Madden NFL 25 Video - Playbook: Run Free with Trey Wingo and Doug Martin

[TheTruth437]

I'm seeing too many big plays. Almost every run shown in the video is a big, highlight play.

running mechanics still look awkward, but i'm loving the stiff arms, and it does now appear that you have free ability to run, which is what i've wanted for years.

i think i will pleasantly enjoy this feature as long as they do the stamina bar right, so that a running back can't do 30 spin moves and 5 stiff arms on one play.

THEN AGAIN, ....i just recall the marshawn lynch beast mode play and recall that it's possible, just not probable.

A highlight reel showing....wait for it.....highlights!!?!?!! OMG!!!!!

More on topic, game speed seemed really quick to me. Might just be because I'm used to NCAA at this point. Definitely better than the first trailer they showed, but still not quite there yet like others have said.

That's the point. Wouldn't make sense to showcase the "Run-Free" feature and have every clip be of a back running 2 yard dives. That would be like the "Force-Impact" clips showing every defender missing tackles and getting steamrolled.

Looks way too loose in the video for my liking, but I am sure that was just to show off the mechanic. I'm sure it will be able to be tuned to a tighter level in the final build. I actually think it will be a good feature.

lol. i don't understand how people make comments like this. they took a COMPILATION of these types of moves and made a video. it would be the equivalent of NFL Films making a film of the best runs of 2013 in a 1:00 minute video, and someone like u complaining that it can't be real because there are too many big plays. IT'S A COMPILATION.

smh.

Such a nice looking game in screen shots. In motion this game just looks AWFUL.

I guess you guys would rather see the hbs run 2 yards and put their hands out and showcase the new ball carrier avoidance feature instead?
