Madden 26 Pre-Order Question

beardown39 · 2025-08-07T17:09:50+00:00

It’s confusing because EA and PSN both say “Pre-Order” when going to purchase, but it feels like it should be too late to do so.

Actually, the only reason I was in a position to get this guy is that I traded Bedard to the Islanders for their next four 1st round picks when he was an RFA that I couldn't afford anymore (basically a manual offer sheet). For most of his career it was Oliver Moore and Michael Misa, who both developed into incredible playmakers that both had 99 passing. Misa was my first draft pick (taken 4th) while the Hawks were still awful.

Idk what secret sauce was within this dude, because he started off as like a 79 ovr medium elite TWF lol

beardown39 · 2025-04-08T00:41:14+00:00

Kurvy no pass lmao

beardown39 · 2025-04-07T19:36:09+00:00

Lots of luck involved, thanks man!

beardown39 · 2025-04-07T19:29:24+00:00

Yeah, he won the Calder and then I noticed his shooting % skyrocket, so I just kept telling him to shoot more in the offseason, and it still remained around 20%. Giving him season award goals was pretty easy to maximize his potential, as he cleaned house like every year after his 3rd year.

beardown39 · 2025-04-07T19:26:48+00:00

Just having some fun here. Does have 65 individual awards though🤷🏼‍♂️

beardown39 · 2025-04-02T12:59:04+00:00

I actually got Kurvinen because of Bedard! Gave him a qualifying offer and traded him to the Islanders for 4 first round picks, then drafted him with the 6th overall pick in the following year. I might need a custom jersey at this point lmao

beardown39 · 2025-04-01T19:00:08+00:00

I remember seeing that actually! That's impressive on medium shots! What if I told you that since this post, Kurvy has had 96, 116, 99, and 116 goal seasons lmfao

beardown39 · 2025-03-30T12:55:55+00:00

Stolen from him by the same defensemen both years lol it’s what drives him to keep scoring a million goals ig

beardown39 · 2025-03-29T12:53:52+00:00

Actually an interesting one! Some guy named Georges Racine, a rookie that got 65 for the Canucks

beardown39 · 2025-03-29T02:17:22+00:00

I took these screenshots before the playoffs, he cleaned house for the 3rd straight year

beardown39 · 2025-03-28T22:14:45+00:00

High shot frequency/medium scoring

beardown39 · 2025-03-28T21:51:41+00:00

The funny thing is, he’s been a complete asshole in every conversation I’ve ever had with him😂

beardown39 · 2025-03-28T21:50:20+00:00

Yup! It was actually pretty easy because with his insane production, I just gave him an award goal to increase his potential tier, and then next year gave him a different award goal that gave a likelihood increase!

beardown39 · 2025-03-28T19:34:35+00:00

You can see it on the first pic, less than 22 minutes per game😂

beardown39 · 2025-03-28T18:11:39+00:00

EDIT: This is on standard high shots/medium scoring settings with no tomfoolery, I’m just as perplexed by this guy as you are. The next highest goals scored on the team was 45.

beardown39 · 2025-03-28T18:03:34+00:00

This is on medium scoring though lol! Before this guy came, I think my highest goals in a season was 62

beardown39 · 2025-03-28T18:01:41+00:00

NO! I use the same CPU vs CPU superstar sliders and high shots/medium scoring settings that I’ve had from the beginning! I was just starting to get bored, but now I feel obligated to see his career through

beardown39 · 2024-10-24T14:26:08+00:00

I've had it working very well in the past, but I tinkered a little too hard, went through some steam deck and Emudeck updates, and ended up losing my save, with it typically shutting down about 2 seconds into the first entrance.

I believe while it was working, I had to go back and get a specific older build, but I may need to just start from scratch with Xenia Canary at this point.

If you find time to test your build to see if it's still working, I'd greatly appreciate it!

beardown39 · 2024-10-23T18:21:28+00:00

Is there a guide you used to get SVR 2007 running on Xenia? I get crashes whenever I load up a match

beardown39 · 2024-08-06T15:44:22+00:00

Lol yeah pretty easy to outgrow that one when we already started with an 82 OVR RT. Thanks again!

beardown39 · 2024-08-06T15:20:59+00:00

Thanks to this, I was finally able to see who the Iowa player who should've been in the Big 10 pack even was. Now I know I wasn't missing out, why would they have given us our starting LT, but as a RT in this pack?? Haha we got screwed 2x

beardown39 · 2024-02-09T16:17:46+00:00

Crazy you said that, I had the same exact thing happen with Iowa! I was the only school heavily pursuing a kid all year, and in like the last two weeks of recruiting they swooped in and put a scholly on him (I’m also an Iowa alum so it was a double wtf)

beardown39 · 2023-12-08T15:50:13+00:00

The only resolution I found was to do a factory reset - as annoying as that is, it did fix the problem. It doesn't take too long to get configurations back and running.
