Not really. It's the internet. Everyone complains about everything.

The people complaining aren't in EA's primary target audience (competitive online gamers) anyway. The ones complaining online aren't the ones responsible for EA's 90% year-over-year increase in Ultimate Team sales.

Yeah, see the depth of the drop and depth of the OTs? Edge rush timing fits with that as well. The timing of the patterns fit. The timing of bump & run fit. When plays work, more times than not, they work for the same reason they do in real life.

When folks reference 2K football, they're talking about things like this. It wasn't perfect. Running animations improved with 2K8, but 2K5 running animations sucked, for example. But enough of the fundamentals were there that you could play Football if you wanted.

Gonna need to see more at E3, but what I saw in this video, I was not impressed. Graphics looked great, but aside from that, everything looked the same. Same animations and no equipment updates (still no lipguard mouthpiece; Lynch, Gore, Forte, Demaryius Thomas).

Monday can't come soon enough. Does anyone else think we'll see anything else before then?

I would think so. They will have to show something when the coverboy is announced at 4pm (PST). Maybe another trailer or more screenshots.

Not with the weekend approaching.

I would think the Madden people will be flying in over the weekend.

Laughable!! just laughable!! hahaha EA Sports, it's in the game! hahaahah Another year, another sorry football game. Hey did anyone notice according to Madden 15 Lynch lost weight? The player models/size relation has been off in this game for years. Lynch looked like a slim 3rd down RB.

Well anyway, back to NBA 2K. Real Next Gen.

Oh and you gents on this thread trying to pull the positive out of a pigs a$$, remember, NEXT GEN!!! EA ported over their game to the next gen system and is trying to sell the same game. So think on it. This is what you will get in a football game for years and consoles to come. I sure wish the NFL/NFLPA did some serious QC on the products that represent the game and stop looking at the almighty dollar. In reality they would make more money if they stated the license is XYZ and if you are a game developer you have to pay this to get a license TOO.

So tired of feeling so unsatisfied when it comes to NFL Football on the console. Every year I've bought Madden since 2006 it feels like going to McDonalds after craving some of their hot and delicious fries, only to get home and bite into a few and realize that they gave you ones that were sitting under the heat lamp for who knows how long.

It's actually laughable the lack of effort put into updating the accessories and some of the animations (ie: running) over the last several years. While 2kSports has their own issues, at least Lebron isn't sporting the same shoes that he did back when he played with Cleveland.

LOVED the fact that the Seahawks don't even have green on their cleats (doesn't work for secondary shoes) in Madden 25.

And it's great that presentation is touted as a feature every year and yet the presentation is still lacking behind the games that were on consoles two generations old.

How can EA make solid games for Soccer and Hockey and such a turd for NFL Football.

+ tackling looked good
+ watt move looked awesome
+ IMO the drop back animation looked very good
+ the Kansis City Chiefs clip at the end looked great too

- Idk what it is about the ol/dl line interactions but they look too choppy. I dont see any sense of lean or weight just to guys standing straight up
- running animations look the same
- IMO the sherman photo looks like a significant downgrade from the CK one

Gents, don't diminish the fact (and for those that are on the xbox1 and PS4), EA is not delivering yet again a next gen game. We will see if Madden 15 will be another 10gb game (if so this will tell you they are selling us once again the same game with a few gloss overs) vs the other real next gen games which are around 40 gb.

FAIL....not even close to the initial pic
 
# 172 michaelherrmann @ 06/06/14 05:04 PM
I think it looks great. I loved 25 still playing it, will be a day one buy for me.
 
# 173 johnnyg713 @ 06/06/14 05:12 PM
Also want to point out, player models look phenomenal

Me too. Madden will always have sentimental value for me as I have played Madden every year since 92'.
 
# 175 N51_rob @ 06/06/14 05:14 PM
Ehh, didn't really see anything that would convince me that wasn't Madden 25 in the trailer. Maybe improved player models, but I wouldn't stake my reputation on it.

I want to know how so many of you got the game this early.

I doubt anything before that. It will most likely be a quiet weekend until E3 starts. I would assume most of these companies are prepping for their showcases.
 
# 178 Toupal @ 06/06/14 05:33 PM
THis may be nit-picky, but I don't like how the sidelines and fans still look the same. All of the fans are staring straight forward and clapping at nothing. Maybe next year, ea can find a way to have the fans and stadium to follow, read, and react to what is going on, on the field.

Yeah, like they're going to buck the trend and deliver a stellar next gen experience.
