    ah yes, the invisible mouth piece grab. He's taking charades to a whole new level.

      You will and I have but I didn't see any of this until LTMagic pointed it out to me. I know I've seen Aldon Smith signal to Willis and Brooks, and Willis signal to Bethea.

        This stuff just needs to be all over the field more. It's a little thing but it's always bothered me how the wide receivers get set. They just kinda shuffle to there spot instead of running over and getting set. Worst part is they have the animation in the game. It's just not consistent. Which has been one of Madden's biggest problems. Consistency. I see things I like at times, they just don't happen often enough.

          True but if you noticed, they did fix the WR foot alignment.

            It would be cool if he actually had a mouthpiece to grab. I was really hoping for mouthpieces this year.

                Attention to detail is a must for Next Gen so It's good to see stuff like this. Now if they would just add names to the back of sideline players & give them their correct socks (instead of every sideline player having high socks smh) then they could be on to something!

                  True but certain areas still need a lot of work (sideline player detail, woman & children added to the crowd, cheerleaders, cameramen & people in the crowd not wearing shorts & t-shirts in snow games, etc..) These are all things that need to be addressed that hurt the immersion. Hopefully next year Living Worlds will be truly flushed out.

                    Yes it would be nice to have those but there's a lot of on the field stuff that needs done first.

                      Re: Has anyone noticed the pre-play fidgets now?

                      I'd like to see players move more loosely even when they're not moving if you know what I mean. Like instead have a player standing there frozen with the famous Madden "hunched over" stance, have players looking around ready to move. Just give them life instead of making them seem like robots.

                      At least they're doing SOMETHING tho. I got so tired of seeing every lineman walk up to the line and get set the same exact way everytime. Looks like they're trying to move away from that. Still disappointed they don't have that pocket presence animation shown in the BS RG3 "gameplay" trailer. Never seen that in a football game before.

                        Nice little addition, makes the game seem more realistic.

                          Is the way they move here in pre and post play more like what you're describing? This is Madden 15 but looks like it plays differently on all pro.

                            Of course. Obviously gameplay comes 1st but I don't think the things I mentioned would hold the gameplay back from being improved lol. Besides they have different departments who work on different parts of the game. These things are more of a presentation issue. This is not directed at you at all but i find it funny that anytime someone brings anything up another than gameplay it tends to get shunned because it's not as important lol. I just feel that it's time we get the whole package (gameplay, presentation, details, etc..) being that this is NEXT GEN that's all

                              Nah what I'm describing isn't in the game yet. Again 15 is way better than what we got in 25, but not at the level I'm thinking of.

                                Did you see that video yet though, just curious whet you thought of it. QB accuracy or in accuracy rather, is shown here, as is the WR animation for it.
