    You have to recognize some of the improvement here with animations and "football plays." I think if you can't you are close to being stubborn.

    Sure, there are still the head scratching moments when defenders look like they are witnessing the game, don't interact and the snap back into that zombie unison walk back to the sideline etc.. But, there are better looking movements, just not spectacular.
    Being kind, one to another, never disappoints.

      The list of head scratching moments is much longer. If you're happy with the few improvements, yeah, those that are not may appear stubborn.

      I think we all see the improvements. Some of us are just not happy with them.

        Then I guess I'm stubborn.

        Because I want better player AI that actually act like a football player. In a football game.

        If being stubborn means I don't want defenders standing around watching, or the game to turn into a 1v1 instead of 11v11 with some of these animations or with the tackling, linebackers tripping instead of filling holes, more individuality in player responses and how they do things, players that are aware of what's happening (not shedding outside when the ball carrier has cut inside you)...things that have been in this game for years (literally) and still not fixed (and borderline improved, because they still have the same negative impacts on play development)...

        ...That's fine, I'll be "stubborn". I've been called worse.

          I would love to hear Rex's response to a question along this line, about the 1v1 vs 11v11 POV for creating Madden. I'm convinced taking a 1v1 approach and accepting gameplay ideas from others with this POV is another key factor keeping Madden from becoming a complete football sim video game. The lack of representing the team concept of football with regard to the AI/CPU controlled players, has a ripple effect that diminishes the entire game.

            EA is the worst of the worst in that regard.... So yes... 2000% warranted.

              You're so "pro-Madden". I'm curious...If Madden made an absolutely horrendous game. I mean just COMPLETELY dropped the ball...would you honestly come on this site and say "Aww man EA really effed this up this year!!!"?????? Serious question.

              I actually think the game looks great myself. The running & tackling animations need a lot of work but it looks good to me. Granted there are some inexcusable (especially for next gen) A.I. mishaps but the game is damn pretty.

                I'm not "calling" you anything. The reality is that the game does look better, and to deny it would be denying just because we are stubborn or blind.

                I dislike Madden football. I have since the first xbox was released and from there very little was done to the game. And then through the next generation the game was slightly improved, but claimed to always be groundbreaking. And now this generation the exact same thing is happening. But I can't deny the videos I've seen aren't better looking than past years.

                  It is better than past years. But overall, it's still not where it should be in the year 2014. Comparing Madden to itself, it's no doubt it's took some strides. But comparing Madden to other sports games, it's embarrassing.

                    I never said YOU were calling me stubborn. I said I've been called worse things than stubborn.

                    The play development and resolution looks very much the same to me. A big reason are those head-scratching things you mentioned in the prior post of yours I quoted still in the game.

                    So, to me, the overall look and feel of a play is largely the same.

                      Let me just say I've played every football game by EA & 2K since '92. I never had a psx so wasn't able to play Gameday, never played Fever, played some QBC on N64. I would say Madden 07, 08, 09, & 11 were some of the worst football games out of all those. Madden 05 & 25 are my favorites. 2K5 is third for me, then probably 2K1 on DC, then I'd say M10 is 4th. I could see 15 coming in second or close to 05.

                        2k5 is #1 for me...then 2k4....

                        Im hoping Madden 15 is #3.....
