What do you think of the quarterback passing animation?

It's only my opinion and I compare the QB animations to past football games that I have played. Why would you suggest me to create a game? Maybe I'm asking for too much, but my expectations aren't anything out of the ordinary for a video football game. Showing 1 passing animation was kind of underwhelming.

yeah sorry that was kinda an a-hole response from me...i just feel like Madden still hasn't gotten passing animations correct and just adding more signature styles, i feel like multiple QB signature throwing styles is a little bit too much to ask for a company developing its 1st ever game, let alone sports game. Maybe im wrong and they will have different throwing styles

Looks like a good windup for a deep pass, almost APF-esque

I'd like to see signature pass animations like "side armed throw" that we could assign to our customizable players as well.

I agree, it's not enough info to get an accurate idea. The madden guys did the same type of stuff last year. Little 4-8 second videos of blocking or jostling too.

Customizable pass animations would be cool, but I'm not expecting too much of that stuff this go round. Get the foundation built first, then they can go from there. Animations can always be added to later games imo.

Unbelievable!!!

I WANT ANOTHER FREAKING FOOTBALL GAME! LOL

And besides the question was what do you think about the passing motion or whatever. I give my opinion and I get bashed! I want this game to work, I want another football game, and YES I do love Madden and I love NCAA, and I hope I love BACKBREAKER, BUT, I am not seeing it so far. That is my opinion, some of you tell everyone that this is going to be the answer to all those unhappy with EA. Ok, I accept what you say, now if I do not believe it, I am hated, called a fanboy wtf? You talk about haters, you talk about people that cannot stand anyone who likes Madden lol! absurd!

I will say it once again, I am not bashing any game, READ THIS
"I WANT BACKBREAKER TO MAKE IT BIG TIME!" UNDERSTAND, Now do I think it will be the answer, NO! If you would like me to lie, then YES. I cannot be any clearer. I WILL pay 65 for madden, I will pay 65 for ncaa, and if I have to, I will pay 65 for BACKBREAKER. But some need to learn how to argue in a more adult manner. Not all of us are going to agree on everything.
To me, and I WISH I did not feel this way, but the passing with the QB is horrible! Does not come close to 2k, does not come close to madden. The game looks like something played on a STAR TREK movie, Im sorry, I hate the way I feel. You people know that this game will not even come close to touching Madden, you are fooling yourself if you think it will. SUCKS, but true! WAIT AND SEE!

I think it could be better for sure. I really don't like how the QB hands look on the ball, they look way too big.

But, with that said I would much rather have a game with organic physics, and collision detection, than a questionable QB animation. I think some people can't see the forest for the trees.

I simply stated I wanted to see if there'll be interactive sidelines and refs, and was called a troll with an agenda.

OH RLY? Is that all you did?

What about your post in the Wal-Mart thread? yeah... the one you deleted for the reason of "people don't like to taste their own medicine"

You are a troll. It is ok (not really). Just accept it and be who you are! (please change, you make yourself sound stupid).

Anyway, back on topic.

The animation could be better. Its not a game breaker obviously, its just an aesthetics thing. I agree, though, they all look a little funky.
