Madden NFL 22 Franchise Mode New Features & Improvements

Five big franchise mode features coming to Madden 22, which have already committed to doing by EA Sports. 

Top 5 Madden NFL 22 Franchise Mode New Features

On EA's website, earlier this year that a lot of people have missed or overlooked typically EA Sports or game companies, in general, will never say what they're working on months in advance especially not a full year in advance but the backlash around Madden 21's franchise mode was so massive that they literally had to commit to doing these things a year in advance to put the fire out, here's what they said on their website earlier this year:

“For Madden NFL 22 it is still very early. We are at the very beginning of the planning and preproduction of next year's products. That said, we've been actively discussing some of the areas we'd like to focus on, stemming from your feedback and player engagement. Here are few of the areas, while not fully committed yet, we are exploring creatively."

Yes, they said they're not fully committed to it but they know if they don't deliver these things that they listed there's going to be even more backlash than they got in Madden 21, and there's no reason for them to bring that on themselves if they weren't sure that they could put these things in the game. So they've listed a bunch of things that we can expect from Madden 22 Franchise Mode, here we are going over the five biggest ones that will really push the mode forward, which are sorted out by famous Youtuber EricRayweather. 

1. Coaching & Staff Management

Now this one, in particular, has already been further confirmed when they put a video out about a month ago talking about the last franchise update for Madden 21, and behind the creative director, there was a screen with staff management on it from Madden 22. A lot of people say that EA did this on purpose because they wanted to throw that little Easter Egg in there to let you know that - the stuff they talked about earlier this year, it's really still coming. From the picture on the screen, you can see the full coaching and staff management behind the creative director on the monitor, we don't know how deep this feature goes or if it's going to be real-life coaches versus made up coaches, but we do know this feature is coming to Madden 22  Franchise Mode.  It has been said for a while that licensing all of the real-life coaches and trainers would be kind of a difficult task, so a lot of fans did say they prefer to have made-up coaches versus none at all. The big thing here is the coaching and staff management has to actually affect roster-building the progression of players and things like that. 

2. Scouting Overhall

Scouting improvements is another thing that EA listed on their website and this is the second biggest thing that's been requested aside from the coaching and staff management. If you've played Madden's franchise mode at all over the last decade, you know just how basic and bare bones the scouting is, you get a certain amount of scouting points each week that you can distribute between a decent amount of players and it gives you very basic information about what they might excel at and what round that they would likely be drafted in. Now what franchise players want is much more in-depth in this current system, EA knows that and that is why they're going to overhaul. 

3. Create A Team

We don't know if a full created team is coming back but we do know that they're adding a lot more to the game, in terms of creating teams and relocating teams. Now we do know the NFL had some involvement with creating a team and they didn't want current teams to be edited to change the colors up. In terms of creating brand new teams, we don't know if they truly took that away from EA or if EA just took it upon themselves to remove that completely. But we do know for Madden 22, this is an area of the game that they're looking to revamp and they did give some examples on their website, like saying "relocation and branding assets for franchise new uniforms names and logos to relocation options for more variety and depth and deeper careers". Now if you've played Madden 21's franchise mode lately, you know that the relocation options have not changed in at least 5-7 years. So at the very least if they're not bringing back a full-on created team, they are giving new relocation options new uniforms and logos and this is an area of the game that we think they could really improve a lot on and really extend the life of franchise mode.

4. Scenario Engine Enhancements

New scenario engine enhancements is another feature that could really extend the replayability of this mode if done right. You may remember in Madden 20, this was a brand new feature that they were hyping up for both face of the franchise and regular franchise mode, it was supposed to present you with a bunch of different scenarios that you would have to react to and it would change the course of your franchise. Maybe a player wanted more playing time or got frustrated and wanted to get traded, the whole idea around this feature was that it was supposed to make franchise more like a living world where real scenarios would pop up that you would have to react to.  The problem is much like everything else in the mode, it was very basic and bare bones and oftentimes just didn't make any sense at all. It very surprising that in Madden 21, they did not touch this feature at all because it was still a brand new feature that had such a life ahead of it they didn't even fully tap into it not even close. 

5. New Team Chemistry System

While this is the smaller of the five big features, we do think this is something that is needed in franchise mode. Currently chemistry and scheme fit doesn't really mean anything though it's been in the game. And as we all know, if it's not going to affect anything, it's just window dressing. If you can put a new team chemistry system in place that benefits you from drafting the right scheme fit players or the right players to fit the coaching staff. We think that would be a huge plus it would make better franchise owners more successful because they know how to put the right players together, if they have a player that doesn't fit and they move him for somebody that does they should be rewarded for that.

So here are the big features coming to the Madden 22 Franchise Modes, and do hope these new improvements will make the mode and even the new game better. More Madden 22 news and cheap Madden 22 Coins will be updated here on time, stay tuned!
