What is your opinion on Player Builds in Madden

[Big FN Deal]

I don't really pay a lot of direct attention to this but I would probably notice if something is terribly off. I selected "pretty good but needs more work" because even though I haven't seen a specific problem that I can recall, I am sure there all not "spot on..".

i think the players look alot better in 12 then they did 11 they looked like lil twigs for players esp peyton hillis u can tell huge difference between 11 and 12 with him.

I voted for an overhaul. Everyone in 12 is JACKED. A lot of people look absolutely nothing like their in-game portrayals. I use the Ravens a lot, and this team particularly borhers me. I'm not saying Joe Flacco is a handsome man by any means, but on the game he looks like a mentally disabled caveman. Same thing with John Harbaugh. He actually is a good looking man in real life, but on the game he looks incredibly similar to Louie Anderson in the cartoon show he had, with black hair. I've noticed that the quarterbacks look stoned out of their minds in the huddle. The way they look around the huddle wide-eyed, with their eyes constantly shifting is incredibly disturbing.

Can't vote as I don't own the game and haven't played in who knows how long. I was just curious about what others thought.

Also, though proportions may need work, graphics are never Madden's problem. In fact, Madden usually has some of the best graphics in sports gaming. Someone let me know when we can vote on animations.

There's no option for those of us that don't care about the player models.

Hey... We exist too. There are guys who don't care if someone's gut is the same size in the game as in real life. There is no option for not caring...

Acknowledging that there is no option that fits the opinions of players that might be interested on commenting on the thread is adding something to the thread that the OP (you in this case) may not have considered when the thread was created.

Some of us wouldn't care if the player models didn't look like human beings. If they looked like giant barrels, I'd still play the game with the same fervor I play with now.

Please consider this next time you add options to a poll. We might respond to say - "you left us out!"

Maybe a "Good Enough" option would've been appropriate. That's how I feel about it. Whether they need work or not, I think they're fine. From my time here, the graphical complaints have been way down on the priority list for most.

Or maybe a "There are better ways to improve the likeness of players" option. That's how I feel about it as well. The sport of football requires more movement than most sports because of the physical contact between players. Not many sports have constant interaction between 3+ players. IMO, EA has not prioritized their time to address that difference. The animations are severely limited and there are very little signature animations in the game. From the views most of us play from, animations would go much further than player builds, especially since animations are so closely related to AI.
