Madden 25...got to be more careful

look specifically at the 8:47 mark.

Mike Vick in all his glory trucks a would be defender going in for a sack. I know this is supposedly a work in progress build but that just looked terrible. There are other things in this video that bother me but that one took the cake.

I really am having a hard time looking forward to this game if this is what I'm going to be subjected to.

Yea that's beyond cheezy having any QB truck a D linemen, especially when they have no momentum built up.

At around the 15:40 mark you can see the guy throw a TD pass on a hitch route. The corner floats 12 yards off of him all the way to the back of the endzone letting the WR walk in for the score. Hope this is on Rookie or something b/c that looks like the type of coverage I've gotten used to seeing in NCAA 14.

Hate to break it to you but it's on All-Pro......

You can see it at the beginning of the video. It makes me a very sad panda

Wow. probably just going to pass if thats the case and use M25 money on GTAV.

I guess there's an outside chance sliders will tighten up coverage though

Wonderful - so the overused and abused cheese hitch route plagues Madden as well... Expectations lowered.

Work in progress.

Translation: cover our asses.

Work in progress.

Translation: cover our ******.

Exactly - this will likely play the exact same way when we all get this in our hands August 27th.

Re: Madden 25...got to be more careful

then again in m13 Eli avoided tackles from 52, 53, 55 and 99 in the latest nfc champ game i played. i dont think there is a team better in maddedn than the 9ers for lb tackling, this is on all madden with sliders. previous play they annihilated bradshaw behind the line

That's not just any D-Lineman either, that's Pro Bowl linebacker Ryan Kerrigan. Vick must be paying the guys at EA to keep himself relevant

Re: Madden 25...got to be more careful

I can not believe they are passing this game off as 'new'. Features wise, fine. But the gameplay looks identical to Madden 13. No wonder why I am waiting till next gen.

That's what bothers me so much about it. I mean the fact that it was a D-Lineman was bad enough......but a PRO BOWL linebacker getting trucked by VICK.......Seriously EA help me to understand that logic.

Yeah noticed that the DB was no where in position to even try to make a play..

Re: Madden 25...got to be more careful

Just saw the video and yeah, that was just ridiculous. Reminds me of how in basketball games back in the day how just about any player could do all kinds of dunks. Those games seemed to have fixed that now, so I wonder why it's seemingly hard for Tiburon to fix ratings and their relation to animations, to prevent these kinds of things.

As soon as I saw that part of the video, I was thinking I wonder why QBs aren't appropriately rated and represented more vulnerable in Madden. I have been saying this for years about all applicable positions and players in Madden needing to be rated and represented as such.

No doubt this same aspect in the video will be seen in the case of scat backs trucking players and generally not being as vulnerable as their stature suggests they should. Add that with the lack of a wear-n-tear injury system, SPD and INJ trump size and strength for player personnel at skill positions.

I spoke to Shopmaster about this and he said this was the only time any of the guys at community day two weeks ago saw this happen. He also said he spoke to the devs and it will be something addressed in the final build.

Like I said in a post earlier today, I don't mind something weird happening every once in a great while as long as it rarely, almost never happens. If something works properly 99/100 times I'm fine with that, but on current gen most things have been 50/50.

I still think size and strength don't matter nearly as much as EA thinks/says it does. Far too often the wrong animation triggers and the wrong time and you get awful interactions. I still am seeing it in 25 gameplay vids. I'm also seeing the awkward stiff arm animation where they run sideways while the defender holds their arm... unfortunately I saw it in the next gen demo with AP as well.
