Pylon cams are now part of the game.
New camera angles on the field.
In-game stat overlays now will be shown over replays as well as live.
Multi-Cam is a new camera angle which can target multiple players in one cut after a play concludes.
Players and the UI exist with one another in a 3D environment.
The look and behavior of coaches has been improved on the sidelines so that they look and act more lifelike.

Isn't this it?

Spoiler

That was a picture from an article almost two years ago of them scanning it. Not sure why it hasn't made it's way in yet.

I though I did too at first but I doubt it

Yes sir. That is his elbow brace. Great find! Not a huge deal if it isn't, Aaron Rodgers still has to have the sweat band on his elbow rather than his forearm. I'm guessing next year will be the overhaul on accessories. With the padded arm sleeves and what not.

This is my biggest concern. I love the addition of the Pylon Camera and def feel that it's biggest use is for goal line challenges, feet in bounds near the goal(but out at the 1 or 2 yard line), etc. So unless there has been some improvement to the challenge system that implements the Pylon Cam, and player awareness of where they are on the field has improved, then this is a great addition. If neither of those two were fixed, then I agree it cheapens the idea of it.

Pylon Camera looks really cool, and I don't think you guys are just seeing things...those look like tattoos on Wilfork.

Everything sounds great. Loved the lighting in the screenshots. Since I loved M16, every addition is a plus with the new commentary, gameplay additions, and equipment I should be very pleased.

Now they need to add organic player movement and get rid of those guys doing motion cap.

So is Sean Payton and Bill Belichick in the game this year?

# 49 JKSportsGamer1984 @ 06/08/16 02:28 PM

All great improvements but disappointed they still haven't upgraded the sideline player models. They removed the high socks which is great, but still no names on back of jerseys, players all wearing the same facemask, etc..

This might change with the change to the frostbite engine. We've been told in the past we will sacrifice on the field graphics if the sidelines are enhanced.

If they decided to join the Union which is unlikely.

If they aren't a part of the the NFLCA, then no, as far as I know.

MrPrice33 answered this No...I'm highly disappointed...check a few post back

Might also be a Neo/Scorpio-type feature.

Wasn't really into the idea of new consoles (I have a powerful PC), but upgraded sports games might be the thing to do it for me.

New commentary team awesome! Cant wait until next week for ea play to hopefully see it in action.

Madden has to render twice as many players (with AI/physics) as 2K/The Show, with somewhere like 3x the crowd and arena size as NBA. It's a much more demanding game from a graphical standpoint.

What's even more crazy is the fact that Madden was the original creator of the user-defined camera...since the jump to Next-Gen and the engine they are using they've never been able to fix it, it's going on 10yrs now

Everything I've read about and seen regarding improvements for 17 has been exciting. I wish a lil more from presentation like replay teleprompter chalk breakdowns and/or more 'in-depth' replay breakdowns, gamebreaks where they cut to scoring in other games during CFM, among other things would have been added but I do like the all real time situations where there are no longer cut scenes (at least that's how I interpreted what they meant about everything being real time) but this definitely good to read.
