Don't know if this has been asked or answered yet..but for new coaches, how will gameflow work?

The game looks like it plays a lot better than M10 honestly in terms of locomotion, blocking AI, etc. However, I really am getting sick of the same tackle animations over and over. Especially the ones where the the guy gets hit from the front and they fall forward. It just looks like that couldn't happen.

Also, did anyone notice on video 5 @ 23 seconds after the TD, the ref scoots sideways very glitchy then it happens again, WTF!!??!? That is just really really bad.

Also, where is the spin catch, I must have missed it.

I can honestly say that ncaa 11 WILL be better than madden 11 this year...Playing the ncaa 11 demo on all-american was been fun and wonderful...alot of great things....

Oh ok. How was Madden 11? Did it feel good or just like last year? Cause honestly, you should be able to give a good opinion right?

They still have the same crappy sidelines. Everybody on the sidelines is wearing the same facemask again. WTF? Are they ever gonna address the sidelines? I understand that they probably can't get the sideline players look exactly like the players on the field but they can at least improve them. I mean can we at least get them to look like they belong on a Last Gen console let alone Current Gen. They still look like cardboard cutouts. I'm tired of trying to ignore looking at the sidelines when I play because it totally kills the immersion of the game seeing how crappy they look. Come on EA the cutsceens look cool but its almost 2011. Why can't we get the sidelines to look like they do in the cutsceens during gameplay? Don't give me that stuff about you have to sacrifice things to get the game to run at 60fps. Other sports games don't have that problem. Come on EA step your game up!

Yea, the sidelines are really apart of what's going on on the field. Hope u got the sarcasm in that. Obviously, it's not as easy as you think for them to fix that because if it was so simple, don't u think it would have been done? C'mon, son.

Old games have dynamic sidelines, I don't think it's difficult, it's not in their priority list....

Re: Pasta Padre Madden Video Set 2

Does EA work on animations anymore? especially tackling animations? apparently not. not enough disc space after all.

Re: Madden NFL 11 Videos: Colts vs. Chargers (Pastapadre)

I just thought of a possible reason why there is no commentary before the snap. With the gameflow feature the offensive coordinator is supposed to be speaking to you before the snap telling you what play to run.

I think so too. I don't think they'll come out and say that certain presentational elements of Madden were sacrificed for GF, but it's evident. Same thing with the ways the players approach the line: I was hoping we would get some camera shots of the RB, WR, or a defender from time to time instead of the QB 100% of the time. Nope! It would appear the pre-snap sequence is set up to zoom out to account for the coach cam/play art that immediately shows up when GF is activated.

Few things I noticed that I loved:

-when they show replays, they show it from 3 different angles, instead of just a quick 3 second clip that showed up 3 times a game last year. This is A HUGE upgrade for me!

-showing the press box when they want to challenge the call was priceless, really added to the realism.

-did anyone notice when the quarter ended they showed a few highlight clips from the quarter, followed by trainers getting the players water? That was beautiful!

-showing stats while replays are playing is a much welcomed addition, really adds to realism

-I love how after the td and then the pat, when it transitions to kick off/return, they show the replay again....BEAUTIFUL EA!

-Some of you people will NEVER be pleased, you see the glass half empty...I see it half full. Everything EA has done this year in NCAA AND Madden has been very welcomed and I can definitely tell the difference. You guys are in denial if you think it's Madden 10 with Gus Johnson. I can't freaking wait to spend hours playing my college and madden fix this year!

You don't have to play Madden 11 to know what's NOT in it. The Madden team has already told us what's NOT in the game this year.

So, somebody has played the NCAA 11 demo and we know what great features and modes ARE in NCAA 11. I don't think it's unreasonable for somebody to feel that NCAA 11 will be better than Madden 11.

Unless the Madden 11 team is doing a psych on everyone, and they actually made major improvements to game modes.
