That's how the whole video looked to me, they're taking all the steps but weight/momentum don't appear to be a factor at all. Might just be hard to tell since we haven't seen real gameplay footage though.

It's floaty but it's been this way since the 360 launch. Ps2 was the best "feeling" madden era. Players had weight when they ran and cut.

I think it has something to do with the animation integrity and the frames per second. They have to speed up the animations which distorts them

Start at :50. Defender looks like he's trying to make out with AP instead of tackle him.

This actually looks pretty good...not surprised people have their hackles up tho.
It is what it is... sounds like most people should just wait for next year or the year after as this years next gen just isnt good enough for the majority of posters it seems.
I'll enjoy it though..its certain to be better than current gen!

I played this game a couple of days ago during a group focus event trying out Madden 25 on the Xbox one. The graphics are better, but the game play is the same. The defensive A.I. feels much improved though, which is a good thing. I think the game will be much better in the future, but this one felt like a port.
