Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
So when I make that board generalization I'm a troll? Yet I just read 8 pages of anti madden generalizations as well as generalizations about ppl who actually like the video. Someone comments that a poster is paid by ea to defend madden on the forums yet my statement is trolling?I know it's what you were going for but this is unecessary and so far from the truth.
The old 2k/madden wars may linger but have pretty much dissipated. People just want to play football which is why you couldn't be more wrong.
People here are passionate because they want Madden in the WORST way to succeed.
I remember in college I had Madden 05 on constantly. In between classes I was playing, listening to Bruno, checking depth charts, etc. It was one of the most immersed games I have ever played.
I never played 2k so spare me the trolling nonsense that people don't want it to succeed.
I want to get back to fully being immersed in the game which I haven't been for a while.
U may want madden to succeed. As I'm sure some of board might. I'm not dismissing anyone's concerns. Many ppl on here catch stuff i would never see like a coach facing the wrong way on a TD run. I want to game to be great instead of just good which I'm sure is a common goal for others as well. I was simply reaching out to JP to disengage from the same arguments with the same posters across multiple threads. Next time I will send a PM not to ruffle jimmies.Comment

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
And I didn't really get your subtle racism against "Foreign computer geeks"
When in fact, I don't think any foreign guys work on this game. (Could be wrong, someone who knows can certainly correct me)
So maybe the USA guys can just learn to make a better product ya know, instead of being labeled as foreign geeks..Comment

The Monday night football sims are. They just won't admit it. My point is 2K hasn't shown much. I think its going to be great but, they are mostly showing closeup, slow mo trailers just like the other sports games. Other next gen games have shown 20 or 30 minutes of actually game play.Comment

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
THE COWBOY Did it almost 2 years ago...and we haven't had it in the game.

but we should be careful what we ask for.... they might spam that animation in our faces..like the David Tyree SuperBowl catch.Comment

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
I find a way (which has become exponentially more difficult) EVERY year to beat the most "sim" experience on and off field out of EA's Pro Football title and enjoy (and play it to death) it EVERY year...
That being said:
The PS2 years are RELATIVELY the "Golden Years" simply because MORE THINGS STILL WORKED!!!
Basic stuff like Formation Subs / Auto Subs / Coach Philosophy Sliders / Accurate Sim Engine (and other assorted aspects of customization inside and outside Franchise / CCM) have ALL fallen by the wayside, presumably to waste the potential of a bigger, more powerful console on graphics and enticing the casual / head to head / online player...
I'd consider M25 to be the "GOAT" of the PS3 era, IF things that worked perfectly in earlier iterations still were in the game and still worked...
We still seem to "lose" more working features EVERY release cycle, which is frustrating / sad...
So, yeah unfortunately, the mid series PS2 games were the Golden Years, because all the above features were in the game AND actually worked "as advertised"...Comment

They still showed 5V5 gameplay from the broadcast view that people play on. Madden hasn't shown any offense Vs. defense from the view guys play the game on.The Monday night football sims are. They just won't admit it. My point is 2K hasn't shown much. I think its going to be great but, they are mostly showing closeup, slow mo trailers just like the other sports games. Other next gen games have shown 20 or 30 minutes of actually game play.
Other next gen games that are not sports games have showed 20 to 30 minutes. The only point i'm trying to make is, 2K has show actual gameplay, from the view that we all play the game on. Even if it was only 2 minutes, it's 2 minutes more than what Madden has showedComment

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
U might be on to something. There was no such thing as legacy issues back then.The more I read the comments the more I'm starting to come to a couple conclusions.
1. If you say you like Madden then people act like your an EA lover and must be getting something out of the deal. I like Madden 25. Do I wish it was better? Yes. I am not a game changer. I don't get anything. So just because someone defends it doesn't mean they are getting something out of the deal. I know for a fact these game changers don't get much out of this. Every one of them I have followed want to help.
2. Maybe we are just old. We all look back at PS2 gen Madden as the Golden years. Were those game really that much better or are we the ones who are different? Back when I played those games I wasn't on websites. I didn't know when they were coming out. I didn't care how "sim" the game was. I just had fun. I was in my early 20's. I have changed. I want everything to be "sim". I used to just get a rubber basketball from Wal-Mart and play ball. Now I want the official NBA ball. LOL. I think the kids in college love Madden as much as we did. I would have never played a game like OOTP. Now I really love it.
I want the game to be great. I really do. But, I just wonder how we expect a company to make everyone happy. I have fun playing Madden 25 and expect to keep having fun.Comment

If you watch one of the D tackles on the first blocking example he's being double teamed, he has a clear path to Brady, but instead of breaking off tr block he stays on it never trying to get to the QB. He literally just focused on battling the double team while ignoring the path to the QB altogether. Poor.Comment

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
I agree and feel the same way. I don't think all those things worked great though. I remember many things frustrating me when I had Madden 06 for PS2. By then I was starting to want a more realistic game. I still didn't mess with sliders. I played default All-Pro. HA HA.I find a way (which has become exponentially more difficult) EVERY year to beat the most "sim" experience on and off field out of EA's Pro Football title and enjoy (and play it to death) it EVERY year...

Next gen has been a disappointment for me until Madden 13. That is the first current gen Madden that made me feel like I did in the PS2 days. Madden 25 has been the same. Those are the only games the new team as worked on so far. That is what gives me hope.
I think you are spot on about online. PS2 Madden didn't have a great online focus. They didn't have online franchise. They didn't have MUT. I think this has hurt the current gen Madden. They have been spread too thin. I don't blame them. You have to make money first and for most. I feel since Madden 13 they are focused more on gameplay and I have seen the fruit of their labor even if some can't.
That is why I feel good about next gen Madden. They could have repeated what they did current Gen with 06 and only focused on visuals. Now they are going gameplay first visuals second. Sorry for the Book response. LOLComment

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
I see what your saying. Were those 4 war in the trenches video's with Webber talking not from the gameplay camera? I know that wasn't 2 minutes but, it seemed like it was.They still showed 5V5 gameplay from the broadcast view that people play on. Madden hasn't shown any offense Vs. defense from the view guys play the game on.
Other next gen games that are not sports games have showed 20 to 30 minutes. The only point i'm trying to make is, 2K has show actual gameplay, from the view that we all play the game on. Even if it was only 2 minutes, it's 2 minutes more than what Madden has showedComment
