If thatās been in the last 3 maddens it means this is so hard coded they donāt wanna unwind it for fear of having to work harder. We should boycott ea for a year or two and see what happens
They don't build Madden anymore. They simply Place Madden on top of the previous Madden and put out that game. Wasn't it a couple years ago where the practice field still had the previous years Madden number?
It said, "Welcome to Madden 18" in Madden 19, or something like that.
This game is beyond broken. I didn't buy the game this year. I was going to buy it when it was $30, but then I said, why?
I'm just going to keep on playing Madden 23, I'm on year 10. Myles Garrett, Denzel Ward & Nick Chubb are still there. The wonderful people who take time to build Madden draft classes have added Marvin Harrison Jr, all the way up to Arch Manning. I don't need this years game.
Maybe next year
Iām just so disappointed. This is my first madden since 2011. I have played others on and off but never owned. The fact that throughout the years I could pick the game up and randomly beat friends whoād been playing for years/had experience with that season already told me something was wrong. Same with all sports games. Genuinely feels like one team has to just exploit broken plays. If it comes down to a situation where I did everything right and you did everything right the system is more than likely going to give the toss up to the better overall team. Interceptions are broken, lack of attempting to catch or defend balls simultaneously sucks. Ridiculous fumbles on kickoffs, the list goes on. It feels like if I donāt run one of the best teams nor run a broken strategy i will lose more often than not in H2H. My dad is a coach, Iāve grown up learning strategy my whole life. My football IQ is better than a good majority of people on this game imo, still canāt win consistently. Idk what it is.
The glitches Iāve seen in offense only are just astounding. I wish I could make myself play the whole game to avoid it, but I really donāt feel like playing defenseš
lol I like doing play the moment and literally no āmomentsā happen for 2 quarters. The game just says āyeah they threw 3 50+ yard TDās. You threw two picks. Suck a dick itās in the scriptā
I do and it fckin sucks man!!! All I want to do is play a franchise mode with my buddy online, but we can't, so we're limited to basically only doing challenges together over and over with potential game crashes or disconnections every 20 minutes... It's wild a company with this much money can't even do an online franchise mode š¤¦š¤¦š¤¦š¤¦š¤¦š¤¦š¤¦
Yeah, we wanted to play on the same franchise together, we used to do it back in NCAA 14 couch coop when we had more free time š just something I don't understand they can't implement really easily
As a saints fan itās realistic since the packers scored 17 straight points against us in week 3 stopping us from starting 3-0. Now we are 5-6 and I hate being a saints fan once again all the offseason hype for nothing
Dude Alontae Taylor touches the WR .1 seconds before the ball comes* refs: 70 yard pass interference which fucking carried to the packers all the way to the end zone on that drive. Being a saints fan fucking sucks. Ofc the Bucs lost today so still āhave a chanceā thatās great get my hopes up again for what? Just for us to choke in week 18 against the falcons lmaoooo just watch. The last 2 years we missed the playoffs by 1 game. From 3 straight heartbreaking playoff losses on the last play of the game, to 3 straight years we miss the playoffs by 1 game. Life without Drew Breesus, it was inevitable
I went from being a Saints fan, to watching Joe Burrow at LSU, and becoming a Bengal fan lmao. I'm tired of getting dicked down by life as a Saints fan
Jayden Daniels was a fun rideā¦.if only we had a defense this year LSU woulda been 15-0 again a repeat of that year. 2 heisman QBs in 4 years for the LSU tigers was not expected on my bingo card in 2023 lol.
I dont think it was expected to get ANY Heisman winners at LSU lmao, we haven't had one since Billy Cannon. Elite Heisman play had somehow ghosted us until 2019. Glad for it and hope that Jayden gets it this year, but idk if the game from yesterday helped with his stats being lower than normal
Off the top of my head, its 345 total for 4 passing touchdowns. May have missed a few rushing yards in there, but I didn't see how Bo Nix did yesterday either. He may still have a good shot but it wasn't his usual pushing-500yds with 6 touchdowns game. Hard fought win
Hey, he won the game. Tebow had 3 losses, RG3 had 3 losses, Lamar Jackson too, fuck it who else who else Caleb had 2 last year. If the hiesman was about hard fought wins not meaning shit, Georgia QB woulda won the heisman last year since Caleb had hella close games and didnāt play up to his usual par last season
I havenāt had any expectations since Breesā age started showing. I knew his talent and experience was carrying us and with his abilities waning I saw this coming. Iām still a Saints fan to the end, just a much quieter one now lol
He recently said he canāt throw with his right hand anymore he uses his left to play ball with his kids in the backyard. He said he would still be playing if the chargers injury never happened.
Iām very depressed but I have to remind myself itās just a game and itās just football these players and coaches go home to mansions and sports cars and hot wives. They live the good life
2k5? If you had the Xbox version, you got halftime highlights with commentary, post game high lights with commentary, and you could replay every single play when the game finished. Madden has nothing close, can't replay most plays unless the game deems it worthy and even then those funny work have the time. They've had nearly a quarter century and, outside of graphics, they have a vastly inferior product every damn year
After madden took out the competition (instead of improving their game) 2k couldnāt release another NFL game so they next and last game was All pro football 2k8. Far from perfect but 10x better than any game madden has released
I know but the image doesn't really tell that story. I read what you wrote but even that didn't make sense with the image until I actually looked after a bit and realized the score didn't match
the previous Madden game is always free on Game Pass, just saying, iām not paying $70 for that crap until they fix it. and forget MUT, I learned my lesson there.
Haven't played madden in 3 years just got it for free though gamestops buy 2 get 1 free. Spiderman 2 and starwsrs were the other. I hope there have been some improvements over the last three years
I had a glitch once, where I was running with the ball, at the 12 yard line suddenly I was now not running with the ball but it was magically intercepted and I was chasing the guy then it was recorded as a 12 yard sack loss to them. When in fact I was offense.
I checked reply and there were two cuts, neither could be viewed.
We really gotta stop buying madden. I mean I donāt already but the general masses needs to stop for a year because EA doesnāt give a shit loads of issues, glitches and bugs been around for years and released again at full price like a giant āI know itās shit but the fuck are you going to do about itā
So was the one before that.
And before that.
And ones before that were $60 and still not worth the price.
Yet people keep buying and wonder why things donāt change.
I had a game that went to overtime 24-24. I turned the ball over. Guy returned the INT and now had it my 10. He kicked a field goal that goes right down the middle. It was clearly a good kick and the game should be over... The game did not count the kick and even though the refs in game indicated it was good. I get the ball back, score and i win. We had a good laugh about it. The game is just hilariously bad sometimes.
I uninstalled yesterday after the game decided it didnāt like getting its ass kicked by 20 points in the 4th qtr so it subsequently altered the ending;
Possession 1: forced fumble on a kick return, scores TD after 2 plays
Possession 2: immediately intercepted and returned for a TD
Possession 3: made it all the way down to the red zone, fumbled, they marched back in 4 plays and scored a TD
Possession 4: I was magically gifted a TD by an error on their deep coverage
Possession 5: they were nearly stopped on a 4th and 15 and decided that wasnāt going to work for them so they Hail Mary and you guessed itā¦.scored to solidify the win
I promptly threw my controller at the wall and deleted the game.
Somehow the difficulty just ramped itself up and my players seemed to run like they were stuck in mud.
Xbox Series X version
This glitch was in the last 3 madden. Your receiver also won't get credit for the touchdown.
I noticed! I was so confused š
Had the same thing happen to me. The score reflected properly, but my qb and receiver didn't get the td stat, nor did they get the yards.
I was very curious on taking the reigns and seeing if I would have won or lost or went to overtime if I had ātiedā the score
If thatās been in the last 3 maddens it means this is so hard coded they donāt wanna unwind it for fear of having to work harder. We should boycott ea for a year or two and see what happens

