Man we've had so many interviews throughout the years about 3 year plan, doing this, doing that, that I honestly don't know how anyone can have faith in their words at this point. I need to see it to believe it as they've burned that bridge.

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
Who's accepting it? Maybe some do. Not me. I just can't do anymore than some GC's are. So I'm going to make lemonade out of lemons. I'm not even saying Madden is terrible. I'm just saying that it is what it is. I guess I had different next gen expectations. I didn't expect the football game we've all wanted. I expect to see more move that way. Until I play the game myself it's speculation anyway.
As far as the direction they are going it sounds good. Though like I mentioned in one of my last post. They sound good in theory, but never deliver as expected or promised. I want EA to shut me and everybody up. Trust me I know we all want that. Problem is it won't be for at least another year or two. At least I hope we are all shut up by then.Comment

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
That's great JD, im glad they did improve the Dline/Oline animation gameplay. Imo I thought it actually looked better, still looks stiff but better. BUT... the one concern about EA and their staff of Dev's is, are they just going to work on one problem area each year??? What I mean is, it looks like they focused all their man power and talent in just one of the many issues that Madden has lacked!! Like for instance, is that all they can handle in a 1 year cycle??
That's horrible if you ask me.. So each year they will fix one thing that Madden lacks? Next up is what? CB/WR animations??? So by the time they get everything right there will be another Next Gen console coming out?? Its sad that this stuff should have been fixed a long time ago!! this is not new stuff, 2K has done this type of animations 10+ years ago?! How long is it going to take for them to finally catch up?? That's the real question.. People are getting tired of waiting for EA to finally catch up! When?
Physics has been worked on for the last 2 yrs and will continually be worked on.
The days of putting in protak and taking it out the next year is gone, we were told.Comment

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
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...
Head to head play certainly has its flaws, but at least they affect all users more or less equally and don't prevent anyone from agreeing to play fairly. There still is a game there. Solo play is now "Compete with Yourself Mode" (32 team control) or "Beat Your Nephew at Checkers Mode" (vs CPU). That pretty much guts the experience.Comment

Why madden keeps looking like a cartoon the graphics dont look next gen it looks like a small upgrade from cg .. When is madden going to look photo realistic?.. Thank god ea dont have exclusive nba rights because if they did we would of never known how good a nba game can look on next gen like nba 2k14 ..madden only gets away with this garbage because theres no other football games out ...madden would of fell like nba live if they didnt buy the exclusive license .. Do u guys remember when nba live was the most popular basketball game and 2k was the underdog? I do!!! I was i live junkie but 2k took over by making a better game then live every year .. They took it nobody gave 2k anything ..i say that to say this ea needs to step they game up if they want to take it back .. ,Comment

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
Exactly. I know there are issues. I'm just not going to be one of these overly critical guys. It's cute to criticize some game changers but, they have actually made a difference. Constantly bashing every little problem in the game and always bringing up 2k football won't do anything but, drive EA away from these forums
I don't even think most of the fanboys care about or even like football that much...They are more concerned with finding every little imperfection and jumping on a bandwaggon to complain, criticize and outright disrespect the guys and gals who work on the game. There is a way to tactfully want change and still get your point across in a way that will be heard. But I think they actually want EA to feel some sort of pain or leave these forums...The fanboys would be fine with that because they really don't care about the game improving.
EA devs don't care what these fanboys say about 2K...I recall one of them even saying in response to the NFL agreement and chatter about 2K..."people need to Deal With it"...which is a very cordial way of saying **** You Fanboy. I don't blame them and honestly I've seen threads on the 2K forum locked when there is too much complaining...I don't agree with that and do not advocate that here but its quite interesting that you can complain for 300 pages here about Madden but let 5-6 people have a complaint about 2K and that thread is locked with the quickness. Then the person locking the thread will try and play it off like "you guys are too emotional"...when in reality he/she is the only person who seems to catch feelings...Things that make ya go hmmm.Comment

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
Last thing and then I'm out. Lol. It's probably difficult to decide what do work on from year to year. So many on here prioritize so many things. Some what 100% sim gameplay with realistic penalties ext. (I'm in that group) some want photo realistic uniforms and graphics, some want an extremely deep franchise, some want perfect online, some MUT, some crowds and atmosphere. Some want it all lol. The list goes on and on. This is what I get when I read comments. We all have different opinions of what the perfect football game is and we want Madden make that game for all of us. Can anyone do that? Ha haComment

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
I agree 1000% with you. Unfortunately there are more 2k fanboys here than actual football fans so they are stuck on just hating EA because we all know EA is the devil ((sarcasm).

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
You do remember Madden 06 for 360 don't you? There was nothing port about it. That was the biggest problem with it. It was a bare bones game that started from the ground up. It would have been much better had it been a port. Ha haComment

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches
Over all, when you pause on an image of the pocket, it forms nicely. But in motion, the players are still doing weird twists, and shifts. Watch 62 in the back. What kind of footwork is this? There is a ballerina in that man just begging to get out. Edit: The gif is too fast, watch the video at 37 sec to see what I mean.
