Madden NFL 17 Developer Q&A Confirms Formation Subs Included in Day One Patch

Did they say if it was going to only be for stock playbook? I know they were struggling to get it to work with customs.

So we get formation subs on day 1?

WOW! I did not expect to hear that. I may have just gone from on the fence to buying it the first week. That's one of the biggest things to be added back in since it was removed years ago.

Formation subs are a big add. Must give credit for getting this in.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!! Praise His Name. This, combined with the ability to fully edit, does it for me. Two biggest things.

Pumped.

This makes the game immediately so much more immersive - agree?

Thanks for the info. Since I'm mostly an offline franchise mode geek, Madden 12 was my last purchase as I've felt EA took the game into a direction not geared to my liking. However, with improved game play, graphics that actually look next gen, player editing, custom playbooks and now formation subs back, I guess I got to pony up. lol... Hopefully next year the play calling screen will be addressed so we can set a game plan and have those plays pop up per situation assigned. That was one of the best features of M12. I understand they have a gameplan feature in this year, but I have not seen it show up on the play screen in any videos I've watched. Thanks again for info and link.
