Re: Madden NFL 16 Screenshots

Never understood the screenshot release thing. Show me the game in motion...not some screenshot from a replay or cut scene. Show me 10 or 15 second video clips of a run...a pass...anything that shows what has changed since last year gameplay wise.

Probably won't see any game play videos until after E3, which is June 16th through June 18th...

The should/bicep area where the jersey finishes just kills me. It looks atrocious

Re: Madden NFL 16 Screenshots

Is that the same dirt smear on the left bicep every player got in Madden 15 after a few plays? Glad to see that still in the game. (Sarcasm)

Yeah, what is that?

I just don't see how people can say that screen of Andrew Luck looks great. The numbers and stripes on his jersey don't even match the blue stripe and logo on the helmet.

Now, taking a look at Luck in daylight in real life, I think you'll see what I am talking about:



The colors in Madden never pop. And this is a new-gen photo??? Notice how vibrant and alive the colors look in real life, and these numbers have no trim around them, they're just one layer, but they pop out at you and all the blue on the uniform and helmet match.

I bet I could get a similar/same look of Luck in Madden 15 as it is in the 16 shot. It's not that it's terrible, but the needed improvement in lighting and color were obviously needed.

In this game, whites are gray, blacks are charcoal grayish, every other color is a washed out tint. The lighting is dead and flat, the grass looks dead and looks more like a field of x-links than it does grass with the dirt way over-pronounced. All things you'd expect from a game made in 2007, especially the lighting.

In a nutshell, they didn't even try this season.

Re: Madden NFL 16 Screenshots

It looks like they used an Instagram filter but like someone else said, the graphics are the least of my concerns.

The problem I have is the tout "everything you see on Sunday" except the Brace that Gronk is wearing isn't even right.

Such awesome graphics! #SarcasmFont

And those gloves he's wearing aren't even in the game

I admittedly can barely tell the right equipment from the wrong most of the time but I think it does seem to have an attention to detail ripple effect throughout the game. So even when I catch myself thinking "gloves, we talking about gloves, not player movement or XP progression but gloves", I'm reminded of the old Van Halen brown M&Ms story which puts this issue in context and shows its' relevance.

There are a lot of brown M&Ms in the Madden bowl.

Re: Madden NFL 16 Screenshots

I can agree that there are more important things than graphics and proper color, but on the other hand when the colors and graphics in general are wrong and you have to look at it over multiple years, it gets annoying...

Uniform errors also, I cannot stand to play the Steelers, for example, because their sleeve striping is wrong, in that EA has it wrapping around the whole sleeve..

I dread seeing the new Browns uniforms cause the EA track record pretty much guarantees something will be wrong; the Buccaneers uniforms are wrong in their pewter color - yes it is dark, but not so dark it is Cleveland Brown color..

Really, EA/Tiburon couldn't recreate water, so they just cut out the cut screen where a player is being given water from the water boy...lol..That is the EA/Tiburon way I think...I could be wrong though..Holy cow, get DICE to make madden, lord knows they were able to create all sorts of water in BF4..

I think bad uniform combinations in the draft classes stick out a lot more than wrong or missing equipment for current players in my opinion. A lot of equipment is lacking and uniforms don't really bother me since I don't really notice unless it's side by side with the real thing.

Re: Madden NFL 16 Screenshots

Personally, I thought the Luck screenshot looked pretty good. However, with that being said, late afternoon lighting looked good in Madden 15...I want to see some other shots in order to determine if some graphical difference does indeed exist between Madden 15 and Madden 16. And, with regard to equipment, it is in need of a significant update. Nike is the NFL's main supplier now...it shouldn't be too hard to get mass amounts of their equipment into the game.
