Madden NFL 16 Community Wishlist

Madden 16 is still a long way off but turning ideas into reality takes a long time.  That is why we are launching our Madden 16 wishlist early this year so if the EA Sports team likes your idea, they will have a real chance of implementing it.

Whether you want to see improvements made to specific game modes, if you have an idea for Madden 16 Ultimate Team, or if you’d like to see a feature added to franchise mode, leave us a comment!

Community feedback is something that the best video games have.  We all want Madden NFL 16 to be a great game so now is the time talk about what you’d like to see in it.

Please keep it classy.  The ideas that get heard are the ones that are well thought out and respectful.  Simply hating on Madden 15 doesn’t do anyone any good.  Discuss what you didn’t like about Madden 15 and how you’d like to see it improved in Madden 16.  Leave a comment below!

Overall game play was pretty good but there is a few things i would like to see!
#1) There needs to be a coaching tree of some sort Assistant coaches maybe a few positional coaches give us the chance to start out as maybe a QB coach and work our up or maybe a DL coach I think it would some fun to the game!
#2) Every DL does not have the dunlap disease come on fix this the players need too look a football player not a bunch of beer drinkers with a gut!
#3) Revamp the whole scouting and draft idea this needs to be a huge part of the game I would like to see maybe selecting 2-5 players bring them in ask questions maybe a personal workout something just needs more excitement in this in area i think!
#4) This is a big one DB’s should not be lost all over the field like they are they need to rework the DB awareness somehow DB’s have to be smarter in Madden 16
#5) Need more player choices on the player edits I like have a neck rolls bull collar covered or un covered knee braces just make it more user friendly we are the ones playing the game we should be able to make the players look as we want them too!
#6) Sideline activity maybe a bike a kicking net coaches coaching players fans just beef up this area needs to feel like a real football game

i feel as if you guys do a little adjustment to whatever feature everyone says they like but dont really focus on the game. like this past year the opening scene shows ron rivera talking with cam newton about the play there gonna run. and sherman hypeing up his teammate why not implement that is cfm or even superstar mode. now im not saying you be able to hear opposing coach and qb ideas but the team you have selected also show them calling the play in the huddle. also a feature that you had in college football that i loved and would love to see implemented into madden this upcoming year is screen shake and wr routes shaky when the noise in the stadium got loud make it difficut to call audibules an force qbs to take timeouts like at Arrowhead aka the loudest stadium in the nfl make it hard for a rookie qb to hear plays being called in and get the ballsnapped when the fans get into the game. i can personally remember it being so loud i could barely hear the person next to me two years ago when i was at the chiefs vs raiders game for my bday so i know it was impossible to make changes to plays. also when you hype up the crowd show it in the stands and in the volume of the game i cant tell you how annoy it is to hype the crowd up and peyton is calling an audible and none of his receiver move in towards him to try and hear the call they just stand there like its silent and they are like ok cool you need me to change to a slant route or a fly. Also when you call a timeout to freeze the kicker make that really affect kickers i know there were times i called timeouts aginst a kicker who struggles and then i call timeout and he nails its right down the middle. also with the titontrons show actual plays on it and replays rather then the teams name the whole game please tell me what nfl game you have gone to and the whole game they just strickly had the teams name on the titantron and never showed a reply go ahead i will wait…….. exactly none. also at halftime have a halftime show with some highlights from around the league and even during a game show a highlight off something that happen just moments ago like in real life. also have more commontators who are on the field before the game talking about the game andthe latest status on if a injured player will be playing or if there a game time decision. Another thing i would like to see is more celebrations rather then the same 4 or 5 generic td celebrations like when i hand off to jamal charles and he scores he doesnt spike the ball or flip the ball like LT did he does the wipe me down and celebrates with is offensive line and wrs show more group celebrations also have tom brady streak down the field after passing a td and doing the head butt he does to his team mates. have fans interacting with players espically after a td when have you ever seen an opposing fan cheer because lets say latavius murry ran for 80 yrds at arrowhead and KC fans are happy about it show them booing him and so on have fans with signs in the crowd make it feel more realistic. another is more interaction with the blocking and dbs getting beat and holding on or grabbing the wr who got by them. one feature i think would be cool is showing the coach working the sideline and having more emotion on bad calls and working the ref like in real life. i would also like you to bring back the coordinators its so annoy that if i fire my head coach i have the choice of a bunch of made up name coaches rather then possibly promoting my offensive or defensive coordinator like in real life. also flags for late hits i cant tell you how many times im five yards out of bounce get hit and nothing but the cup is bearly on sideline might of stepped down on the line as i hit them and bam 15 yrd penalty for unnecessary roughness. more control over the stadium remodeling or location rather then i choose dome stadium or futuristic stadium and have astro turf and big press boxes i liked the option of choosing grass or turf how press boxes were assembled along with titan trons lighting. another cool feature that i think you guys are fully capable of doing is mock drafts from week to week closer to the draft, draft boards change based on what the team did in free agency, also bring back the news papers or do twitter feeds about teams and players hurt position battles. have the options to suspend players for violating team rules. during free agency more details on players that you may potentially look at for your team like josh gordon you know hes got a history of suspensions or McFadden injury prone or some possible red flags that might make you not want to sign them. also more stories about future draft prospects like joe smith has some major off field issues or tom lang is on the rise after recent combine or pro day. last one when a player gets injured have the teams training staff come on to the field to check on them and help them off the field or cart them off the field if they hurt there knee or tear there acl or mcl you wont see them limping off the field if they tore those or same with achilles injuries. more in depth reports on the injury show the training staff working on the injured player rather then them just sitting on the bench laughing and carrying on with there teammates. if its a major injury show the two teams coming together to pray that there ok and team mates wishing them the best as there being carted off the field if its a bad injury and there being carted off show them give the fans a thumbs up. please bring back the entrances and stadium music i know its small but it made the game feel more realistic. thanks in advance and hope some of these are put in the upcoming game or future games.

