Madden NFL 12 Videos - Virtual Playbook Gameplay and Presentation

the sliding looks worse than the previous years IMO....no 3d grass is going to help this lack of foot planting. it feels as if there is no connection between the field itself and the players and thats why its gonna be another year of disney on ice.

I really think this is gonna be a good year of EA football and i'm looking forward to Madden 12 more than any other madden since 04.

But for Madden 13 this foot planting has to be fixed, it just looks terrible

You should definitely not get this game. Actually, you should forget it exists. That way, you will not have to worry about anything Madden...and I will not have to read your complaints on the Madden boards. Silly me, I forgot the ignore option. Done.

IMO the lack of footplanting and a TRUE locomotion engine is the biggest flaws in the next-gen Madden's to date. Also the running animations still look like a bunch of robots running around. If they had FIFA's locomotion and foot planting engine it would make Madden light years better.

True, people who've tried FIFA have been spoiled by RailTracks, FIFA's 'locomotion' engine. Also with EA Canada integrating real physics in FIFA 12, Madden 12's 'new' features only appear to be years behind -- remember, FIFA has had a collision system since FIFA 08.

NHL fans should feel right at home.

Looking great I must admit. Hope they can get rid of the sliding around. I mean, I'm used to it at this point but it still needs to go. Players still seem to be disconnected from the field.

If they can remedy that, things would be golden.

Don't forget they have a new GM who has a resume from FIFA.

I'm sure if he keeps seeing the comments, we might have something looking like it, but I doubt for 12.

There is no doubt in my mind that a full physics/collision system is on the way. Taking a lil minute to get here, lol but I'm sure its coming. Mean time in between time, when it comes to Madden/NCAA you can take it or leave it. I've always taken it, was disappointed with 06-09, but greatly enjoyed 10 and 11.

I agree that full physics/collision probably wont be in 12 but we're getting there.

Only thing missing on the Bears intro is the 4th phase flag for Cutler. Would be awesome if they could include that!

I do believe Madden will eventually become a good game, but not because of Cam Weber's (EA's new GM) resume, but his attitude towards delivering fantastic core gameplay.

That being said, Madden still looks like a very flawed game in my opinion and judging from the gameplay videos released to far, I've seen very little to get me excited about this years edition.

His attitude towards delivering fantastic core gameplay is part of the resume for me.

Honestly, for me, it's a an increase from 11 and that might warrant a purchase on this end.(not talking about the physics and locomotion because it's not a finished product, yet)

Still, at the end of the day, I feel there are more positives than negatives with 12 over 11 at this time.

Is it just me r does it feel like we should have already had this stuff by now..I know its been said before but no competition sucks. But oh well as long as Madden chooses to be the Only NFL game available they deserve all the criticism About the gameplay they don't get right and the game modes they put off for years.

Re: Madden NFL 12 Virtual Playbook #1 & #2: Gameplay and Presentation

Both videos looked awsome. I love the tackling and it looked good. I'm also loving the presentation camera angles aswell. It looks so real and all. But one thing that concerns me about the gameplay in video number 2. Is when Vick snaps the ball. The Giants DE are going to far out to the sides then coming back in and going after the QB. Why are the DE going out that far just to get to the QB. It seemed that both DEs was doing the same angles to get to the QB. Plus the DEs was not using no sort of swim move to try and free themselves from the tackles. Why didn't one of the DEs try going to the inside of the tackle with a swim move. Both DEs was mirror imaging each other when going out to the outside of the tackles to get to the QB. To me that is a concern there. I hope they have more animations then that for the DEs.

Dude, that was just one play... one play. Maybe the defensive play called was for them to go high.. RELAX, wait for more footage. People are over analyzing every little thing they see in these videos.. CALM DOWN, wait for actual gameplay footage (meaning look at more than ONE play) and then make your assessments....
