Auto Sprint vs. Button

[Tengo Juego]

Hard to decide right now. I hope the demo allows us to enable/disable sprint.

can't vote on something i havent tried yet. Chances are i'll still use the trigger because i want to have control over when my guy sprints and doesnt sprint rather than relying on a rating or the AI to decide. But not voting since i havent tried the auto sprint yet.

With locomotion a player needing to slow down before making moves I would imagine this will be smoother without a sprint button. In addition to the fact that the CPU never seems to sprint it should even out the playing field because these games are to easy already. And this gives them an extra button to use for something else more valuable.

they didnt kill it altogether they just made auto-sprint the default now. In Madden auto-sprint is the default but you have the option to go back to the trigger sprint if you'd like while NCAA has the trigger sprint as the default and you can choose to go to auto-sprint if you'd like. Ratings are still a factor for each method.

my understanding is that it is based off player ratings, not how far you push the analog stick.

This is the way I understood it too. It could be both. And it's largely why I lean towards using auto-sprint.

The sprint button should have been obsolete as soon as analog sticks were introduced to controllers. The only need for the sprint button originally was to give a player variant speeds because of the lack of sensitivity on the D-pad.

1. analog does nothing with sprint from everything I have read.
2. the cpu will decide for you when your player will sprint.
3. never used it before so it's impossible to say how it will workout.
4. I'm gonna try it for sure though.

I'll just use the button..I dont see myself liking auto sprint.

I guess I had a different version of it in my head, the way auto sprint should work. lol It makes no sense for the cpu to decide when I do & do not sprint. I should all be based on how far the stick is pushed. That would give developers another action button(R2).
