2012 equipment...after video

[bpac55]

RynoAid has the game and was kind enough to do a 6 minute video of equipment. It has since been added to this thread. I will make a small list of what I saw.

New:

ION 4d helmet with 5 facemasks
Schutt XP
Revo Speed with 3 bar rb facemask, rb robot, and the tebow
Revolution 3 bar linebacker
Adidas cleats

Still in game:

"Standard" helmet with enormous bulge
3 facemasks that don't exist
3 variants of the LT facemask
HORRIBLE 3 bar rb
Neck roll that looks like a hunch back

Not in game:

Revo speed 2 bar qb
Various neck roll options such as cowboy collar and the Douglas collar
More cleats

So after all this hype about new equipment in the game EA added 2 helmets, the Schutt air and the ION 4d, and about 7 facemasks. They also added 2 pairs of adidas cleats. They refused to even touch facemasks for normal style helmets as well as the DNA masks...they are missing 2 of the most popular worn DNA masks. I will say that I am happy with some of the additions but overall disappointed with the lack of "popular" facemasks that are worn today. Also they need to upgrade cleats yearly not just do it once and figure we will be happy with it.

good to know! I seriously don't get why they just don't delete the LT facemasks and the other ones that don't exist/nobody wears. this has been like that for years and it's beyond silly at this point. Madden is always on top of the latest equipment.

The biggest surprise to me is that the Revo speed 2 bar qb didn't make it into the game, but oh well, always next year.

Page 37 post 368 of RynoAid's thread Getting Retail Tomorrow. If someone knows how to copy the video link and post it in here that would be great.

Would be great to see the facemask like the one matt mcgloin wears/uses.
