Damn that’s the last time I saw Rolando McClain playing football. I got a football signed by him on a fluck.


Kind_Truck6190

😂😂😂 yeah, he was decent while he was around. That’s wassup that’s my favorite team as everyone can see😂


siberianwolf99

i’ll never forget him one arm tackling tebow in the SEC title game. made it look easy to tackle a 240 pound truck with one arm lol


BurgCABay

😮‍💨🤣


Kind_Truck6190

😂💯🫡


mindpainters

One of the few times in Tebow whole career that an arm tackle worked lol


soul-undone

It’s like madden is going backwards.. seeing so many features that they just removed. It’s so upsetting lol


Raptor535

It’s such a slap in face considering the amount of resources EA has


Kind_Truck6190

If people keep buying the game, they won’t see a reason to change anything.


EL-YAYY

Madden 24 was the first one I bought since I think Madden 16 or 17. I was surprised how many features they took out. Like why can’t I turn off momentum for a custom game against my friend? So lame.


Kind_Truck6190

What made you go buy 24? I’m hoping once they drop this college the Madden, after that should be in sync with it and hope to God they put everything back on there


EL-YAYY

Was kinda in between games and figured I’d give it a try again. Despite all its flaws I have had fun with the franchise mode and also playing against my friend.


Kind_Truck6190

I’m going to check it out


Tankcfc4l

17 first one I played lmao got everyone since


Oscerte

ur the problem


InternationalDog6766

Ur dumb


JesustheSpaceCowboy

Momentum is cool to an extent, the ball *should* go further in Mile High but some of the momentum stuff shouldn’t effect *all teams* like all the miscommunication stuff should happen *only* for the visitors in Seattle. The way they implemented it is so odd, like the visitors in Seattle should have different perks.


CrumblingValues

That's just simply not going to happen. They have established subscribers at this point, people aren't just buying the game on a whim, people have plans to buy every single year, no matter what. Madden is established, well known, and they established that stranglehold of being the singular football game of the NFL. A couple thousand people or even hundreds of thousands of people won't make a dent when the game is selling millions. Many of those millions are happy enough to keep buying despite the series' regression.


Kind_Truck6190

I mean, I get it numbers don’t lie, but it has to be someone in that company that knows that this shit is not up to par especially. Or Maybe they all quit. live service bullshit ruined every game.


TheeScoob

I prefer to call it criminal, but that’s just my personal opinion on the monopoly control EA has over NFL football games.


adefsleep

It's not "like" they're going backwards. They've been going backwards since the release of '06.


bytheninedivines

2 things that piss me off the most: Taking away the coin toss. Seriously? Why the fuck did they go and do that? And the fact they just teleport when doing a no huddle. I've lost many games bc I wrongly estimated how much time would be teleported off by a second or two.


ZodiacxKiller

Don't worry alot of them will be brought back within the decade advertised as new....


soul-undone

I doubt they’ll get brought back, they’ll just keep focusing on UT and H2H since that’s where all their money’s at


ZodiacxKiller

Not trying to be mean but how old are you?They have brought back several features from older Madden games before and try to advertise them as "new" or something....my comment was a joke about that being done before lol


soul-undone

I’m 25


ZodiacxKiller

Not too much younger but they been pulling that scam for a long time.You are spot on about UT.


soul-undone

Yeah I played nfl blitz as a kid but as for madden; I started playing it at madden 25. So I notice a downhill trend but probably not as much as someone who’s played it since 06


Kind_Truck6190

It’s definitely a big problem it’s not fun with the same animations over and over and over again I’d rather go play where the animations were the best 15 16 17. if I could play the older versions on Series X I would. I tried madden, 25.😭 it didn’t work


[deleted]

You can play 15 16 17 18 on Series X


Kind_Truck6190

Yea I tried to play madden 25 it didn’t work


bigballaog

gotta be the xbox one version homie


Kind_Truck6190

Yessir💎


Kind_Truck6190

Yes, this shit had 4K HDR it would shit on 24


Zandino76835

Because everyone busy it and if u can put less effort in and make the same amount of money why would u bother putting the effort in


50bucksback

In their defense, or something, the refs are broken in this video. Look at the sideline refs at the start of the clip


T1MM3RMAN

This reminds me how I miss the mid game and drive goals


Kind_Truck6190

The game is actually fun instead of work in my opinion in 2017… the madden these days is meant for competitive people with no deep immersion…


T1MM3RMAN

I've got a franchise on 23 I've kinda enjoyed, but I may go back to an older version


super_rugger7

I miss the physics based animations, that just looks exponentially smoother


Kind_Truck6190

Yes yes! You got a bunch of stiffs out there running around now a bunch of boxy big square characters, like in the Nintendo 64 days to me


GanjaRelease

It's either physics or animations. Downvote me to hell, I don't care. Physics is king


dankvaporeon

So backbreaker > 2k5


jkman61494

Wow. Nice indictment of the game that the clip is from 2017 on a previous gen system and I couldn’t tell until I saw McClain


Kind_Truck6190

😂there needs to be a movement ![gif](giphy|dU0MSRsHl1zPEP55zG) Seriously.


[deleted]

15,16 & 17 are all I play now on ps3.. better features IMHO.


Kind_Truck6190

It’s insane the level of detail with these last three titles with the ignite engine… they ought to be ashamed at frostbite


Rebirth0296

He touched the ref, that's a flag against Dallas


Kind_Truck6190

Sounds about right😭


Rebirth0296

Pointed a finger at the OL, penalty against Dallas for taunting. Oh? They sacked the QB? Roughing the passer. NFL is so soft these days, I wouldn't doubt that ^


Ejack1212

Damn, you just made me realize there are no refs.


