Madden 22 (https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=338777)

Beta details are emerging...franchise mode upgrades are interesting...

Quote:

The new franchise mode stuff looks and feels promising, definitely get more minor injuries during the season so depth is always good

Quote:

Practice gives the most upgrades based on how intense it is. So full pads, light pads, no pads. But, if you have the setting on, players can get injured in padded practice.

Quote:

So far team building seems to be better, staff gets upgraded regularly and the ai seems to draft better

Quote:

There is a HOF induction, it gives like a temporary boost to players of that position like an inspiration bonus.

Quote:

In the regular season you can do different types of practices. Like you can do a light practice with no pads or a full padded practice where players have a chance to get hurt. There’s Also like press conferences before games now

Quote:

Drafted players will take the new number rule into consideration.

Had multiple CPU drafted players with numbers like 8 on WRs or 15 on MLBs.

Quote:

Momentum bar.

Each team's home stadium has unique levels of perks. 3 for the home team, and 2 for the away team (Not sure if the away teams perks are unique to the opponent, or the home team' stadium).

The game starts off with the first level of perks for the home team, and every play (the bigger the play, the bigger the influence) has an effect on the momentum bar.

Picture it like below, H meaning Home team perk, A meaning Away team perk.

A->A->(H)->H->H

After a big play for the home team it could move to unlock the second tier of perks for the home team.

A->A->H->(H)->H

But wait! The away team just got a pick six swinging the momentum their way!

A->(A)->H->H->H

Perks are things like disabling hot routes for primary receivers, delayed motion, play art hints, primary receiver hints, etc. The higher the tier of perk, the more powerful the perk. Nothing game-breaking though, which is good.

Brand new super bowl intro and win animations too

Scouting is getting an overhaul too, to be updated in a live service update in September.

Sim stats still arent fixed
Trade logic is still not up to par
Most of the animations are the same
Runs and looks smooth (Series X)
Aggressive catch still busted
Blocking still atrocious

Still garbage like always.

if you're not buying, maybe stay out of the thread

No…..I don’t think I will.

Referring to EA and their lack of ability to fix shit that’s been broken for years?

thanks for your input

looking forward to madden 22? stay

not? 500 other threads to peruse

That has to be one of the lamest attempts at a skill tree mechanic I think I've ever seen.

i'm sure you don't have to buy

I can't believe you're pushing 40 and still buy a new copy of Madden every year.

You're gonna have a majority of jaded previous players skeptical of EA's ability to turn the ship around and that is definitely fair but I appreciate that there at least appears to be an effort in regards to revitalizing Madden's Franchise mode.

I'm not sure if I'll be buying Madden, just switched to PC and I really only enjoy playing an online franchise if there are 26+ dedicated owners but this looks to be a step in the right direction.
