When will running animations be fixed?

[BV11]

The running animations are the biggest thing holding the look of this game back IMO. When I watch the videos I just cringe at what the sprinting players look like. It is just so robotic and stiff looking, if they could make the running animations as lifelike as possible, I feel like this game in motion with the footplanting and infinite engine would be beautiful.

As it is right now it looks good when players are cutting or involved in a gang tackle, but when players are sprinting which is 90% of the time it just looks so awkward and is really holding the game back IMO. When do you guys think we will see this fixed? It has not been changed in what 4 years?

Next-Gen (IMO)

Hopefully next-gen.

Yes I agree. The graphics race has slowed down and now its all about physics and making video games move realistically....if that makes sense.

Yeah when I look at screenshots for this game I think dang, that looks good. Then I remember that in motion it doesn't look nearly as good as the screen shots. The main reason for this is the running animations. Those need to be completely redone, and soon.

Can you imagine how good this game would look even with current graphics if the players just moved like real humans?

The running animations look horrendous, seems like its a core engine thing though, in order to fix this they probably have to build a new game play engine from the ground up? Which is the reason why this hasn't been fix in 8 years.

Look how good the cuts look now compared to the running animations...
