Madden NFL 16 Videos - New Pass Controls, Player Creation/Edit Options

[SageInfinite]

Was waiting on a video like this explaining the new passing mechanics. Smart thing EA is doing letting community guys do videos like this. Saves them the money, time, and effort, and gets these guys involved building their fan base. Good ****.

Looks very fluid to watch and helpful indeed with the video.

Did notice that the DB(#23 on the falcons) at the end of the video speeds up/warps quickly to recover after Jackson beats him...wish stuff like that was out of the game as it isn't realistic.

Other than that, looks really good

I noticed in create-a-player there is qb and what appears to be new 'linebacker' style, although the guy who did the video didn't scroll in each to show us what that means/is. I hope QB styles are still in the game.

I don't necessarily like the concept of more button pressing when passing, as opposed to just the left stick control. Can't wait to get my hands on it though for a real review.

I like the catching animations a lot but I'm concerned that the only way to catch a long pass in traffic is with the aggressive catch.

What about just catching the ball because you have a better position and are adjusting to the ball and the CB is clueless. Not every long pass is a jump ball catch.

Can someone confirm that the aggressive catch is not OP?

Thanks,

Editing- so we can now edit other teams players in CCM? Or are we stuck with a generated rookies that look terrible and wrong accessories?

the passing animations look great, the qb animations are awesome and the way the receivers catch it look great...however....this video scares me...

he is throwing into triple coverage or double coverage multiple times and the wr comes away with it....i do not like that...i know they said they gave dbs some love...but i guess it doesnt look like it there...maybe its on super low difficulty...i just dont think you should be able to complete every pass in coverage if you throw the right pass and aggressive catch every time...

if...and its a big if....but if i get this game...it will only be if it is revealed you can turn off the aggressive, rak and possession catch button mini game...

and if you can turn off in-game dynamic goals for xp that i dont care about. it will ruin the experience for me..

but i will say the passing looks very nice

I read "Player creation" as "Play creation" when I first clicked on this thread. I was like, were they actually hiding that from us?

Man, that aggressive catch seems like it'll be op in situations.
