I get that, but how about coming up with 4 or 5 different running styles.

Heck, we have our own, running and trucking Eddie Lee Lacy.

Put the RB's running styles in 4 or 5 different categories and each RB fits into one of those categories.

I don't think that is asking too much, do you?

[yardz23]

can two players play draft champion mode against each other locally?

This seems like a more fun couch head 2 head game than regular exhibition games.

from the gameplay vids I've seen there seems to be different running styles in the game. subtle, but different.

I just said it didn't have to be every player's stride and step. It's definitely not impossible or too intricate. It's about Madden finally going to another level and stepping up to this generation.

No absolutely not. Like the players style should come equipped with a running style like exhaustive, one cut, power, balanced, and receiving. I agree, I just meant in terms of each individual player

This has gotten off-topic. Lets get back to Draft Champions.

With all due respect, I think the discussion of signature animations & making these players feel different does have to do with Draft Champions. I think a lot of us who don't play MUT & don't really care for Draft Champions has to do with Legend / Star players feeling & animating too similar to average players in my opinion. If EA were to step it up in this area I think a lot of us would give these modes a chance. I personally would love to dive into MUT or Draft Champions if Barry Sanders ran & felt like Barry Sanders (meaning doing animations, cuts, moves that only he was known for) etc... It just takes the intrigue away for me when my 3rd string HB can pull off the same moves as the best HB of all time.

So in my opinion this discussion has everything to do with Draft Champions

The discussion has turned into "Madden has terrible animations." which has been discussed a bazillion times in this forum. No need to have another thread about bad animations.

Saying the legend players should look more authentic is okay. But the animation talk has been beaten to death.
