Re: NEW Xbox One Gameplay Video (ESPN)

Amazingly bad.. I see better physics in GTA5 when I'm trying to walk down a steep hill and my character falls forward because of too much momentum. EA is laughable..

That's because it uses the Euphoria Engine, which is the stuff Backbreaker used, a game that also got dumped on.

EA details at its best. Trent Richardson wearing #22

Even better details, Richardson a hands down power back with a nasty stiff arm/truck is hurdling at the goalline? Little things like this always bother me on current gen because its like im playing against the same players no matter what. I would expect McCoy to do a useless hurdle like this, thats his style, he is a jump cutter. There is no reason Richardons doenst put his helmet down or an arm out and walk easily into the endzone or at least use his best traits. Of course this could just be user input but it bother me when i saw it.

I noticed when I load up GTA5 it says something about "Natural Motion" too. Guessing that must be another engine or something. Never looked into it.

Edit: Just saw post on last page that says they are the ones who created the Euphoria Engine. Makes sense lol.

Mehhh, the game is what it is at this point. Just address what is there. One thing they need to do is slow down that QB auto-drop. It's too fast and creates some unrealistic scenarios for people who like to play with scramblers.

Another next-gen Madden NFL 25 video has arrived, showing nothing but zoomed in footage from a simulation of tonight's match-up between the Indianapolis Colts vs. San Diego Chargers.

What are your thoughts?

I'm having a hard time believing that is next gen ( but I know it is confirmed as being next gen). It looks current gen to me. I know Madden 25 xbox 360/ps3 didn't have the best graphics, but this still doesn't look next gen.

I have no idea what EA is doing with this game. IMO this game is going to sell very poorly

Re: NEW Xbox One Gameplay Video (ESPN)

This is what we want..

No, I want something better than APF2k8 . APF2k8 doesn't have the same quality of MLB the Show and Nba2K imo. APF2k8 was good for its time but it came out over six years ago on what will be last-gen hardware.

I want Madden to consist of similar quality to MLB The Show, NBA2k and FIFA.

the air is changing here boys. It feels different this time around... less people are defending ea. They yank their own videos... casual fans on facebook and youtube bashing the game. Lots of dislikes on videos....etc. Maybe the nfl will sense a disdain in the community, and realize that it doesn't represent their sport properly. Not so much that they care.... but if they see that even the mainstream crowd isn't happy.... heres to hope lol

It's a good thing I love NCAA 14 so much. But one good thing about next gen madden is that beautiful plush highly detailed grass.

Reminds me of trailers from car games... 'pretty car taking a corner' 'pretty car passing another pretty car' and nothing from the angle you play at. Of course that's not the point of this video, but as a result I can take away only so much from this.

APF2k8 was a amazing engine to build on. There are many moments where it looked real for a moment or two (Something Madden never accomplishes). Go play NBA 2k8. Imagine what APF2k would be right now if it had sold well. Next gen would have added even better gameplay and graphics. APF2k8 was a great engine, that felt rushed in graphic polish, and features. The animations would have been smoothed out through the years, just like NBA 2k8 vs NBA 2k14

Re: NEW Xbox One Gameplay Video (ESPN)

It's starting to hit home guys. Remember how everyone says "Operation Sports are the hardcore fans which is 10% of the total user base". Well here are some of the casual fan comments that don't visit Operation Sports or other Madden sites.

From the 1st Saints VS Dolphins ESPN Sim video.

yeah its getting real ugly out there, im glad ESPN got involved cause now they will see feedback on a much larger scale. One can only hope the NFL sees this as negative press and remove this exclusive license stuff so other developers can make an attempt on producing a much better brand of NFL football

lol video has been removed, last time the question was id this netgen smh

Yeah, if in that video one the cars spun out, began going into reverse at the same speed and the other car made a wrong turn. The angle of the video has nothing to do with the bad animations/AI present.

Re: NEW Xbox One Gameplay Video (ESPN)

That right there is the post of the year. And maybe even the post of the last 5 years! When there was 2 NFL games. It's obvious that many liked the other game better than Madden. Now that Madden won the war (off the field), they struggle to accept Madden for what it is and that the game is not made to appease them solely. The game is made to appeal to larger a demographic
of sports gamers. And in that respect the game achieves its primary goal. yes it sucks that EA "wal-marted" your personal favorite chain but love it or hate Madden is what it is.

It's not about them not making the game for "us", (sim type players), it's that they're not really doing anything to push the envelope AT ALL, they're not even making a successful arcade game, if they didn't have the exclusive license they would be in the exact same place as NBA Live has been, OUT OF BUSINESS.

I'm going to go on a rant here...oh forget it, it's a waste of breath until enough people stop buying the game and EA gives up the license. The only goal Madden has achieved is assuring no one else puts out an NFL game.

Wake me from my cryogenic sleep when someone else gets the NFL license or it's open again.

Re: NEW Xbox One Gameplay Video (ESPN)

This is what we want!!!

Yeah i just want to ball up and cry ...imagine with 2ksports would do with the new console hardware. I remember when EA got the NFL rights to NFL videogames..i literally had tears rolling down my face...i will never forget that day, the day of infamy!

One of the BIGGEST EYE SORES with Madden is the animations..especially after plays..the players pivot like robots compared to this old game above..amazing EA dev's simply do not get it!!
