Madden NFL 11 Video: Drew Brees and the Saints

Re: Madden NFL 11 Video: Drew Brees and the Saints

The running and footplanting still doesn't look right. I was hoping this new locomotion would fix this but from the looks of that vid it hasn't. When Reggie Bush broke that TD run it looked like he wasn't even running fast. It's like hes not taking enough strides when he runs. I hated that about Madden 10 & it's still evident. I also noticed a lot of sliding around especially on that Pierre Thomas run. I thought EA would have these things ironed out by now. I also dont like how the default camera view is so far up. It makes the players look way too small. They should make the camera a little closer & lower presnap but have it zoom out when passing. Hopefully they bring back custom camera view.

Agreed 100%. The legs are not moving relative to player speed. Hopefully this gets fixed, because it looks a lot like 10 right now.

I take it I am the only one who Heard "THERES THE DEEP THROW" like only gus johnson can. Its 100% dude is a new announcer. Go back and watch when brees is joking that he wants to throw the ball 80 yards and fit it into any tight corner

No, you are not the only one. I'm sure its in the OP too. I also heard it.

I hope that pre game pump up with Brees was just in an early build. Without background sounds, it didn't sound good at all. I need crowd noises that are loud to go worth that or I'll skip it every single time.

The video looked good though, gameplay wise. Drew Brees' teeth weren't pearly white, but the gameplay made up for it some. It was nice to see how locomotion has changed the game. The trailer didn't do much for me, but this video really looked a lot better than any Madden gameplay wise just about. Still some things need working on, but it looked great.

i was not impressed with that vid. Not a fan of this new thing where they tell you things like "be patient and follow your blocks" because that stuff is pointless. Like someone else said, the Bush running motion looked AWFUL.

That pre game chant was amazing but I need to hear the crown in that cut-scene.

Can you guys tell me whats wrong with the running animation? I thought it looked the best its ever looked and was similar to APF 2k8's. If you're all complaining about the high knee run, thats a move performed on the right thumbstick with the new Dual-Analog Control. Pulling it back makes your player run straighter up and brings his knees higher. That makes it harder to bring the ball carrier down from an angle like from behind. But, it also can get your ball carrier killed if hit from the front.

Do you know if it has been confirmed that there won't be no restyling to the scorebar and consequently no real network integration?

Hasnt been confirmed. Its not a good sign that its not in there yet though. Unless they are gonna throw a curve ball at us and at it all in later down the line and introduce it.

It is kinda hard to believe that they would allow NCAA to blow them away in the presentation department though.

I thought it looked fine too, maybe they can move the legs fast when Bush is top speed but besides that it was much better than last years.

I agree and that really baffles me.

i love the Intro....they just need to add some stadium sound and crowd noise because it sounds like they are in a vacant building

correct me if I am wrong but NCAA Basketball still had an option for Generic presentation right? so its not a far stretch to think the other titles would follow suit. as such, i am sure NCAA football will have generic with the espn presentation.

Not saying that Madden will or should but I dont think the case is closed just yet
