This puzzles me also. Why not just chill with all of the new gimmicks year after year, and get the gameplay, presentation, and franchise right.

Once you nail that then work on 1 gimmick at a time. Introduce one year the best you can, and then the following year iron out the wrinkles.

Number of Online Players : 2-32 players???

Modes? Are you referring to the ONE mode revealed? Online Team Play has been asked for by fans for about 2-3 years.

Yeah, I agree, but I'm not too concerned with the win, loose or draw or play to win feature.

That sounds like Rookie Mode with play art and coaches voice overs to me.

Gotta have something for the kiddies to play. At least it's not Mascot games.

The quick summary states 3v3 OTP.

But the features list says:

Then we see

Number of Online players: 2-32

If their aim was to confuse us, they succeeded.

Sounds fun if the view is normal and not like it was like last years co-op

Last bullet point caught my eye! Looks like new announcers.
 
# 11 ZoneKIller @ 04/22/10 09:06 PM
IDK....
 
# 12 johnnyg713 @ 04/22/10 10:24 PM
Want to point out to you guys that they did the same with NCAA and they have this....

Real Assignment AI — From new running lanes to double-team blocking, experience the most realistic authentic offensive performance like never before!

Looks like OL/DL was addressed this year. No doubt it looks like it will be the second big gameplay improvement to madden this year as well.
 
# 13 PantherBeast_OS @ 04/22/10 10:45 PM
Good to announcing is changing this year. Can't wait.

•See It. Hear It. Feel It. – Experience a new level of excitement with revamped audio presentation. From the booth to the field, Madden NFL 11 brings gameday to your living room like never before. Details Coming Soon! - That caught my eye the most since I the other thing that grabbed me, earlier, about Madden 11 was the new GameFlow system.

I want to be moved like when I play NBA Live 10. That game's arena sounds is outstanding.

Oooo! Nice! If all this new, great sounding additions/fixes comes together well, man, I don't know if I will ever put this game down...or NCAA 11, even though I'm not a huge college football watcher. I liked NCAA 10, though, mucho, til I got Madden 10. Speed of game difference was too much. NCAA 10 had to go but NCAA 11 supposed to have speed sliders.

Oh, and Madden 11 trailer in over an hour. Woot!...as they say in EU.
 
# 16 lint @ 04/22/10 11:23 PM
sigh.... they refuse to make line play realistic. I give oh well glad I got my rpgs to tide me over.

Sounds like what Ask Madden should have always been. Great for newer players.

I was forced to do this last year due to the horrendous AI play calling. At hope, at the very least, this means the AI will be able to call reasonable plays for a given situation.

Looks good. Lets hope their implementation is better than the Oline/DLine improvements of last year.

A long time coming. Definitely a good thing for newer players.

Not applicable unless the locomotion and passing game are improved. So far we have info on one, and not a darn thing on the later.

Sounds good, but I hope there is actual banter in the game. Even driven presentation will equal fail.

I've been waiting for route based passing & better passing mechanics for 2 years now, and I don't see anything about it. If this is the final list, I'm going to be very disappointed, especially after putting together videos to highlight the problem and Ian sounding off on the problems with route based passing (no word on the speed / ball arc). I won't subject myself to Madden's straight line passing again, when I can pop in APF2K8 and enjoy a real passing game.

Realtime handwarmers affect in game players ratings, use them or risk a dip in key players stats. Quarterback lose accuracy, punters mishandle snaps, etc...
Hmm, I don't know about this one...
 
# 19 shanew21 @ 04/22/10 11:31 PM
Hopefully this means that the Computer will call plays based on the real team's tendencies. No more 4th and goal 14 down 4th quarter field goals.
 
# 20 DJDReW3102 @ 04/22/10 11:33 PM
i think the 32 users thing is for the online franchise mode...call me crazy.... but what else could that be? 16 on 16 online play? lol that'd be cool but no one wants to be a lineman.
