Madden NFL 11: Dual Stick Controls Q&A (Gamespot)

[Rashad19]

I like what I saw there! Looks like I'm going to have to get my stick skills up this year as I'm not a huge FIFA or NHL guy!

i wonder how backbreaker controls influenced ea dual stick controls? Not bashing just asking. Also I think EA has taken this dual stick control one step pass backbreaker from what i've seen which is not much on ether end. Can't wait to see how it works in madden this year. Last year the truck stick was too powerful. This should change that. Now let work on the hit stick.

Oh ok, not bad then .. I used the stick anyways, gimme a good practice session and a couple online games and i'm a have it mastered.

They should add this "lean" feature into the hit stick as well. The concept would work perfectly...

Instead of just hitting "up" or "down" on the hit stick and have it go into that canned tackle animation. They could make it so the longer you hold the hit stick the more lean the defensive player will have and the harder the hit will be (This would make it so you could only use the hit stick if the player is line up and has the perfect angle). If you hold the hit stick to long the lean will make you fall over or easily get run right by....

2nd tech demo was impressive to me as I can see how it could change game play

Lol, power to you ..

Hopefully run blocking isn't an issue, and it actually feels natural ..

I'm Curious tho are both the body lean and the right stick jukes on the same stick? And if so how will the game interpret what the user is trying to accomplish.
