the stockholm syndrome is actually real when it comes to ea and madden. i really didn’t wanna believe it, but the amount of people i’ve seen say “all he does is point out the negatives” “he does nothing but hate on the game” give ea all the minute praises you want but that doesn’t and will NEVER change the fact that ea is selling you a subpar product. it’s such a shame that sports gaming is in the spot that’s it in
Bro for the first time I seen a guy talking about Ryannoody because he gave honest review and feedback w no sugar coating of a sub par game. To a million dollar company stealing from us and they are backing the company like they don’t see what’s happening. But I’ve come to the conclusion that those guys never played football either
It’s true Reddit people are so dumb about it. They’re like it’s a good game I don’t know what you’re talking about then I give them reason it’s not and they jump all over you
Yeah its not ea itself it's the people the work on madden itself because the college football game is way way better than this garbage. And they keep updating the college football games gameplay to improve it
I got a bundle of old games for the hell of it not long ago and have been playing some Madden 15 to see the differences in the current product. I can safely say blocking has been an animation issue then and still persists now and it’s ridiculous that it’s been literally 10 years and there’s no signs of improvement whatsoever
All these years & EA still can't get Physics or Collision Detection right smh. Clipping in this game is atrocious yet again! Kills all immersion! Can't even bring myself to play it!
@@TheBrotherHoodSports I disagree. Madden 16 hands down respected Physics & Collision Detection the best. Even though it was super wonky, you didn't have all this player clipping going on.. Especially after tackles..

Every player on the field has no idea any other player is on that field until an animation triggers and tells that player that there's another person on the field and where they are and what to do now. They remain oblivious to any other players. The only thing simulated in this game is a football sim.
They get one of their 900 requests that they asked for and suck it up and call everyone haters. Finally add alternative announcers and now the series is saved. I can get sucked into animation while I listen to Greg Olsen's voice now. Great.
I wish cc and people would be honest and just say “it’s all I got man” 🤣 “ I play this cause life is hard and this isn’t” like just say yall can’t do anything else but play madden and spend on money on Madden I would definitely not hate it
It has been 14 years since i purchased a Madden game. Bought every release starting in 1999 now instead of anticipating August for a new installment i line up to hear Ryan and Angry Joe remind everyone that we have not had a Madden release in over 10 years. What a time to be alive.
They really need post-block animations and logic for lineman. It looks so bad when a lineman loses a block then just stands or looks at you, or is in the way not doing anything
"500 new animations" means absolutely nothing when you don't have branching path for those animations for different scenarios. A halfback shouldn't be getting pushed while still in a running animation because the game has no transition from running to blocking to shoved. This is BASIC game animation work.
this so called 500 new animations is not actually 500 brand new never before seen animations. they actually record around 20 new animations and depending on the circunstances each can do 20 more diferent scenarios and each of those can do more 30 or so scenarios so multipling those numers they get to 500. they dont record 500 new animations, they record like 5 days worth. and work months on those 5 days or 20 to 30 new animations to get to that 500 number.
>"can do 20 more different scenarios" I'm LOOKING at this video that proves this is not true. There is no branching for animation or scenario mapping. The game pulls an animation and plays it in its entirety before it can be interrupted. I work with game animations for a living. The only reason a character would be stuck in a running forward animation while being pushed is if the game has no "getting pushed" branch scenario. Maybe they DID build an animation for the scenario in question, but they sure as hell didn't map it to any scenario or animation interrupts to create branching paths. @@cristianoe10
This is the reason why in cfb 25 and madden 25 I made a improviser qb because you really only have 1 maybe 2 reads then you have to try to run for your life without using the speed button because that make the d line disengage quicker smh
EA pays the NFL for exclusive licensing rights. That's just a free money in the nfl's eyes. EA is probably paying the nfl 10x times the amount another game company would pay for licensing rights to make a game alongside Madden. They know it's not their product that people want, it's what their product represents. People just want to play football games that replicate what they enjoy watching on TV. No one cares who actually makes the product. If Ubisoft had exclusive licensing rights sales would be the same, the brokenness and lack of depth games would be the same and people would still complain that we need more than 1 company making simulation football games because we do. That's the only this type of game will improve is through competitive development.
