Star's Madden Rating


Catalyst

Recommended Posts

As odd as it sounds, 2k needs to make a football game again and EA needs to make a baseball game again.

2k baseball is borderline embarrassing and madden's "infinity" engine is bs lol. I tell my buddies all the time, if EA made maddens player engine similar to FIFAs player engine, game would be a ridiculous hit.

Everything is a magnet, but, in this madden, my teammates can tackle me too!

I like star's rating though. Block shedding is my favorite stat for a DT

I can live with the gameplay of the current Madden engine, but my issue now is what they've done to franchise mode. No more NCAA draft classes (only fake EA-made players to draft) and no editing players in career mode, not even to switch positions.

 

For someone like me who likes to run a realistic 'simulation' style franchise, they've really ruined the whole experience.

I'm dying for 2K Sports to make another football game (NBA 2K13 was outrageously mindblowing). Madden has been poo for years now.

I have had an awesome idea for a football game for years and really wish I had the money or knew someone to pitch it too.

Need to breakup the EA monopoly. They ruined Sim Racing back when they bought out papyrus who made the beloved NR2003 which consumed most of my free time. Then they went out and put NFL 2k and College Basketball 2k both of which were better than EAs counterpart.

Yeah, Madden's franchise mode is terrible now. Arguably the worst part for me is the omission of the fantasy draft. It was awesome to be able to draft your own team from scratch.

 

Outside of that, I hate how it lacks a lot of other features as well. I hate that I can't save games midway through so I don't have to put aside like 45 minutes just to play a single game. I also wish there was a mini-camp like there used to be, with certain drills that could be run.

 

I dunno why I buy into Madden still. I like the infinity engine though, aside from teammates tripping over each other (which is at least hilarious to watch regardless)

    • This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.  
    • I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it. 
    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
