Cause I’m telling you why 2k is more popular. It’s more popular cause people like myplayer over madden mut or team up.

You guys be so out of touch brother. The youth is the main consumer and the youth like nba and 2k better.

Nothing to do with sim football brother or none of that. We just old nikkaz homie. The youth who has more time and plays the game way more like some shyt we not the biggest fan of, plus don’t care for the shyt we grew up on.

And the gameplay ain’t bad. Most of you nikkaz absolutely horrible with bad football iq also
u said nfl has a younger fanbase tho

madden dont have the sim community. They only have casuals. 2k has both that’s why it’s more popular. U don’t add a mode like
MyEra to cater to casuals. Madden don’t care about the sim community. If they did the franchise mode would not be in the state it’s been the last 10 years

@Ineedmoney504 such a lazy as talking point. I'm just fine playing all-madden, but I still know the gameplay isn't good, (namely with player movement, animations, AI) and there are objectively less features than from the ps2 era.
Nothing bout all madden homie. That’s basic shyt. Talking bout know what you doing and I’m talking bout playing real people. Nobody trying to play cpu franchises no more. shyts so boring.

Player movement solid, ai solid and same with animations.

I’m pure sure I said nba has a young fanbase. If I didn’t you know what I meant. NFL fanbase is older.

2k don’t have no damn sim community lol. 2k make they money from fukking myplayer and my team pretty much only.

Nobody is copping that shyt to play 50 seasons vs cpu

2k franchise and madden franchise are pretty on par with each other.

Actually madden online franchise is way bigger, which has a huge community compared to 2k online franchise which is horrible

If you go to discord or Facebook groups you will find 80k members in them looking for leagues. 2k doesn’t have that. Where they win is myplayer and the park with micro transactions, which madden gets a lot of also from mut but nothing close to the amount 2k gets from myplayer

Once again u don’t get the point lol

2k clearly has a huge sim community. U don’t invest the amount of money 2k put in its franchise mode if not.

put it like this 2k sim community is way bigger than madden sim community

madden franchise is not in the same league as 2ks :dahell:

I play other people too, my point still stands. The gameplay and features should be further along than they are

No they don’t breh. 2k franchise is not ther good breh lol. And they online franchise is literally not existent. Madden ain’t outselling 2k cause it’s not possible for them to have a mode to compete with myplayer.

Just cause you know wtf you talking don’t make it right. Madden is huge sim online franchise community. Which absolutely shyts on nba 2k online league, which you can even resign your players for like the 10th year in a row. 2k sells more cause of myplayer. Feel how you want. This sim 2k people not really has no reason to to guy 2k every year. The myplayer and my team guys do that.

Lack of competition and consistent sales means EA sadly has no reason to improve the game :francis:

It's not.

People just lack self control.

Not to mention, if people need their madden fix, just play madden 23 and NOT buy madden 24.

Still get the same shyt.

Yep, this is the case for everything, consumers have the power to vote with their wallets. I have no issue with casual players, streamers, pro players that buy the game it's those that complain every year yet still buy the game that make me laugh

I don’t know why people can’t. Every fukking year you get the same damn game :heh: The game is shyt, that’s the only solution yet these morons keep giving EA their money.

And it’s not just a Madden problem it’s with just about everything. Money talks.

It's wild, complain about thots yet purchase onlyfans content, complain about the Kardashians yet watch their every movement, etc etc :francis:

ITS nothing in madden that look like real football. While 2k have signature moves and mannerisms

2k has both fanbases. madden does not that’s why 2k sell more.

2k has more features than just about any game. Madden tries to be like 2k and fail everytime

Like what?

Too many things to list but:

Realistic foot planting and weight to stop, gliding and teleporting
Playbooks that reflect real life schemes especially defensively
The Oline needs major work
Weather having a real impact on the game and not just a visual thing
Better AI logic from play recognition to franchise scouting

Madden used to walk you through plays in practice mode too right? He was narrating
