Madden NFL 16: E3 Hands-On Preview

Re: Madden NFL 16: E3 Hands-On Preview

u sure you're not watching vids from last year?? I am a sim guy and a madden *****, and even I have to admit to seeing gang tackling on nearly every play. This particular aspect of the game looks nothing like 15, imo. I have been very impressed/happy with this aspect of the game from all the vids i've seen so far. Gang tackling def exists in 16. I've seen a few clips with 1 defender engaging the ball carrier, another coming to help, and a 3rd cleaning up the tackle. So, not sure how u missed it, but maybe take a look at some of the vids again.

i watched the 1st video that was posted a few days ago i think it was giants vs titans. Give me time stamps because when i watched that, i didnt see much of anything. I'd like to go back and check it out

That was the one with the long Jennings one, correct? If it was I remember that being one of the worst videos when it came to that and that video almost seemed like a different game compared to the others. Watch the "Madden 16 Draft Champions with Rex, Kolbe, & Sean" with the Chiefs and Giants. There's a nice gang tackle at around 9:40 as well as some good two man tackles throughout.

Here comes the yearly OS show, every year it's "the best ever", vast improvements. I'm taking the wait and see approach. Fooled me last year, ain't falling for it again until I can put a jury out on it myself through a rental.

Yeah, I'll for sure be taking a wait and see approach as well. It has been many years since I've felt this positive about Madden prior to release...but, like you I have been burned too many times in the past to just buy it day one again. I will be waiting at least a couple of weeks after release to hear what other people are saying before deciding on whether or not to purchase.

Re: Madden NFL 16: E3 Hands-On Preview

....Still no gang tackling ....

Do you think "gang tackling" means a scene from "Colors" in L.A. County where Bloods and Crips throw down gang signs and then shiv someone? Cause if so, you're right....that is still not in the game (CURSES!!! WHY EA? WHY DO YOU MOCK MY IDEAS AND CRUSH MY SOUL???? )

But there is clearly gang tackling in M16 if you mean more than one defender making an impact on the outcome of a tackle. I know I have seen several videos with the Devs talking specifically about it's improvements for M16 too...

Re: Madden NFL 16: E3 Hands-On Preview

While there are clearly some improvements,Madden is likely to always feel like what we've all experienced for many years.That probably won't change anytime soon.If you like the Madden brand of football it will likely get better for you.If you just haven't gotten that enjoyment it probably isn't going to turn you completely into a fan beyond playing it for a month and getting tired of it and going to something else.

It looks like a better Madden,yes,but nobody should expect anything more or it will likely disappoint.

Re: Madden NFL 16: E3 Hands-On Preview

Anyone know if you can still play from the defense point of view?
I haven't seen that camera angle in any of the videos so far and I'm hoping that they didn't remove it for Madden.

Thanks.

Re: Madden NFL 16: E3 Hands-On Preview

No answers on here. Just will have to play the wait and see game when it comes out.

They didn't take it out....
Also on one of the vids with Rex he accidently switched to D cam during a CPU fake snap.

Also watch the Pats Falcons game, definitely gang tackling there and there's also a nice big hit/decleater.

Re: Madden NFL 16: E3 Hands-On Preview

Connected Franchise was not unlocked on the show floor.

I didn't ask about injuries but I would guess they are disabled in Draft Champions as well.

Hey CM thanks for your feed back i have been asking and thought i kould get some feed back on this matter here. Thanks again bro.

Re: Madden NFL 16: E3 Hands-On Preview

Does anyone that has spent time with the game know if retractable roof stadiums actually have the ability to retract in CFM? I know you have the option in Play Now, would be a nice option for those who's favorite teams play in these type of stadiums.

No as in it's not in the game. Somebody who has seen the game mentioned that in the Player Card thread, that's what i was saying.