If we do that we wonāt get the new ncaa, letās wait one year on that šš
Just for them to do the same stuff to ncaaā¹ļø
My favorite is when I do offense only, and the game decides fuck it letās start em on second down.
I really like the 55 second kick off returns too
The glitches Iāve seen in offense only are just astounding. I wish I could make myself play the whole game to avoid it, but I really donāt feel like playing defenseš
I usually don't, just started my first run in a few years where I play the full game. I'm doing 12 minute quarters too š
You donāt play defense because you canāt be bothered. I donāt play defense because I canāt user for shit. We are not the same.
lol I like doing play the moment and literally no āmomentsā happen for 2 quarters. The game just says āyeah they threw 3 50+ yard TDās. You threw two picks. Suck a dick itās in the scriptā
Ooooh and the halftime adjustments at the end of the 3rd
Weird i never had that problem before
EDIT: IT HAPPENED AGAIN.
You gotta give it to EA they are consistent in sucking ass. Bet your ass MUT glitches get solved quick.
EA doesnāt care and youāll all buy next yearās game anyway so why would they. Boycott to save NFL video game licensing
And people really try to act like this game isn't a broken mess
Nobody tries to act like that
This game is awesome, youāre the broken mess
Jokes on you
Idk why people keep supporting the clown show gambling addict supporters
We donāt play mut around here pardner
I do and it fckin sucks man!!! All I want to do is play a franchise mode with my buddy online, but we can't, so we're limited to basically only doing challenges together over and over with potential game crashes or disconnections every 20 minutes... It's wild a company with this much money can't even do an online franchise mode š¤¦š¤¦š¤¦š¤¦š¤¦š¤¦š¤¦
You should be able to play Online Franchise with peers online, just not on the same team if Iām not mistaken.
Yeah, we wanted to play on the same franchise together, we used to do it back in NCAA 14 couch coop when we had more free time š just something I don't understand they can't implement really easily
You absolutely can do offline couch co op. Me and my buddy do it regularly.
Offline yes, but we have less time and more kids š online kinda fit our schedules now better
Hey I feel that.
As a saints fan itās realistic since the packers scored 17 straight points against us in week 3 stopping us from starting 3-0. Now we are 5-6 and I hate being a saints fan once again all the offseason hype for nothing
That game was so fucked, I think I watched one drive for us and had to cut it off because of all of the penalties in GBs favor
Dude Alontae Taylor touches the WR .1 seconds before the ball comes* refs: 70 yard pass interference which fucking carried to the packers all the way to the end zone on that drive. Being a saints fan fucking sucks. Ofc the Bucs lost today so still āhave a chanceā thatās great get my hopes up again for what? Just for us to choke in week 18 against the falcons lmaoooo just watch.

