Re: ball spiral and physics

Yes. Agreed.

It always seems to have the same bounces, or it dies like it's stuck in mud. The spin on passes should be faster too...

Re: ball spiral and physics

Definately agree with this. I think the Madden team needs to take a lesson from the Fifa team. Fifa's ball physics are great.

One thing i love about fifa is if a player's ball skills are not up to par, the player cannot perform certain "tricks." In some trick performing situations, the player even loses the ball.

I would love to see that in Madden. A lineman intercepts a pass and you decide to juke the QB and whoops, ball slips out. Or Eli Manning is running and tries to do a spin move and Fumble...Something along those lines.

Would love to see Madden improve the ball physics. Deflections and how the ball bounces seem a bit strange and unnatural. (Although how natural can a bouncing football look)

Re: ball spiral and physics

They reduced the size of the ball in Madden 10 as far as they could. If they reduce it to any smaller size, it would mess up on the field graphics or other aspects of the game.

This was said by Ian a few years ago.

Pretty much right. If they were to shrink the ball to the proper size, it would totally destroy the animation system.

Re: ball spiral and physics

The size doesnt bother me so much as the bounces do.

Its wayyy to easy to get a favorable bounce. Like if your punting to the other team, you can pull up on the aiming arrow which will almost always cause the ball to bounce backwards when punting. You can literally stick it on the 4 yard line if you're close enough.

Bounces on punting needs to be way more random. Like an oblong object hitting the ground would in real life.

Agreed about the physics. Baseball and hockey added in proper ball/puck physics respectfully, so why not Madden?
