Colin Kaepernick in Madden NFL 25 vs. Madden NFL 15

[Lilgoosy]

if you look a this that i am about to tell you, you'll be maybe a little mad:

look on CK7 right shoulder, you can see the shadow of his helmet actually projecting very well on his shoulder pad but ... look again, there's a piece of this shadow floating, a black portion of shadow that looks trimmed from another screenshot and copied on this one.

anyone is noticing that?

Wow!!!! Looks amazing. Let's hope the rest of the game looks this good.

That looks amazing, wow!

[TreyIM2]

I'm saying WOW for now. There is no faking the funk in how gorgeous that screenshot is yet I had skepticism along with that WOW because of EA's shenanigans over the years. I'm going to pull up that alleged in-game screenshot of RGIII from last year's pre-game hype to compare it for myself and check the actual Madden 25 version of him, as well.

That said, I DO think that Colin pic is real deal Holyfield based on this being a 2nd gen game for EA on the now current gen systems and I also trust Chris' word. I think with the last Madden, either they really thought they were pulling a fast one or during development, something got funky with the tech and they had to sacrifice things for the final product, which happens a lot when devving games especially when unable to push release dates back. Not to mention Madden is annually released so short dev time.

So let me explain this to you guys. that RG3 Screenshot was just an example of what the Ignite Engine was capable of. I'm sure that these improvements have been in the works ever since Ignite was created. Either way the improvements they showed alone in this screenshot have me all aboard the hype train.

Now EA just needs to add NFL Superstar Mode from Madden 06 and 07 and I'll be even more happy.

I do see the shadow mark you speak of which reinforces my belief that their is something unfitting about that screenshot.

CK7 could very well have been supeimposed but there will be more pix to come and we can do comparisons then.

That looks great and has me cautiously optimistic.

I'm going to be a skeptic and say this is not from gameplay like the 25 screen shot is.

cosign!!!!

I think the pic looks fantastic. Most people would guess it's real and it's a huge improvement from last year.

I understand the skeptics but it does amaze me how much hate/negativity is stored up for EA at times. Studies have shown the people don't generally sit on the fence about things. They either love them or hate them and they can switch categories and skip neutral. So many of us were disappointed at the beginning of the PS3/360 cycle with Madden (this definitely includes me) and the goodwill from the PS2 days turned to hate. EA, right or wrong, has to fix Madden in a big way. We should all be hoping this will happen and this screenshot is a small step in the right direction.

I want to b happy for EA but they just have to start on the inside of the game and figure out how to make the game feel like football. Meaning franchise mode needs to b done right with all the fixing with beeing able to edit all players and coaches. I mean as if now we kan even put a hat on our coaches. Its so much missing frm the inside of the game that will give it the next level feel. I hope this all new player profiles mean we will see superbowls and probowls along with the year it was won set up like NBA2k does with keeping up with their player award history. I hope the speak in this as well and have banners of your wins in our francise as we play.

This is probably an in-game screenshot, but it is a screenshot of a replay. That's where the 'motion blur' comes into play in the background. FIFA introduced motion blur in the background of replays to give the perception of depth 4-5 years ago. I think madden has used motion blur for replays in the past, but I'm not sure. So, for my clarity, I believe this IS an 'in-game' screenshot. But, it is an 'in-game' screenshot of a replay which never shows the 'true' look and feel of the actual gameplay. I'm pleasantly surprised with this screenshot, though, and the level of detail looks fabulous. Once again, u never know what real gameplay visuals will look like. And, for the last several years, madden has always made more trailers of replays than actual gameplay because replays look better. Perhaps, they actually have tighter graphics on replays, I don't know. But, that rg3 trailer from last year looked great because it was a replay. If u had seen the same footage from the actual gameplay perspective, we would've all said, 'eh. Looks good, but I want to see more detail.' I think this screenshot should hope to show they have worked a ton on the visuals. However, I am definitely a sim guy, and I actually could care less about these visuals. I'm still waiting for realistic gameplay out of the box without having to tweak sliders for months. So, hopefully, they put at least a week or 2 of development into making the players move and play more realistically while spending the other months working on graphics. Lol.

Not that intrigued with tattoos being displayed. I would like to know if the realism that simstyle players as myself will finally be present throughout the game. I realize that this is a Social Media game now but the simstyle community would like a game based on realism.

Re: Colin Kaepernick in Madden NFL 25 vs. Madden NFL 15

I'm honestly impressed. Not with just the tattoos, but also with the player body shapes look a lot better. Damn, the pic made Madden 25 like it was on PS2.

Re: Colin Kaepernick in Madden NFL 25 vs. Madden NFL 15

Hopefully they have a generic set of tattoos that we can use on created players and NFL players who are missing them...

Great Shot tho

I'm laughing at you guys that are trying to convince yourselves that the pictures are CGI. It has been confirmed that they are taken from actual gameplay by an editor on this website who has already gotten to see multiple screen shots. Relax and be happy that the game looks as good as it does.
