    They look like sound guys to me with their equipment pointed towards the crowd noise?

    Not sure.

      Ball carrier cues sounds like what they did with catch mechanics last year, thinking truck will get you more yards but more chance to fumble, and there will be a cnservative option where you go down easier but hold onto the ball.

      Improved defensive AI, sign me up. Hopefully it's means better zone coverage and reaction along with true gap control duties.

      I'll reserve judgment on equipment bc we've only seen 3 players so far but new gloves are cool, but where are the lip guards(AB and Von wear them), mid forearm bands, single arm sleeves, speedflex helmet(Von Miller wears). Hopefully we see more tonight
      I forgot about the improved zone coverage's the AI needs. I know Rex quoted someone as got you covered on that request on Twitter.

        But I agree they need to fix it now if u press or tap the stiff arm the player doesn't even extend their arms out.
        .

        Part of the problem is they dont give us straightforward tools to tone features down or jack them up to our liking, my tastes are usually not EA's and were stuck with theirs without a solution most times.

          I'm not going to get excited about this yet. I still want to hear what they have improved in Franchise mode. Also it looks at least for right now that the only new equipment they added were gloves.

            That's what I see too. Madden 16 had improved sideline/endzone interactions so I would hope that they wouldn't regress.
            --------------------------------
            I'm excited to hear more about the improved A.I. and more franchise information. M16 was the first Madden that I've boughten since 2011 and I was pleased with the game. I am optimistic about what's to come.

              Hoping for the addition of that stuff to the existing modes, rather than time having to be spent rebuilding stuff we already had. Really like the structure of CFM at the moment, just needs to be built out further.

                Anyone who loved Madden 16 must be pumped for Madden 17.

                Simple as that.

                As long as visual cues can be turned off (like they always are) I am good to go. Clean screen for me only. Defensive camera to play defense, improved franchise mode, better AI.

                Give me Madden 16 with better AI and a fully functional franchise mode and I am good to go.

                Not much to ask.

                    I actually really like Cfm, we just need full editing capability, and more features and control. Dont start over, just give us more options that allow the user to tailor it to their liking.

                        My guess it will be more of a hype trailer...with short replays of people cutting (new run addition) and defensive hits. Similar to last year not actual people playing..

                          Lol. I been waiting for the stiff arm to work in madden for TWENTY YEARS!!! Lol. Or, whenever they first implemented it. Of course, it shouldn't work every time, but legit, if I like stiff arming fools and I spend my xp on stiff arm, my 95 stiff arm RB should absolutely lay out a 5'10 190 lb CB. U know? Lol. U ever play NFL game day back in the day? Now, THAT was a stiff arm! I remember the sound effect, 'jeBOW!!' Lol. That was a little arcadey, of course, and I don't want that, either, but it was so rewarding to set your RB up at the right angle on an incoming defender and 'jeBOW!!' In madden, it has ALWAYS felt like the stiff arm starts to trigger the animation, and then u still get tackled. U rarely actually break the tackle. So, I'm def curious as to how well this is implemented, as I used to be a big fan of running the ball, but when jukes and stiff arms and trucks never work, it just feels so empty.
                          My issue with stiff arm is, even with a 99 stiff arm power back, most of the time i try it, my guy fumbles. So i just quite even trying to use it.
                          Yup, i said it !

                            Yeah, no reason to expect much else until any webcasts/E3/blogs.

                              even then, EA don't have a booth at E3.

                                They don't need one, they have EA Play same time, same city, I think it's in LA.
