Madden NFL 10 Screenshot (Peter Moore Blog)

[polamalu82]

Here's a few things I'd like to see the refs do.

1. Run down the field with the players.
2. Throw flags
3. Blow whistles(or at least have a whistle sound when a penalty occurs)
4. Have meetings on the field discussing the plays.

Anyone else have any ideas?

All this screen shot proves is that the graphics may be improved a little bit, refs and chain gangs are present, and the QB has a towel on his waist. While all these things may be new and cool, one can not automatically assume the game is going to be great. So I'll give props where props are due and say Ian and team have managed to provide proof of some basic upgrades to the game, but I'll get truly excited when actual gameplay footage and verification of options are provided not screenshots specifially design to tittilate...as you should

How about QB standing in a pocket with OL/DL inter action? Did you see those over the past 4 years?

Did you see the different jerseys for different players ? Did you notice the sideline art?

I ask because you didn't mention those items.

Sure, it's only March, but hopefully, it's a preview of things to come.

the blue box hold all of the telephones so that the players can talk to the coordinators in the upstairs.

it looks like that is Dick LeBeau pacing on the sideline.

other than that i see the same thing everyone else does hand towels, refs, chain gang, superbowl patch, and better OL/DL interaction.

Yeah, I saw that but honestly I don't see what type of proof of "animation" can be pulled from a screenshot. I think what ademd was trying to say was that we have seen OL and DL engage each other before on a Madden Game. Ian obviously having more knowledge of this topic would be able to say for certain whether or not we have seen the exact same type of animations, I get the point ademd was trying to make. He just didn't clarify himself, which left room for Ian to pounce.

1. They appear to be doing this in the screen shot
2. They did this in the past gen so I don't see why not here
3. They only would blow a whistle to call the play dead but yea you're right I would like to hear a whistle when a false start or encrochment occurs.
4. This would be nice in a cutscene.

If it's in the game, it's in the game.

looking good with the still shoot, but we still have a ways to go and we still haven't seen the game motion. Im still concerned about the camera angles and presentation aspects of the game. If we have towels and other stuff and the game is boring as hell, what will the community say then? Good job so far Ian, I hope your team is making progress on the other things.

whistles after every play is over

running in on fumbles and getting players off the pile

signal TD's, incomplete passes, sideline catches.
