There has been ongoing debate concerning BB and its gameplay and if there will be issues with the AI. I have great confidence that this game will take a huge step forward in the right direction to giving us a complete football experience. With that being said I still have doubts about a few areas so...

The 1st thing I'm going to do is put the AI through rigorous testing. I'm going to do this by running the same plays multiple times in a row to see if the AI reacts or adjust. Then I'll run through all the known money plays that have plagued all football games like passes to the flats, screens, outside tosses, attempt to do things like nano blitz etc. I'm also interested about the ball carrier aspect if there are actually power backs because right now every offensive player is getting smeared by defenders.

Somehow I think I'll be pleasantly surprised. I think these Devs are the kind of guys that have been lurking and listening to all the things that are not done well in Madden and 2k and are looking to give them to the fans.

May I ask if you have access to the game now?

If not, titling a new thread "Backbreakers 1st test..." seems a little bit misleading. I had the impression the first post will actually have video footage or an analysis written up about a "first test."

EDIT: When you do get to give Backbreaker a "first test," do a follow up post. Plus, even with the 2nd Developer's Diary, there is something that still concerns me. I'll post my concerns in that thread when I get it written up.

Yeah, title misled me as well...

This thread should be non-existent due to the fact that the OP does not have access to the full final version of the game.

Misleading topic ain't it my friend. Can you please tell us how you are going to get access to a game that is nnot fully done yet. And it is 3 months from drop date still.
