Re: Madden NFL 10: Updated Running Animation

Unfortunately it does look like graphics have taken a hit on animations. Last gen Madden had great smooth animations and gameplay. Graphics were nice , not great but nice.
Now on this engine being used for Madden. The graphics are very nice but animations and gameplay are not smooth.

I think as of now it is safe to say that graphics really take away from gameplay.

this makes no sense.

the thing is that old gen maddens had completely scripted animations (like APF 2K8) and that led to a smoother look but less dynamic animations in general. oh, and the fact that they made it for 8 years already. i have complete faith that this gen will eventually be that smooth even with the ability to influence animations. we've only used the tech for 3 years.

Yo Ian if possible can you....

These Philadelphia Eagles could use some tweaking both in Body types & equipment...Just click on the links under each players name to view their individual Photo Galleries to see what I'm talkin about.

DT Mike Patterson #98 is too small & slender. He's a short stout,squatty wide body at DT.

DT Brodrick Bunkley #97 You could prolly just reverse Bunkley & patterson's body types. Bunkley looks like what Patterson should like & vice versa.

OL Todd herremans #79 is kind of on the slender side for an O-lineman

TE Cornelius Ingram #88 is ripped but kind of slender. He looks too bulky.

DT Dan Klecko #68 like Patterson is a short stocky wide body. he's too slender on the game.

Also will you be tweaking players equipment as well? Hopefully because I see some flaws w/ some of my Eagles pLayers. Here is a list & links to each players Photo Galleries as to what they should have equipment wise under ea. players name...remember please click throught the Galleries to see the exact details.

Are you seriously complaining about the wrong facemasks?

Re: Madden NFL 10: Updated Running Animation

What happened to the videos. Does the running animations compare to 2k's running animations from anyone who's seen it?

No they dont compare. From the earlier vids they look the same with the knee not going up as high.

Re: Madden NFL 10: Updated Running Animation

Man this forum has turned into a huge hate-a-thon before the release. I feel bad for what Ian has coming to him when this game hits. Its gonna be a slaughter.

The thing is it will probably be the best Madden in a long time...and he will still be blasted. Lose lose. I doubt he does this again next year.

lol so true. If only the fans knew what these developers went through. As a community you have to realize, they will not get everything right. Would you rather have really great quality on certain parts of the game or a bunch of parts that were mediocre? I'll take quality over quantity anyday.

Gotta disagree with this . There are a LOT of people here who think constructive criticism equates to: "OMG Ian, wtf? This looks like crap, why can't they fix it? Just FIX IT!!!1"

This isnt about how hard the latest Madden team has worked, its about giving us a complete good game for the first time since 2006 next gen! Nobody is attacking Ian or individual dev, there are attacking the game. The Madden team is getting paid to work, so what ever they are going through mentally is expected. I dont know to many jobs that dont come with a little pressure. What Im trying to figure out is why so many defend the devs, when the only thing being attacked is the game. I have rarely seen a individual dev being called out. If one has, its Ian simply because hes the face of the operation. Welcome to leadership.Nobody said it is easy.

Lets get back to the running annimations please, Im interested in hearing more. It always amazes me how people manage to take a topic and direct it to the same old, same old.
