Re: New Blog and Picture!!

I guess I'm one of the few who actually loved Madden 09 (I admit about 20 hours of roster rating mods needed - and I shouldnt have too!)

The screenshot looks great, very excited about 2010!

As long as Ian and company can fix the gameplay issues (better CPU running, sliders, OL/DL , etc), and add some of the other requests from our OS members, for me an ESPN style presentation like NFL2k5, Madden 2010 will be the next great standard for Video Football.

Re: New Blog and Picture!!

I'm not trying to sound biased...

But with the whole "Fight for every yard" statement, I was thinking maybe Brandon Jacobs. In the league right now, he's the epitome of power backs and grinding out the extra yards.

I can't picture him as a cover athlete though.

Good call, but I've had another thought.

If you take 'fight for every yard' literally then you've got to look at the trenches. That's where the real fighting takes place.

If it turns out to be a lineman on the cover then this could be very significant indeed, indicating a dramatic and overhauled improvement of the line play.

Just dreaming I think, but sometimes dreams come true.

Re: New Blog and Picture!!

The depth of field blur effects (it's an effect datgummit, lol) really makes a big difference. I'd been saying how this would help in my wishlist series and it's great to see it being put to good use. For some reason it just adds an extra layer of realism that makes you think you're looking at a real-world shot.

But what I'm hoping for is that we have auto-replays at this camera level and that the effects shown here also show up in those auto-replays. Not that having it in user replays will be bad, but having it in auto-replay will certainly add to the overall presentation in my opinion.

If they have a replay saving system like NCAA basketball, NBA live, NHL. We would be set. create your own camera angles and save

Great point! Honestly I hardly ever use user-replay, but auto-replay in-game would be a really nice presentation effect

The WR looks to be running with a new animation. Looks more realistic.

Re: New Blog and Picture!!

You know, in Madden Moments for 09, they had specific team endzones for the Patriots Vs. The Giants.

I wonder if this shot is a Madden Moment? Hmmmmm...

I thought about that also. But I thought that'd be silly...
An OL was on the Madden 09 Spanish version

Nope, it isn't.

The coach is wearing a watch and some players on the sidelines have their helmets off. the ones that are sitting on the bench.

LOL

That might be a good guess. I hope so, sorta. Outside of Franchise mode (which needs to be fixed WAY too much), there's no other modes worth playing. Not a big fan of online because of all the cheaters.


.... Nevermind the Madden Moment idea haha.

Re: New Blog and Picture!!

I already see a glaring error in that shot.

Ben's O-line forming a pocket and protecting him? Unrealistic.

/yes im joking :wink:

Lol.

Re: New Blog and Picture!!

wow this looks amazing

with each new update and now this, it makes even harder to play 09 right now

Re: New Blog and Picture!!

Still 2 more new things that haven't been mentioned...

These are quite small details...you'll have to get your super critical eyes out. I never thought there was a shortage of those around here?

it's probably using the Texture Compositor. same thing that the NCAA team used to combine the art files together to get the team-specific endzones for bowl games, etc...

most likely same tech was used to get the super bowl patches on the jerseys.

I think it would be a real statement of intent buy putting a DL or OL on the cover.

To me, it would say...goodbye to the fancy flashy window dressing Madden experience with no substance and hello to the new gritty realistic sim Madden.

Not that having an offensive superstar is a bad thing but just musing.
