Confirmed: The Hitstick Will Be Much More Realistic

[StonesRunIt]

I asked Ian on twitter: "Will the laws of physics now apply to the 'hitstick'? And is a larger risk associated?"

He replied: " You betcha"

Detailed answer? No. Promising? Yes.

nice, the hit stick was always way too arcade-like before. I'd like to see late hits/penalties be enforced with the tweaks to the hit stick now..

Hopefully it isn't as useless as the one in APF 2k8.

Actually, this has been confirmed as well. Late hits, and hits out of bounds will be flagged this year.

LMFAO! APF didn't call it a Hit Stick. I think it was a reach tackle gimmick. And yes, it was awful.

If your a fan of oldschool football players and actually are familiar with most of them APF does alot of things better than Madden did. The game had its issues but it was still SIM like and great.
