Gang Tackling Challenge Response (from Ian Cummings)

I think theres some suction blocking at 1:34

The blocker that pulls over should of blocked the guy right infront of the ball carrier...yet he warps into the guy that behind him:




Than this guy for a split second stops when running to the ball carrier:

Ian>>>>>other people that work for madden


Its great to have some feeling of true concern with customer satisfaction

Good Job on improving the tackling

I was watching the vid on YouTube in High Quality and you can see where the new IK system is in effect. The players arms really reach out and grab and turn more realistically now. Nice little touch.....

Great example image of the big issue I was talking about...this was happening all over the place (until Ryan fixed it). Hoping in the video tomorrow I can show some plays run back to back to back.

Sounds great Ian,

Just so you know I edited my post and added 2 more images..I think theres more suction blocking on 1:34.

Im not trying to nitpick, but suction blocking ruins a football game for me.

This is good stuff. Ian, you're the man. The OS forum should be on the credits for Madden 09 lol.

A little off topic here, but hopefully Ian you'll answer this. Will the sleevless look shown in some of NCAA 09 screens be in Madden 09? It's a good look for WR, CB's, and athletic looking DE's.

I am pretty sure the Jets logo was fixed in this batch.

The Steeler single digit #'s have been put on the helmet stripe??...lol,please say it has...lol.

I just wanted to say,a big thank you,to not only you Ian,but LBz as well.
As already been pointed out,if it wasn't for LBz doing his 2k vids,this issue would have probably gone unnoticed.

Also...I think it's a great thing that we now have a Madden "dude" here to interact with the community. I feel this will be a great interaction between the 2 sides.
I will admit,I have been very critical of the Madden series on this gen of consoles,also at this point in time I'm not able to see any gameplay vids,so I will have to take cats words for it. So far,I'm starting to get a little better feeling towards Madden.

I do however have one question.
Since I'm not able to view any vids,I like to control a LB,will I be able to actually get off the block and not be "suctioned" to the blocker?

Again....a very big thank you to Ian and LBz
