I thought I was the only one who noticed this. I'm not quite sure why things like this keep popping up in the game.

Hey, btw does Earl have his face scanned? Drafted him on Draft Champions and he looked like a generic, then in play now he kinda looks like him, but not quite right. If it's a gen, then it's different from the one on DC.

This was brought up in the Generic Face Scan thread as well and I think the explanation was that there isn't a generic face scan with long hair like that so basically everyone is Clay Matthews. I've noticed more than a few guys with his face as well.

We unfortunately don't have a ton of options for guys with long hair. Also Earl Thomas is not a face scan.

How is this a "thing"? They should be able to scan in at least 80-90% of players, just travel to each team and setup their scanning booth. If not that, then manually edit the players in. All we really need is the front of their face to be correct, they are wearing helmets. Players without scanned heads don't need any helmetless cutscenes.

I just want to say, I enjoy sports games, and I am thankful that EA puts out a game every year. With that said, they need to remove the "it's in the game" motto they have. I enjoy the "little things" about sports. Like having the correct gear on players (Madden 16 still doesn't have proper player gear, even the shoes aren't correct, they should be multi team colors) or OCs/DCs (at least), a practice squad, formation subs, etc. in Franchise. Am I the only one that feels like it's mocking you, whenever an EA sports game would say it at the loading screen? Until, they actually use it as their standard for making a game, then they just need to drop it. Just my two cents.

Hey thanks for the conformation. That's what I thought, as puzzling as it may be, that probably the best FS in the game today (rated below Weddle from SD) doesn't have his face in the game.

Thanks Kane! I thought it was an error, but it is what it is apparently so I get it now and can now happily live with it til next year. :-)

Re: Clay Matthews is Luke willson

Didn't know that Earl didn't have a scan. He should, of course! Still do-able?

But for Luke, I saw that too. Blond long hair instead of black/dark brown? Maybe he spent too much time at the beach.

Because this takes a lot of time to do and most of the consumer base would bitch and complain that the art department spent their entire development cycle just scanning players. This instead of working on new animations, maybe adding parts to a new halftime/postgame show, etc. Also not all of these players have the time to get face scanned. They are working 8-9 months out of the year depending on playoffs then they will want to go onto vacations and spend time with their families.

Can't they just hire a group of artists to create models? Lots of pc sports titles have freelance community modders that do that stuff for free...

This x 100. At this point, with all these things pretty transparent, consumers really need to start grasping that when it comes to things like video games and movies there is a lot of things that the director/developer would have liked to do but simply did not have time to do. This is universally true for any project that operates on a budget and a fixed term. Trust me, the developer would like to have that face scan more than you, but it's not there for probably a million possible reasons. It's fine not to like it, I seriously doubt anyone does like it. But enough the "rabble rabble rabble" about how you feel cheated or something, it's not helping anything.

It's just turning off developers more from wanting to put in maybe an extra hour here or there to squeeze in one or two more things. If I was in their position I'd do the bare minimum. People are going to be whinging no matter how grand in scope and design it may be. Lets try to be a little more supportive and provide constructive criticism rather than just "wah I want this". Thanks for your cooperation.

I wish would gladly trade Matthews for Willson...

Anyone notice WR John Brown on the Cardinals has dreadlocks on Madden 16? I do not believe he has dreads in real life

I mean we'll just have to agree to disagree. I get that NFL players spend a ton of time with their job, they also get what equates to winning lottery as their yearly income (even the lower level guys that are pulling 350K). Professional athletes get paid fairly for what they do. What I was saying, is that EA should come to them. If EA isn't willing to do that, which I completely understand, then they should just put a picture to a generic face. It can be done, there are plenty of examples of it in other games, PES being one that I know of. Also, a lot of the PC crowd does it themselves as well.
