More Madden NFL 15 Details Revealed

Re: More Madden NFL 15 Details Revealed

Pretty excited about defensive player lock camera (if it's like NCAA/Backbreaker) as it's something that I've wanted in Madden for a while now. In my opinion, that camera feels much more natural and should be default for online play (obviously not for local). I'm also excited on the emphasis on defense as a whole in Madden. Offense has always had a distinct advantage in the game.

That said, I will remain cautiously optimistic. I didn't buy the last two iterations, but I think EA has the right personnel to turn the franchise in the right direction. I know some don't want to hear this, but we have come a long what in a short time. With fan pressure, we've seen an improvement in presentation (NFL films cams, fly-overs, etc.), the introduction of real-time physics, and connected careers. I think as things begin to be more fine tuned, we'll get closer and closer to the experience we've all demanded to years now.

Was hoping to hear about a vastly improved animation system but oh well...

Hopefully MNF, TNF, and SNF have their own presentations. I'd like them to have their own commentators but I know that's a stretch.

As long as it's the Defensive Player lock.

Re: More Madden NFL 15 Details Revealed

Will online CFM games even have the presentation? My money is on NO and therefore I won't see any of the stuff anyways.

Presentation overhaul has me interested. We'll see.

Could this FINALLY be the Presentation Upgrade that will bring Madden back to the forefront of sport gaming? Will this be the Halftime Show to shut the mouths of Chris Berman's 2K5 masterpiece admirers? (Myself included). I want highlights from other games, game breaks, dynamic in-game commentary on other games taking place, and camera angles that make me look twice to make sure im not watching a real NFL broadcast. Excited for the first time in 3 years about Madden. I'll believe it when i see it.

Re: More Madden NFL 15 Details Revealed

New camera angles is almost insulting. Tilt the camera a degree in any directions and it's new. But whatever. It's a bullet point. Not a sticking point.

Someone nailed it. Player movement has been my deal breaker since 06. I need more than a CGI Kuechly to get me back on the wagon.

Was hoping to hear about a vastly improved animation system but oh well. Improved defense sounds good. New presentation is cool. Dynamic pregame and half-time shows sound nice but what happened to post game? Lol. Don't care for using others to help with my play calling. Only used Ask Madden once just to see what the hell the CPU would pull up as choices in a situation to see what it was about but not to use in my gameplay.

Oh, improved graphics should be status quo but good to hear and I see the player model improvement in the trailer, if that is actually in-game.

(Dynamic pre-game and halftime shows) I want Madden 15 to shut me up about NFL 2K5 presentation. Does this mean we will finally get real highlights with commentary breaking down the action during halftime. Will we finally get to see highlights from other games going on around the league during season/franchise mode, or possibly highlights of other games going on around the league if we play the game on Sunday's (NFLToday). Lord knows I been posting on here to the devs for over 9 years asking for it.....

Re: More Madden NFL 15 Details Revealed

In terms of the graphics, when NBA 2k14 came out and everyone was blown away by the graphics and people questioned the graphics in Madden Next Gen, didn't Vic Lugo say the graphics weren't going to get much better and that the NBA game doesn't have all of the bells and whistles going on in the background that Madden does, i.e. Sidelines, more fans, etc?

I wonder how the graphics are going to be better than? Or was that just an excuse for the game not looking as good as other games on Next Gen and that this year will be on par with those?

Bingo. Just excuses.

agreed, though they have touted presentation and even "revolutionary presentation" in the past so I wont go full geek on it, but Im 100% more interested now than before I read about it
