Madden NFL 15 Gameplay Videos - Day 1

[Skyboxer]

I seriously don't get the big deal about the camera/fans clothing.
I have NEVER paid attention to that at all. On the field and players on sidelines yeah ok..
Camera men and fans.. I never even really see them during the game as things go by so fast.

Yeah it would be cool to have them clothed correctly but it's simply something I personally could care less about it asin the scope of everything we see during the game they are few and far between on camera.
Again I'm not saying to not fix it.. simply saying to have so many posts about it like it's something huge in the gameplay department is something I don't get.
To each their own I guess.

EA is controlling what you see and what they show you in Madden 15 and the game looks improved but not that good. Madden 15 feels like they might of turned the corner in the vision but this is year one of three before the game is complete.

The stuff shown is not that great. Just wait to you see all the stuff not shown by EA. Like when there are next to no penalty's for a 10th straight year. When Sliders do nothing. When Subs don't work or stamina is broken. When Slow game play brings out the same stuck in the mud bug and you can't slow down the game speed.

Lets not forget what Madden is known for. You will enjoy the game for a week or two until something major is broke and you are waiting months for that promised patch to fix the game so you can play.

You will not enjoy this game from day one. You will be waiting for good sliders to try to fix the game. Roster editors to fix the poorly done rosters and the second patch to fix something major broken. We all know the first patch will already be on its way before release. That second patch feels like forever.

This game is what it is. Don't get caught up in the hype. Know what you are buying. Take the game for what it is.

I don't very much care either, but I can see people who are hardcore about having identical jerseys on the field for teams also like to see some authenticity for off the field as well. Besides, it's not that difficult I imagine. Although I don't expect it to be fixed till Madden makes a big focus for winter games/rain games.

Well I have zero programming knowledge so I have no idea how hard it would be bu you'd think it would be easy... Who knows.

For me in the 5-6 seconds out of a game that I notice it I'll just pretend these girls have a lot of family that goes to the games

Run animations somehow look even worse than madden 25 to me. They just look too stiff, and unemotional.

Well it's mainly because you are use to the same thing Brother. We all got use to the mediocrity. They don't change it because we accept it every year. There is nothing wrong with holding them accountable. And trust me there are alot of people who feel the same as me when it comes to the authenticity of these games. If you are gonna call your games simulations then give us simulation. Ya know?

Don't get me wrong I love what I am seeing this year from Madden 15, hell I can't wait to play. But it just erks me that they skip on the little things that bring the whole experience home. But this kind of thing happens when you have no competition.

That's why I believe NBA Live will eventually catch up to NBA 2K very soon because EA realizes that they are gonna have to give the gamers what they want if they want that series to survive. Madden Devs can afford to do half-*** work because there is no pressure from the outside. They know they have the gamers by the balls. Where the Devs of NBA Live have immense pressure to make their game comparable to NBA 2K sooner than later.

I simply never see that during the game so it doesn't bother me.
It's no big deal. I understand it needs fixed, it's simply something I never paid attention too.
It's all along he "little things" that I hope one day Madden gets to the point where the "little things" can be focused on. Hell I still want trash etc.. blowing across the field on windy days lol

And maybe I'm nuts but I could have swore JP or someone posted a tweet or something where EA said the winter clothing issue was fixed..??

Anyways I also LOVE the direction Madden is going and have more faith in these guys than I've ever had before.
Time will tell but if they continue to make strides I'll support them.

I hear you, and you're right as far as it's a "little thing", not a major one but I am a "Sim-Head" so for me it is irritating, ya know??? But I understand it's not a issue for everyone.

I never thought about the trash blowing across the field, that would be neat... lol

I agree the direction that Madden is heading now is great, I have very little complaints when it comes to this installment. I liked Madden 25 as well. So as long as it is an improvement over last years then I will be more than happy!!!
