That's not the impression I get from their vlogs they seem to basically brainstorm until March, doesn't seem logical but maybe I'm wrong...but with EA, what is logical?

You can see a pseudo toe-tap in dev diary 2. The very last play. You see the receiver get his right foot down before goin out of the back of the endzone. You can see how rushed his right foot is compared to the rest of the animation.

Wow. This vid has just surprised the s**t out of me. This game looks like it plays more realistically than ANY FOOTBALL GAME I've ever seen. If they pull this off, maybe other companies(VC) can have the courage to make another game. I see nothing but positives about this game now.

we've had the vision, now lets have some fun !

I saw someone post something about awareness on the field because of the RB stretching the ball out... I hate to burst your bubble, cause I really want it to be like that, but you can he dove for the endzone, and the dive animation causes him to reach the ball out.

Its still cool that he kept the ball outstretched.
