College Football 25's Dynasty Mode: Is It Better Than Madden's Franchise?
EA Sports recently gave us a peek at College Football 25's Dynasty Mode, and it looks like a real challenger to Madden NFL 25's Franchise mode. This is EA's first college football game in 10 years, and the first without the NCAA branding. They've really gone all out to make it special!
Recruiting is a Whole New Game
Recruiting in College Football 25 is more than just picking the best players. You need to meet a bunch of requirements to attract them to your school. There are 14 different things that determine if a player wants to go there. You can also do things like give them a campus tour to try and convince them to choose you. It's a lot more complex than Madden's recruiting, but it's also more rewarding.
Coaching Skill Trees: Become the Best
In College Football 25, you can level up your coaching abilities by picking skills on a tree. You can specialize in different areas, like recruiting or motivating players. This makes you feel like you're really growing as a coach. You're not just a generic franchise like in Madden. You're a real person with skills that improve over time. You can even switch teams if you get a better offer.
Create Your Own Conference
With the shake-up in college football conferences, you might not like the new groups of teams. But don't worry! College Football 25 lets you make your own conferences. This is great for online play. You and your friends can create your own league and play with whatever teams you want. This is something Madden just doesn't offer.
College Football Makes for a More Exciting Dynasty
College Football 25's Dynasty Mode is more exciting because college football is a temporary stop for players. They graduate and move on, so you need to constantly find new talent. This keeps the game fresh and interesting. Madden's Franchise Mode can get stale after a while. Once you have a good team, there's not much reason to keep looking for new players. College Football 25 doesn't have that problem.
So, which game is better? It really depends on what you're looking for. If you want a deep and rewarding experience, College Football 25's Dynasty mode is a great option. If you want something simpler, Madden Nfl 25's Franchise Mode might be a better choice. The good news is that EA has given us two distinct experiences to choose from, so there's something for everyone.
