Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

Also how about some online choices in what we want to wear in the game instead of just the home and away jersey's. I get tired of seeing the same old jersey's all the time.

I like the wearing the throwbacks every now and then and if you add the different color helmets with the different color jersey's then it will just make the range of what you wear that much better...

Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

Iam sure you are a good player Deerville, so i have to ask what you do when you run with the barbarion? when I play against the Cowboys I can hardly ever stop him. I know the 49ers are bad, but I also use the Patriots... then again the Pats couldn't tackle him in real life either... hrmm.

The greatest 2 yard run I have even sceen.

I assume you lay off he sprint button. I just recomend using the right thumb stick and button mash the spin and stiff arm butons to break away from tacklers that are wraping you up. I have noticed that while I am being drug down from the side or behind that if I THEN hit and hold sprint sometimes my player will do the "roger Craig" adn highstep/break away from the tackle.

I juke em lol Hes killer with the juke, maybe my timing on the truck stick is off. But i usually just juke, ive trained him to where he has 96 SPD or something now so hes alot better at just outrunning people.

I love that run btw i just wish the Cowboys would have won. I watch that vid and im like wow but we lost so all the good feelings go away. lol

What you need to do and i know this b/c i play the cowboys alot online, so get in the trenches and try to get penatration.

Even though he's a good banger when it comes to contact he ain't the fastest back in the world so try to slow him down by making him bounce to the outside to slow him up a bit but if he gets past your lineman then your linebackers better get ready, b/c you usually need more than one if he's coming right at you. So try and get to him before he turns up field.

Your lineman need to be doing some work for this to work though b/c if you let the O lineman push your line man out the way for him to go staight up the middle then barber is not going to slow down in terms of just knocking your A double S out of the way.

Please Concentrate on the Players Legs, Calf and Quads. So Larger Players show it on their Legs too.

P.S Everybody is not Diesel in the NFL, You can be 300lbs and not have Crazy Muscle's everywhere

Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

I, like Kane, am willing to do the entire Raiders roster but I really dont want it to be lost in this thread if Mike wants to see it.

Yeah this last page right here is getting quite a bit off topic.

I will be getting to the cowboys defense here pretty soon along with the o-line.

Yeah, sorry about the off topic KANE, it's easy to do when talking Madden.

A lot of the equipment doesn't bother me while playign the game with the exceptions of the prior lack of towels, and the colored visors that stand out at a distance. colored gloves and cleats bother me as well when I see the Seahawks *a rival* and use the Patriots. facemasks don't bother me a great deal with the excpetion of L.T. and GLARING mistakes. If I recall Manning in 08 had the right helmet but an almost full cage facemask when his is REALLY small an un-obstructive. In the 08 player introductions you would see the POOR facemask assignments and it bothered me.

how can you get Manning, Moss, and others wrong? These are the top stars inthe sport! If you can't get the most recogniseable players correct [like big ben now] how can we trust the lesser players are correct?

P.S. I DID see the post where they fixed Ben, i just was using him as an example of how we as a community had to say something, otherwise it would have shipped that way.

Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

This is based off of the Final Roster update for Madden 09... Everything will be referred to as it is in Madden. I will only be posting things that NEED to be changed, if it is already correct than I won't mention it.

In 2010 will the Raider's team color be black for home and white for away? Most of the Raider players wear their equipment that way. TC will refer to this. With the addition of secondary colors that is what Silver should be. So when editing a player I hope to be able to Choose Black, White, TC (Black for Home Games, White for Away) or Silver (Secondary TC).

**Underlined Players are IMO the ones that need to be addressed the most.**

Oakland Raiders Equipment Errors

QB JaMarcus Russell: Helmet Type: Standard, Face Mask: 3 Bar RB, Arm Sleeves: Full Sleeve TC (for Cold/Rainy games only), Right Elbow: Shooter's Sleeve (hopefully this will be added, Im referring to the same type of sleeve Allen Iverson wears in the NBA, except his is shorter and more just on the elbow. If this isn't added a TC rubber pad may work..) Left and Right Wrists: Wristband TC.
Other notes: Captain Patch and Hand Towel. He also wears Jordan's (cleats) but I dont expect them to be in the game

RB Justin Fargas: Helmet Type:Standard, Left and Right Elbows: Med. Band TC.

