Madden NFL 12 Video - First Look Reveals Custom Playbooks, What Else Can You Find?

[The GIGGAS]

I'll say this. There was more substance to this teaser than I was expecting. From what it showed in the small excerpts, it looked decent. I'll be keeping my eye on Madden this year, instead of writing it off.

I am not sure about Player Tendencies(because of Player likeness). But NCAA 12 has a high % of having Custom Playbooks

do you think they took gameplanning and gameflow out all together or did they fix it. I thought it need just a tweeking for offense and a major readjustment for defense

They said there are actually more than 25 somewhere on this forum. They just chose to show off only 25 for whatever reason.

If nothing else, reactions to videos like this prove how the internet and the 24/7 information culture has really made it hard for anything to impress us.

Player tendencies (awesome) and custom playbooks (probably too complicated for me to be honest) are two things people have asked for for a long time, and you can pretty much guarantee within hours people will be fed up with these concepts and wondering what's next, to the point where by August it'll feel like something that has been in forever.

I'm personally geeked by the hot / cold streaks, simply because it might allow all those who complain about potential progression to get their COD-style fix for a better player without EA having to dismantle how players improve, but YMMV
(I'd be annoyed as hell if this video is the full extent of the improvements though).

I understand that but they just don't get it right when they ship, once its shipped we can do what we want with it. that's why rosters are always so jacked cause they give us the base and knowing we will adjust and fix so why not put it in their

I dont think so. I saw Gameplan tab on the top of the Custom Playbooks pic
