Madden NFL 12 Blog - Dynamic Player Performance Examined

[Gosens6]

Man, I haven't been this excited about Madden in years. I'm still a bit skeptical to see if everything works as advertised, but if it does, it's gonna be a good season for football video gaming.

I take it that the DPP traits will be shown throughout in this manner based on what takes place in game? Very nice if so. The end TD was kind of cheesy and predictable, hoping it was just to show off the feature and not that easy to succeed everytime.

The thing that gets me is that there is NO way the presentation is that good in the game. It can't be.

That's exactly what I was thinking, if the commentary is that good, i'll be sold.

All those overlays and whatnot won't be there saying the tendency just went up etc. That's marketing at work.

Cool! But one thing in the video was the cool 3d graphic showing how DPP affects the players on the field. Was that manufactured for the trailer, or is that in the game?

I wasn't talking about that. I was mainly talking about the voiceover. That was specifically crafted for the video.

Great video to show DPP. But yeah, the presentation was made for that video, including the play by play commentary.

Nevertheless, what matters to me is what we're seeing with players changing throughout and tendencies changing. I'm loving this. Putting a QB in the dirt often will really rattle him. Maybe even to the point that you'd consider pulling him if he were rattled and erratic on throws. It really will bring the "game manager" type QB into play vs the gunslingers like Jay Cutler.
