Anybody has Madden 19 news ?

[packers96]

Some years ago at this time we already had some news about a new Madden game. At least some images or things like that.

Over the past few years, the news hasn't trickled in about the new game until EA Play, which is second week in June.

This thread was put up a few weeks ago.

They didn't release the cover until late May last year...
So I'd give it awhile.

One guy claims there will be huge improvements to franchise mode:

I guess five years later, it’s better late than never! Cynicism and sarcasm aside, hopefully 18 was the kick in the pants this crew needed. I don’t like Rex at all, but here’s hoping that that tweet is a sign of good things to come.

There have been a lot more indications that CFM was getting an upgrade besides that tweet. I hope people don't hang their hat on one tweet.

Agree, but a year that see Jon Gruden back at coaching, and on the team he should have been coaching in the Super Bowl - The marketing value couldn't be better, IMO, for Franchise focus.

Other games like MLB The Show 18 got criticized for their lack of attention to Franchise this year, from what I read. It may be hard to find anyone who would say that Madden Franchise is as good as MLB's at this point in the series, so this would be a great opportunity on multiple levels.

I believe there are many players who will play a sports game if a particular mode is great, even if they do not like the sport, particularly well. If EA/Tib can make Franchise noticeably better, that could bring in more consumers.

My personal opinion is that MUTs excitement is peaked. I know I have been increasingly less excited to play the mode and grind the solos. There isn't much more they can do for that mode, IN COMPARISON, to what they could do in Franchise.

I also think a Road to the Super Bowl, or Road to the Hall of Fame would be great; This would be similar to Road to the Show in MLB. The issue is, outside recourse for such a project, is clearing up the means to use NCAA teams.

I don't worry about franchise mode, i don't want see my receivers try catch the ball 10 yards off the field. I want see tackles more realistics and more and better QB animations...and a lot others things.
