Madden NFL 25 Gameplay Impressions - Run Free and Run Blocking (UTC)

[Yubbed]

great read I like what he had to say.

Unrelated, but are those new gloves that Desmond Bishop is wearing? He wore these last year. Also, as we have mentioned with other players before(Vick screenshot) it looks like he got a new face scan.

They same something to this effect about the run blocking every year, give it a month after release and watch the complaints come flooding in.

They never said something about the run blocking being improved last year, every review/preview I ever read said it was still awful.

The good: All of the run modifiers, a visible difference between speed and power backs

The Bad: nothing

The Ugly: Stamina and Momentum still have to be "tweaked". Wasn't IE2 always touted as "momentum based physics"? Let's hope that this gets the attention it deserves. I really don't want to see a RB or WR jump over a defender and bowl over the safety like he's a rag doll in one complete animation..

Thats cool, what I would like to know is how is "collision detection/clipping?

Manual control of the safety, is "riskier" than before as opposed to everyone being Troy P or Ed Reed every down?

These are things that effect on things of this nature as it just nulls and voids it when people play 'arcadey' and the game neglects actual foot planting that would in essence make people who user control players play more wisely instead of how they play the game now.

Being a defensive mind I really hope I can put together a D to stop all I'm hearing..but at the same time can't wait to run wit Ray Rice and Baltimores beast O Line

Ad a defensive guy.... Still wondering if defense will even get a look.
