Looked so ugly it was cringeworthy. No one throws like that lmao

Will the system become watered down once the league is filled with predominately random players (10 years into a CFM for instance)?

You can only scout it if it's one of their top 3 attributes

That's the stuff that kills me. Like how did that even make the cut to be in the game in the first place. That **** is awful. Better yet with them capturing all new animations, how is it still there? Hopefully it's gone come retail, but if the past is any indication, it won't be.

They have Ben's sig throw in the game, it looks good to me, I just don't understand why they don't have it trigger all the time, or atleast capture more that look like it to trigger in all situations. Just confuses the hell out of me.

This was mentioned in another thread and I am gonna echo it. I feel like part of the problem is the game speed in the video. I know that "football is a fast game" but that gameplay looks a lot more sped up than what I see on TV. It kind of gives it this "herky jerky snap" movement.

I think we all know the game looks and animates better on slow and very slow game speed. I think it would behoove Tiburon to smooth out those things when editing these clips together.

That won't fix the football being "punched" off the QBs hand like a shot put, but it could help other things

All those Qb dropback and throwing animations looked horrid.

@47secs rb #33, movement is unnatural too fast.

@4mins 24secs bad decision by the db, he had no chance at an int, he should have tried to tackle/strip the ball away from the receiver. A bad position to play the ball instead of the receiver, hopefully this doesnt happen with cpu controlled players too often.

@5mins 5secs that jump from Dez Bryant looked too fake and unnatural, like he just shot out a jack in the box. The same goes for AJ Green @5mins 34secs, transition from running to jumping is just unnatural looking, NBA Live has this same issue.

Yeah it does look better on the slower speeds, but slower also brings out those awkward bad animations too, like the handoffs(which they finally fixed, even though some people said there was nothing wrong with them). They just need to recapture stuff every year, which is something they don't do. They leave animations in for YEARS regardless of how bad they look.

Clint confirmed they have new dropbacks, they weren't in the first time I played so maybe part of this is older footage. The last time I played I noticed the dropbacks were different immediately.
