Madden 15: Four Ways To Keep it Fresh

12:37 PM - February 23, 2015 by RaychelSnr

It's ~~difficult~~ beyond impossible to keep playing a game well after that sports season is over. Just the other night, I put Madden 15 in the PS4, excited to play it because it hasn't been touched since the Super Bowl.

After three and a half quarters of a 9-minute game, it was turned off.

The struggle is real. By the time hockey and basketball season are over, it'll be the dog days of summer in sports video game land.

But there's hope for Madden. There are ways to defeat the system and make it enjoyable up until August when you're standing in line at midnight waiting to get Madden 16.

Try doing a complete expansion team with these rule sets. Makes I it extremely real and challenging! Also have a complete player guide

Expansion Draft Rules
1. The team may select up to two players from each team with a maximum of 30 players.
2. If the selected team selects a player over 75 overall, they will forfeit there second pick from that team. If a team selects a player over 80 overall they will forfeit there second pick and that player will count as two players towards the 30-player maximum.

Expansion Draft Roster Filling
1. Teams our giving the rights to a player of the team they are replacing.
2. For the remaining positions, the free agent pool will be used.

You will have five picks in free agency.
If a players ovr exceeds 87. You will forfeit thee picks in the draft and your remaining picks cannot exceed a 72ovr
If a players ovr exceeds 83ovr. You will forfeit two picks in the draft and your remaining picks cannot exceed a 72ovr.

After the draft you will have 3-5mins to make two trades for players that do not exceed a 74ovr. These trades our to help find some hidden gems. I suggest this thread below.

This. I can't even recall the last time I finished a single season in a Madden game, much less multiple seasons.

I know this is about making M15' fresh, but oh well...Especially since I don't like MUT, Fantasy drafts, or the Gauntlet, and I pretty much just like to opine here and on the EA boards.

To keep Madden fresh, I whip out my PS2 (yes I kept mine), and slip in M06'. And remember how much fun it was to play an immersive NFL game.

Running a "real franchise" can be a lot of fun. Take over a struggling team, or one that is going over a major hump (Broncos post Manning) and take the team to Super Bowl Stardom. It's harder to do, and it requires more patience.
