That's just a generic picture. It does not depict the cover of madden by any means. Forget story mode , forget all the different modes. How about making a game that finally looks and plays like what's we see on Sunday. Update player models , lighting, player movement and AI. Realistic sidelines. Authentic introductions for every team. Ability to create and edit player equipment like NBA 2k. A true tv broadcast camera angle. A more dynamic passing game . Better half time presentation. More dynamic weather changes throughout the game. Not have every player for every position have the same stance and running motion.
Focus on the game first

I am just holding my breathe for a revamped franchise mode, better stat tracking, more customization, and of course custom draft classes (again).
100% agreement with this.

Just hoping to see something that makes me want to play this game. It just hasn't captured the essence of football for years.

Hopefully they are re-doing Franchise mode.
After playing NBA 2K, this game's franchise mode with everything combined is such a mess to me. It needs to be a separate mode from My player and they need to have options to customize things.

While I have no inside knowledge I'd say based on EA's track record its unlikely they will do much to franchise mode.

Last year was promoted as a "revamped" CFM mode and they typically do not focus on a single area in back to back years. I could be wrong and hope I am cause there are a lot of areas CFM could improve.

You have to be cautious with innovation when it comes to Madden. That could very well mean it will have features that have been in other sports games for years and usually its not done as well as it is in those other games. I have a feeling they are going to focus on a MyPlayer type mode before they get Franchise mode to where it needs to be.

Dynamic CPU AI for defense and offense, what I basically mean is that if you throw deep to fast receivers, not all time they will get the ball,because cpu corners keep up with them and etc

Dynamic AI should not mean CPU catch up speed and other comeback ratings boosts. If a CPU defender is slower than a WR then he should not be able to keep up. Roll your coverage over the top to help the corner. Make adjustments to your defensive schemes. If you get a speed matchup you should be able to exploit it if the defense goes cover zero. See Sean Smith v Brandon Cooks last year.

Anything, literally anything, that makes each game unique I would welcome. As it stands now, EVERY. GAME. PLAYS. THE. SAME. WAY. Make it a challenge to win 9 games with a rookie, or protect the passer against elite rushers, etc. Also ditch everything XP related, let me negotiate contracts when I want and with who I want. Dump the stupid Twitter feed. In game league updates (doesn't even have to be video).

I totally agree with the first half of your post but I hope they don't focus on my player in madden. It doesn't work well with the sport of football. No matter what position you choose, the player is only on the field half the game. If you choose wr you might get 8-10 targets tops. Basically qb is the only position where your involved on enough plays to make my player mode interesting.

This ( assuming it comes to fruition ) is what the series needs. Madden has made strides, obviously, and it's not the same game, but we play it the same way.

I said before that I'd be happy with major innovation in the passing game, running game, or on defense, but if I'd had to choose one phase, it would the passing game. How long have we been pressing the X button to throw to the x receiver ? It has to be at least 20 years.

There's no skill involved in passing game. Any success the user has is due to his decision making. There's no stick skill involved like there is in the running game. I want to be able to go into practice mode--with only the offense on the field--and experience the satisfaction of connecting with the receiver on a deep route simply because it isn't a given that I'm going to hit the receiver. I want to watch games on Youtube and not just be impressed with a player's passing offense, but also his ability as a passer period. I want the frustration of missing out on a sure TD not because of a random dice roll that caused my QB to make a bad throw, but because I overthrew, or under-threw, the receiver.
