What happened to the 49er CB on that Seahawk TD? He just stood around and didn't even contest the pass at all. Ugh....that stood out like a sore thumb.

Game looks great, but these sorts of things just make you scratch your head...

That Zoom cam makes all the difference in the world! It really gives you the feeling of being on the field which I love. It makes the game look so much better than the far away "God" view lol.

-Russell Wilson is too dark
-Why is every player on the sidelines wearing HIGH SOCKS? There aren't that many players in the league who wear high socks & it really looks awkward when you see most players on the field wearing medium or low socks. At least make the sideline players wear medium socks so they'll blend in better. EA please fix this!

Man it's just the same ole madden with fresh coat of paint on a dirty surface. How the running backs just go straight up after they get the ball no lean or natural movement. Still see sliding. Lineman let his guy pass rigjt by him and didn't even try to protect on the play. The cb run the route before the receiver even break his route but still didn't challenge the ball in the air. I thought they fixed that smh. It's like this dudes don't even know football at ea. THE PLAYERS STE STILL UP BUT EVERYBODY JUST STOP WITJ THE SAME SINCRONIZE MOTION. Kam chancellor or earl Thomas are head hunters and would never just stop. The fact the game look better makes everything looks 20* worse. Please EA I beg of you to let 2k make sports game cause you guts been sucking eggs since y'all got the nfl rights. Will not support this thrash this year

Pretty horrifying how far back gang tackling has gone since the days of pro-tak. It seems as soon as one player engages in a tackle animation other defenders simply stand aside and wait for the tackle to either be completed or tackle after the runner breaks free. Essentially there appears to be no gang tackling, which is just unacceptable. Maybe I'm mistaken, but it seems pretty obvious in this video.

EDIT: This is a pic of what I mean. It is just terrible. The tackling animation engaged here is a long one in which the ballcarrier is struggling to break free, and three 49er defenders just stand by unwilling to help clean things up and maybe even rip the ball out. Totally passive defending.

My biggest complaint out of the all the videos is the fact there is no gang-tackling. I don't understand why its not happening. Hopefully its there and EA just needs to do something to unlock it.

So.......did they take out True Step ? Because I see a hell of a lot of turning on a dime like nobody on the field have any weight to them what so ever.

They can continue to "pretty" this game up all they want with new player models, lighting, and scorebugs but until they address fundamental issues with tackling and overall movements that just feel unhuman it will continue to be a non-buy for me.

I get that gang tackling is lacking - no argument there. Visuals and players look great. Field/stadium look great. Game at times looked lifelike. Will be very interested in seeing the demo later this year.

Its another no buy for me....3 years in a row now. Football gaming is dead

I didn't like how at 2:55 Frank Gore has a HUGE hole to run through. And instead of using his incredible footwork to mini sidestep his blockers to the right of him & burst through the hole, he instead ends up changing direction, running towards the left sideline in a lightning fast, choppy 2-3 steps to the left, right into the arms of a tackler. It could have been 6! Or at the least a 10 yard gain.

That really concerns me. That could ruin it for me. I miss the days of Madden (circa 2002, 2003) where ballcarriers weren't always at full sprints. Where not pressing turbo slows your steps, and allows your blocks to develop, and even defenders to over-pursue and even allowing you to cut it back or upfield. SMH

I'm debating the same. I skipped last year but was really looking forward to this year.

Ok, so like I mentioned on page one.. No gang tackles.. I'm not going crazy here. This is a big letdown for me. Graphics look great. Animations, relatively the same.. Ever so slightly better, but still stiff. Removed gang tackling.. How do you remove the essence of football.. realistic tackling.

And Rex actually issued a challenge to 2k? Just sayin. 2k must be like.. "Alrighty then, easy pickens".

I love the presentation at the end of that quarter. Just like in a real game, they show the biggest plays and the score before the "commercial break". Tons to like, tons to hate...looking forward to August though.

Don't forget those helmets in the grass. Love that.
