The majority of FIFA community feedback is about UT and NOT gameplay nuances. People need to realize that FIFA, despite it's good sales, is not the measuring stick for sports games. It's the Show & 2K by a HUGE distance.

I reiterate:

This thread is about the Madden NFL 16 trailer. It is not a call-out thread. Discussion stays on the trailer and Madden in general.

People have lost the faith man.

As far as the trailer goes, it was alright. More of the same if you ask me.

I do like that the defender can't stick his hands through the WR's chest and make an int. (good news). Hopefully the balls and players will be solid objects, in all facets of the game this year. And I know that it is still early (only May), but I hope they improve the lighting and colors in the final release.

Its always been like this for madden, "I hope this, I hope that", i'm over it with this development team, it's obvious they don't value the sim as much as the arcade.

I remember this post, the OP is a good guy that believed what the guy from EA spouted. He (the guy from EA) was just a Gamechanger, that was saying (on the EA boards) that he had already played M-15' and that we were all going to "be impressed with the CFM changes", and then he doubled down, and tripled down. Each time saying just how great CFM was going to be and that we just had to trust him and buy the game. After I told him that I wouldn't blindly follow his orders and buy Madden based solely on his statements, I ended up with a five month ban.

Blah, looks so dated compared to other games. If this was PS3/360 I might be impressed. But for XB1/PS4? It just leaves me wanting more. Madden is that 40 year old former athlete still living in 1982. Time to move on.

I refuse to get hyped for Madden 16. Every year new promises are made and we all hold out hope for a better title and then we are met with disappointment every year. It's also hard to judge a title based on 4 scenes in a trailer.
