The update itself is pretty beefy with six major areas that have been changed. Perhaps the most notable is the update to League History. Now, players are able to “revisit the history of your franchise through our new running log of key award winners, conference, and Super Bowl champions on a yearly basis.” Before the update, you were limited to seeing the current year’s stats and awards, but now that you can look at your league’s entire history, you can track how they’ve done much easier.
Other updated systems include Trade Logic & Player Value Improvements, Draft Pick values, Team Philosophy Value Differences, Player Value Modifiers, and QB-Specific Value Improvements.
The full list of changes can be found right here.
If you still aren’t satisfied with how Madden NFL 21 turned out, remember that EA has been focusing its efforts on the upcoming Madden NFL 22 so hopefully, they’ve seen fan feedback and are planning to change things up. That said, EA is not the most reliable company in the world so who knows.
