Madden NFL 25 Next Gen Video - War in the Trenches & Passing Pockets (QJB)

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches

Bro...if they put more penalties and bad snaps in the game...people will complain like no end...Plus anytime a sports videogame tries to implement these random sort of things it never works...I recall when Madden was riddled with PI calls to the point that all dudes would do is throw it up and get a PI...Now its almost the exact opposite...I never see them...occassionally in H2H...I just think its too difficult to implement a balance for when these things happen.

I mean how do they determine when a bad snap happens...Purely by numbers, NFL ratios?...I would be pissed to find out that some formula was in the game to cause every 33rd snap to be bad...I even think when interviewed a Dev mentioned something to the effect of having the CPU take over in that instance would cause more harm than good for those of us who play the game.

You can't hold Madden to a standard that no sports sim is doing...In the Show I have not sen any bean balls by the CPU...In 2k14 I don't think the CPU commits random hard fouls or gets technicals or plays Hack-a-Dwight. No sports game has been able to go completely organic...I don't think we are there yet...Its gonna be a while or more.

They could easily factor in real life NFL statistics to help them determine it or bring in those sports science guys to help

The QB footwork in this game is just........

Besides that, the line play looks better than CG

Well, while not perfect, today's video looked pretty good. Still not sure if I'm going to purchase, but am looking forward to seeing some actual gameplay now.

This thread is full of lols. For a few pages I forgot it was about that video.
I hope everyone who talks about "accepting mediocrity" is as critical of their own lives and lively hood as they are about this game. Never accept mediocrity.

All in all, bottom line is 13 days away this is all we are going to see. The game is going to play similar to current gen with improved pass rush, true step (2 players) and better A.i. And pass coverage.

Will improved coverage stop TEs from running wild? won't know until 11/15
Will improved a.i. Stop money plays?- maybe at first but with the internet money plays are inevitable to an extent.
Will new targeting system stop nano blitz? see above

If you haven't liked the game. You won't like it this year. Rex said he's moving it in a sim direction, made a lot of promises. Maybe you trust him maybe you don't. Only time will tell.

Lastly on the ppl complaining about EA "over selling or over stating features" I'm not saying it's right, but what do u guys do for a living lol? If the boss ask for a report do u tell them it's only "ok work, but it'll be better next time" or do you present that report like it's the best work of your life and let the boss formulate their opinion...I'm jut saying.

Lol. So true. I know no one ever oversells themselves on Resume's. Ha ha.

Seriously though I'm actually glad I won't get the game until the 22nd because I'm going Xbox1. That will give me a week to see what the PS4 guys think about it after playing the real game .

Lol. If you turn work into your boss as "the best work of your life" and it continually disappoints, I'd say the boss will eventually find someone better to actually get the job done right and to his satisfaction.

So... Is this Giant blob with the tiny head supposed to be Tom Brady?

Here is pretty much the same photo in real life. 13brady silo.jpg

Whatever happened to the animations from E3 with RG3 in the pocket scanning the field. Hopefully next year they fix the quarterback animations. It's clear that the o-Line / d- line interactions have been built from the ground up. I think the whole game should've been built from the ground up. Too many ugly current gen animations.

I guess I should clarify. I'm comparing the player model to real life, they aren't even close, proportions aren't even in the ball park. It looks very amateurish.

Love how his face ask morphs into his shoulder pads. And how he looks like a Koopa troopa from the Mario movie.

Whatever you do, don't look at the footwork in the video. You'll wonder where the skates are...

Wish we could get through to EA Sports that they have to replace the movement / footwork in the game. It's a game of movement, if you don't get that right, then everything else will suffer.

I tell my boss last week's report was obviously flawed, but I've listened to his criticisms, and this week's is the best report ever. My use of True Facts (tm) and Infinity Font (tm) will change the way reports are written. Last week's report was riddled with logical inconsistencies, flimsy fabrications, fudged statistics, and terrible abuses of the English language, but this week's is a marvel of flawless thinking and writing. I've literally doubled the time devoted to report writing, a wise decision that will ensure top quality reports for weeks to come.

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 ha

Yeah I made a mistake. Brain Cramp on my end. My bad

Well, I've been reading this thread throughout the day. I got to page 23. My eyes hurt.

Anyway, on bad snaps, penalties and tournament players:

If they're worried about tournament players, why don't they take out all penalties? Or do they disable them completely while playing? I honestly don't know.

But, how do you implement a simulation/casual experience? Have one simple setting in the options menu that enables these features that the casuals/tournies don't want.

For snaps? You can have it random and give lineman a snap rating (my preference). You can put a small outline of a "hit box" where the snap has to go for it to be good, and the player has to use the right stick to keep it in there and snap it. You could incorporate both of these too, so good snappers are much easier to aim, and the snaps don't get crappy when they're really exhausted.

Re: Madden 25 Next Gen PS4 Gameplay War In the Trenches

No offense to this guy but why are we getting updates from him and not EA?

And that Tom Brady build shows just how bad this game is. You can't even take the time to make Tom Brady look decent?
