True, but that's just the running animation though, not the missing frames which seems to affect all animations.

Looking good

don't get me wrong I want it fixed big time. Its imperative if they want to really nail sim....physics is a must. 360 spins on a dime that result in players rocketing up the field after the ball can't be allowed to run rampart.


Ian says hes on top of it, and I think giving him until E3 is fair....if its still a problem by then, then its on

Actually there were two positives in there. Feel free to list more, that was just my quick take away. Outside of the gameplay, the biggest problem I have with the game is what appears to be dropped and/or missing frames. It's the one thing I have yet to see addressed. At 60FPS (which is more than the eye can see) why does it still appear that we are missing frames during game play. Something just seems off.

I like when Ian said that the refs will call a play dead if there's no forward momentum. That is just awesome. I've never seen anything like that in a game before.

There's definitely some improvements that are shown, but if I'm still stuck without any camera choices I'm unfortunately probably going to have to pass. BTW, thanks for the link to the videos...good find!

No you aren't the only one.. seriously..

I guess im just tired of seeing the some of the same ole things. I guess the best way to explain it is, while some things have improved and some new features have been added, it just still kinda feels and looks like Madden 09. I guess it's the same old game engine & animations thats killing it for me. Theres not enough life in the game... Idk..

LOL I think you should change the thread title...I was scared to click on the thread

Im a redskins fan. I know some people command double teams in a 4-3 defense. But it wouldn't be fun to play teams like the cowboys, Pats, and Ravens that run a 3-4. It wouldn't be fair.
