Re: [EXCLUSIVE] Madden NFL 10 News!

Pretty pumped for the announcement tonight... besides MLB The Show my sports gaming career is slowly dwindling. I'm really hoping Ian and his team can revive football gaming... and it all starts tonight!

I think it's funny that Ian's post has 10,037 views 240 posts and then the big announcement about the rules change has 209 views and 3 posts... lol. I guess we know who has all the stroke around here huh Ian?

This thread also has a lot more linkbacks than the Rules thread.

Doesn't mean the rules thread isn't as important.

Amything Ian has to say regarding Madden info is more important then anything else on this forum... As long as it is good news..

A good sign with all the rapid discloser. When MLB 2K9 decided not to show anything of the new game, you just knew the problems weren't fixed from last year, but Madden seems to be more than willing to let us see what they're doing.

And on that note, please, please fix the game. Last year's game became unplayable. It would freeze after just about every game, and I sometimes had to play games three or four times before one would finish. I stopped playing it a long time ago because it just became unplayable.

As opposed to the year before when it was litterally unplayable - When the game wouldn't play because their weren't enough players. Two or three years into the franchises, the games would just refuse to begin because the other teams didn't have enough players. It was a nightmare.

Not impressed and its hard to believe that we will see the kind of throw Ben made to Holmes to win the game sense Madden has 2 passes a Bullet and high Lob. Both would be picked or batted down. Show me precision passing and ill be impressed and care.

But how effective could precision passing be if defenders were able to react to the pass no matter where they were looking?

As Ian stated in just another thread, they will start discussing features around draft time. They will make weekly announcements regarding technical issues until then.

Both Ian and Phil stated this before the announcement. If you want to hear about features only, you'll need to wait till April.

Look like they finally got some ballers. looking at the people praise here about this new team ,looks like madden 10 might be good but im not giving alot of praise until i see it. Heopfeully i see some foot planting in this game like NFL 2k5 had. And please get rid of the madden IQ and the rewind feature and fix the gameplay and yall will do just fine.

Re: [EXCLUSIVE] Madden NFL 10 News!

Agreed, the Madden IQ is such Bull. Why should the game get harder if my team has a better offensive line and running back than the Def. Why should it get easier if my O-line and RB suck and the defense is great. Their needs to be emphasis on how teams play overall not just how a person does. Of course the Lions aren't gonna have a great day offensively against the Ravens.

Re: [EXCLUSIVE] Madden NFL 10 News!

This announcemnet has a chance to re-shape alot of what we dont like about Madden in terms of AI. Sure its not this bright, glamorous announcement like hand towels, but i think this could end up making the CPU play to their ratings and play more realistically

Re: [EXCLUSIVE] Madden NFL 10 News!

I liked the announcement it looks like the sort of thing true fans of the NFL are looking for an CB play has been an issue in all football games for a long time now so the idea of players tracking the ball properly is quite a good one. Obviously, the value of this sort of technology is only there if it is correctly implemented.

The most positive thing about this is the fact that it shows you guys actually care about the fans and value input so from that point of view it is a highly positive move. I think EA must recognize the flaws in the last few editions of Madden and I think it is a highly positive thing that people are making an active effort to rectify the problems.