@@aidanhamilton321 just because y’all say it’s not good don’t mean it’s not good. This is your opinions. If game was this bad believe me sales would not be this great. Majority love it
Ryan, on just two Madden videos I commented on, the NFL already removed their phone number from google's listing. WE ARE STARTING TO BE HEARD!!! People will call if they feel it can make a difference. Please share this with your viewers so we can make a difference. I listed their phone number ending in 2000 and now when I google the same phrase I did 2 days ago to get that number, that number isn't listed. If we the people bombard the NFL with our voices of displeasure, they will be forced to not give EA the license.
I had to restart my Franchise 10 times before it would let me have Tua play. It was crazy; it gave him a back injury 9 times, and he was out for 8 weeks. Finally on the 10th try he wasn't injured.
As someone in the business calling for firing of ground lvl code monkeys is a bit harsh. They're only making 30k or less a year and having to find work 3 to 4 times a year. All the decisions are made by suits. I heard they only hire for 6 weeks of work.
I definitely think it's time for EA to clean house or for someone to do it for them. This is the type of performance that would get you fired in most corporate jobs. I've seen it myself first hand.
The fact the they selling M25 for full price on PS4 when it’s a roster update. LITERALLY!!! And I still don’t think it’s enough quality games worth upgrading
I just want to remind everybody this is 2024 ps5 era. No clue how this trash is so bad. With all the technology we have the game should be damn near perfect by now.
I used to justify madden and ncaa due to hardware limitations, back in the ps2 era, theres no excuse for these games to have the same problems for pertnear 20 years.
For PC Players: M25 is a massive upgrade from M24 and M23, with the former being practically unplayable with button delay and extremely poor porting (the entire game is basically being processed by your CPU while the GPU remains untapped) On the other hand, all the points you made are valid and still present. I've only played 2 games so far and noticed several inconsistencies, bad-block coding, strange physics/collision detection. Notably, the new kickoff system seems pretty flawed in the game, there really is no winning for the kicking team beside hoping to put it on the 1 with a deep kick, otherwise it seems the receiving team is guaranteed 25-35 yard start- in addition to the kickoffs, squibs are really in a bad spot, where outside defenders will continue to run straight for at least 15 yards or so- causing them to miss tackles they would have otherwise been able to close up the field on.
If you can't Mod on PC,im not getting it. The only people that dont care about the Mods are the people on console My last Madden i purchased was in 2013,Megatron was on the cover, and he's been long retired. After 10 years of not playing Madden because of the constant conundrums,i finally purchased it because of the MODS. The MODS make the game a 100000000000 times better. If you haven't experienced it,then you have no idea.
Don't worry, bud. That day 1 patch where they fix nothing and use market speak to explain their patches (enhanced dynamic gameplay) is going to fix everything like it always does for these games.
As someone who was blindly putting faith for college football 25, I said to my self maximum footballs done for, now I’m looking back to them for a new game.
Ain’t gone fake Ryan I’m liking this one better than every one they released it feels different gang it’s better they tried and they did good this is definitely playable
Bro kind of a sidebar but I said that about COD also, shouldn't it be illegal to still sell a game knowing it has cheaters and flaws in the game..that's like going to a casino, knowing they are rigging but still operating with your money.
The one thing I hate about madden games is half the pass plays you’re dropping back 15 yards to pass. The pocket doesn’t matter at all and is non existent after 1 second so the normal and most effective way to pass is dropping back like 20 yards to compete a 5-10 yard pass. Would feel so much more realistic if they changed that and made it somewhat difficult
Appreciate your efforts,but unless you get actual NFL players joining you in this, nothing will change. So-called influences will promote game for money, followers, etc. YOU need big Names supporting you. Again, keep being you.
You can tell the reason the pursuit angles suck is the AI just pushes the players to run directly at the runner, which is why you get those pile ups as all of the players are coded to just go after the player with the ball and not even look at their surroundings. The coding is a joke and it is obvious the AI is not nearly as complicated EA would like you to believe.
Pursuit angles make no sense in cfb25 Guys will just run right by you they want to chase you instead of making a proper tackle. I could have Malachi starks or even a random bum from southern Mississippi and they'll do the same bullshit
Offensive line blocking in this game has sucked for years. It's always just a bunch of guys being sucked into a giant confusing mass of humanity. Running plays for the most part have to be run to the outside in order to work. Holes most times tend to close within fractions of a second and when you run to the inside you wind up running into your own guy a very high percentage of the time. What's even worse is when you're supposed to have a fullback blocking for you to spring open a run and once the play initiates your FB immediately runs off somewhere else leaving you to run on your own rather than running with you.