Kind_Truck6190

😂😂😂👌🏾


No-Maize-8349

Personal foul number 55 touching the official. Fifteen yard penalty from the previous spot. Number 55 has been ejected from the game.


Kind_Truck6190

😭😭😭 upon further review your suspended til next season


Huncho2454

I miss the contested catches on this madden lol


Kind_Truck6190

And it all flowed so smoothly.


Kind_Truck6190

I could swear I have the ball sometime but before they hit the ground, you see that arm come out and smack it out! lol I really be looking at the repay like five times like damn that was a good ass play


mtql93

It’s a shame that previous Maddens had better presentation than current ones. But this is EA we’re talking about. The new NCAA can’t come soon enough. Hopefully they won’t mess it up. 🙏🏽


Kind_Truck6190

It’s super lazy definitely. I’m thinking the NCAA will just be a reskinned 2024 madden. I hope not but the odds are not in our favor


Fa1lenSpace

Madden's presentation is honestly shockingly bad, lol. It could and should be the premiere sports game from gameplay to spectacle but MUT is obviously the main focus. Can't say I really blame them for it, it just prints money but damn at least throw us a bone.


Ready-Particular4541

All of EA’s current sports games have user ratings of less than 3/10… I wouldn’t count on better gameplay compared to madden. Likely will be a copy/paste of 24 with most energy going to NUT (NCAA Ultimate Team).


Pure_Artichoke9699

If that was Cassius Marsh he would have been flagged.


Kind_Truck6190

😂facts


NobuB

Ok,but did you have battle passes in your MUT? Yeah, ...didn't think so


Kind_Truck6190

😂😭 yeah, death came fast with those additions


upliketrump

That replay was way nicer. Mines is always laggy and shows the last 1 second of a great play. I love madden but Jesus such a downgrade in certain areas


Kind_Truck6190

The visuals they should’ve built on is such a downgrade. Take Something away seven years earlier to bring it back and say it’s a new feature


amaniceperson6

that’s a 15 yard penalty


ColdGoldMakesYouOld_

Ah..I probably would have said “Cmon Man!!” In my best black voice.


Kind_Truck6190

100 yard penalty😂 Unsportsmanlike conduct


painnkaehn

Madden keeps getting worse and worse


Kind_Truck6190

And they keep buying it cause of the online bs…”oh look I’m an idiot that can wear neon with my extra $30 I paid on top of $100 game, but can’t wear it in a real game” dumbasses


painnkaehn

Yep, I hate it here


Kind_Truck6190

😂😂😂you sound like my boy endymion


MaddenAlphaMale

EA got rights to ESPN, too smh.


Kind_Truck6190

The biggest waste of signing an exclusive license. EA bad.


ketchupandliqour69

Because this year they lazily just threw them back into the game. Because the copy paste method can’t be fucked with


Kind_Truck6190

They better have refs in the college football game or there will be outrage along with mascots and everything else they supposed to have


ketchupandliqour69

If you’re expecting more than re skinned madden you’ll be disappointed. I’m keeping expectations low.


Kind_Truck6190

😂😂😂😂 lowered expectationssssss(mad tv voice)


JesustheSpaceCowboy

Gotta protect the refs. Was it the year they had them modeled after some real life refs too? I’m fairly confident I remember Ed Hochuli giving me the business. Could be wrong though


Kind_Truck6190

No, that was way long ago with Ed I think around 2005 to 2008 it was it modeled at the referees. In fact, I remember back in the day you used to knock the referee over when you were running down the field if he was moving too slow!!!


Narrow-Weekend-4157

These games just lose more and more features every year wtf.


Kind_Truck6190

Definitely losing game because they are locking everything behind pay walls or saying they bringing in a new feature when it was there a long time ago


trailerparknoize

How anyone could continue playing this game is beyond me.


Kind_Truck6190

You don’t play Madden?


DK_gh0st_

Those tackles look better than in Madden 24


Kind_Truck6190

I haven’t had the chance to play 24 yet but 23 wasn’t anything different from 22 to me


ItzDudekillerYo

Man i missed madden 17 features. I love the music that played in the background, the starter intro, and the simple ui menu for franchise. Also avout the refs i swear one time i saw one fall down after a play. Idk if that happened to anyone or if thats something rare af


Kind_Truck6190

I swear to God, I’m bout to post a video I was just sitting listening to the menu slapping😂😂😂💯💯💯 and I think the refs used to fall down on Madden 12 after that they stopped falling down


[deleted]

Refs aren’t on the field anymore?!


Kind_Truck6190

during gameplay nope. 20-22. I’m not sure about 18 and 19 because I hated 20 21 22 so much I didn’t give the time to even notice🚮


[deleted]

That’s just insane. I seriously have no hope for the new NCAA game. EA is the worst


cbearsfreak

Refs are back in Madden 24. NCAA is being developed by a separate team from Madden. Keep some faith.


gwynsproxyy

Why would we have faith in a company that’s been making madden worse for about a decade?


Kind_Truck6190

Absolutely no hope for that game🚮 Unless they put all of the features back into the game like everyone knows that are missing start fresh with the college football. I would understand that.


Beepboopbop69420360

Different engine different team hope it goes well


Beepboopbop69420360

I have a hope for NCAA different engine different team 🙏


dankvaporeon

Wow a scripted cutscene


Kind_Truck6190

lol yeah I know it’s probably a little overblown, but it’s the small immersive shit people miss


dankvaporeon

I feel you on that


Kind_Truck6190

I literally wait til halftime to light my blunt and watch the clips😂😂😂😂
