Feature sounds great on paper.. in fact, so great that I need alot of convincing it's real.

I'm having flashbacks of "adaptive ai" that was introduced into Madden 06 on the ps2, and then again with Madden 10 on the current systems.

Being dynamic seems to be a key theme for M12, which sounds good to me - the only problem is the more dynamic you make a game the more chance the balance is disturbed and you get poor results. But it's a risk EA needed to make to combat the stale nature of Madden.

All praise to tiny football..... Its kind of a big deal.

This is the best news I've heard about Madden. I never thought that there would be a feature to allow players' performances to change dynamically and make every game different. This sounds very interesting, and I can't wait to see how it works for myself.

I really hope this works well. I mean it's one thing if the guy had a bad game the week before and throws an INT and struggles that game as well. But if it's just a "normal" game where someone like Vick or Matt Ryan aren't on a cold or hot streak and they throw an INT, in reality, they could just as easily come back and lead the offense to a TD the next possession than struggle the rest of the game. Looking forward to playing though, I'm pumped for both football games this year.

Awesome features. Would love To know if there's any EMOTIONAL traits? Dawkins, Lewis, Brees, etc - guys that inspire a team to play out of their skins

Madden has just about topped NCAA from 11 to 12 both games are in a transformation but Madden's tackled both presentation and gameplay more in-depth than NCAA. I like where NCAA is headed too but its like Madden Team worked a little bit more on the game remaining fresh, but also that could be because NCAA is just now getting into coaching carousel, so that may be why their attention couldnt have been as in-depth as Madden is seeming right now.

Re: Dynamic Player Performance during games (from IGN)

Umm no, if they did that, nobody would buy the $20 strategy guide.

The strategy guide doesnt really tell you what buttons do what, they are mostly used to show you how to run various formations or plays

Just thinking out loud . If you use NCAA players for the draft how will they determine the traits for the players . You would think either its in the game hidden or maybe we will have the ability to have traits in NCAA

My guess is rookies don't start with many traits to begin with..and then you naturally accrue or lose them.

Maybe a generic, yet relevant set of traits determined by position and OVR rating?

I would like that. Maybe they could add something like an influence/ability to be influenced trait too. So, if you have a QB like Brees who starts lighting it up then, that will have more of an impact on a rookie WRs rating than a veteran WR like T.O. Just a thought...

You can Edit players so if they assign traits to a player arbitrarily that you dont agree with you can change it to your liking.
