Madden NFL 25 Next Gen Video - IGNITE Technology & Next-Gen Visuals (QJB)

[dat boi Q]

I told u guys a while ago. Next gen madden was using the same engine from cg.
Ignite engine was just getting slapped on top of it. They can say whatever the hell they want but if they don't change that engine first this game will will never be good.

If the OL/DL was the only thing built from the ground up... wouldn't interactions have no similarities to past games? I'm still seeing alot of the same issues. I don't buy that they are truly re-writing certain areas.

BINGO, This guy gets it.

You are 100 percent correct, wonder if they will change the engine early or mid-cycle. Wonder if they are working on a new engine now? because if not, NFL gaming is doomed for another 8-9 years if EA continues to hold the exclusive license. Because with current engine it is IMPOSSIBLE to make a sim, realistic playing, and moving football game.

We're tired of excuses, 3 year plans and promises of next year. Screw that. If 2K can make APF 2K8 in one dev cycle, and that game is still better than madden 25 next gen on the field, there is no excuse in the world that anyone can give.

You thought they made 2k8 in one dev cycle???? They made it in 3 dev cycles and it was for the most part a port of 2k5. Do you guys realize that the same guys making nfl and nba 2k back in early 2000s, STILL are the lead guys for NBA 2k next gen. You can't overlook that, they've had the same guys making their game with the same direction for over ten years. It's no wonder they have a good game.

We've never had former football guys be the leadership team for a football video game like this. These guys know football they don't have to know about Superstar or my player, they know the X's and O's of the game of football.

I know these guys probably have good intentions on making a realistic sim football game but with the current engine its impossible; and I don't think the technical expertise to do so. I feel bad for Rex, Cam, and Clint because I believe they really do want to make a good football game but they don't have the tools or resources to do so. So they have to work with what they have, EA wants to them to make gold out of grass.

Uhh... Just because 2k8 came out 3 years after 2k5 doesn't mean they took all those years developing it... Do you really believe they took 3 cycles on that game?... If they had taken that much time there would have been WAY more depth than there was. Starting with multiple seasons... You are just reaching now...

Edit: Even if it was a port it was at least a port of a very good game. A port of Madden is bad because the game is broken in so many ways. It's not even close.

Lol.

You should be a defense lawyer the way you shovel BS.. "It's no wonder they have a good game." So Madden's problem the last 10 years is that they didnt keep the team together! Damn!

Trying to figure out what's more annoying; the game being shown, or the commentator gettin' excited over hair and helmets.

Honestly, EA, what have you been up to the last couple of years?
