Some Madden NFL 16 Features Revealed, Pre-Order & Deluxe Edition Details

[KG]

Whatever happened to true-step and making it apply to all 22? Not trolling, just curious in general.

But if you start 0-3 confidence is sometimes so jacked up that even getting to 5-3 on a 5 game win streak isn't enough todig out of the hole. I hate seeing guys that won a game lose 5 points of confidence because that game winning pass deflection "shoulda been a pick" or a WR that had 5 receptions for 70 yards and a TD should have contributed more in a game won by 7 points. Their plays literally won the game but yet they lose points over some of the dumbest things. And 12 hours of gameprep to get just 3-4 confidence points or at the most like 8-10 with development boosts and such is just ridiculous. I'll wait before I make a decision of how I feel about this year's game until after E3 and after a deep dive into franchise mode comes out, but as of now it doesn't look all that great for CFM lovers.

It's par for the course though, great idea terrible implementation

Yea, and they never listen to what needs fixed. I see guys saying "I love EA because they listen to their customers and make the game changes that people wanna see". HA HA HA. That makes me laugh. The most asked for things have taken years of complaining and asking before EA FINALLY added it to the game and act like they "listen to the players".

I'm not exactly sure but they could have scrapped it. I know they said they wouldn't be able to deliever on living worlds they originally planned to

I HATE the ride. This is the pattern every Madden release takes here:

- Speculation based on some random info about the game.
- Arguments about the cover.
- Speculation and complaints about the back of the box info.
- Optimism and speculation after the first full video or dev video.
- Complaints when E3 videos dont appear after the first night and claims that EA is hiding things.
- Optimism after the E3 videos drop the next night.
- Complaints after people start nitpicking the E3 videos.
- Optimism or speculation depending on the subject matter of the next dev videos.
- A group of people claim they wont buy the game because of the videos and information.
- Another group of people play the EA Access version and rave that the game is the best version of Madden in years. They are usually wrong.
- Half of the people who said they wouldnt buy the game, buy it and then complain about it.
- The other half dont buy it and use the rest of the year to hype other games and complain about the exclusive deal.

Rinse and repeat.

This! Haven't heard anything about True Step since Madden 25. Was that another one & done feature? I know it was still in Madden 15 but only for user controlled players & they supposedly tuned it. Didn't they say they were adding it to all 22 players?

Sorry but the "new" passing stuff was almost word for word what they said was in m13, that wasnt.

the new WR /CB INTERACTIONS, sounds like more forced animations, great!!!! LOVE THOSE

CFM- same thing, just a tweak here and there....


wow so basically new thing is wr/cb interactions, but yet still not a word about player assignments.cant match up my best cb with other teams best wr? ? still ? come on man

Confidence should replenish to 50 at the start of every season as it does in real life. No one goes into a season saying WE ARE GONNA SUCK! YEA! Everything else about the game I thought was decent(compared to past maddens) in madden 15. I will need to see more at E3 to really launch my feeling about the game in a certain direction. Hopefully E3 will also put to bed all the speculation and rumors about Joe Montana Football 16 and show us what exactly it is gonna be all about.

totally agree, and if that isnt fixed in 16, my league will be shutting down, ill just go buy Joe Montana ( oh wait thats "not a real game yet") .If EA was to sorry to fix one of the biggest issues that plagued 32 man online CFMs last year, im not giving them my money. F em
