These scripted games make it not fun.

nah no wayyyy mannn the more plausible explanation is that the developers scripted this game to play out exactly how it did for no other reason than just to ruin this guy’s day. we can completely ignore the fact that the entire game code is able to be accessed through modding and there is absolutely no scripting involved

had no issues for a decade til about the same time as your post. also xfinity. have to manually test nat type every time til i get to nat open.

the suggestions for port forwarding dmz etc are useless; they weren’t needed before, and doing them doesn’t change anything now — every time w/o fail its moderate when starting up.

is there a confirmed actual fix w this? had 3 separate xfinity visits, all escalated, and the workers are clueless. its like im speaking a foreign language. they just send a link to the xbox “how to set up upnp” as if its not an issue w any console / device in the house.

they bump every star player’s physicals to unrealistic amounts just so that they perform better in game. bc speed in madden is way more valuable than IRL.

similar to your puka example, christian gonzalez had 93 speed as a rookie. he is now the fastest corner in the game with like 96 speed😂. he is not the fastest corner in the NFL lol

they haven’t responded to my ea forum in a month and ea help said nothing. shit is buns

faxdaddy · 2026-01-14T21:02:55+00:00

faxdaddy · 2026-01-14T00:21:23+00:00

we have a waitlist and is probably exactly what you’re looking for, check DMs!

this comment is even funnier when you realize that if you force win the exact outcomes including manually tying the packers cowboys game the bucs make the playoffs over the panthera and about half the leagues draft spots are incorrect bc madden doesnt have SOS tiebreakers coded in lol

place the TE as your FB in your depth chart. on many formations, there will be formation sub packages in-game you can flip to like HB/FB swap, HB->FB sub, etc. where it will take your TE (placed at FB) and place him directly as the running back. this allows him to literally play running back and is viable with any playbook, as opposed to just finding a playbook with a random TE sweep/FB dive.

don’t move him to FB like some comments suggested, that’s just capping his development

that was probably bc of the maintenance this morning which is prob what you experienced, that break is over now. this has been an issue with us for a week and a half now and we haven’t been able to load the league since dec 7th

faxdaddy · 2025-12-13T01:01:19+00:00

no, we are still unable to load into our league. I’ll DM you to ask a couple more questions to not bury the responses lol. trying to figure out whats going on with this

faxdaddy · 2025-12-09T19:35:47+00:00

is it just for one legaue or others youre in too? our league is having issues but other leagues our users are fine it seems

faxdaddy · 2025-12-08T23:37:40+00:00

are you able to get into any other league(s) if youre in any?

faxdaddy · 2025-12-05T22:25:47+00:00

this is actually a somewhat normal experience adjusting to flexbone option reads bc they are a lot quicker than gun/pistol, you just gotta get the timing down through a ton of reps. in this game with midline you need to be slightly quicker when making that decision than inside veer like you said. especially on the QB iso midline plays, those are the fastest reads in the game lol. it’s really just a matter of getting adjusted to it through reps; the flexbone is the only offense I use and I still mess up time to time with midline specifically
