Madden '17
Anyone getting a little excited? Seems like they have really made an effort this year.
Franchise mode is getting an overhaul according to recent news: 1. Full player editing while your franchise is progressing. https://media.easports.com/content/w...mage_7.img.jpg 2. Coaching/FO decisions. https://media.easports.com/content/w...mage_0.img.jpg 3. In-game ticker with live updates. https://media.easports.com/content/w...mage_6.img.jpg 4. Practice squads. https://media.easports.com/content/w...mage_8.img.jpg 5. New commentary team that will actually talk about things happening in your franchise. 6. Draft has been tweaked with more busts/gems. Gameplay improvements: 1. Zone Coverage overhaul. https://media.easports.com/content/w...mage_1.img.jpg 2. New ball-carrier special moves. 3. Real gap control on defense. 4. Real ball physics. In the past the ball would tether to a player based on ratings. They also overhauled kicking to make it a challenge now. There's a new three-click system and weather/location will play a factor. Also, apparently on clutch kicks if the opponent "freezes" the kicker by calling a timeout the kicking meter will disappear and you have to make the kick by muscle memory. Kicks and punts can also be blocked. How badly all of this shit is ****ed up on release remains to be seen but it does seem like they are making a big effort. |
Added bonus: the gameplay trailer features the Broncos ****ing over the Chiefs. LMAO

One thing that annoys me, and it's not a huge deal. But they had the pacifier mouth pieces in like madden 04. Why can't they have them in the game now? Especially since half the skill position players use one
|
This would probably be the 1st year since 11 I'd buy it but I don't think they're making a PS3 version...
|
I really LOVE the idea of freezing the kicker, honestly makes TIME OUTS even more valuable
|
Wow...you can edit a player all the way? Maybe they shouldn't have been dumb and taken that out a long time ago.
I paid $60 for the game. I'm pretty sure that if I want to edit a player....I should be able to. |

This is why i'm happy to wait a season or two before picking up another Madden. At the end of the day, it's same exact ****ing game it's always been. I'd rather pay $5 for that than $60. |
Its all well and good that they add new features. Hey, that's great....
However, the gameplay is what's important and it looks exactly the same every year. The same plays, the same graphics, the same commentary. On and on and on. Don't ****ing tell me that they've hit the glass ceiling with this, either. Take a look at the MLB games. Every year the gameplay and graphics improve. The multiplayer improves as well. I am so anti-madden now it's disgusting. What the need to do is sell this year's copy with free roster DLC updates for next year and take a while to really improve the product. Every year people defend this tripe. Oooh WOW! We can now edit a player mid season! Yaay! **** them. Give the license back to 2K sports and see what a real NFL game looks like. |

What's the appeal in editing a player's stats mid-season?

It was #1 on the community want list though, apparently. |

New commentary with new announcers, zone coverage completely reworked, gap control, ball physics...a lot has changed. Don't know if this means anything but Madden '17 was nominated for best in show at E3. |

It will be a chess match this year. Zones playing correctly, gap control, route matching concepts... kids will not be able to run FB dive and bench concepts all game. There are some posts from game changers that have logged over 40 hours already testing. The threads are over at operation sports. |
They really need to fix the defensive AI recognition. I hate when dudes online use the same three plays all game.

M17 has new corrected zones that defend passing concepts correctly, ie buzz zones will sit to corner routes and give the flat up correctly. |
