Alot of work ahead for this crew to get it right. When I play Madden or NHL I feel like I'm playing a game developed by a large corporation still capitalizing off the brand name of 20 years ago.

On the flip side when I play NBA 2K or MLB The Show I feel like I'm playing a game developed by fans of the sport who have a passion to capture as many details possible, leaving no stone unturned. Is it 100 percent, of course not, but look at how far each of these franchises have come over years.

I would never celebrate anyone losing their jobs, but sadly this game has been bad for many years now and something needs to change. Maybe a new developer isn’t the worse thing.

Not sure about the now or never mentality, I will believe it when I see it.

Good find Mizzou.

Tight lipped, yeah, normally, it's tight lipped till June or July on new

Madden releases.

Given how most people here seemingly aren't going to be buying M24 anyway, I would guess that folks might want it to have a lot of problems again so that management, it won't be a new development team, would be replaced with the hopes that new management would focus more on the things that they care about, which isn't necessarily a likely occurrence IMO.

This game shouldn’t feel as if it was near completed at the end of the season. That’s one of the biggest issues. They fail to QA this game hitting it hard day and night prior to going live expecting us instead to QA/beta test it while they “address” these issues we found with patch after patch.

This is a really bad business model and it’s driving us as consumers away. Now that Maximum Football is coming out with a free to play game using unreal engine 5 to boot, addressing things fans were asking for in Madden, something really must’ve lit a fire up their asses.

Good to see contract management potentially being a focus.

The mode really needs some QOL improvements for M24. Things like fatigue fixed and CPU scenarios. But I think finally the continued discourse from fans from every mode is catching up to them. Even MUT has had a lot of issues and they're continually giving players free cards to make up for it.

I think management is the issue. The allocation of resources just isn't there to ensure a successful product along with the mangled mess of a code.

"...For Franchise mode, sources say that the developers feel the mode is almost there with smaller additions — aside from the larger fixes to the database issues — being what’s needed to keep players invested. That said, things like better contract management is said to be one of the higher priorities for the mode, though it’s unclear if it will be ready for Madden 24."

Almost there? Smaller additions being what's needed to keep players invested? SMH.
