Madden NFL 12 Video - Eagles vs. Cowboys

[mdistefano]

i was just talking about how you never see 5-7 guys unblocked on the kickoff. one of them may have been a human controlled player but my point is there was no lane, no scheme...nothing

[mikeld1]

already i have issues with this game. If you look at the intro for the Cowboys, you will see that Romo runs onto the field with the team, then another Romo is in the tunnel with M. Austine getting ready for final intro. Also the whole offense all move at the same time from the huddle to the line, not realistic at all. Same thing towards the end of the clip from the defense. the two corners and safeties all move at the same time in the same fashion which shows you have no control over the game, some things just happen. Another major problem. Its 2011 and we still cant get a realistic football game from EA sports. this sucks!

The tunnel thing is an issue that has been fixed since this build from what I hear.

Your other issue is pure nitpicking in my opinion, you need control over the pace that an individual player approaches the line of scrimmage? What for?

Not a big deal, but would be a nice touch to see players get to the line a little less scripted. Same thing for the defense. I hate seeing them break the huddle and walk like hunchbacks to the line.

I agree it would be a nice aesthetic touch, I'm just miffed at the fact he used that as a point to say we have "no control over the game"

But I guess people just value different aspects of the game differently than others. Just struck me as an odd complaint

Ok what happened at 5:35? Romo throws a bomb to Witten who somehow either got pushed to the left or he just turned to the left. Something didn't look right with that. Awkward.

Also a question about the commentary on that play. Why in the world would Cris Collinsworth say "I don't know if thats the guy I want to pick on 3rd down, he is tough.", when it was Witten who is one of their best players. Or is that commentary remark talking about the defensive back being tough?

Defensive back being tough.

The strange part is that there was a clip a couple days ago (Eagles @ Packers?) in which Philly had the correct font.

Curious.

Then obviously this is an earlier build than that video. They can have set builds to showcase certain aspects of a game. I'm pretty sure the clip you're taking about was a build closer to release date.

How is this possible? On the kick off, the return man never had a chance. There were seven Eagles players that came straight down unblocked and made the tackle. Can we get a competitive football game please. One that is not so predictable.

Something I'd LOVE to finally make it to the game again:
Players running on and off the field. To me that makes you really have to know what your plan is and keep adapting it throught the game. So after the 1st down I get my play called and I need to do pretty quickly as players have to leave and come onto the field. This would even make using the gameplanning addition ahead of time, more worth it and more than just a way to play faster.
Yes I know it doesn't really add to the gameplay "on the field" stuff, but IMO it would add so much the the atmosphere and chess match.

Anyways I really am loving the way Madden 12 looks and can't wait to play.

Anybody a little piqued by Romo's cannon, rocket arm on that last pass? ... I mean .. .he throws the ball like 80 yards, haha.

Rocket arm? More like third stage rocket! He threw on the 10 to the 11 or so. It looked like. 89-90 yard pass and accurate to boot? Does look really good and I see some very nice things going on but that pass kinda puzzles me.

Re: Madden NFL 12 Video - Eagles vs. Cowboys

the last play of the clip shows romo throwing it from his 15 yrd line bombing it all the way to the other 17 yrd line. hold on let me get out my realistic calculator that would be 68 yrds in the air hmmmmm he be lucky to throw it 60 yards in the air. he must have a high rating in madden or can all the qbs throw it that far anyone know ?
