Madden 16 Q/A thread

Re: Madden 16 Q/A thread

Please and thanks for your time.

1. If you pick a team's old school uniform, does it deck the stadium in it's old throwback look?

2. If you make subs of your QB right when the game starts. (ie: I sub Rodgers out for Tolzien) When it shows the QB take the field for the first time, does it actually read the sub and show Tolzien run out past the 3d jumbotron or does the game have last year's presentation glitch and still show Rodgers running out?

3. Similar to last question.... What presentation is shown if I make my own QB and he runs out on the field?

4. Do we still have cookie cutter animations when a player is shown after an injury? I hated how a player cradled his arm no matter the injury, or was just shown running on a bike drinking air from an empty gatorade cup.

Re: Madden 16 Q/A thread

Appreciate everything, and enjoyed getting a first look at the game! Like you said, it sounds like they're on the right track, and to me, the Watch List is the big game changer for me.

Thanks again!

Re: Madden 16 Q/A thread

From what I have been seeing from game play, there is too much pocket time; not much pass rush..Is this what those playing the game feel?

Re: Madden 16 Q/A thread

I want to know about the penalties. Is there too much or not enough called?

Re: Madden 16 Q/A thread

Can anyone play a quick game in Miami and tell me if the stadium renovations are in this year? Easiest way to tell, the corners of the upper levels of the stadium will be cut out. All the orange has been replaced to aqua too.

EDIT: Nevermind. I see in some of the videos in the other thread, they've removed all the orange, but did not account for the renovations taking place. Bummer. At least the orange is gone though, really would have liked to have seen the renovations in though.

Anyone know how many cities are available to relocate too?

Do we get a notification after the computer scores late in a close game that they will use Onside Kick? Always had to use a timeout if I guess wrong in prior years.

Thanks.

I sure hope not... That sounds a little cheap. Sorta like last year when the game would always say the other team picked "special teams" when they were doing a fake.

I just don't like using a timeout not knowing if the computer is going to use onside kick formation. Teams don't put their onside kick teams on the field in formation unless the kicking team is in that formation. I don't think we should have to guess what formation to put out there…

Re: Madden 16 Q/A thread

Hey guys, was gone most of the day today, I sold my copy of Madden and am shipping it out tomorrow. I need a break from all things Madden for awhile, gonna be back playing when access drops in a few days. I think I might buy the Ps4 version on launch instead of Xbox one. If anybody wants to play online, my psn username is Sterling84. I had a really good game between steelers Ravens at night in Heinz field that I wanted to post in full, but the capture wasn't grabbing everything from fifteen minutes back, I only got less than 2 minutes of the first quarter, sorry about that. I hope you guys learned at least a few things you were interested in about 16, I think it's definitely an improvement over 15, and the devs are on the right track. I apologize to anybody who had questions I never got to, need more time in a day! Anyhow it was a blast playing early and helping out with what questions I could, hopefully I can do it again next year.

I played on PS4 last year, but going back to the One. The online is better on the One, even though the graphics maybe a little stronger on PS4. Another thing to consider is the R2 buttons break easy on the PS4 controllers because their made with cheap metal pins. But best of luck.

Re: Madden 16 Q/A thread

I'll be able to answer these based on videos of the final version:

1. If you pick a team's old school uniform, does it deck the stadium in it's old throwback look?

Yes. The Seahawks/Cowboys video in the first Twitch stream showed every fan wearing the Seahawks' 2009 lime alternate, for example. Something like this should be fixable in future editions unless it plays badly with the fans' dynamic jersey numbers.

4. Do we still have cookie cutter animations when a player is shown after an injury? I hated how a player cradled his arm no matter the injury, or was just shown running on a bike drinking air from an empty gatorade cup.

From what I recall, these animations were mandated by the NFL. Injury reactions used to be more explicit but it's something the league doesn't want to promote.

Has the sock length issue been addressed for teams like the patriots, Chiefs, Broncos, lions, and bears?

Never had problems with the R2 button only with the analog stick and I heard that was only the first controllers that had the analog problem.

Re: Madden 16 Q/A thread

I have been playing a lot more of NCAA 14 and watching a lot of the M16 game play videos for M16; I am seeing similarities in game play between NCAA 14 and M16; anyone who has played both games, are you feeling any similarities between the two?
