The second play, the run with DeAngelo Williams looked HORRIBLE. nobody should be able to guide a running back THAT easily and open. it looked so fake. I hope this is a much earlier build than the Ravens/Steelers. That looked nice.

If you don't have anything constructive to say about the video (positive or negative) then don't say it. You will be banned.

Yeah, its an alpha build. The Ravens v. Steelers is beta from E3.

Lovin' the stadium music. Hopefully it doesn't get to repetitive.

Also didn't like the very last play when the defender had a chance to get make a play for the ball and just did nothing when it was up in the air. This is why madden need A LOT more player awareness. Hopefully plays like that doesn't happen on a consistent basis.

Looks a lot better than the E3 videos now that the quality is good. The running looks a whole lot smoother, the stadium seems to show more, and it just seems like it's a less twitchy game than 10.

First time I have seen an actual difference in running animations

The foot plant by Gore on his cut back actually impressed me! Hopefully it is even crisper in the final build. I can handle a lot of issues but game play is the one thing that will make me buy the game!

Noticed 5 new additions to Bank of America Stadium that I specifically pointed out to Ian last year that were 3-4 years outdated. He told me he would look into them, and he came through! Panther logos on the field, one large screen on the scoreboards, LED banners on both sides, BofA logos on the corners above the lower level seating, and shorter tunnels with seats behind them. Awesome. All these things add up to a more authentic experience being a Panther's fan. Hopefully all of the stadiums got some much needed attention to detail.

the pro-tec is still horrible. The fight for the fumble is still in the game, it needs to be taken out, because a player can be screwed out of a possesion, when it was obvious his player recovered the ball, and no fight should have occured. There is still random shifting from a deflection to a tackle when defending passes that is not possible. Did not see one improvement from last year to this year, they gotta a lot of work to do.

You can turn fight for the fumble off.

And you're seriously blind if you didn't see ONE improvement.

I agree Hitman. I actually was impressed with a few things there. I did see some semblance of a pocket on a few of the pass plays where the DEs got up field. Should happen more often, but not bad. The animations looked better, not sure if that was due to the game speed. I still don't like the ability to cut on a dime, but the foot planting was much better. One thing that needs to be adjusted is how the QBs can throw perfect rockets when they are getting hit. I was playing APF tonight and I got hit from behind as I was throwing it and the ball popped up in the air and was caught by a defensive lineman. It was awesome. The point the QB gets hit needs to affect the trajectory of the ball if he is hit as he throws, just like in APF. That would really add to the realism.

Overall, being one of Madden's harshest critcs, I will say not too bad looking. I do see a lot of improvements.

If u turn it off, it just has the computer fight for u, and it doesnt change wat i said at all. What improvement did u see?

Thanks for clearing that up, I'm not too keen on the "dev speak"
