Re: Madden NFL 10: Wildcat blog photo reveals another gameplay aspect

Question is, has EA taking this a step further? Can I hit a Ref with the ball if he is in the way? DO they have a duck animation if the ball is coming at them?

I'd expect for the duck animation to be there, but I would be pleasantly surprised if (VERY rarely) I clocked one in the head that was a little too slow to react even if it sometimes resulted in an INT... it would just be neat to see.

From the original blog:

Unlike last-gen which only had 5, we were able to get all 7 referees in to Madden NFL 10 with AI and a full suite of avoidance (and collision) animations.

i think thats fn awsome but it could be annoying at the same time.... hey but we want realism correct? well there its is guys.... hey at least when your feeling angry cause the ref made a bad call like they usually do.. you can take it out on them now haha.

Another Observation:


Notice Browns stance as hes in the gun.....his left leg looks too be positioned slighty further back then his right.....Little details like that will go a long way

I hope other Qbs in the gun have that position before the snap, and that its not exclusive to the WildCat

It would be cool if they were signature styles for stuff like that.

If the Browns trade Brady Quinn I am moving Cribbs to QB. Derek Anderson is dead to me.

Lol, probably not a bad idea.

I got a chance to run the Wildcat in the Alpha... It was pretty nice.

Cool. How many plays were there? I count about 5 or 6 that Miami actually ran.

Could you just imagine if Mike Vick came back to the NFL and was put in a wild cat offense.. I think that would be the only place to put him.. insanity...

Yeah, I think that will happen.

I can't imagine too many teams are going to have a HB with good enough THP and THA to actually make them worth it...

Cribbs, McFadden, Brown, Randel El and LT are the ones that come to mind.

I purposely tried to "break it" but couldn't so that was a good sign. But since it was an Alpha it's unknown as to how tweaks after that may or may not have an effect.

Cool. Might shut up some of the people whining that this will be cheese.

The wildcat was in NCAA games. They'll probably be the same in Madden.

edit- actually that was the option. Somewhat similar though.

Not really similar at all lol. Maybe similar to what Florida do with Tebow.

i just hope the refs are intelligent enough so they stay out of the way on the vast majority of downs.

refs definitely get knocked over, but it's really amazing how rarely it happens considering the chaos on the field from play to play.

it will become incredibly frustrating if they are frequently infuencing the outcome of the game.

I don't care about the ref, guys tell me whether i'll collide with other players. 2k5 had it is one thing madden has still not picked up on yet. If it is an indication and is being included then good stuff, otherwise i dont care if the ref falls down.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Blog: A Sneak Peek at the Wildcat w/ Screenshots

Don't even go there, I got burned already for mentioning it. Apparently its not ok to talk about it. Some people actually think the developers are ALL working on the same thing so we can either have decent gameplay or accessoires and detailed player models.

Most already know I make a mention of it every know and then (I would still be posting that picture showing colored cleats if it wasn't going to lead to an infraction...).

I really could care less if people don't wanna hear it. It's a part of football, it's a part of individuality, and I don't really care if it leads to me getting into a debate. Point blank it should be in the game. That and sock lengths but others handle that. lol

I hope the refs just make intelligent calls... Is that too much to ask?

WOW madden is really beginning to look like sundays, like others have pointed out the logo on the helmet needs to be smaller and the numbers larger, i just hope that we get great presentation with close ups on the players to take advantage of the graphics rather then having to go into replay to really enjoy the look of the game.

On the picture where Brown is giving the hand off to Williams you can see Williams' thumb going through the football. :o

Is the anti-aliasing turned off completely or is it still being worked on?

Re: Wildcat Formation in Madden 10 w/Pics

Clinton Portis, Matt Forte, Tashard Choice, Martellus Bennett..

Come on Donny, let me see the boys new stadium...

Whoa whoa whoa sir, those are all clear visor players.

Jamar Williams wears a dark visor (special teams player for the bears, maybe another team now i dunno) Kawika Mitchell and Marshawn Lynch wore clear half and smoke/dark half last year, LT is dark, Brian Dawkins is dark, I will do some more work tonight to find out who else uses smoke and dark visors.
