. I wonder if Madden will take that next gen leap. Outside of Charles Davis bringing up multiple announce teams, it's been whisper quiet on the Madden front. We haven't really seen the almost annual Gamestop cover leak. I haven't seen too many wishlists or even rumors on the game. Usually most years, we have an ideal of cover athletes for Madden, I really haven't seen any speculation on the cover athlete at all for Madden and there reveal is usually early June. It just feels like EA CFB 25 has all the buzz that Madden usually has by nowComment

Re: Latest Matt Brown Interview May 6, 2024
There were some tidbits here and there, but both interviews felt the same. I get the idea of "let's see if we can get him to slip up " , but with Matt Brown's professional, he's not going to slip up. You're not interviewing a leaker.
I can get interviewing him after the full reveal. There's obviously a lot of info he said he can't reveal until after the review date and that he said he will get a chance to play the game before the end of the month. Save the interviews until that time, because all we're getting is recycled questions and answers. We're likely a week away at this point.Comment
