Madden NFL 21 Update 1.15 patch notes

  • Highlights
    • New game mode: SSKO Endless Run
    • Gameplay fixes and tweaks
    • Updated QB Slide and QB Dive mechanics
    • Streamlined and updated parts of the MUT user interface
    • Franchise and Yard Stability Improvements
    • Multi-user franchise draft issues have been fixed
    • Uniform and equipment authenticity updates
  • Gameplay updates
    • Interceptions abandoned:
      • Fixed an issue allowing defensive teammates to KO their teammate when intercepting
      • Adjusted to reduce capture penalties for defenders capturing in traffic
      • DEV NOTE: Both of these changes will reduce the number of interceptions dropped for defense, but not completely eliminate them. There will always be situations where Defenders fail to catch INTs based on ratings, physics, or interactions.
    • Fixed an issue preventing fumbles when not tired during QB Draw games, so quarterbacks will now fumble a lot more after hits, regardless of fatigue level
    • Added logic to slow QB acceleration at the end of dropback on QB Draw games, as well as restrict the direction the QB can move immediately after capturing the snap
      • DEV NOTE: Based on player feedback and stats, we've seen that QB Draw has gotten too powerful. With these changes, the QB Draw game will need to be used more strategically rather than being a base game.
    • Fixed an issue that caused RAC captures to be a little too frequent; also adjustment to reduce distance for additional defenders to cause knockouts
      • DEV NOTE: Based on player feedback and playtesting, we found that RAC captures were too much dropped in the Competitive and Simulation playstyles. These changes will greatly increase the chances of successful RAC captures when throwing to receivers with one or two separation stages on the blanket and provide better balance compared to the male blanket.
    • Fixed the issue allowing pass throwers to disengage for quick squeeze after adjusting the defensive line in formations such as 3-4 Bear and 3-4 Cub
    • Updated QB Slide and QB Dive mechanism for ease of use:
      • Press X / Square = Slide
      • Hold X / Square = Dive
      • DEV NOTE: This is the second time we've changed these mechanics via the title update this year, which is certainly not ideal, but our players have told us that previous iterations just don't work for them. This change brings the controls back to what players are most familiar with and will be the same for all ball carriers, meaning relinquishing a running back will be the same controls as QB slide, one press of the X / Square button. .
    • Adjustment to reduce imprecise passes caused by pressure
    • Adjusted to reduce average yards per pursuit in the outer zone and Stretch racing games on Competitive All-Pro and All-Madden
      • DEV NOTE: Our stat tracking data recently showed a spike in average yards per pursuit on away running games on the competitive playstyle, so we're making some blocking adjustments to reduce the effectiveness of these games. .
    • Fixed an issue preventing peak AI animations from triggering in certain lineups
    • Fixed an issue causing frequent "Roughing the Kicker" penalties on the "Field Goal Safe Man" defensive game
    • Fixed an issue that would sometimes cause the ball to launch into the field after a hit-stick against the receiver on some capture animations
    • Adjusted steering to truck motion for the Bruiser ball carrier archetype to reduce the quick oversteer that was starting to be used as a feat
    • Fixed an issue that caused full-backs and tight ends to inappropriately swap positions via an audible signal for some formations
    • Fixed an issue allowing WRs to override the HB position when going through formations within the same staff group
  • Madden Ultimate Team Updates
    • Individual training point reward screens condensed into a combined reward screen
    • Fixed an issue where users had to open Fantasy Packs twice
    • Updated illustration on the item comparison screen
  • Franchise Updates
    • Face of the Franchise Updates:

    • Franchise Updates:
      • General stability improvements

  • Presentation updates
    • Cowboys Home Pants are now less green to match the changes they've made on the court this year to the color of their "Seafoam Pants"
    • Mouthpieces are now activated throughout the game, we took extra time to make sure we covered all the bases and that it would work everywhere correctly, as a long-standing request from the community, we are happy to report that 'they are usable and function fully throughout the game.
