    Re: Backbreaker Screenshots: 11 vs. 11 Confirmed

    11v11? Good!

    Not a single soul on the sidelines? No referees? Every single player in the EXACT same stance? Not good.

    This game still has a loooooooooong way to go.

      I don't condole trolling.....but there are people who troll...then there are people who are fed up.

      If you are the sole holder of the NFL License, you will be held to a higher standard. If you are a company like EA who has made football games for over 20 years, you will be held to a higher standard.

      This is NM first football game, I don't know what some were expecting....or what they seem the Devs have promised...

      Is there anything wrong with this reasoning or is this a contradiction?

        I disagree. I don't think BB has any intention of being a Madden killer. I think they're very much into the friendly rivalry, but I think BB is looking to go a different direction.

        They're going two very different direction. Ian's vision is total sim... a tactical game, in the long run, emulating the NFL as close as possible. Where as BB is going for, as I said before, a more visceral, emotional, on-field experience. Tactics will take a back seat to emotion.

        There's nothing wrong with that and I'm not trying to insult BB. I'm really interested in playing this game. But they're not direct competitors the way NFL 2k5 and Madden 05 were. It's more like APF vs. Blitz... not that BB = Blitz, it's a very different approach, I'm only making a loose comparison.
        There are two types of people on OS: Those who disagree with me, and those who agree.

        The first kind is wrong. The second is superfluous.

          That's true, but I think a little talk of this game being a "Madden-killer" (not from you, but in general) set a lot of people off. People complain so much about the details in Madden and so when people start saying things like "Madden-killer" when this game is clearly not as detailed as Madden (not to mention we have no idea what gameplay is like, but that's still up in the air) it's going to make some Madden guys want to poke them back a little bit.

            that's understandable..... but two wrongs don't make a right .......

            and its not like BackBreaker has someone like PantherBeast at their disposal.

              Pros:
              The physics engine is impressive
              Competition for EA

              Cons:
              The player models stink
              Fake players

              TBD:
              Gameplay
              EA: Please add in-game saves.

                  I don't understand how people can say APF looks better than this...APF looked like a PS2 game

                    I just noticed the Batman-esque "six-pack abs body armor" that each of these players is wearing... LOL, WTF? Did they even look at real football players while creating the player models?

                      This game takes place in the future. I think they said something like 20 years from now? This is their opinion on what the players will be wearing in the future.

                        Hmm.. I wonder why they thought the equipment would be getting bigger.

                          Why do people care SO much what the players look like? I mean the players in madden look great and spot on every year, but that does'nt stop me from putting the game on the shelf after a month! It's about GAMEPLAY people!! I care more about how it PLAYS!!

                              This is true, but it makes me angry when people bash this game for how it looks. Who cares how it looks. I mean your all gonna have your (good Lokking) madden this year so who cares. Stop dissing a game because its different and stuff.

                                11v11 nice. i think this game will be very fun to play with that euphoria tech. but, thats all it seems to have going for it right now.

                                I haven't been following this game so I wouldn't know but, this game will make some sells with that new tech alone.