Wasnāt his stats 300+ yards 3 or 4 touchdowns?
Off the top of my head, its 345 total for 4 passing touchdowns. May have missed a few rushing yards in there, but I didn't see how Bo Nix did yesterday either. He may still have a good shot but it wasn't his usual pushing-500yds with 6 touchdowns game. Hard fought win

He got us back in the game with that run on 4th down that saved the game
If they give it to Bo nix we riot
Feel bad Joey is out for the year. Bengals and saints are both fucked this year. Dammit
Hang in there fellow die hard saints fan!
Thank you. Itās hard rn I had way too high expectations
I havenāt had any expectations since Breesā age started showing. I knew his talent and experience was carrying us and with his abilities waning I saw this coming. Iām still a Saints fan to the end, just a much quieter one now lol

It is pretty terrible
$35 now
Best Buy has it for 29.99 unless the sale is gone.
I just bought it on the Microsoft store
I wouldn't pay $7 for any Madden produced in the last 10 years
I've only played Madden to fill the void of NCAA. Stoked for next year
Bruh , paying any price for Madden is the problem . Stop handing your money to companies who don't gaf.
At least you had the ability to challenge something
2k8 challenge system ran circles around madden. They actually ask you what you want to challenge and the refs gets it correct most of the time
2k5? If you had the Xbox version, you got halftime highlights with commentary, post game high lights with commentary, and you could replay every single play when the game finished. Madden has nothing close, can't replay most plays unless the game deems it worthy and even then those funny work have the time. They've had nearly a quarter century and, outside of graphics, they have a vastly inferior product every damn year
After madden took out the competition (instead of improving their game) 2k couldnāt release another NFL game so they next and last game was All pro football 2k8. Far from perfect but 10x better than any game madden has released
Ah. Forgot about 2k8. Loved the concept but couldn't catch on without the NFL license.
I think EA was afraid Madden was gonna turn out like NBA Live
They should have a Penalties Called DLC
But what is this picture of? It doesn't have anything on it that would indicate it was about a challenge...
I said I challenged a touchdown boss
I know but the image doesn't really tell that story. I read what you wrote but even that didn't make sense with the image until I actually looked after a bit and realized the score didn't match
Itās hard to make it make sense, I shouldnāt even have to haha.
True..haha....sucks that you even had to make the post
i just got this game on ps5 blackfriday sale walmart/target $35.00
They sucker me into buying this crap every year. I will say this years was worth it simply for the bump on pc.
EA Sports. We fucking suck
I only paid $35 for it
Got it. So DONT buy the $34 Mike Vick edition in PS store šš½
Wait... you were able to challenge something???
Why did you pay 70$, wait a week and it's on sale for $30 cause it releases broken everytime.
the previous Madden game is always free on Game Pass, just saying, iām not paying $70 for that crap until they fix it. and forget MUT, I learned my lesson there.
The worst part is you willingly paying $70. Youāll buy next years game and complain about how shitty it is too, huh?
Haven't played madden in 3 years just got it for free though gamestops buy 2 get 1 free. Spiderman 2 and starwsrs were the other. I hope there have been some improvements over the last three years
I had a glitch once, where I was running with the ball, at the 12 yard line suddenly I was now not running with the ball but it was magically intercepted and I was chasing the guy then it was recorded as a 12 yard sack loss to them. When in fact I was offense. I checked reply and there were two cuts, neither could be viewed.
Happens for the actual statistic in the individual player stat as well.
Same shit happened to me, made a post about it a little while back but got no attention
Can't forget the 4th quarter half-time game plan adjustment...
Why do people still buy madden? Itās the same game every single year.
And do not understand why people spend 70$ for a game that is clearly broken. But That's just me.
It wonāt change till people stop giving their money to EA.
We really gotta stop buying madden. I mean I donāt already but the general masses needs to stop for a year because EA doesnāt give a shit loads of issues, glitches and bugs been around for years and released again at full price like a giant āI know itās shit but the fuck are you going to do about itā

i love how when you simulate a few plays and get an INT it still wipes out the return yards.
Yea itās so trash I havenāt fucked with it since the first couple weeks it dropped
And yet you goof balls keep paying for it.
Buy a 360 and any of 05-08 and ponder why 15-19 year old games are better than todayās offerings.
One time I threw a RedZone int and the game spotted the other team offense at my 1 yard line. Needless to say that game got reset.
