Deeper Superstar mode

Superstar is my favorite mode but it seems lacking. I just want a superstar mode that doesnt get boring after one season because of its dull repetition
its been the same thing since 06 (minus the apartment and the parent combo thing)
just make something creative for the practices (or make it so that u dont have to go thru a loadin screen between practices)
And if you could put your superstar on the offline roster and export it like the useless NCAA draft class option that nobody uses.

and PLEASE, MAKE SOME NEW THINGS TO DO IN THE AGENT OFFICE
all you can do in there is sabotage our career in there

Stuff to bring back

Me and my bro cant play more than one full offline football game because they are long and draining
but mini-camp is the only thing that never gets old
all i want is the Mini Camp from '06 back where u do Coffin Corner Punts and Swatting the balls from stationary targets and Catching drills and Field goals that got harder and harder

why did you guys get rid of those fun drills and replace them with the bench press??? WHY???
the old drills would make superstar mode bearable

And remember the mini-camp mode on madden 06? with the kicking and the punting?

finallymadden cards, madden cards madden cards
BRING EM BACK, it made it funner for longer
taking those out, took out the arcade feel out of madden and it never came back
madden now is like a simulation racing game compared to old madden which was like need for speed underground 1

As for Superstar mode, I feel it's been getting less and less features within it since it was introduced. IMHO it was actually better when it was first implemented, and more realistic too. I prefer but for the wrong reasons the pick your own skill thing, in Madden 10, however I do like the whole idea of earning the skills, and if done right, a better rookie could of been made via this. I also don't like how you can't even pick an agent this year when it first started (and the year after it) you had alot of diffrent things to do.

As for my "more realistic" comment. If I remember, back when Superstar started, the team you played for depth chart was orginised by attributes, which meant if your player wasn't good enough, he didn't start. I prefered this however some may not. I also prefered the option in Superstar where you could watch a game, when your player wasn't on (i.e. when you play a CB and your team is on offense, you just sit back and watched).

The latter point brings me to the pluses.

Firstly, since I got the 360 version of the games, I couldn't pick 2 random teams and watch the teams go at it. This seems to have returned in Madden 10

I didn't enjoy Madden 09 as I thought the passing game was just an interception fest when against the AI. I didn't even know if I wanted Madden 10 cause of it. However you won me over again asI feel the interception fest is gone here, and it's more fun due to it.

Finally, I agree with qtipps bring back section

All on all, Good job, the game will keep me entertained for a while.

Please bear in mind, I've lightly touched superstar mode and only played one quick game.

Love the game... just a small bone to pick..... well more like a question... will you be fixing the rosters or what??? You didn't put the Jags trade of Northcut in and my boy Brock Bolen is completely absent from the game and he's a signed player for jacksonville. Just want to let you all know and see what's goin to happen

There's just a few thing's i've noticed or would like to see. Don't want to write a big long rambling message.

I've got the uk version for the PS3, and there has been a big mess with the online code not being included. I'm still waiting to get this sorted out. Such a mistake can't happen again.

Also with the UK release, i've been reading that we have less options than the US release. Which doesn't seem fair or sensible. Surely it would take more work for you guys to create two versions of a game for the same platform. I know that the NCAA 10 hasn't been released here, but as PS3's are region free. There are ways for us to get our hands on them. And using the draft feature on this is something I would pay to do.

Speaking of which, I think that all of the extra features that we have to download, should just be included in the game. I'd rather pay an extra £10 (game costs £40) to get all these features. Ok they might not have been ready for release. But downloading these will eat into my usage allowance.

Being able to play as the lead blocker, is a function on madden 9 for psp. Would be good on ps3. as would creating a play.

Is the international game (wembley stadium) included anywhere. I'm sure that could easily be copied from FIFA.

It would also be good to get to invite the rookies to training, or to see them at the combine somehow as well. Along with some news about top prospects, in the total access show.

And when signing free agents or scouting the draft. A reference to the players on your roster to compare against, with there rating and contract years would be good.

Keep up the good work!!

replays after touchdowns please and the option to challenge a call on the field. thank you

add a couple of sideline catches...

see old cris carter highlights for examples..

and add a few variations...there should definitely be ...a "drag-the-second-foot" sideline catch animation...

and a "dot-the-i" animation...

and the santonio holmes catch animation ..the one he made to win the super bowl..for pittsburgh...

and we need better WR/DB interaction....DB's don't turn their back to the receiver and run..when they are still in front of the WR...and they don't make a cut before the WR does...

add a strafe animation..for when DB's are trying to knock the ball out of a receiver's hands ..as the receiver is trying to make the catch...similar to Rodney Harrison/David Tyree at the end of the NY Giants/NE Patriots Super Bowl...

and tweak the catch animation logic..sometimes the receiver catches the over the wrong shoulder...or makes the catch more difficult than it needs to be...

add a couple separate catch animations for slants and post patterns...

and the ball is rotating the wrong way...on the PS3 version..when somebody throws it...

if possible don't remove any features...that the fans like..if possible.. (i.e. these are the features no one is complaining about)

where do i go to see...who won the MVP and all of the season's awards from previous years..in franchise mode??

my only problem with the game is online franchise. no draft class,no trade logic,no real free agency,and a stupid timer that doesnt let you advance even if eveyone sets to ready. everything that makes running a franchise fun is gone online. you should just call it online season because after the first season the game is over. just because you call an apple an orange doesnt make it an orange. and this is not a franchise its a season. a bad season. i hope you can fix these problems, over all the game is amazing, just online franchise really bombed. and one more thing the new speed should be in online franchise too.

Pile-on should fall over when it's touched

Better DB/WR interaction















Notice how the DB..is trying to break up the pass..by knocking the ball out of the receivers hands..

i would like to see more animations like these in the game...where DB's and WR's go up and fight for the ball in the air...

But remember..that DB's have to either go for the tackle or the interception/deflection...not both..

and when the WR's in the middle of his route..the DB should not be turning his back to the WR...

Double Team Blocking...

Sideline Catches















These should also apply in the back of the end zone as well...

Receivers with high awareness ratings should be trying to get their feet down..in back of the end zone and on the sides of the end zone...

Slant Catch Animations

System: PS3

When in Franchise mode, selecting my audibles, the interface does not show which button the audible is being assigned to

Changing settings in Franchise should only apply to the Franchise and should not affect profile settings. i.e. If I want to create a custom menu music play list for my franchise, but not for the whole game, then I should be able to. Same goes for adjusting CPU sliders and other settings as well.

Offline Multiplayer/Multiteam franchise. (XBOX 360).

My roommate and I always start up a Franchise with two teams.

The problem in Madden '10 is having to play games in chronological order or be simulated. We both work, so we like to play on our own time. If we have a game up, we can play.

With the way it is now, whomever's game is up chronologically is forced to play.

Example: My game is a Monday Night Football game, my roommate's is on a Sunday. He's at work, I'm at home. I can't play my game because his will simulate.

A patch for this would be amazing. It's really my only complaint, but it almost destroys Offline Multiplayer Franchise. It's disturbingly annoying.
