The only thing I fear with the sideline reporter is them repeating everything fom week to week.

lol, you are mature and wise enough to know how it goes, never let the truth and facts get in the way of a good story. What's funny is, if I thought Madden was such a good game or was going to be, I couldn't care less what others thought. I would of course respect their opinion but it wouldn't bother me, nor would I feel compelled to change their mind. It's one thing if someone stated they like or don't like the game and then proceeds to articulate why to others, cool but when we get into the selective memory to support opinions, that's when I smh.

I haven't been satisfied with next-gen Madden for any considerable length of time in a long time and when I post about it, it's therapy, wrapped in constructive criticism, which beats screaming at the wall or just giving up on football gaming. However, I don't get frustrated with or feel the need to convert those that are satisfied with game, unless they try to imply there must be something wrong with me since I'm not.

On the topic of presentation, I get the impression that the creative minds behind it in Madden think emulating a broadcast is somehow boring and "old hat". That same disconnect was there even with Ian, in certain regards, when he would state things like "you want that in a video game?" I will never understand the seeming philosophy from Tiburon that they can do something better before every actually doing it right. That's the the impression I get from Mike Young with presentation, "of course we could easily do it just like a network broadcast but what fun would that be?" lol

All truth posted right here. That's why I'm never in the NBA 2k or MLB The Show Forums. I don't care to talk about them because I'm too busy enjoying them. In this forum I'm just on the opposite end, because there are guys in those forums who feel how I feel about Madden. I still don't try to sway their opinions or convert them to lovers of the dev team or game.

Also Tiburon is hilarious with their approaches to presentation at times. I think their getting on the right track now though(hopefully). At least that GOD AWFUL on the field approach is gone that they tried from 06-08. IDK what they were thinking with that. It's like master it before you move onto something else.

I do agree with Armor & Sword. I played 12 and 13 this week. I have 12 and rented 13. I like a lot of the features more in 13 -- like the pass trajectories-- but 12 does play a better game of football imo.

Don't worry, I hear you, even thought the others totally ignore your point. I've noticed non of them has addressed your actual point of how you go backwards in AI between 12 and 13..

Someone argues Tiburon ignores AI. I argue it's limited by hardware. A&S says M13 went backwards and something about features or whatever, ignoring that I'm stating a case about the hardware use for the greater AI we all want, that it being a step backwards is not a talking point.

That computing 21 individual AI's to absorb and reaction to a wide variety of variables in seconds is certainly going to demand more from the hardware than a single pitcher in MLB The Show.



But of course to you Bucky, the one of the "EA sucks" argument is the one being ignored.

Very typical OS.


For the record, I didn't see anyone refute his claim...it merely doesn't matter to the point I've made. I don't care about it going backwards, I'm arguing the challenge of it going leaps forward...the leaps we all want and ask for.

I'd say that going backwards in AI is somewhat ignoring. Wouldn't you? What does going backwards have to do with Hardware?

I think going backwards in AI is a huge talking point when talking about where we want to be.

Doesn't excuse the AI going backwards.

How can you not care about it going backwards?

Why not just agree with the guy and say, but I hope and think with the upgraded hardware of the next generation we will see a much improved AI?

Cause, well, the AI really did go backwards from 12 to 13.

[morkusyambo]

These new features are nice only if they make the experience more immersive. If they add more windows/menus it will not feel that way.

I don't care about any of this unless they fix the OL/DL interactions and the sliders.

13 pages of complaining.....its not that I disagree with your complaints, I disagree with your solution. Coming here and crying does nothing....N O T H I N G. The only way to show your disappointment that EA will actually take notice of, is to NOT buy the game. But no, can't do that can ya? So basically, you reap what you sow...you keep buying this game and keep filling EA's considerable pockets and you get what they feel like giving you. Welcome to corporate America.......

I didn't buy. Thanks to OS I new I wouldn't like it. That's one of the pluses of having people comment on a respectable forum.

I read this statement sometimes and it's just simply not true. Yes, complaining alone doesn't do much, except be therapeutic for some but neither does not buying alone. I have some post where I have already stood on my soapbox about this POV but the gist is consumers should both speak out AND not buy when dissatisfied with any product, especially an exclusive one.

Buy don't buy, complaining doesn't do anything, blah blah blah.

I foresee the end of this thread soon if we don't get back on topic.

Sooo, what stadium specific songs, chants, or sound effects are you guys hoping to see? I am hoping they put the "Bang the Drum" song back in the game for when the Packers score a TD. That is a huge part of the Lambeau experience.

Re: Madden NFL 25 Presentation Details, New Sideline Reporter Added (Name Not Reveale

Personally, I'd really like to see the Drum Line that Dallas comes out too make it into the game.

There's a topic? It isn't an open thread? Who knew.

As far as stadium specific stuff, I'd like to see a return of 'The Hey Song' after I score touchdowns in Arrowhead. Absolutely loved hearing that with the crowd going crazy. It's just unfortunate they can't put the "We're gonna beat the hell out of YOU YOU YOU YOU" in there.

They actually had that whole chant in madden 11 I think it was.

Yeah, I think it was just the 'YOU' part IIRC. It was either that or they went silent where they said hell which could have been it too. Definitely would like to see it back in that capacity though. I think the past couple it's just played a regular song.

[Armor and Sword]

Re: Madden NFL 25 Presentation Details, New Sideline Reporter Added (Name Not Reveale

I want all the team specific chants and fight songs back in full force, and for the love of God.

NFL FILMS MUSIC BACK IN FULL FORCE FOR THE MENU SCREENS!!!!!!
