Same with seams. It's very nice to watch.

Same here bro! It's pretty exciting tbh. Online SIM CFMs could be pretty intense. Tampa 2 vs DQ Cover 3 would be a fun game.

After playing for 4 hours last night here are my thoughts

The graphics look the same to me

The physics are so improved and weight of players that it feels different

Commentary can be boring at times but improve commentary is awesome in terms of what is happening and mentioning big money spent by Giants on Vernon.

I hate the over saturated over contrasted colors in the 3D player intros. No need for that and I hope it is patched.

Half time show exactly the same

Gameplay where it all matters has been so finely tuned that this game feels organic.

This. The replays too have this look and I hate it.

Sorry if someone mentioned this but no score ticker for 32 team control. It just shows user vs user score zero. I played a 4:25 game and the 1:00 games don't show the score. I also tried putting all teams on auto pilot. No luck.

Try to super sim them on fast first and see what happens.

I guess Ill have to get used to it but in my opinion the game seems faster, the players right now feel more robotic.

It feels more like an arcade game...

But this is after playing it for two hours..

I'm guessing the score ticker for 32 team control works the same way as The Show. You have to sim all the games you don't want to play before you play your game, and the scores will show in real-time.

Is not robotic, it is actual physics which Madden has never had.

No more cutting on dimes like the player had 8 legs.

Also you can always lower game speed in settings. I play on VERY SLOW FOR THE last 5 maddens
