Madden NFL 18 Features New Target Passing, Coverage Assignments & More

[RogerDodger]

EA has always considered Madden a simulation. That makes me wonder whether the "Simulation" mode isn't what we already have in terms of gameplay, while the other styles are tweaked accordingly. Might be a while before we find out. I'd love a simulation mode to be far superior to what we already had but that remains to be seen.

Well that's the way you can tell the huge leap in these newer games. I just did it on YouTube on my phone

It might be...but it could at least be a step in the right direction where gameplay changes (via patches) can be made for the competitive gamers without affecting the sim community.

Regarding sleeves in the video Brady has the short sleeves and they still look painted on. Hopefully they have a more realistic looking texture. I also gotta say that screen shot of Brady looks amazing.

I'm thinking 3v3 might be a EASFL deal (just like EASHL for NHL.)

I really hope competitive and simulation are options you can search for in online ranked. I'll be bummed if I'm relegated to leagues, offline to use the sim sliders. Please have two different leaderboards for both sim and non-sim.

This is a good point and what I worry about most. It could be a step in the right direction but if it's built on the current base I honestly don't think it's going to change much. There's also other issues with unrealistic player movement (i.e. D-Lineman in coverage, swerving, etc.) that are global issues that I don't think separate game settings can change so it's going to be interesting to see how they handle that type of stuff. I'd love to see this be the kickstart for some more randomness and difficulty to be implemented though. Not expecting botched snaps anytime soon but hopefully missed FG's will actually be a thing.

But what if the different modes (Arcade, SIM, Competetive) only means different slider settings?

I don't want to get to hyped because it would be amazing if the modes mean things like botched snaps and errant throws.

We will see.
