Madden NFL 12 Video - Virtual Playbook #4: Dynamic Player Performance

I'm confused. I ended up watching the Eli vid first. Then saw people talking about Bush. Figured out they were 2 vids finally. lol

Anyway. In the Eli video the animations were somewhat herky jerky and there was definitely sliding going on. Got me a little concerned.

Then I watch the Bush vid and it was smooth as butter, really no sliding to be seen.

So umm.....Eli vid must be an early build?

I would say so judging by this post:

Just to throw it out there... this is the FIRST video I was shown when I got here, so the graphics in it are severely out of date.

E.A Sports is doing a better marketing job in my opinion this year over last year. i think the game play seemed stiff pr maybe there showing everything on slow speed doesn't the game speed help certain animations ?

now the turf that pops up is nice to see i am ready for dynamic field dedigration no field looks the same ever maybe they can get this in next year.

love the football helmets the linear lighting has improved them to look like the real ones but i think the uniforms are not detailed enough look kind of washed out after playing the show i guess i am spoiled to expect they could get better uniform definition. what madden had the best looking uniforms ? was it 07 or 08 on next gen.

the Eli manning video is the bomb the dynamic thing is going to be huge and expect them to tweak it all year long until they get a good setting for impact .

oh and you can see the new ball physx when marshel fumbled lol they should have used reggie he is the fumbler in real life that ball was going alot of different ways.

This is defeinitely the best video I've seen animation wise. I can definitely deal with the smoothness of the video. Some of the animations, or parts of them just look goofy though.

Like when Reggie catches the ball at about 1:25. He barely looks for the ball to make the catch.



It reminds me of a girl or a little kid when they try to catch a football and have to turn their head because they are scared the ball will hit them in the face, lol.

There are a few more I could point out, but I won't because overall this video looked good. Nice and smooth. Really excited for Madden 12.

Did anyone else notice all of the receivers using the same exact animations and sliding while going to the line?

Are you sure you are talking about the right trailer? This trailer the camera just focuses on Reggie Bush and Marshal Faulk?????

Good video, but did anyone notice how Sam Bradford looked like he would rather be doing ANYTHING ELSE than say his line? lol

After checking it out again, I really liked the small spin move Marshall does at 2:24 and 3:37. I hope that is a signature move for elusive backs, and not some generic move for every running back.

Just out of curiosity, why would you want to post it anywhere after being informed that is from an earlier build and considering this video seems to show marked improvement?

I'm impressed show me more

Straight rip off of APF. Complete and total. If they really did fix the running this game could be really something. Glad to have abilities in a newer game, but I'm completely surprised by how blatant a rip off this is.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

The graphics look really sharp, much better than Madden 10, the last game I played. I didn't play Madden 11 but wasn't impressed with the graphics in the videos I saw. Does 12 look that much better than 11?

Yes. M11 had very similar graphics to M10. The new player models or colors make it great

Definitely better than 11. I hope that one year the focus will be animations. I'd like to see what they could do if they spent a year to revamp them like they do other aspects of the game.

If nothing else, I finally feel Madden is headed in the right direction, for me, anyway. I know many felt this way after 10, but I didn't really share that sentiment.

This surprises me I have to admit. Seeing you state that you feel Madden in heading in the right direction.

You know I have not been impressed with Madden at all since next gen era began, but Madden 11 I felt that game was the start of something. Everything else before that I felt was horrible, well until lol.

Funny thing is I pick up Madden 08 for 1.99 and I have to say. I agree with those that felt they should have built from there. Madden 08 had something going, and they did not take advantage of it.

Anyways that was then and this is now. I'm hoping Madden 12 really takes a step forward.

I really want to try out the demo, and see for myself.

Oh yea Madden 08 had the VISION CONE !!!!!!!!!!!! Boy was I loving it
