Are Team Specific Entrances not making the transition to Madden 13?

In Madden 12 we had team specific entrances which were cool with the various camera views. Is this not going to be in Madden 13?

All the animations are still there, it seems. I've seen team entrance shots during the halftime video package.

The pre-game presentation is more of a dedicated broadcast direction this year, and as such the team entrances don't appear to be readily visible there. I assume that the team entrances could still appear in big games (division championship, Super Bowl), but I obviously don't know either way.

Thanks, I guess I will assume they have been taken out too.

I actually noticed this as well. I think that if they are only used every now and then they won't feel as boring as they would every single game. I know in the demo before a game at candlestick, the blimp view showed the stadium, and I could see the team specific entrance was taking place.

That's not at all what I said. I said that team entrances appear to still be there, I've seen them play in clips during the halftime break video presentation. In that sense, the assets are still there and they are still presented to the player in some capacity.

It's clear that EA has gone for a more broadcast-oriented presentation this year, and as such the team entrances presented without commentary appear to no longer be shown during the game start up. But again, they don't appear to have been taken out.

Short answer: yes, team entrances are still in the game. No, they are not presented up-front as they were in Madden NFL 12.

I apologize if this comes across as a bit crotchety, I just want to make sure what I said isn't misinterpreted.

No issues my friend ;-)

I understand what you are saying.
