Operation Sports Forums - View Single Post - OS Roundtable: Is Madden's Focus Where it Should Be?

Once again, I don't believe their focus areas have been bad - even in the past. The implementation is where it goes bad. Nothing really works right or it's sloppy or buggy. I'm not sure how anyone could be annoyed at what is being added to the game right now, but I certainly can understand why people are skeptical. We've heard things like this before, including last year with M25 on next gen. Pursuit angles, player sense, war in the trenches. Most of those things were "better", (somewhat), but they still didn't work right.

Personally, I'm impressed with Rex Dickson and a few of the other designers, but I am not impressed with the implementation each year. Higher quality and making sure the changes all work need to be just as much of a focus as the ideas that are going in.
