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)

    • I see that perspective, but there are some glaring differences.  At that time, the QB in Green Bay was entrenched  or proven and Love was the 26th pick of the first round--not the 8th.  Picking him at 8 was a reach, and people in Green Bay thought picking love at 26 was a bit of a reach (I recall many wondering if he would be a first or second rounder).  Cousins is new--has not even met his teammates.  This will impact the locker room differently.  Since the fans are not that attached to familiar as the Cheeseheads were to Rodgers, Cousins will have a bad game and the controversy will begin.  For that reason, I am not sure they did anything but use a first round pick to weaponize their fan base against the QB they just paid $100m in guaranteed money.  That did not happen in Green Bay--it will happen in Atlanta.  Popcorn is out.
    • Arod wasn't new to the team, nor did he sign 180milion deal with 100 million guarantees. Plus love was a 26th pick, not 8th overall. BTW cousins has a no-trade clause as well.... I think it made arod win the MVP too....which in itself worth the pick... The main point of drafting a rookie is for them to play on that cheap contract. At min penix will play two years from now, thus washing out the good part of his contract. Only way this works if cousins gets re-injured or busts. He will be 26-27 and need another contract by then.  No matter what the saints do, Each cap dollars do matter. It's an awful awful deal no matter the out come. Glad panthers will benefit!!