It’s honestly kinda funny how people call Madden 25 a CFB 25 Reskin when the whole plan all along was to make very similar games even made by the same dev team 💀. Both games are a waste of space.
i've learned to stop watching videos like this and just enjoying the game. Video games have come a loooooong way and people complain about stuff like this lmao
The O-Line is OBLIVIOUS. They don't double when the need to, get stuck on another animation, and terrible schemes. The HB counter doesn't work correctly.
If the nfl take the rights away, 2k makes a nfl football game forcing Madden to do better. If ea has to compete in madden they’ll look to make an nba game to counter losses forcing 2k to make their nba game better. It’s all starts with the nfl ! I’m glad players like MHJ are starting to realize they are their own brand and need proper representation for their name. MHJ should make a public statement with his lawyer about EAs depictions of him in madden 25
You get better actual football action out of those old school, electric, table top football games. The ones where the guys were on little stands and the field table would vibrate to make the players move. There were selectors on the stands of the players so you could dictate which way they were supposed to move.
I want to know where the halfback decided he was going as the QB is getting sacked. Now he gets out of the way?? Must be heading to the sidelines to ask coach to get Clint off the field!
Everything you said in this video absolutely couldn't have been said any better. Thank you all for realizing what I realized over 10 years ago after buying my last new Madden game. These youngins really believe they're playing but in fact they're the ones getting played.
My funniest play was a 3rd and 8. The defense was in pass defense. The defenders chased the receivers downfield. The qb went outside the pocket and scrambled to the right. There was 20 yds of empty field between him and the nearest defender. Instead of running for a first down easily, he threw the ball out of bounds. Go figure.

i've learned to stop watching videos like this and just enjoying the game. Video games have come a loooooong way and people complain about stuff like this lmao
Feels like running in quicksand. They gotta patch up the speed and tackling. The tackling is sooo clunky though online
Remember when madden actually showed gameplay on the jumbotrons and not some endless loop of the team name/logo?
only thing the HB knew was that he was running a route! also everyone Clint now lol
The O-Line is OBLIVIOUS. They don't double when the need to, get stuck on another animation, and terrible schemes. The HB counter doesn't work correctly.
At this point I'm just convinced that only kids are defending this game and being brainwashed by TH-camrs that praises it
omg i rolled laghing so hard when clint was the one that got the first hit! LOL
Lowest possible effort for maximum proft. An equation as old as time. "BUT LOOK AT THE NEW MENUS!"
I don't even play madden but thank you for holding these people accountable.
If the nfl take the rights away, 2k makes a nfl football game forcing Madden to do better. If ea has to compete in madden they’ll look to make an nba game to counter losses forcing 2k to make their nba game better. It’s all starts with the nfl ! I’m glad players like MHJ are starting to realize they are their own brand and need proper representation for their name. MHJ should make a public statement with his lawyer about EAs depictions of him in madden 25
You get better actual football action out of those old school, electric, table top football games. The ones where the guys were on little stands and the field table would vibrate to make the players move. There were selectors on the stands of the players so you could dictate which way they were supposed to move.
I want to know where the halfback decided he was going as the QB is getting sacked. Now he gets out of the way?? Must be heading to the sidelines to ask coach to get Clint off the field!
Damn this is really really bad
the audacity of them to say they improved the D line is mind boggling
I don't like the idea of pushing a company to release its employees for something the upper management in the company is causing.
thats why i only ever do the free trial for 10hrs haha, and wait if these games eventually make it to gamepass
Everything you said in this video absolutely couldn't have been said any better. Thank you all for realizing what I realized over 10 years ago after buying my last new Madden game. These youngins really believe they're playing but in fact they're the ones getting played.
Last Madden/EA game I bought was Madden 15, and it was 2019 when I did that. The last great Madden/EA game was 2012.
We are going to look back on this and realize it was dark times
My funniest play was a 3rd and 8. The defense was in pass defense. The defenders chased the receivers downfield. The qb went outside the pocket and scrambled to the right. There was 20 yds of empty field between him and the nearest defender. Instead of running for a first down easily, he threw the ball out of bounds. Go figure.
Ryan you sure this is not football Simulator? With those ragdoll physics 😂😂
