The QBs need a bit more.. bounce in their drop back.

[Echopax]

The animation is still far superior to what we've seen in previous years, but I think every animation I've seen so far lacks bounce after they plant their back foot. It kind of seems like they just stop instantly.

At around 0:53 seconds.

The animation is nice, but the QB never really bounces for leverage and mobility as the he plants.

Take a look at a Jay Cutler drop back.

As you can see, he bounces for leverage at the end of his drop back.

Ya agree. For years all it seems when a QB drop backs and stop and stands there and throw the ball. You never see them moving their feet and bouncing around why trying to looking for a WR to throw to. That is something that would nice to see happen in madden. The QB likes almost like a statue once he drops back and stop. I would to the QB bouncing and moving his body around while searching for a WR. This would bea good for the next madden.

i totally agree with both of you... if you played apf2k8 the qb bounces around like that in the pocket and the dropback
they need to fix this for next years madden...

Well bro I hate to bust your buble. But there is not enough time to do that this year. It's something that would have to be addressed in madden 11.

eactly. its been yrs and this has not changed. I was very excited about this gm but after playing all-pro over the last week or two, its not exciting because the major announcement was pro tak where 100 guys pile up ontop of each other( this is not exciting to me), and the qb mechanics are still the same. no qb in the nfl throws like the madden qb throws and most of the qb's throw the same. i don't know what to think anymore man.

Wow those videos look great, the momentum and physics of 2K8 was great.
It was defiantly one of my favorite games.

Re: The QBs need a bit more.. bounce in their drop back.

I dont know if anyone mentioned this, but for me it was the first time seeing the actual revo speed facemask(like the one Percy Harvin and Brian Orakpo wear) in the game. I cant tell which player it is, but in the first video posted, go to around 1:06-1:08 and a redskins players jumping into the pileup seems to be wearing it.....sweet!!!

There are signature throwing styles for 32 quarterbacks so I don't know where you got that opinion from.

Just like the running animation, this is also very important.
