EA's Aaron McCarty tells Digital Trends that MaddenNFL23 will have more unpredictability and variety than previous entries.
While EA’s Madden football games often top sales charts every year, those sales haven’t reflected quality. The critical consensus on the series has been on the decline in recent years, and Madden NFL 22 was riddled with bugs that hampered the experience. Thankfully, the developers are aware of Madden’s flaws and trying to improve its signature gameplay with Madden NFL 23.
“We looked at how we developed the game and scoured the internet, and actually got our QA department to, within our dev tools, log every complaint that we could find to track them,” McCarty explains. “Where possible, we’d go in and analyze that to figure out what the actual issue was that was causing someone to complain.
Sensible changes That desire to improve seems like it’ll be applied to gameplay as well. Core modes are getting improvements, and franchise mode will feature deeper drafting, scouting, and free agency options. Meanwhile, the narrative-driven Face of the Franchise mode now follows a player on a new team five years into his career and allows players to be a linebacker.
“We wanted to fix that feeling people get when it feels like they’re stuck in canned animations, and it feels like the outcome is predetermined,” McCarty says. “What they’re saying to us is that there’s a loss of control. With FieldSense’s branching animation technology, we’re about to break out of those canned animations this year. That gives us unpredictability and variety in the game that we’ve not had because it’s not all predetermined.
