Madden NFL 25 now has authentic hard cuts at 45, 90, 135, and 180 degree angles to eliminate the swerve, the zig zag, and the unrealistic running.
2 articles now that have said that Zigzag running is no more.

Sounds a lot like what fifa tries to do with their dribbling mechanic.

Re: Run Free with Madden NFL 25 All New Precision Modifier

these may turn out to be solid improvements, but EA just kills themselves with their marketing campaign to the casual fans. They aren't the ones reading your blogs EA. I don't want to hear about crazy combo moves and heat seeker tackling wtf.

Well, at least it's sounds good, compared the EA blogs and trailer, which sounded and LOOKED so, very, very, bad.

Re: Run Free with Madden NFL 25 All New Precision Modifier

it does sound good, though the burst feature is what I thought auto sprint was for/ created to do. but if auto-sprint is gone and the right trigger is for the burst...whats the normal sprint button?

Remember, two of the three articles played a pre-alpha build.

The GCers can't control what the final product is vs when they played a pre-alpha build in February.

Same was said a few years ago when OS folks went down for CD. What they saw in April wasn't part of the final product in August.

Acceleration Burst Auto sprint is now out.* No longer is there an auto sprint, which I never liked and neither did the gameplay team when they talked about revamping the running game.* I’ve always felt like having auto sprint on took away another weapon that I could use to be extra shifty or to get to that gear that you didn’t see coming and letting the CPU decide.* Just never worked for me and this new “Acceleration Burst” is exactly what I was looking for in more ways than one.* The right trigger is the “Acceleration Burst” and what is great is it is tied with a new stamina system that they’ve put into Madden NFL 25; which we’ll get to later.* The “Acceleration Burst” now allows me to set up my blockers or to stutter and then accelerate around a corner on toss plays.* It really felt good to gain a burst like you see in the NFL and it really adds another dimension to running game. It’s not over powered and sometimes you don’t realize it it’s there until you use it, but when you do you can feel your guy accelerate through the whole.

The old "speed burst" and the "accelerator button" are actually different.

If you didn't press "speed burst" you would only run about 90% of your top speed. When you did press it you would run 100%.

The way I believe the new "accelerator button" works is if you never press the button will eventually get to 100% of your top speed. When you press the button you will get to 100% of your top speed faster.

Re: Run Free with Madden NFL 25 All New Precision Modifier

I'm happy to see foot planting has been introduce. It does worry me that they specifically mention 45, 90, 135 & 180 changes in direction. Does that mean there are no animations for anything in between?

Acceleration burst? I'm guessing the difference between this & speed burst is that it's short lived. Is speed burst in the game or does a full push on the stick = sprint?

Precision modifier sounds cool if the normal foot planting works. I was hoping for controls similar to 2K BB where you can pull off moves with just the sticks & modify from there. But if the foot planting works and allows for cuts & jab steps, there's actually 3 layers of moves instead of 2.

Sounds like they only did half the job with the blocking. Good that they worked on the assignments & recognition, but what about the animations? Engaged player mobility? How will all this new running look with all the blockers/defenders patty caking, stuck in mud?

And I hope they took the eyes off the back of blocker's heads so they're not changing directions with the RB they can't see.
