The genesis of this concept was from the NCAA series.<\/p>\n<p>For example, when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are rolling at home, they can activate &#8220;Fire the Cannons,&#8221; which restores player energy for the Bucs when they are in the red zone. There is also &#8220;Shook,&#8221; which distorts the play art for the opposing team, and there is also &#8220;Tunnel Vision,&#8221; which hides some of the visiting team&#8217;s receiver icons on pass plays.<\/p>\n<p>The entire mechanic is designed to deliver an element of home-field advantage. Home teams will have access to more M-Factors. The Momentum Meter is at the top of the screen, so players will know what stage they are in. Other examples of M-Factors are <a href=\"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/nfl-kicker-kris-brown-kicked-a-donut-into-my-skull-video\/\">kickers always kicking<\/a> in the ice stage, tougher kick meter to stop, fewer stamina reserves in high-altitude stadiums, and hot routes being made more difficult.<\/p>\n<p>Every stadium has a unique M-Factor based on the history of the building and team. Neutral site games won&#8217;t have a home-field advantage. There will be presentation elements added to augment the M-Factors effect on the game and situation. This element will be tuned for every mode. The home-field advantage factor won&#8217;t be active in MUT.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Future Updates To GameDay Momentum<\/strong>\u00a0&#8211; More experienced players won&#8217;t be less impacted by M-Factors at launch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Post-Launch Franchise Mode Upgrades<\/strong> &#8211; We will see more upgrades post-launch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dynamic GameDay 2<\/strong>\u00a0&#8211; This initiative comprises three components: GameDay Atmosphere, GameDay Momentum, and Star-Driven AI.<\/p>\n<p>Atmosphere is about crowd reactions, stadiums, and presentation. Star-Driven AI is designed to make teams play in ways that are true to their real-life versions. It is all about tendencies and AI. Specifically, this should impact QB decision-making under pressure, ball-carrier moves, etc. From a team standpoint, offensive and defensive play-calling and tendencies are based on real-life behavior, or in franchise, based on the play from team owners and sims.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More Tackle Variety<\/strong>\u00a0&#8211; Touch tackles for downed ball carriers and new sideline tackle options.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More Catch Types\u00a0<\/strong>&#8211; In addition to sidelines, players will have more variety in the middle of the field.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Blocking Improvements<\/strong>\u00a0&#8211; Work was done to create more realistic pockets, and run blocking will incorporate momentum, size, speed, and physical traits.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Superman Characters<\/strong> &#8211; Fictional men and women decked out in the stands.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New Celebrations<\/strong> &#8211; New player Celebrations have been added.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New Pre-Game Presentation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>More Authentic Crowd Noise<\/strong>\u00a0&#8211; EA has worked with real teams, stadiums, and sound experts to get realistic crowd noise.<\/p>\n<p><strong>High-Altitude Gameplay Effects<\/strong>\u00a0&#8211; In Denver, pass and kick distance will be increased for both teams.
