Madden 25 experienced a few serious hiccups during its early access period, and the devs ironed out a few of them in the launch day update.
Ultimate Team has had its fair share of issues since early access kicked off on August 12. EA temporarily closed the auction house to resolve a few glitches. However, playersreportedthat the update failed to fix priced floors, which prevented players from listing items.
In addition, aninfinite pack exploitallowed players to acquire high overall players for cheap. When it comes to gameplay, defense has been exposed as a glaring issue. Zone defenses get torn apart on a regular basis and there is an exploit with custom route stems that beats defenses with ease.
EA took note of these issues ion Madden 25 and responded accordingly with the launch day update.
New changes coming to Madden
Here is what the devs noted will be coming to Madden 25 shortly:
Dev Note: We are monitoring feedback around Zone Coverage. We are actively working on adding a variety of improvements in the first several title updates, including improvements to Flat Zones, Cover 3 Deep Zones, Coverage checks vs Bunch sets, press animations, and additional pass velocity Ability tuning.
Dev Note: We did address an issue around players unable to complete the Combine, after meeting a specific set of conditions, when using an imported Road To Glory player.
