i love that Ian is allowing us to decide what looks good and what should be changed/go to the dumpster.
i personally, did NOT like madden since madden 06 for reg xbox (i never played it since 99 due to 2k football)
but the direction the game is going and the way the developer, ian, wants the game to be OUR GAME is what ive been waiting for.
every other year = david ortiz game and deal with it. now that we have a chance to provide feedback people gripe & moan like little school girls who got their panties in a bunch.
BAN THESE PEOPLE UNTIL MADDEN 10 RELEASE DATE
------------------------------
anyway, the animation looks a little funny. is there any way to mo cap certain players (all of them preferably) for a dropback?
if not maybe having a mo cap of a speedy qb (mcnabb, vick like guys) then another for the classic drop back qb (manning, brady etc) would make the dropbacks feel a little more natural.
dont forget, not every qb holds the ball close to their ear like a high school qb. as the qb progresses thru college and to the nfl, watch where the ball is.
its sometimes by the hip/chest and sometimes already cocked back and ready to go.
as a note, i like the way that apf 2k8 did dropbacks. not everything about it but the way when you are dropping back and try to run, you have to pivot your foot.
my worry is people hiking and holding turbo to break out of the dropback then darting to the sidelines or dropping back 30 yards.
its cool that you have a 'throw on the run rating' but most people set up the qbs feet outside the pocket/30 yards behind the line of scrimmage.
eh, enough. im going off topic.
we need some additional mo-cap dropbacks of REAL nfl players.
even to start working on every qb for next year would be fantastic
