Nike Color Rush Uniforms Coming Soon For Madden NFL 17

Having the game default to a white vs white match-up (say, the Cowboys against the Bengals in a color rush game) would be awful UX, especially if that weren't properly and immediately communicated in the front-end prior to a user vs CPU game (as far as I know, we still can't directly change the CPU jerseys in Franchise). On the other hand, if every team is getting a while and color Color Rush jersey, then all bets are off. I haven't yet seen a colored variant for a couple teams, however (ex. Dallas only has white). Very happy to get the color rush unis in the game in any capacity, however.

The weird thing about that is the Texans/Patriots game is a color rush game yet their unis are practically identical. Might just be poor planning by the NFL but you'd think they would've recognised early on the issues that would cause.

Really need to have a visual representation of the uniform's both teams are using in CFM (especially vs CPU). The amount of times where I've had the Titans face off against say someone like the Chiefs who use their AFL throwback while I have selected my regular road uni - and then invariably don't select it when I load back into the game with my AFL uni selected.

Some the jerseys look sick, I actually like the Patriots color rush better than their actual one. It looks both simple and classic. Some of them are absolutely hideous like the Seahawks that looks like a highlighter exploded. But overall I like them. This will open the door to a lot of teams I wouldn't use in Franchise because of uniforms.

The Texans beat writers all tweeted they are going to wear the white unis for that game. But your right that is something that should have been taken into account.

FYI, You can assign them to the CPU with a second controller.

They are not tied to a roster, dev on twitter confirmed that we do not need to restart CFM to use them when they release them.

While I hate the Color Rush uniforms and the idea of them, I am happy Madden is going to add them to help refect what we see in real life. Now if only they would actually allow me select both teams uniforms when I'm playing franchise like pretty much every other sports game allows I'd be happy.

Point 1. Great to have them in. Good job by EA on this.

Point 2. What is being done for CFM? Are they being automatically assigned? Probably not for the reasons CM correctly pointed out. So color rush games cannot be played in franchise mode? That would be disappointing. (please save any responses that requires me to purchase additional hardware to chose uniforms)
