Joe Alread wants you to know about Madden Ultimate Team.

Alread, an Associate Producer for Madden, is behind the creation of new assets for the mode and keeping it up to date with what you are seeing in the real to life National Football League.

“When a player has a good week, you see that in our mode when we release new card packs,” Alread said about Madden Ultimate Team.

The mode, which saw 90% jump in revenue this past year over the prior year, has begun to assert itself as one of the main modes which gamers turn to when they think of Madden. Following on the success of FIFA Ultimate Team, which has become a cash cow for EA, the company has literally saw lightning strike twice now with the success of the mode in Madden NFL.

Such a coincidence that this comes the year that Manziel gets drafted....

EA will put Johnny in 1 in 3,000 packs and people will buy so many trying to get him.

Actually is very smart way to boost sales for that game they make.

Completely emulated all pro football...EA is never original

Enough wit the All pro football. This is PS4 its all original. Who isn t original is APF. And there was no fantasy league. Just HOF and old players.

Its time to let go. Enough information is out that proves any dev can produce a sports title without a league license. With that said, creativity and originality is out the door here, all they need to do is make another game that's customizable; and supported via DLC to stay current. Enough assuming people won't buy because its not licensed. That's like saying short QB's aren't worth selecting. Its been proven wrong! EA is not perfect. Or realistic by a long shot in producing football or basketball games, but they at least produce them. They show up to work, win or lose. Cannot say that about the others. Matter of fact they hear all of the fan reliving the old times and have yet to give the people what they want. So doesn't that make them more about money? They're not willing to appease the fans when they are regarded as the best Sim producing company. Call a spade a spade and deal with the fact our gaming future looks very weak.

There's no NFL without college football. There's no draft with out college entries, etc. But madden has done it, giving us generic players with no customization or draft editors like in 2k basketball. Its bull. Then players need to be signed before they can play in the game, and its only for ultimate team. In order to use.them all you need to buy the next copy and wait till its release. Its bull. We should be able to edit the draft rosters and share them for times like this to make the game last longer. Why do we need to resort to ultimate team?

So EA is capitalizing off of their monopoly. And the peoples champ is hibernating. Same goes in CBB and we don't set up the future for change by accepting all of this nonsense. People need to stand up and so no! That's not acceptable. Or say nothing at all.

Is there a way to integrate players from Ultimate Team packs into your offline franchise as draftees or free agents?
