In the Franchise please add Hall of Fame back. They used to show us if retired players made it to the HOF.

[@MimicbrotherVlogs]

I didn’t play then but that to me sounds sick

[@aroperdope]

You reminded me of the All-Pro or all-madden or all-decade teams that they used to have in the game... I know I'm not the only one who reminisces and misses the after mentioned

[@Imwatching2]

They kinda still do..if u go to legacy tab it shows new retired players n if they are in HOF

[@jj9487]

Go to legacy leaderboard. It will show if they made the hof or not

[@ajdembroski7529]

It's still there, it's just buried in menus and doesn't surface it anymore.

[@ajdembroski7529]

I liked the first Face of the Franchise. Small town kid, from High School to the pros, small elements of choice, pretty well written, and actually some drama during the draft. After that it just kinda fell apart. They sorta leaned into almost a parody of what a teenager today might think being an NFL player is like, it just got dumbed down big time and it was REALLY poorly written.

[@ASG17]

it was simple but good, we get as gamers get greedy

[@bizquitia3252]

Not to mention you would always get drafted to the same exact team

[@michaelr6182]

My problem was my player always glitched out and I had to start everything over. Happend 3 times and I was done.

[@ajdembroski7529]

@kermitandzaira348 Um, what?

[@bmbrowns1778]

IMO The first longshot was the only well written story in any sports videogame i've played. Maybe it wasn't even that great, it was just surprising that a madden game made a half decent story. Glad madden and 2k are bringing back the old school career modes, way more fun

[@erek_awesome]

I still want more customizable options when creating players. Like the ability to add different hair styles and facial hair instead of just the basic faces they give us. Also the ability to add tattoos

Heard absolutely nothing that convinces me this will be a better game. 1) No one ever cared about The Yard. It felt pointless in a game where you could just play a regular game with full squads and pads. 2 & 3) Face of The Franchise having a story was never the problem. The problem was that the story was absolutely terrible. Not only that, but it led directly to technical issues, like in ‘22 where you couldn’t accelerate, or in ‘23 where doing anything off field that’s not practice straight up resets your save to the beginning of your career. Of course they’d just take it out altogether instead of making it make sense 4) They do this every year. Game never actually looks like that, and I’d bet any amount of money that there will still be terrible player models 5) It’s a “wrap tackle” now? Wow revolutionary! Let’s see if they’ve addressed the horrible angles that defensive ai players take to make the tackles in the first place

[@camronstudenka9377]

ik they aren’t but it’d be dope asf if their were different animation packages for players, like how u can pick a qb’s throw animation type u should be able to pick tackle, run, qb stance, catching, pass block, run block, ect. it would go a long way in adding variation onto the field and personality to the players.

@@tdup191 oh, true. I only started playing around madden 16 tho

[@xLuGotti]

@@tdup191the other day it finally dawned on me why they haven’t done it it’s because all those players for the most part are in ultimate team, and even though ultimate team would still have a lot of players because it’s addicting and a lot of people like it. It would draw some attention and money away if they had a mode where you could use all these guys against each other for free and since EA is one of the most money hungry companies that’s why we won’t ever get it again sadly.

[@WillieWayneSports]

thank you for keeping me updated on all madden content. you’re the best ray

[@Cutelycaca]

Ive said it before and dont care what people think. Sports games do not need story modes. Its always been a waste of resources

[@LaunchpadGamingGuy]

For franchise we still need a few big things: 1. Simple add but we need to know the weather and attendance of each game, why not show this at the intro of the game, used be part of the presentation. If a team is losing a lot of games their attendance should go down and vice versa with winning. 2. Improved pro bowl tracking, right now it shows who made the pro bowl but no teams are listed, and the info is hard to find after that week is over. 3. Hall of fame. We need better tracking for annual HOF classes, we should see who made it year to year, and we should have the same 5 year waiting period that we do in real life, currently a player can go in immediately after they retire. Just some thoughts, but appreciate the upgrades this year.

