You can add WR/CB interaction to the list as well.

"I was hitting the button!"

I've heard and said that so many times over the years. If those days are behind us, that would be awesome.

Fantastic blog, Ian! The Madden 10 team is taking on gameplay-related issues with the fervor of true football fans.

This kind of improvement makes me downright giddy. It's not about a gimmick. It's about football.

Thank you! Keep up the great work!

The updates keep getting better and better. I know one thing, my man Peyton Manning better be in the high 90's for the play action rating. He's among the leagues best, if not the best.

I just love this part, " Good QB's will put the ball where only their receiver can get it, and bad QB's, well, they'll at least try to do that."

I felt that even with QB's like P. Manning, the ball wouldn't always go where you intended to put it. For example, I might try to lob the ball over a LB or DB's head and they get up like they all have 40 inch verticals and either knock down the ball, or get the INT the majority of the time. We all know that ain't NFL football.

Good stuff. Ian, so my question is, if layered blending is what you are using to overcome the suction sack, then can you also use it in overcoming suction blocking and tackling? Can't the blending be used to have a defender while being blocked, keep one arm free and reach out and grab a runner as he is going by?

Re: New Madden NFL 10 blog post - QB improvements

I also have a question:

In regards to the new accuracy ratings, what is the deciding factor in whether the pass is deep, medium, or short ? For example- how many yards downfileld must the WR be for the deep accuracy to take effect, what is the range for the the medium and short accuracy, ect. ect.

I'm sure it's not based on the routes, right ? Because on a deep route, you can throw the ball immediately and the pass would, in affect, still be a short-medium pass.

I pray for this...

Good to hear about the new tech & ratings.

Will there be a new Adjustment to Ball rating for WRs?

And I echo LBzrule's questions.

Re: New Madden NFL 10 blog post - QB improvements

In terms of tackling think of situations like this. This should be where a guy can still make a tackle even though he gets stiff armed. Unless that is just animation work. A guy gets stiff armed but as he is getting pushed away, he grabs the runners arm and attempts to bring him down that way.

Ian, one thing that was mentioned that isn't getting too much comments here is the accuracy hit that QB's will take when on the run. Please Please Please for the love of whichever god u serve do something about this. i'm sure i'm not alone when i say i'm tired of players that take off out of the pocket as soon as the ball is snapped and still can hit a receiver 50 yards down the field while running at full speed. NFL QB's only scamble when they have to and THEY ALL take an accuracy hit. A significant one at that.

Re: New Madden NFL 10 blog post - QB improvements

This is some of the best news Ive heard from madden since...

I dont know. But knowing this has me real excited. If they can implement this well and keep the gameplay much like it was PLUS make franchise mode fun again then Im gonna be a seriously happey camper next year. I might end up standing in line somwhere again and I havent done that in years.

My only dissapontment is that they didnt implement some intangible elements to QB play like consistency and leadership.

O well i still love what they have added.

Just curious...How would you translate leadership to gameplay mechanics? How would that be implemented? Sounds interesting nonetheless.
