[@Sub2Beastyn]

So real, they need to make better WR and QB xfactors. I really like it when I have a fast quarterback, but I don’t want to have my ability as truzz. They could’ve done something better like a dual threat one. For example, rush for a certain amount of yards or throw 3 consecutive 5+ yard completions. Then probably activate almost something like run and gun but something like truzz too. Wide receivers need to have something better. I should not be able to immediately turn off my X Factor if a wide receiver, misses a bad throw. And they need to add something like a route running X Factor or a one where they catch more spectacular catches.

[@La_Rodeo]

If you’re playing franchise you can change their abilities, but I feel you. Giving a power RB, jukebox is kinda dumb🤦🏾‍♂️😂

Some RB's ARE returners. RB's and WR's share the some abilities due to both of them being ball carriers.

There's a bug with the ticker during franchise where it shows stats from a random game and not the one you're in. For example it'll show cincinnati vs KC score, but show stats from Minnesota and Houston

[@MadisonAvenue074]

Would be cool if they updated some Of the QBs cadences and stances

[@q-dawwg626]

They need to implement a slider that controls/adjusts the pass/run frequency for the CPU. Example: A team that passes more than runs vs a team that runs more than passes so that in Franchise mode the CPU isn't passing 35-40 times a game while only running approximately 10 times a game. Very unbalanced.... can we get that option please?? That's the ONLY thing in my opinion that's keeping this Madden 25 gameplay from being as realistic as possible while also fun and competitive. Thoughts? 🤔

Or passing 50 times

Probably the most annoying bug in franchise mode is when you go to edit a player and every now and then it’ll randomly take away the players face scan. Headshot will still be there but face scan gone. That’s probably one of the biggest things and I know they’ve been made aware of it as it is on their forums. 7:47

Still haven't fixed the ticker on the bottom. Most of the time it shows player stats that aren't on the teams shown. Also add the team names instead of just the logo.

I need them to find a way to make route running more precise. I get that collisions on crossing/mesh routes happen in real football, but my receivers should not run into each other every time I call a corner/post pick play.

I can’t stand the overthrows and out of reach misses from unpressured quarterback with perfect accuracy. Superstar abilities and even dots activated. I’m all for great qbs missing passes when pressured. But when your feet are set with a great QB and your missing a wide open out route or a medium range in cut that’s ridiculous

[@greyfox4577]

Can't remember which madden they let you manipulate the camera however you wanted and this was 20 years ago, but don't understand why they can't do that, why do they have to preset camera angles instead of giving us the option of having preset or choose our angle and zoom.

[@ItsJuJu26]

They need to allow you to create custom shoes and put certain colorways on certain players instead of the shoe changing to team colors depending on away or home. 2k has this feature and it’s great. It looks odd when everyone is wearing the same colored shows with no type of customization.
