• Game Informer: Madden NFL 17 Dev Q&A, Confirms Addition of Formation Subs

    Game Informer's Q&A with Madden NFL 17 developers Rex Dickson, John White, and Michael Hoag answered questions from the community.

    Perhaps the most noteworthy is the formal announcement of formation subs returning to the game (specifically Franchise Mode) in a day one patch.

      I have seen multi player celebrations after scores.

      Can't remember who the videos were from, there have been quite a few. I have seen them however

      Side notes: I figured the commentary would be better and looked forward to seeing what this new team did together. Know it allowed EA to record much more audio than before with Nantz/Simms. Record more often as well.

      Though it won't have any effect on me as unranked games don't have replays, it was cool to see the slowed down replay of the sack...identifying both players by overlay indicators

      Also like seeing what happened at the 3:41 mark. Not the result of the TD, but how the coverage was played. The Nickel matched the Slot WR on his Post even though the play call appeared to be Cover 3. This was much needed, can definitely see getting creative on Defense if it plays out as such
