Madden NFL 13 Video - Tim Tebow... Tebowing

Re: Madden NFL 13 Video - Tim Tebow... Tebowing

I could be wrong, but the warping was obviously a cut from his TD to a few seconds after...if EA was really trying to put one over on everybody, they would have done a much better editing job.

I haven't seen it mentioned, but I would be more than willing to bet that they cut out either new scenes or possible graphic overlays because those new details (of whatever was cut) have not been released yet to the public.

EA just wanted to give a quick nod to Tebowing being in the game, it's not like it was a big video release day or anything.

Kane699, 3 post above yours, #27, explains it. He works for EA or the last time I knew, he did.

Just an FYI.

Re: Madden NFL 13 Video - Tim Tebow... Tebowing

Man August 28th seems like such a LONG ways away, doesn't help that everyone has to criticize EVERY single detail in these pre-alpha screens and videos. I want to post E3 videos but I can only imagine the level of criticism that will happen then.

this.

absolutely hilarious that people are nit picking everything in this video. basically, they're showing you the tebowing. anything other than that, i refuse to comment on because it's so blatantly, obviously not "final code that's going to be in the game so we immediately need to worry about everything"

Re: Madden NFL 13 Video - Tim Tebow... Tebowing

Tebow has three threads now lol. After sitting back for a while and just reading I realized OS will never be satisfied. It's like a bottomless pit, but if you cant beat'em... Tebow'em.

My Ideal game w/ Tebow would have him do the arm flex that he always does when he scores then maybe a cutscene. Why does Tebow deserve his own cutscene?? He is the MOST talked about player in the NFL in the last 10 years & its not even close.

Im so sick of hearing we will never be satisfied. we are never satisfied because there is no attention to detail. i love that they try to put these things in the game, but they implement them so poorly, its hard to enjoy the fact theyre even there at all. no attention to detail. so they put tebowing in and blow their own horn about it as loud as they can, but then it turns out theyve done it wrong. theres ALWAYS a let down. get your **** together, Tiburon.

He did in 2010.

Also, at the 1:51 mark and the 3:27 mark in the drive against the Jets last season.

On both those runs, once he was well past the LOS and no longer able to pass he tucked the ball. The run doesn't look good and I have no clue how the EA team doesn't know he doesn't "Tebow" after TDs but everyone else does.

I feel like if the clip was of Tebow scoring and then Tebowing on the sideline this thread would be exactly the same. And nobody would be praising how authentic it is.

Re: Madden NFL 13 Video - Tim Tebow... Tebowing

Hmm maybe I am crazy but when he drops the ball the way it bounces and rolls. I don't know that just looks different to me.

In a good way.

I did preview all three runs before posting them and in the run in 2010, he carries it like a loaf of bread for 10 yds.

I can't recall on the second run, but on the third run, he carries it like a loaf of bread for 15 yds.

I was merely pointing that he does carry it like a loaf of bread, sometimes, the poster I quoted said he always carries it like a HB, which we've discovered isn't true.

From the poster I quoted: Tebow doesn't run like that, regardless of the other QB's in the league. Why they couldn't have just given him a HB run animation blows my mind.

He does run like that, sometimes.

And, sorry, before today, count me as one that didn't know he "tebowed" on the sidelines vs after TD's.

Guess I'm in the minority.

You'd be wrong. There wouldn't be any complaining about the Tebowing, but everything else would be the same...because it's not accurate.........even though EA keeps saying how authentic to the NFL Madden is..........................when both of their celebration videos aren't authentic at all............................................... ....Yup, that about sums it up.

So this is the main marketing play for Madden this year? Cadences and Tebowing...

EA's big marketing play is going to be whatever they show us on June 4th at E3, last year it was DPP, this year it will be related to Gameplay and Career Modes. As of today, Jim Nantz and Phil Simms are by far the most marketed part of Madden 13 by EA.

Re: Courtesy of ESPN: New Madden 13 Video: Tebowing

It's not just me right, his running looks improved over last year right? He's not hunched over.

I don't agree.. I dont really like how the running animation still looks.. Something is still not right.. He still looks hunchback while running, not just him but all the players in Madden still do. He needs to run upright while hitting his strides. The only time he should look hunchback is when he is hitting a hole or accelerating to a burst of speed, then when the player hits their stride, they should look more upright while running.. Please EA, get it right for once! For goodness sake what does it take to get it right?? Look at some game footage or something.. Tired of the same running animations every year?? I just dont understand why it takes EA so long to get something right? Who is in charge of animations? im curious..

[JerseySuave4]

I thought it looked awful. Not only is "Tebowing" not his TD celebration, he all the sudden goes from a full sprint to stopping on a dime to dropping to a knee. It just didn't look natural.

Re: Madden NFL 13 Video - Tim Tebow... Tebowing

Is it too late in development to change the QB ballcarrying style to a normal tuck or not? When forced to scramble, Pocket QBs like Brady, Brees, Rodgers, and Manning (both) almost always tuck the ball normally.

I showed 2 videos, 3 runs of Tebow carrying the ball IRL like a loaf of bread on post #24. If he does IRL, why not in the game?

Someone has already posted multiple QBs in the league from Alex Smith to Tom Brady. In the Madden footage he is obviously well out of range from the LOS in the open field. When they are no longer in position to throw or to fool the defense to look for the pass, QBs pretty much instinctively tuck the ball nowadays like a majority of players. Therefore it shouldn't be a default running animation for non-RBs, WRs, TEs, & FBs anymore. If you didn't know about the Tebowing not being done in the endzone you may not know about that as well.

But of course QBs are going to just have the ball in their throwing hand untucked until they've made the decision to run which is typically a few yards past the LOS. Tebow did tuck the ball every player except for the run were he only ran 6 yards for a TD since the play was so close to LOS anyway.


Here's the post I was talking about with all the current QBs (mostly pocket QBs) tucking the ball running with no intention to pass...it's a long on with a lot of photo examples so I'll just post the direct link instead of quoting.
