Apparently you feel the need to judge what is worth to be mentioned and what not on this board.

Why not make every player look the same, 6-1 250lbs

this is a bad suggestion IAO


Why are so many people so sensitive on this board?

I purposely tried to "break it" but couldn't so that was a good sign. But since it was an Alpha it's unknown as to how tweaks after that may or may not have an effect.

I just hope that when the final cuts are made that we finally get shots in pre-play and auto replays that look like the photo Ian posted today.

I'm not trying to sound crass about this, but if they keep posting these great photos that make everyone go nuts with approval, wouldn't it only stand to reason that seeing this imagery in-game would enhance the experience?

Pre-play, post-play and replay. Bigger, and more field-level. That's what we need and didn't get in Madden 09.

They're sitting on an atom bomb with what they could do here. I hope that at some point they push the damn button.

That was a sarcastic statement.

Exactly, these are the kind of shots we need to see post play and for replays, not the jumbotron and the cardboard crowd shots.

I don't understand what all the panic about the Wildcat being overpowered is about. The formation was used maybe 10 times all season to pass the ball. Most of the time, because of the unbalanced line and the fact that Ronnie Brown despite being the Dan Marino of Pop Warner QBs couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with a beach ball, it is a power run formation. Ronnie Brown tried throwing no more than 3 times all season. Often the aim of package when trying to pass was to get the ball into an able passer like Chad Pennington's hands.

Since you know that this formation is going to be about the run, stack the box with 8 guys and control FS.

I'm quite simply blown away by the graphics again!!!!!

Really need to see some footage/play the game to completely lose my mind though...

I don't understand how Ian et al have been able to improve so many aspects of the game in 1 year when we had so little improvement in the last 4 years (might have regressed if you include how franchise sucked recently).

Thankyou so much devs.

Let's see some footage!!!!

The way the game is looking right now it looks better than in the build we played. I'll wait for them to put it in a blog, but for those who are concerned, the Wildcat will not be hard to contain. They will show you why in the blog. Now I will say I had a chance to play with it in practice mode and Ricky broke quite a few long ones. But they have put some things in place for you to be able to contain this formation. Again, once they show the blog, you should be able to see it for yourself as to why it will not be hard.
