Madden NFL 10: Fumble Meter Follow Up

[Fresh Prince]

Ian, you are my hero.

Great news here, sounds much better than what we saw on CD.


I believe all those changes are something most of us brought up, well done Ian.

Design is sound. Makes everyone happy.

Question regarding a live ball. When a ball is on the ground, and you dive for it. Can you miss it, and it bounce away from you? Or will the grab and/or pile up animations kick in every time?

It can be turned off.

Ian = Success.

Thanks djordan, I had read that, but it only covers when it's triggered. It doesn't indicate whether or not you can miss the ball and it bounce away from you. (How does this currently work in Madden?).

you could miss the pickup in madden 08 on old gen for sure. You'd got for the pickup, but the ball would just bounce away.

hopefully its the same, but now you can jump on it in an attempt to secure possession.

That will be kewl if it works that way, or if there are quick take aways, where it's not so much a pile up, but two or three guys scrapping over the ball. Or even a CB/WR catch where they both have the ball and they whistle the play dead (giving the ball to the WR, who I believe gets it when both catch the ball).
