Re: New Vid on Gametrailers

Maddens looking like it's going to shape up to be a playable game this year... saw a couple of things I liked and some things that could use some work (which is probably being adressed). Overall I'm impressed.

That was pretty awesome, the graphics look great.

Re: New Vid on Gametrailers

Presentation looks so much better, and we've just seen a bit of it. The game speed looks great, too.

Re: New Vid on Gametrailers

what i noticed from that video is that video is an earlier build. the players models look much better in the IGN pictures.

also no updated cleats in that video. so i'm sure all of the tackling glitches ware prob adjusted by now.

Why does the grass glow so much?

Re: New Vid on Gametrailers

i wish we could tell when the actual footage was taken . i would like to know if the game is progressing as far as gameplay. Ian said this guy was kind of out of it.....who knows how long he had this interview for before he posted it.

it just seems some of the vids def look like older builds

maybe Ian could confirm the actual date of the interview so it would put the games progression into prospective

Re: New Vid on Gametrailers

looks good overall but what the hell is going on with the tight end play at 4:30?? looks odd. heath miller takes on 3 guys and pushes them all backward then it kind of jumps forward? ..looks weird

Re: New Vid on Gametrailers

At 2:07 of the vid the defense is huddling up like an offense would... defenses don't do that.

Here is an example of an offensive huddle and defensive one:



Notice how the offensive huddle (Cardinals) is neater, and the defensive huddle (Steelers) is less organized.

The camera starting at 2:07 needs to come down some too. Because of where the plays are positioned, it's obstructing the view and the shot looks a bit strange.

Re: New Vid on Gametrailers

The game looks good even in this alpha build. Props to Ian for giving an interview to a floating mic for 15 minutes lol. That must have been very awkward. Those little glitches will most definitely get fixed before release. They wouldn't let the game ship with pro-tak looking like that. It's their staple for this game

Re: New Vid on Gametrailers

I think the one new thing that I came away from the video with was how when a tackle is engaged and the player is definitely going down, the camera angle changed to a broadcast style one. This is different to previous years where the play was over for 8 seconds and the camera never changed. I like this A LOT!

Good work folks, I'm diggin the new stuff coming out.

Re: New Vid on Gametrailers

I sure hope they put the field lines back onto the play call screen. They've made it almost TOO generic looking.

Also, while I am happy for the camera flashes in the Super Bowl, I think it's gone a bit overboard. There are 100 camera flashes going off per second during a regular play from scrimmage. Only on the opening kickoff is the flash volume that high. I don't mind it though since it makes the SB feel more "different."

Yea i had mentioned that a few weeks ago. It looks real generic plus i want to see what routes get me the first down without having to smart route u know? I hope that could be fixed.

Re: New Vid on Gametrailers

Im willing to bet the way the guy treated the interview had more to do with Madden's reputation.

Re: New Vid on Gametrailers

one thing i noticed now i love that they slowed the game speed down but when theres 18 seconds left in the super bowl shouldnt they have rushed alot more???? it seemed like just another play there was no rush to get the play off and get to the line

Re: New Vid on Gametrailers

Nice vid the little things are really starting to add up. I like how Big Ben gets under center with one leg behind the other just like we see on Sundays!!

Re: New Vid on Gametrailers

What I liked:

Dockett blows up a run.
Dockett gets pressure up the middle on the pass play.
Good steering animations by the OT's
Good riding and fight by the DE's (although I still think they engage to early)

What needs more tuning:

Dansby engages too early. Should have run up the field some more.

QB finishes drop way too early before DE's get up the field. Or is it DE's engaging too early and thereby making it look like the QB finishes his drop way too early. Whichever one it is and it could be a little bit of both, this needs to get straightened out.

Will have to look at it again. The gang tackling at the end with Miller they will fix, I'm sure, so I'm not including that.
