Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

Re: Tuning Individual Characters

Chicago Bears Indvidual Characters/Team need changes:
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)
6)

1) Mike Brown in Madden 09 has dark skin, and in real life it is much lighter.
2) Kyle Orton has never worn "tight" sleeves. He always wears them lose.
3) Oline Kruetz is also the wrong shade, he is to dark in Madden 09.
4) Urlacher's shoulders are too wide in my opinion.And . you guys don't have his tattoo
5) The Bears default away uniform should be all white. They wore that combination all year during away games.
6) The Bears defense does not wear sleeves in the cold, AT ALL. The coldest game EVER in soldier field (as pictured in number 6) shows two players not wearing sleeves. The players make a big deal out of it, and in franchise when its cold in madden 09 a lot of players are wearing sleeves.

Lol, send EA your Bears themed bedsheets for the proper alterations.

My biggest issue with that post is not having the all whites.

I think Jay Culter (Denver Broncos) is wayyy too skinny in Madden 09. In reality Jay is solid and around 230 or 240 pounds ..

one thing that bothers me is the, way the o-line and the qb always come out of a huddle and walk back to the line of scrimmage like robots. i remember that in 2k5 they walked more casually and also the lineman weren't always standing in a perfect stance but sometimes were a little off, like in reality.

i'd also like to finally see tattoos, they've been in the nba games for while why not in madden and since alot of nfl players are tattoed they should be in the game and their should be a tattoo option for created players.

This is slightly off topic, but I think half sleeves should be added to the game. Not from the bottom, but the top. Like.. short sleeve underarmor. Jason Campbell wears it, Matt Ryan, Matt Hasselbeck has. The list goes on. Some other positions wear it as well. I feel like it would add a lot of realism.

As far as players, Laron Landry does not look like him at all in the face. Also, Chris Cooley and Laron's helmets are wrong. CC has a revo in the game, but in real life he has one of those new helmets (which better be in the game this year). LL has a revo in the game as well, but he wears a different one in real life (the one with the slanted ear holes).

Another side note, adding colored shoes would add a lot to the game. Obviously I'm a skins fan, and the skins regularly wear gold shoes. Players I know who do it are Carlos Rogers (who may not even be on the team come next season), CP, Moss and Rocky McIntosh.

Finally, I think you guys must not spend time on rookie faces (which is understandable), but Malcolm Kelly, Devin Thomas, Fred Davis and Chris Horton all look very generic. Hopefully you'll spend some time on fixing the rookie faces.

As you can see, Tom Brady always has those blue half sleeves. It's almost his trademark these days. He also always wears a towel in fair weather and a fannypack in cold weather. Not to mention he has loose sleeves. As far as his arms go, he does wear that QB wristband on his left arm, but on his right arm he wears a normal white wristband halfway up his forearm. It's not on his wrist like you have it in the game and not quite on his elbow. It's in between.


I can't find a screenshot of him in the game, but I know Kevin Faulk looks way too skinny. He may be short and he may be a scatback, but he's actually pretty stocky looking in real life. I mean, look at this picture of him below. You would almost think he was a power back if you didn't know who he was.

Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

This week we are starting to go through the rosters and tune each individual player's body to match their real life counter part.

I know as a fan when one of your favorite players is wrong it can take you out of the experience.

So the question to you is: Which players need the most work? Please give specifics. On the flip side are there any players you wouldn't touch?

Thanks as always,

Mike Y

It would be great if there was a way in game to edit the toon in game pic of coaches as well. I've found when coaches are fired and hired its tough even using an editor to get the right pics in place. I'd also like to see a better look on those cartoon in game hats and headsets on the coaches.

Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

PLEASE GIVE THE PATRIOTS PLAYERS AN OPTION FOR RED GLOVES!



They look so sick. More players wear them as well. Such as Tedy Bruschi, Ellis Hobbs, Rodney Harrison, Sammy Morris, Matthew Slater, and Ben Watson!

Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

Whats with Anquan boldins size? He is way bigger in real life.
He's about a T.O size.
even in madden T.O is small.

so check out these imgaes and look at what i mean.

1st image) Anquans real life pic.

2nd image) Madden image


NOW FOR T.O


1st image) real life


2nd image) now for his madden photo

a bit slim eh??

now

comment for 1st image.
"As you can see here anquan boldins Upper body area Is stocky,
and in his Lower body he has fairly huge legs....
COMMENT FOR 2ND IMAGE.
now check this out in this madden 09 photo his upper body is slimmer as if he's been on the biggest loser or somethin. Just like every other WR his lower body is small. His legs as you can see in the first image his legs look chunkier than in the second image, fix this please.

COMMENT FOR 3RD IMAGE

3rd of all, look at T.O's size in this image, about 220 to 226 pounds of muscle and man. You can see that his arm size is pretty big too.

COMMENT FOR 4TH IMAGE

4th and finally, T.O looks small. even in the presnap he looks small and wheres his signature stance? This guy looks awkwardly huge on the field he's kind of a beast receiver. lower body and upper body are both slim... as if he's a santonio holmes or somethin. Sorry but the guy hat designs the players, does he get a good look at some images???

Anyways thats all 4 now keep it real MIKE Y
Hopin madden 10 gonna be a hit and not a flop.
Peace.

Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

I totally would love the QBs to have different throwing motions cause Guys like Romo Big Ben and Warner have funky Throwing mechanics and Running Styles too, Like Marion Barbers Little hop thing he does. Stuff like that.

[Derrville]

Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

Oh! and Michael Young, some Teams DON'T wear the "C" patch on their Jerseys. Can you guys please look into That? Like I know Dallas Cowboys the Eagles and a few others wear "C"-less jerseys and its really distracting and took away from the experience sense i play with a "C"-LESS team.

I couldnt push for this more. Not any single quarterback has the same motion, and the crappy one they have doesnt even look realistic. Not being able to see Cutler drop the ball down in his throwing motion in madden really disapoints me. Come on, if baseball can have over 600+ player tied animations, why cant football?
