Staff Roundtable: Madden NFL 12 Demo Impressions

[Smallzin]

The demo feels like a Re-made combo of 07 to 09

The demo impressed me a lot.

+ The OL is smarter than it was in the previous versions of madden.
+ Draw plays are now possible (i really hate to be "sucked" by de D-Line every time i run a draw play).
+ I didn't see the "break tackle festival" i saw in the previous maddens.
+ Presentation looks great.
+ A 35 yd Field Goal attempt is no longer equal to put 3 pts on the scoreboard.
+ The passing game is now better. You can't put the ball exactly where you want.
+ Tackles are so omuch better now.

- Pump fake = sack
- Halftime still lacks a player comparison or something.
- Seems like they removed the player chatter during the game.
- The default game speed is ridiculous. I will play on slow or very slow speed, i'm still trying to decide what is better.
- Receivers can't adapt the route to the coverage.

Put the game speed on slow and you can even turn the threshold down to 35, and it plays at a perfect speed (with or without the threshold being lowered).

But that serves NO PURPOSE while ur playin ONLINE!!!!!

I see your point, but it does serve a purpose with online communities.