[@RedCometZakoo]

Apparently the NFL asked EA to take out the fans leaving when teams are losing, and some teams not having full attendance because they felt it made the NFL and teams look bad.

[@Just.Passions]

I really wish that had actual scans of these players we watch and cheer for. The field is the second they use have way better intros example ( madden 12 )it was enjoyable game hack then

[@gamerjamson]

I hope they will improve MUT so that your binder will show you which cards cannot be sold or added to sets, etc. without having to select the card.

[@Acegaming281]

The only thing I wish they add into the tackling is the dog piles like on goal line qb sneaks or just running up the middle in general

[@J0SHOFFICIAL]

I never truly hated the story modes with cut scenes, I just wish there were a variety of other stories that you can choose from

[@Harerazer]

The player models are a step back for me. I use created players and drafts mostly and I liked when we had the big Primetime/Dickerson shoulder pads and sleeves. Dickerson's goggles should be added also. I can see changing for better gameplay but I prefer variety AND these things are a part of the league's history.

[@TheGreatDane2000]

they just looked goofy

[@Ravensfan916]

[@nvlangston]

Been playing madden scince madden 14 and shi ain’t change

[@gerardo9577]

The yard was fun when it didn’t have specific roles the first year was fun because you could customize your character however you wanted you could literally be a 300+ 6’6 lineman being QB/WR/TE/DB/LB or you could even be a short ass character making plays at any position

[@jay_james_2024]

The Yard on Madden 22 was EXCELLENT...

[@125BullyCamp]

Superstar mode was my fave. also, Something i liked that i feel they should add back is Stats in franchise mode, Longest recieving td, Most rushing yards in a game etc. It would be like a cut scene on the field when you broke a record. Also the player coming out of retirement in franchise mode.

[@curtisleondouglas7328]

I wish they would let you customize divisions and your schedule for next season and bring the real coach coordinators and dynamic attendance create a new team and edit coaches in owner mode and add new rules like nba. 2k does

[@justinganz1173]

The Longshot was my mode of FOTF and felt like you were watching a movie or tv show and it really gave it that feel to it. And like I think it was neat that they got the a few actors from This Is Us and Friday Night Lights in both years of The Longshot

They need to do classic teams on madden play now like 2k does

[@gotti400082]

Soon as 2k announce their arcade game EA introduce The Yard same year I believe they was banking on 2k to come out the following year Three years later 2k still hasn't come so EA scrapped it EA can be some petty whenever they feel a competition threat

[@cyanmwarrior9809]

I don’t mind cutscenes in superstar mode but FotF had them for things I didn’t care about like “do you go to a charity event or a private workout with a team”. Give me cutscenes for things that regular draft prospects go through, like the combine and interviews (the interview part sucks in M24 though sadly). I feel like Madden tried to do these scenarios like your player is the most hyped prospect ever and it really takes away the immersion for me

[@Texasheisman]

used to love madden but haven’t played it in years, they remove things and add things back with a different name every year

[@donparent8628]

One thing I ways thought was missing from Madden was historic teams. I always like how in NBA2k you can be the the 90's Bulls with Jordan and play against today's teams. What if they had historic teams where the 85 Brears can play the Steelers teams of the 70's. Or what if you can trade those players into your teams (I would love to play with Barry Sanders or relive the Jerry Rice vs Deion sanders days) I think thay will bring a while new element and fun into the game thats currently missing...just my thought

Out of the 4 maddens it was in, the only FOTF I liked was Madden 21. Madden 20 barely did anything, Madden 22 completely flopped in my opinion, and madden 23… I mean it was a different storyline but I just kinda like the getting drafted storyline better. The reason I liked madden 21 was 2 things 1. I liked that we started in high school and the Tommy storylines were pretty interesting 2. It had a choice for any random team to pick you (the other two that had a draft, there was always like 2 or 3 set teams that you always got drafted by and it was so annoying)
