This gif is just ridiculous to me. Running full speed, coming to a dead stop in like 2 steps, then spinning? C'mon son...... Again he's not even looking at the defender. Guess it went from psychic DB's to psychic RB's

Like I said the lineplay stuff looks pretty good. Really love that stuff. They just have to overhaul alot of this stuff like they did the line play.

Unfortunately, EA won't change this. They want the user to have control of the player and have more "wow" plays. EA has almost exclusively had the offense more dominant. Why else do they add the precision modifier and all those combo moves

Kind of like what the NFL is doing now. They are turning it into an offensive game. The offense has all the advantages.

Those videos are exactly what I was hoping for all these years. Focusing on where it ask starts, in the trenches. Sure, there is some fine tuning that needs to be worked on but if you ready just pay attention to the individual wars its awesome. There is actually momentum in true step. No more pity patty hand fighting.

Much better than I expected the game to look. I'll be the first to give them props for overhauling the O-Line. I think that's going to pay HUGE dividends.

That said, the running animations don't look much better. And why does the QB still throw and hold the ball in the exact same way they did this generation? That's something that should have never made its way over to NG. Hopefully they are still holding some stuff back, but I doubt there will be much.

Still, today was a good sign for the future of Madden.

I am indeed a little more impressed with these videos. I did notice some nice lighting in these videos, and I recall reading that NextGen Madden would have progressive lighting and progressive weather that changes and actually accumulates on the field. I know I read it on this site since I rarely read sports game news anywhere else.

Can someone help me out? I cannot seem to find this reference anywhere. I am a big fan of progressive lighting as it helps immerse you in the fact that the game is getting closer to the end when you see the sky darken and the lights come on.

Thanks for any help. Back to the subject at hand.

The actual player models seem to have declined looks wise vs current gen. There is something about the QB model that looks way off. Hunch back or maybe they are to big. Geezz not sure. Definitely only a few player model body sizes.

Overall, just ok. Wasn't expecting more from EA. Next Gen system, same ole Madden.

I'll be giving my impressions on today's trailers and info soon, just now catching up. I am impressed that we got a full gameplay reveal today and not just a trailer for True Step, I definitely expected each element of gameplay to be revealed over the next few weeks.

It boggles my mind that ps2 and Xbox did this last generation and current generation NCAA could do it but Madden never had it.

I'm hoping its in there too cause it's a clue feature

I think those details will be revealed soon in the LIVE IT feature. Living worlds.

The more I watch the raw gameplay clips that Clint is narrating, the more I see how horrid the animations still are. Just look into the secondary. Players stuttering and moving sporadically, man. I just will never be able to fully give them props until they fix this movement. A couple bad animations I could deal with, but this stuff is all over the field at every position. Even the new OL/DL stuff they overhauled for this year has suction and sliding everywhere. I mean damn Tiburon. WTH is holding you back?

Re: Madden NFL 25 Next-Gen Gameplay Trailer and Four More War in the Trenches Videos

Thanks for the links. I actually found it just before you posted. I hope the feature is like NCAA used to have. The sun literally moved after every play and the progression from daytime to dusk to dark was impressive. I know this may sound corny but it made me feel pressured that I was running out of time. It's like our bodies know that if the sun is going down and the lights are on we are getting close to the end of the game, and if we are trailing.....well we better rally fast!

I don't understand why people keep talking about QB drop backs.. This maybe just me but when I pick a passing play and I hike the ball I'm looking downfield at the WR and not watching my QB drop back! So I don't really worry about small stuff like that!
