Is there a way to trigger a player to do a regular ol' spike a football I guess is what I'm asking. Nothing else tied to it.

It's probably an early build of the game (as the dev stated earlier in this thread) so there's still a chance whatever is wrong ets fixed.

If this is what happens when they give us a video this short of a guy dancing, I don't even know if I want to see what happens June 4th.

Guys let's be honest here. We only need 11 seconds of a video to determine if we like the animation or not. This is why it was posted up, for us to judge. EA felt fine with 11 seconds being long enough , so what is the problem?

I personally don't need 11 minutes or hours of one Victor Cruz animation salsa dance to properly judge it. 11 seconds is more than enough. In the video it was not accurate.

I'm sure EA is fine with the criticism, and if they did not get the truth then they will never be able to reach star status, and only have to hear how the others do it so much better.

Now that I'm sure they are tired of hearing.

Just an idea, call me crazy, but what if they put the video out there for people to judge so they could tweak it for the final version?

Preposterous!

All kidding aside though, I wouldn't be surprised if that's exactly why it was done. With as quickly as the scoreboard changed after garnering feedback, nothing would shock me at this point. With these short videos like this, I don't really get the feeling that they're released for hype. Obviously, they are on some level otherwise why release it? But it seems more like a 'here's what we've got, this is it in the game, what do you think?' type thing.

Obviously, I could be wrong and we could get Mr. Roboto de Salsa come August.

Can't their QA testers do the same?

Are you serious? lol. We could we possibly tell the devs in the 11 second clip they already don't know? I mean really... What we told them they can find out by looking up at youtube clip of the real V.Cruz Salsa dance.
