Im Excited!

Im @ucking Impressed! Everything I was upset about in the wildcat blog is now ceased. All I need to see now is double team blocks on the DT by o-lineman on run/pass plays and EA has my $59.99.

Does anyone know if madden 10 will have double/triple team blocks? Can't run a 3-4 defense without it.

Re: Madden 10 Vids @ IGN.com

My take away:

• Jerky Movements (quick snaps from one animation to another)
• Instant Turns (why???)
• Camera Angle is too far out at the start of plays (at least for me)
• Madden still looks dark (can we get some brightness???)
• Still looks like there are missing frames when the game is in motion (yet the game looks good in replay.... 2.5 weeks later, and still no answer to why this is the case)
• Nice to see passes affected by tackles (ducks)
• Pro-Tak looks really, really kewl

Re: I just creamed in my shorts!

Can anyone from Community Day confirm that double/triple team blocks are in the game.

Im not as worried about the running animations right now.....If it still looks all herky jerky after E3 then we have a problem

People seem to think that this double teaming only effects 3-4 teams, but in real life hayneswort, shaun rodgers, and other really good dlinemen have played in 4 man fronts and still demanded double teams. Really without this a guy like hayneswort has either has very little value in either system because he can get locked up by one guy or is too powerful in any system because only one guy blocks him so he goes unblocked constantly.

Re: I just creamed in my shorts!

I hope that was on rookie mode, cause Ians WR in the "Blocking" video was double covered yet the DBs made NO attempt to swat the ball from what I could tell.

You're the only guy I see who says that collectively, the game looks better in replay than it does during the game.

To me, a flaw in the past couple years were that some of the tackles were "fast-fall" animations. This made it seem like there were frames missing in some of the animations. I didn't notice many of these ugly tackles in CD build I played.

I'm hard-pressed to believe that you think the EA Sports Highlight vids, which are basically replays, look better than Madden 09 in motion.

P.S. No one is entitled to a response to the devs. Add your name to the list...it's impossible for them to respond to everyone.

I think the EA guys either don't see it, don't believe us, or just refuse to acknowledge the issue with the jerky movements / missing frames during game play.

I wasn't blown away with Pro-Tak until that video. I'm impressed with what I saw in those videos.

The video was taken before Ian made the thread here saying that they were tweaking animations (as we speak). So they are acknowledging it.

Really one positive is all you can muster from those videos? I think your comments have been very constructive the past few days, I actually really think you've got an open mind but this post seems real nit picky to me. Everyone is entitled to their opinion however.
