Re: Madden NFL 12 Video - First Look Reveals Custom Playbooks, What Else Can You Find
Yes, player tendencies are a must for NCAA. Moreso even than in NFL because in NCAA you have a much more diverse base of tendencies among QBs. Guys like Denard Robinson and Cam Newton who run for 1500 yards compared to guys like Ryan Mallett who just stand tall in the pocket.
And I don't see how they could say tendcies can't be done in NCAA because of player likeness. If that was the case they'd have to get rid of player ratings too. Actually, Height, Weight, Number, Age and Hometown are measurable and therefore much easier attributes to claim as player likenesses than ratings or tendencies.
I coulda sworn that custom playbooks was already confirmed for NCAA but I guess I was wrong cuz I can't find it in any threads.
They had Desean Jackson at 6'0 in NCAA 09. I think they just randomize it and allow users to change it.Last edited by illwill10; 03-22-2011, 11:24 AM.Comment

Looks interesting. I liked the overhead stadium shot, looked pretty realistic. Also the view during the field goals looked pretty good. I skipped Madden 11 so maybe they can get me back this year.http://twitter.com/sageinfinite

Re: Madden NFL 12 Video - First Look Reveals Custom Playbooks, What Else Can You Find
Custom playbooks have me excited. I always hated the Lions playbook outside of the specific plays for Megatron because I wanted wildcat plays for the lions. Now I can keep those plays and jack some of those sweet Pats slot screens and stuff and wilcat/team specific plays from other playbooks. Might keep me playing madden longer than a few months this year, especially if the on field play has some tweaks on d....and pass trajectory adjustments
sent from parts unknown
My personal dream in regards to playbooks is for them to combine tying a playbook to a coach, not a team, with the computer changing their plays every year using a weighted custom playbook setup.
So what would happen is the coaching changes would bring a new system to the team, but each year individual plays would be assessed against the current squad.
e.g. "For this play to be in playbook, Offensive Tackles PBR>90"
If it doesn't match, the play would get cycled out and replaced with one from the same formation that most matched the team's criteria.
Similarly, every year the user could be advised by their various co-ordinators if certain plays could be cycled out, and would recommend alternatives.
Tie the effectiveness of it to coach ratings, and bingo.
*End derailing*
But yes, I doubt if they would drop Gameflow in the slightest. It proved to be a very popular feature last year and is more realistic - even if it needs improvementsComment

Player tendencies - could be nice if implemented properly and if customizable in franchise mode e.g. suppress tendencies through coaching or being able to coach new ones.
Hot and cold streaks - as long as it doesn't mean super AI versus lame AI, I'm ok with it. Don't want a CPU RB being superhuman because he's on a hot steak.
However, judging from the two field goal attempts shown OL/DL interaction looks pretty much the same as previous years. And judging from the running animation clip and the stadium entrance both player models and running animations look unchanged as well. Need to see some more gameplay.
Honestly, I cannot see what doubts this teaser is attempting to reassure. To me it still looks like new gimmicks and old gameplayComment

The field goal kicking I noticed the defense looked in a much better position to block the kick. The gunners coming off the edge looked realistic and well timed also. May go a long way to finally adding some drama to big field goals.Comment

I know there's just something crucial that they're going to overlook that's going to totally kill custom play-books for me.Comment
