Re: Franchise Mode Economy

What is the adjusted OVR? Through which tool? But no, this is vanilla.

Franchise Mode Economy

I've been playing Franchise Mode in Madden NFL 2008. I usually just control my own team. I sometimes have to use an editor to take control of another team and fix a roster issue, usually caused by injuries. Sometimes I'm too frustrated with a team's chronic mismanagement I have to directly intervene...

Re: What's everyones stance on the 2K vs EA debate?

The NFL's endorsed monopoly has allowed NFL video games to whither. The NFL was mad at NFL 2k at one point, for cutting their prices below what the NFL considered the minimum threshold to establish elite brand credibility. The NFL doesn't allow anything to exist with their brand that isn't marked up...

Re: Can player interests be adjusted?

Last night I took over a terrible franchise, the Falcons, who in Madden 2008 Franchise mode in the year 2013 had finished something like 1-15 nearly every year. I tried to resign their QB, who was going towards his second contract, and I had vast cap space. He would not re-sign with me at all, and I...

Re: What controller should I get?

I've found TexMod pretty easy to use for everything except stand alone stadium TPFs

Re: What controller should I get?

AFAIK the only way to fix the numbers to look like Letters is by changing the Graphics. There is some way to switch out those graphics. Personally I just roll with the numbers, it took a bit of time to learn though. I've read updating the graphics is nice if you have friends play with you. I use a L...

Re: Can the AI from NCAA games be used for Madden?

That bit about the player roles is very informative. Seems like potentially the easiest way to get the Computer to use players the way you think they should be used. As you assign roles, do you use Team Distraction or Underachiever?

Re: AI using over and under fronts

There's a lot of interesting things in your post, I appreciate it > When you come out of the offensive huddle with say 2TE's, Madden will match with a 46, 4-3 or 3-4 Over or Under set. This is particularly interesting to me because for example right now in my Franchise I have a well developed FB/TE ...

Re: Can the AI from NCAA games be used for Madden?

I didn't realize so much was going on with the play book, and especially situational football logic therein. I've also struggled to figure out what conservative vs aggressive did, and your answer really helped. It seems like the conservative vs aggressive metric as you described is trying to hone in...
