Madden Sims

[benderbender]

The biggest indictment on the current Madden franchise is when EA got the data that people were still playing NCAA 2014. And popular streamers were getting good views as well.

akcash, was that part of a Madden roster update or did you download a roster that someone did on Madden?  If downloaded, which one was it?

 

Thank you in advance. 

 

 

Hey dollars 2 donuts 

 

yeah I just found it on youtube. Could ask the guy in the comments maybe.

I don’t think that’s an indictment because people like college football lol

I could never be bored enough to watch a Madden sim and then break the game down. 

but you could at least be bored enough to contribute to a thread on a chat board about a madden sim game break down… so there is that 😉

Yep!!

Funny Hines and Harris are the 2 RBs.  Guess Cook got cut in Madden Sim.  😂

Some things I liked about it.

 

-Has McGovern and Torrence in and both do good as expected in pass pro. Allen is sitting in the pocket a lot which I strongly feel is going to be the case this season.

 

-Lot of 2 TE sets with Kincaid and Knox. 

 

-when we got 3 wide slot of Harty.

 

-Allen has tough game which I feel is realistic with Fangio.

 

-Has a lot of Bills focus on run game.

 

-Low scoring tough defensive game.

 

-Von in, good rotation on dline.

 

-Dorian William's at MLB. Highlights his speed and physicality on some plays.

 

Great sim! Worth a watch!

 

 

Harris with 53 on 15 carries, but he got yards when he needed to get them.

 

Davis was huge.  As much as he could be when Josh only throws for for 168, if memory serves.  Almost 90 going to Gabr.

 

Nothing really from Diggs until they needed it on the last drive.

Watched the Raiders Sim on YouTube. James Cook is nowhere to be found.

This was the only thing about the sim that got it wrong. That and our offensive playcalling was too conservative. I liked some of the usage of Hines out of the backfield tho. That is a weapon that have been criminally under utilized.

Seeing what's happened to Madden is so sad...I wasn't aware they've said they were legit going to try and fix the platform...going to do some digging there, but they've said that in the past too and then just added some feature that used to be in the game years ago back in.

 

Like they need to unwind whatever crap happened when they switched to Xbox 360/ps3... it largely broke when they switched to that version of next gen, but then the damn ultimate team microtransaction bs started and the dev focus shifted on that and they couldn't spend enough time fixing the game...plus the decision to go to animation based game play instead of genuine physics based...

 

I have been playing Madden since the very first console Madden on SNES, so I have seen the entire fall of the franchise.

 

I follow the YouTuber Ryan Moody and he eviscerates them and has many, many examples as to how the animation-based gameplay has ruined the game, not to mentioned the MUT microtransactions. They have ruined Madden, NHL, NBA, FIFA, and now they are working on destroying F1 which they just bought.

We all know how much the lack of competition has contributed to the downfall.

 

I wish the NFL knew.

 

and yeah, I’ve seen the moody videos, too.

 

I still enjoy it, but it was not like it was in the hey day: madden 05 and ESPN NFL 2K5.

 

 

[GETTOTHE50]

everyones is so scared of fangino even when JA17 ripped him a new one on the road in denver.

 

relax everyone. its going to be ok

[The Wiz]

They have a bills vs raiders one.  Bills win 20-14 in OT.

 

I'm sure everyone will be calling for Dorsey's head if that's the case.

 

 

Also, according to madden, Cook is listed 3rd on the depth chart behind Harris and Hines so he wasn't even in the sim.

Yeesh, Tua all day to throw, no running game until the last drive.  I hope the Bills don't look this bad for real.

You’re halfway home.  Now get a Madden sim where McKenzie has a good game and you’ll be fully vindicated.  Maybe you can even write your congressman and get Beane fired.

Maybe I can get you to eat more crayons. The color blue is all gone. But there’s plenty of yellow and green ones

I understand the comparison of graphics in this game vs the games that came out, let's just say a long time ago, but compared to games that have an actual story and world built into them, EA basically does the bare minimum too pump out sports games.

 

They have probably the top 40-50 players get the "we will actually try to make it look like you" treatment but everyone else is going to end up "close enough" while they advertise their new game mechanic that is pointless.

 

 

Yup. They haven’t made any meaningful improvements in a decade.
