So most people hate the superstar mode in Madden, nearly everyone buys the games every year to just play their favorite teams as a whole. Well no, that's not what I really want. I'm one of those people who like superstar mode, the whole thought of just controlling one person on the team and controlling everything he does. So why not this.... CREATE A FOOTBALL MMO! Ok, so that sounds a bit weird and wtf like? But think about it, you chose a position, there could be quick games where you are put into a random game with random people, or you can create your own team/join existing teams. There could even be a real tournament league going on every month where there could be a certain number of teams playing off, the winners get some special crap, extra points for their character, more showey catches or some crap.
I think it'd be interesting to have everyone do 1 thing and 1 thing only. It would feel more like a real football game if it was made well enough. The superstar in Madden of course was cool, though retarded teammates made it feel less realistic. I can't say how many times I've burned a CB just to have my team QB throw it behind me instead of in front ~.~;
Imagine chosing a position, and you being able to build on general skills (speed, strength), elusive skills (Juke, spin), power skills (truck, break tackle), and than position specific skills. Like RB could have quick step (lets you recover speed faster after juke), or gap burst (player receives extra initial speed boost when going through gap in OLine). WR could have drop back (Receiver is able to stop when ball is underthrown, catch, and recover quickly to run) or dive catch (If ball is thrown too far or low, receiver will make a diving catch). You know, crap like that. And every level you gain for those certain technuiqes, the faster your guy will do it and have a higher chance of doing it succesfully.
That's my idea, I would love for this to happen. Imagine a team that's crazy superior like the Pats and just rapes everyone, or a team so bad the Dolphins would laugh at them.

I don't see why they just don't make all of the players the mascots of their team. Really, how cool would it be to play as a cowboy lassoing a dolphin?
If they could pull this off on a console, I’d be interested. But it’s damn near impossible to play a sports game with a keyboard and mouse.
Wow, they really should have done this already, at least considering multiplayer and with everyone on broadband connections and what not.
get about 24 people to play one game, and you just control one character. Build up player rating offline, and keep the multiplayer semi random. I've got great ofline numbers playing the QB. i pick my top three fav positions, but I get higher dibs on QB than some other guy with lets stick time playing the position. That way, you avoid the bullshit that MMO's have to cover. Nothing would kill this idea more than 1000 people sitting in a lobby, waiting to get a game together "LF DT for Dal vs WAS, PST"
Then just steal one of the good ideas from Brawl's online: If someone drops, a computer character takes over.
That would really push multiplayer sports into something special. Like RockBand for video game nerd-jocks
I dont think this would work. Its an awsome idea but have you ever been in a huddle. If you have than you know how much people whine about being open or not geting good blocking. Now throw in the way people act on Xbox Live. At least in real life you can physically threaten someone or have the coach pull them ut but online...
Also what about fatigue and the off time when the other side of the ball is on the field. Me and my friends tried to play ncaa07 with all 4 of us on one team and it was chaos. I was an o-lineman and still ended up in arguments.
Maybe a basketball game but an nfl ame is almost impossible
You have terrible blogs.
