Madden NFL 15's Ultimate Team is getting an overhaul in how lineups are handled and displayed. From what we're seeing, the changes this year are all towards the positive end of things, let's take a look.
New Lineup Screen
Just about everything has been redone, with every position now available to see seen on one screen. The depth chart is on the screen, which allows you to see your whole squad in one location.
Contracts Are Currency
Contracts are now a currency within Ultimate Team. The practical way this works is that you open up card packs and get more contract currency (or you can buy more). From here, you can add a point to any player and that adds an extra game to their contract. It's a simpler way to do things for sure.
Player Options
You will have two options for taking players out of your lineups. You can remove players from their currently selected position, which takes them out of their current lineup slot you have selected. Conversely, if you want to completely remove a player from all positions, you simply choose 'remove from lineup.'
Players not in your lineup which you own can be found in your item binder.
Lineup Tools
You can change your team's style and manage multiple lineups within the lineup tools feature. Perhaps the coolest feature is the 'best lineup' feature. You can build a lineup that suits the challenge you are trying to complete -- so if you need to complete short passes, you can choose to automically fill out your lineup to optimize for the best short pass game lineup.
You can read more about these features on EA Sports' official Madden NFL 15 website. What do you think of the new roster management options in Madden NFL 15 Ultimate Team?
