the only thing i don't like that i hope is fixed is when you have a big play, you pause the game and want to go to instant replay, it never starts at the beginning

Does anyone know if the defensive player will be given more time to make pre-snap adjustments? Unless the guy on offense makes adjustments it doesn't look like there's time to setup more than one thing. (BnR, crash left/right, blitz lb, etc).

This game is not a must buy for me. It is a high maybe for me. I'll probably wait a few days after release and see what other real players (not website blog owners) say about certain concerns that I have.

BTW, love the kicking meter. Makes so there are no more automatic 58 yard field goals. And block fg's are finally a possibility! Punt returns still need work IMO. Can't break anything past 3 yards with Hester...

Lots of great feedback so far guys. I've been compiling the feedback from across the community and it'll be getting sent over to the development team later today.

This might not sound like a big deal but with QB Accuarcy at default settings i had like 2-3 poor throws by Cutler.....

now why is that big to me....well in the past at default settings i don't think i've ever seen a QB make a poor throw regardless of ratings. I mean he just completely missed his WR's.

Might just be my controller but for some reason on kicks when the meter comes down the response time when I hit A is not good. Doesnt even recognize I hit A half the time.

Yep, super LBs are gone. The trajectory of intermediate passes have more of an arch, and you can throw it over the LB and it will get to the receiver before the safety can break it up. In NCAA you pretty much have to have a lane.

Is this the general consensus? I haven't played the demo yet. I may have to buy this game if the super LBs are gone. I couldnt stand them in NCAA.

I disagree. Super LBs are still in the game from my experience with the demo.

Super LBs are still there played three games every game there was atleast one or two Super LB plays.

Some gameplay I recorded

1st quarter.

Breaking down the tackling in M12.

for comparisons sake here is some vid of tackling on M03

<iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/rzKIjjnJ-Es" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Overall I think its an improvement from 11 bit still not digging the running animations which look and feel funky and the tackling while improved still doesn't look to be up to 03 or 2K5/8 standards but maybe it will be improved in the full game.

Probably not a day one purchase(getting the Wii version at launch still) but will get it when its on sale.

This is my issue, and has been for a few Maddens. To the point where I pick "Punt Block" when I want to get a good return, over "Punt Return". It just seems that my guys can't block and you just get tackled as soon as you catch the ball..always.

1. DPP is the real deal.

2. Big hits sound like big hits.

3. Graphically this game is great !

4. Players talk a lot, which is great.

5. I like how players argue with refs over calls. Jennings caught a TD pass but the ref said he was out of bounds. Jennings got in the ref face arguing his point of view saying he caught it in bounds, doing the whole arm movements and everything.

6. Zone coverage is very good, even against 4 verticals.

7. DEs actually pass rush and get after the QB.

8. Runners use ALL of their special moves.

9. When the QB scramble, they actually run with a purpose and try to get a TD. And NOT slide after 3 yards like they do so much in NCAA 12. Scrambling QBs also use ALL of their special moves while running, something that they don't do in NCAA 12.

Over all I can't understand how Madden 12 is so much better then NCAA 12 when they are made in the same building. It is like a night and day difference in game play, presentation, sound and graphics.

Some of these facial animations are down right eerie looking how life like it looks.

That is the 1st thing that jumped out to me was the awareness of Rogers....

I think DPP is going to be awesome this year for the game.....when i saw Rogers take off like 2-3 times without hesitation it made me really mad at the NCAA crew.....

I'm on the same boat as you this is the same company how come we can't get our beloved NCAA 12 to be like Madden 12

havent really noticed super LB, actually just hit a pass up the middle where the LB had his back turned, no magic eyes in the back of the head.
