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

[chen_sc]

I have seen only two positive things in this teaser video.
a) the teams specific entrance.
b) the pregame scene with the camera above the stadium looks like nfl on NBC broadcast, it looks great.
hope to see later improved presentation (maybe espn,cbs,fox,nbc), ingame ticker with scores like sony did with 'mlb 11 the show', enhanced graphics and real time physics.
but remember: big expectations=big disappointments...

Dont really understand the hate from some people wanting more.

I actually think this teaser is pretty well done....I mean, of course I'd rather have a full fledged feature list instead of pausing and straining my eyes, and coming in here and speculating -- but like I said before, I'm happy and cant wait for the team to dive deep into these new additions.

5 Months until the release of the new madden, and so far I'm getting those excited feelings back already.

Personality + is FIFA's take on player tendencies. Rather than using sliders to determine tendencies (a la 2K), P+ uses general player types and thresholds, as well as body types and animations, to determine tendencies...

I disagree bro, I actually see it helping to counter all the BS.

I've been one of the big complainers when it comes to Nano's and all the unstoppable nonsense that goes on during a madden game, and for instance with the Nano's through the 'A' gap -- there are ways to sorta counter it with quick passes and running plays...but using a certain team playbook, there is only so many plays that allow you to counter the Nano with.

I believe with the ability to prepare for the unstoppable play, you can come up with your best counter by picking trusted plays, from your personal style to slow down the Nano pressure from all 40 playbooks madden offers.


At the end of the day, Custom playbook or not, Nanos will still be there...I'd rather have the best way to prepare for it through schemes from different playbooks, IMO

wow that was barely anything. But i guess I shouldn't have expected anything catastrophic. I barely got a glimpse of the playbooks too. I dont see how anything is confirmed yet though.
