Madden NFL 15 Includes Peyton Manning Omaha Cadence

[DCEBB2001]

I am SOOOO glad that EA took the time and effort to put Peyton Manning's "Omaha" call in the game! This was the number one priority for changes to be made between M25 and M15. No wonder things like real-time physics, foot-planting, ratings that actually work, better animations, better tacking physics, and better CCM/Franchise mode had to take a back seat.

I will DEFINITELY buy this game now that I can hear Peyton say "Omaha" for 30 straight seconds before he snaps the ball!

Way to go EA! You really give us Maddenites the things we crave most! If it's in the game, it's in the game.

The only way I'd want a field pass feature in Madden is if it had authentic audio; otherwise the standard pre-play player chatter is fine by me. Just my opinion, though.

I was just sayin that the other day. Field Pass was garbage. They were trying to be like Blitz The League with that feature, but the voice acting was nowhere near as good. That joint was embarrassing.

Seriously. This is news?

The original NFL Blitz games (1997 - 2003) also had trash talk between players before and after plays. I was disappointed when EA Sports left it out of their 2012 remake. It actually does add something to a game's fun factor.

Actually a very cool feature. I've never seen this feature until now. Thanks!

Would be cool to have a signature cadence button you can press pre snap like the quite the crowd animation. Would be funny and annoying at the same time having Peyton yell Omaha 10 times before the snap.

If I was a teenager again I would think this is kinda cool. However, I have been playing this game for 26 years now. I remember when they implemented the 'Peyton Manning 20 seconds of audibles' a couple years ago. It was annoying and slowed the game every time I played his team. I don't care if he says Omaha, Portland or Columbus.

I feel like there are bigger things that need attention. Auto-Subs being one of the biggest issues. I get that they will be adding new sounds captured on the field and that is cool... but don't talk this up like it is something brand new either.

On top of that, since when do cadences matter in a game of Madden?

I also hated that. It would just lull me to sleep any time I played the colts in that game.

So what I'm getting is that people pick and choose what they want in the game.

Something in the game which reflects true to life NFL they don't want = don't want it you suck EA

Something not in the game they want = EA Sports, if it's in the game it's NOT in the game

They put in a small detail to the game, I'm happy about it. Would I rather have some other stuff? Of course. But to be a "pick and choose" critic...jeez.
