Madden NFL 10 Blog: Revamping How Injuries Work

[stux]

This is a great addition to Franchise Mode!

If everything works realistically I am very very happy about this.

Another question, Can players get several different injuries and keep playing?

Example:

I have a RB with a strained knee. He gets hit in the chest so hard that IRL he would break a rib. In M10 does he have both a strained knee and a broken rib or can you only allow one injury per player?

3. You are automatically prompted to let injured players play hurt (when applicable) or sub in the backup

I like that part, it's more realistic. It would be weird if the prompt popped up if your player broke his foot or something.

you could sub a guy in with a torn ACL and he could still play? wow

Is there going to be serious first-time injuries where there is no option to put the player in ie an ACL/MCL tear in one play or do they all "progress" from bad to worse?

I think Ian will keep that news until or a day or so before E3.
