Madden Eras

Surely it’s time EA stepped up and did something like this. Was fascinated with what NBA2k had done.

I would love to pick a starting point in the past. Playing on the hard Astro turf fields of veterans stadium or three rivers stadium.

Just one roster set and the stadiums to go with it. I’m pretty sure the community would provide draft classes to add to the experience.

Never will happen. EA wants you to pay for it through MUT if you want to play with older players.

I’d happily pay extra if it was in the deluxe edition or some sort of retro edition.

Maybe 20 years from now. That's how far behind EA is from 2K. Even at that pace I don't think it will happen when you keep remodeling a cracked foundation.

I'm almost embarrassed at the amount of money I'd pay for an NFL eras type mode. Now it would have to be full encompassing. I'd need all Uniforms, Stadiums and nice draft classes.

Great idea but getting the game and modes at a stable foundation should be their main/only priority.

Wouldn't see it ever happening. Massive difference between 13 players (Most of which 2K was/is unable to get in older eras, most of those teams are only made up of 2-3 real guys, albeit the most important ones) and full NFL rosters. And I disagree about only including one roster set and letting the community do the work. That would just lead to the masses screaming about how lazy EA is and how they make the community do the work for them.

Hardly worth it, IMO

Additionally the amount of hurdles they'd have to clear to get every player's likeness (or even a majority of them) into the game is probably not worth the squeeze. Remember, the NFL really stands for "Not For Long"!
