It would be awesome to edit guys in CFM. That way we can stop players from being way too overrated.

They also showed a play on the low throw to a curl where the DB behind the WR did the "interception animation even though I am directly behind the WR," which isn't cool.

this was kinda addressed on this blog https://www.easports.com/madden-nfl/...den-16-defense

Play Ball (Ball Hawk) is back and has been heavily revised to ensure the most aggressive path possible to the ball. As with past years, the user plays the ball by holding the Y/Triangle button as soon as the pass is released.
Play Ball is the best way to challenge the receiver for the catch, but comes at the risk of triggering a catch animation behind the receiver and giving up a big play.

Wish they would have shown the rest of the play.. just to see if players go after it or do the "end of play" animations.

It did look like Kuechly started going after the ball. I just worry it could end up with something similar to the thing that used to happen where you'd get hit as you throw and the ball would float up in the air and constantly get picked by offensive lineman. I don't want to see a ton of pick opportunities on those plays. Now, if there was a lot of occasions where the ball was tipped around and the players had trouble locating and getting to the ball as it fell I'd love to see that.

I honestly cant believe they mocapped the ODB catch, oh wait, its EA, yes I can. Luckily we get 2 players with tats this year soooooo, thats good.

"Captured in game".

Yeah...okay.

EA continues to do that even though everyone knows better.

Not sure why its always called a gameplay trailer when there isnt a single second of actual gameplay footage in the videos.

"Captured in game" as in the cut scene that plays at the beginning of the game (see the Cam Newton/Luke Kuechly intro in Madden 15 that looks much better than the actual game).

Other than that I'm interested in seeing how the AI handles these catches. I don't want to catch manually because users already had a big enough advantage of the CPU, they don't need anything more.

Lastly, the QB throwing high/low has been the game for years now. I'm not sure how they're passing that one off as a new feature.

I was already leaning towards no buy and what little we saw/heard today didn't do anything to move me to the other side of the fence.

Gotcha. I see. Thanks for the heads up, I missed that point

Have to wait until we get some real gameplay vids but as of right now that EA conference did nothing to get me amped up for Madden 16

I was a little bummed with the Madden E3.. Was hoping to see some game footage or hear about the connected franchise.. Still trying to decide if I'm gonna buy the game. Haven't played Madden since like 2010, but since NCAA has been discontinued I'm wanting a football game on my PS4 :/

Theyve already lost me....again....unless a swell of a new info comes out on CCM and its not just things making the game easier for casual gamers.

Not gonna get hysterical or anything, but I honestly expected a bit more than this. I'm a realist, I know what Madden is. Still, I can't help but feel underwhelmed...especially after Rex's comments a few days ago. It is what it is.

The clips they showed definitely showcased some big improvements in WR/DB interactions.

I am absolutely looking forward to seeing footage of in-game action (as in someone holding a controller playing it on screen) from the booths in the upcoming days

If the AI controlled players play to their ratings and take full advantage of the play the ball/play the receiver mechanics, I will be all-in on trying to get back into online CFM

Re: Madden NFL 16 | Official E3 Gameplay Trailer | PS4, Xbox One

i'd have much preferred the receivers ratings determining whether they go for aggresive catch, posession catch, etc. rather then just picking whatever you want. sounds really gimmicky

hey guys turns out they actually do!

from the blog

https://www.easports.com/madden-nfl/news/2015/madden-16-passing-game

WIDE RECEIVER AI TRAITS

Each WR has a new series of traits that determine which types of catches they look for when under AI control. This includes the RAC, Aggressive, and Possession traits. Throwing the right route to the right receiver and using catch mechanics linked to traits is a critical strategic component in Madden NFL 16.

AWESOME!!

This trailer really did nothing for me. Long QB sleeves still look terrible, drop backs are terrible, and did they really get rid of Nantz and Simms?! Also, why dont they focus more on the gear and player appearances rather than what 2 guys in the game that have tattoos now? And lastly, I HATE that they put that catch in the game! Just like the Tyree catch, thats a once in a lifetime catch! Why would you put that in the game?! Like we're ever going to see that exact catch again...I'm pretty disappointed in this, and I'll pry end up getting Batman to hold me over till 2k or Live come out.

As long as we, the user, do not have to trigger the different catches and different ways of defending a pass, this looks really really cool.

My thing is will this game be worth the money? Or am I gonna be happier just spending $20-30 on 15 and playing that. Can't decide based on what I've read..
