Gridiron Notes: Madden NFL 21 Franchise Updates
Absolute and complete trash for people who play franchise..
- The new X-Factors make their way into Franchise. More details on X-Factors in Madden NFL 21 coming soon!
- Franchise has an expanded Wild Card Playoff round to match the real-life NFL which now features 3 games for each conference instead of 2.
- Updated all rookie contract amounts to be more authentic to the actual Draft rookie contracts for all 7 rounds
- Retuned every position's available Abilities to better consider in-game effectiveness of the ability and archetype authenticity. Also made the 2nd ability unlock for most positions 85 OVR (was 80 OVR in Madden NFL 20.)
- Fixed multiple cases in logic of players considered for a Dev Trait upgrade at the end of the season not checking the correct stat types.
- Updates to all team back-end depth chart philosophies so they match the team's scheme.
- Added position-specific Offensive Lineman archetype progression buckets for OT, OG, and C to capture variance in OVR formulas based on positional expectations. Previously, all OL were pulling from the same progression bucket.
- Fixed issue where defensive playbooks and schemes for our fictional coaches would be misaligned (e.g. 3-4 playbook with a 4-3 scheme.)
Thats what my exact thought was. This is going to be a pass for me.These are new features??? Reads like a tuner update
Mostly the UI, and some controlsWatched some videos. It literally looks like the exact same game. Did they change....anything at all? Seems lazy even for Madden this year.
I have the xbox and the original 14. Gathering dust somewhere.Do yourself a favor and download a PS3 emulator and NCAA 14...much better game
A playoff would be awesome. Hopefully the modding community gets there soon.I have the xbox and the original 14. Gathering dust somewhere.
It's okay. Needs a playoff though. f***in' BCS.
Saw the most weirdest glitch yesterday while playing where the franchise video of Rivera in the background never went away. So it was in the background of the character I made for The YardIGN gives it the lowest scoring Madden game of all time in its review in progress.