RB Darren McFadden: Helmet Type: Standard, Face Mask: 3 Bar RB, Thigh Pads: Large, Knee Pads: Small. Other Notes: I saw someone pointed out that he has "Sleeves: Sleeveless" and I wouldn't go that far, his are somewhere in the middle, longer than Sleeveless and shorter than Standard. A lot of the players on this team are that way.

RB Michael Bush: Looks good.

FB Oren O'neil: Looks good, but hopefully Dreadlocks and the Issue where the Revolution face masks are too far from the player's face will be fixed.

FB Luke Lawton: Helmet Type: Standard 2, Face Mask: 3 Bar RB, Left Elbow: Thin Band TC, Right Elbow: Padding Black. Other Notes: Hand Towel.

WR Javon Walker: Left and Right Hand: Solid Black. (Just Realized I left off gloves on everyone above Javon. I'll prolly wait until we hear more about accessories before I go back and try to match gloves that may not even be in the game)

WR Johnnie Lee Higgins: Helmet Type: Standard 2, Face Mask: 2 Bar. Other Notes: Remove Thin White Bands from his elbows.

WR Chaz Schilens: Helmet Type: Standard, Face Mask: 2 Bar. Other Notes: Not consistent with what he wears, most recently Eye Black and Hand Towel.

WR Arman Shields: Helmet Type: Standard, Face Mask: 2 Bar Single. Other Notes: His number is Currently #14.

TE Zach Miller: Left and Right Elbow: Med. Band Black. Other Notes: Remove: Arm Sleeves: Full Sleeve White, and Left and Right Wrist: Taped Wrists Normal.

TE Tony Stewart: Face Mask: 3 Bar RB.

Im stopping here, If Mr. Young wants me to continue I'll post the rest tomorrow.

Andrew Walter
Louis Rankin
Justin Griffith (no longer with the Team)
Ron Curry (no longer with the Team)
Ashley Lelie (Status with the Team's future is uncertain)
Drew Carter (Status with the Team's future is uncertain)

Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

Post full body pictures with your fixes for proof just so they can get an idea of players builds as well.

[c dizzy m baby]

Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

I'll go back and Edit Pics in if needed, I was just focusing on Equipment in that post, and planned to address body type errors in another post.

So M.Y. if adding the Pictures in helps you let me know, and I'll get on that tomorrow.

Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

I just hope Troy Polamalu has hair that actually looks like his hair flowing from the back of his helmet.

I noticed your remark on the sleeveless thing on Mcfadden, I pointed this out in my first post, it seems all the runningbacks and some recievers have not quite the sleeveless option in the game but more so a tapered sleeve. The sleeveless option in the game is best suited for offensive and deffensive linemen.

Re: Madden NFL 10: Tuning Individual Characters

I saw this thread after I PM'ed you but I'll add it here too.

My first guy to address is Robert Gallery. He is a great athlete, and in the game he is not represented well in my opinion, he is much too fat and not slim enough. His legs also seem much too fat in Madden.





Also Im not sure if this is your department, but please note how close the Revolution facemask is to his face in the first picture, while in the game it comes out too much and looks like a bubble around his head. If you could somehow fix that I'd greatly appreciate it.

The other guy that may need a look is Tommy Kelly. When I play with him he looks way too big, but then when I sat down and looked at the pictures of this past season he was a bit bigger. Maybe it was either him moving to DT or the fact that he started the season out of shape from his knee injury, but he was definitely bigger in 2008. I anticipate him being more similar to his previous form with a full offseason conditioning program. Here are some pictures, and I'll let you decide and do what you do best. In the game right now he looks like the first picture.
