[SageInfinite]

I'm sorry I just can't get past that Raider stumble. The fact that they would showcase that.....SMDH.

this stuff does happen in the game. obviously you dont watch much nfl. they're not saying you're going to have an explosive hit on EVERY play. they're just showing what the explosive hits look like, and YES, explosive hits are in the NFL.

dude... they're showcasing what the hard hits look like. this is not a full game. nothing needs to be toned down.

^^^THIS THIS THIS^^^

madden is extremely lacking in fundementally sound football movements and fundementally sound techniques. whether it be running motions, cutting, tackling, throwing, etc... all these things are what makes the game on sundays ..NOT being lauched into the air and back 3 yards... ive never seen that happen in my whole life and ive watched A LOT of football through my 33 year life. Even the hit that J. Clowney made on the rb from michigan (Vincent Smith) this didnt happen and you wont ever see a more violent collision. Smith hit the ground with "Force Impact" and his head might have bounced a little..lol But in NO way was he launched like a patriot missle up off his feet and thrown 5 yards backwards. its ridiculous that they are even working or capturing annimations like this. Its slowly going back to an annimation engine because THAT type of thing is NOT physics, im sorry

at least its not "human" physics anyway. that type of annimation reminds me of a Terminator movie or something where Arnold throws a guy across the room with one hand. lol COME ON' MAN!!

i rest my case. here is 13 minutes of hard hits from the 2012-13 season, which is exactly what i see on this madden video (a compilation of their hard hits). does NOT mean every tackle is going to be a hard hit. u guys complain about everything.

That's what I'm hoping for. Last year when they showed off the IE, it showed off a bunch of stuff that was extremely rare and that hardly ever happened. However, big hits are something easily recreated and I'm willing to bet that the higher difficulty that you play on, the more frequent these hit's will be from the CPU defense.

The hit-stick just needs to go all together. Make the hit power rating matter, and base the power of any given hit on the players attributes and the momentum of him and the opposing player. I would rather see no big hits at all than too many.

Bro its not even being implemented right. in that clip the guy caught the ball and turns around takes a half a step and has contact with the defender. the defender then proceeds to fly into the air backwards like he has just been hit by a steaming locomotive. the reciever or te was not in a full sprint or anything he had just turned around. what about that play looks "physically" correct to you?