The relocation teams simply put SUCKED!!! I don’t mind the names so much but EA should allow for some creativity from the gamers. Allow the gamers to create the color scheme and uniform combinations. Allow an alternate uniform. I repeat allow the gamers to be creative with the relocation, like previous editions of this title ie. (Madden 7) I kow that I am pissing in the wind but I know I would appreciate it if the were to happen for Madden 16.

I would like to practice with my team from Connected Franchise Mode. A lot of attention was applied to the defensive side of the ball on M15 hope that is done on M16. Taller cbs, fs and ss in rookie drafts to compete with the abundance of 6’5 & 6’6 rookie wrs.

Physical attributes drop off too much in CFM. Multiple players speed dropped down to the low 60s or even the 50s. That seems unrealistic. I expect they wouldn’t drop that far or if they did they would retire first. WR and DB specifically should probably flatten out their regression at about 80% of their max or just retire.

Scouting could be a little more realistic. Specifically it costs a large percent of the points just to get speed and strength and Acc and jump… All numbers that the players openly display at the combine. Maybe their cost could be cheaper or just available and you would have to research the other attributes. Some players at the top and bottom of the draft might not go to the combine and you’d have to pay for them or pay more.

Practice with CFM team and/or export team so we can play with our team against other humans outside of the scheduled games. Either in the CFM as a ‘scrimmage’ or outside.

Thanks for all the effort y’all put into madden.

Couple things. More depth chart and p’s roster. Should be able to have players move to any position. Also depth charts for separate packages instead of just the pre snap subs. Would like more as asst. coaches and maybe the better position coaches the more game prep points at said position have some connection to each other. Would enjoy cpu vs cpu games as well

Im a heavy madden player I play CFM the majority of my time. These are the things I would like to see improved in CFM. First off get rid of the X tackle a player morphing 3-5 yards to make a tackle is un realistic.

Bring back player attributes in off season FA. Not knowing what the player attributes are unrealistic as well. Its like a guessing game.

Can we not have player attributes take such a huge drop in one season. Pierre Garcon went from a 93 spd to a 76 spd in one season totally unrealistic. if a player is going to fall off make it more gradual.

Can we make player progression more gradual too. in one league I had a rookie running back with a 90 spd and 90 accel. In 2 season he is now a 99 spd 99 accel and 99 trucking. So in 2 seasons he went from running a 4.6 40 his rookie year to running a 4.2 40 his 2nd year in the league…….that just doesn’t happen. Some attributes like awareness and play recognition would increase faster than a players speed will. But yet you can increase speed just as easily as awareness.

Get rid of chew clock too or make it available just in the last 2 min of the 2nd and 4th quarters. Players using chew clock the whole game is ridiculous

I know we want the WR to catch the ball but Ive seen more 1 handed Odell Beckham Jr catches in 1 game than the whole NFL season has had the last 3 seasons.

Bring back the start a game over at a certain point feature. I know playing CFM sometimes the games cuts off for whatever reason (excessive grieving, network timeout) it would be nice to be able to go back to that particular point in the game without having to start over and play down to that point.

Practice squads for CFM would be greatly appreciated as well.

Bring back scrimmaging to gain XP points
