I always want to have players look like their real life counterparts. I try to update outdated equipment on players whenever I first get the game.

Re: Anal about Equipment?
Yup, I'm a little anal about equipment too I'm afraid...
I always just start with the equipment of my favorite team but after a while I start switching teams and doing their equipment.
And it's not only with Madden, I also do this in Fifa and NBA 2K. -
Re: Anal about Equipment?
Wana talk about anal over Equipment?!?!?!? I am going to be doing a complete overhaul of players equipment for m12. I have all the equipment changes made to the bears players and former bears players in my roster and all the CAPs that I made and all the Rookies that I made have 100% correct equipment.Comment

Re: Anal about Equipment?
Haha I'm the same way. I hate to say it but usually it would be the first thing I would before even playing a game lol. They've improved immensely over the years on this gen at getting guys equipment right. Their was a period where guys had stuff that was no where near what they had in real life like Peyton Manning with this facemask for like three years straight.

Re: Anal about Equipment?
One thing that's bugged me since they put it in was Jamaal Charles' facemask. In madden the eye bars are too long and curved and it looks a little odd.

Re: Anal about Equipment?
The fact that they can't get the 3-Bar RB facemask right has always bugged me...Go Seahawks!
Go Canucks!
Go UW!Comment

Re: Anal about Equipment?
What's equally bothersome, for me, is people naming equipment after players. Jamaal Charles does not wear that facemask, exclusively. It is, however, inaccurate in Madden 12.

Well, I can refer to it as the Riddell G2EG-LW, if that helps you sleep at night. However, for everyone else's sake, I'll refer to it in the most understandable manner.

Re: Anal about Equipment?
Totally dude, i've got an eagle eye for equipment inaccuracies. For example, it drives me nuts that Aaron Rodgers is wearing a big, clunky flak jacket in the demo.
Btw- let me just say that this forum is like alcoholics anonymous for me. Everytime i post something in the forums re: equipment, im guaranteed to get 20 comments like "who cares", "we're seriously talking about facemasks?!", or my least favorite- "why are we talking about [equipment issue] when [gameplay or game mode issue] doesnt work?".
Come one, come all, this thread is a safe place...13-Time World Champions: 1929, 1930, 1931, 1936, 1939, 1944, 1961, 1962, 1965, 1966, 1967, 1996, 2010

Re: Anal about Equipment?
Im with a lot of you. One of the first things i do when i get ANY sports title, is to make sure everyone on the team I'm using is correct equipment wise, then i work on the other teams that ill be playing. I feel having the correct equipment just adds to the overall immersion.
Its why correct equipment (like face masks, helmets etc) are so vital, regardless of what some may think. Having that stuff correct adds to the overall presentation for the game which is extremely important.Comment

I always have to have my Madden guys look like their real life counterparts. I get all that squared away before I play a game.Comment

Re: Anal about Equipment?
i used to be like this on pro evolution soccer... like ocd calibre editing.
Even my Madden 03 was updated until Madden 10 came out...
Although this year I think I may be joining your ranks on Madden.
Last year the fact Sam Bradford wore reebok cleats infuriated me...
Hopefully that's fixed!Comment
