Why is Madden allergic to adaptive AI?

[simbayless]

AI is the heart and soul of sports games
College football acknowledge this!
These mini PC you call consoles
Are way too powerful not to have smart AI
Madden got criticize for lack of animations for years

Now the main focus should be great AI
Where the CPU makes you strategize
On both offensive & Defense
The better word would be make the user fear the superstars

All-pro football made me fear Dan Marino arm, Jerry rice God route running,oj speed, ect...
The fear needs to be felt on Madden
And not make robo QB a bandaid

Basically. Like a chess match instead of highlight reels all game

Madden has "adaptive AI" already set up under the hood, it's just disabled by default.

Because Madden has an appetite for self-destruction. I long for the day they put up the sign,
"Under New Management''.

Why do they have it disabled? So it can be a “new feature” for next years game?

you can click to enable it with Frosty Editor on the PC but it does not work right and the computer ends up "going dumb" eventually. My guess is it will be in for 26 functioning something like College football does.

It is not as simple as just clicking at to enable it. There are still parameters elsewhere that have to be tuned for it to really work the way you want it. It's a reactive system based on various alert parameters

The reason it's there is because it shares the same base build as CFB and CFB does have it. No different from how stuff like custom route stems (which they did turn on for M25 this year) was present in Madden 24 before CFB even existed.
