I wished they would have given us a video to coincide with the blogs. I really hope I will be able to use real football knowledge to beat cheesers online. Madden really got this right. I played safety in college and the first thing we did was identify the strength of the offense as indicated by the blog. The auto flip feature is HUGE!!!!!! I would manually do this on ever play. Next I would have to know what kind of run fit player I was. Usually it was a force or cutback in Cover 3 or a pass first fill player in cover 2. I am blown away that got all of this in the game. I salute you madden.

Yes yes yes finally ! Football concepts no more running the same plays over and over and over ! And also seems play rec will be very very important . So veterans players will play a big role now vs young guys and rookies with low , Read and react !

Clint and I talk about this all the time. Tuning is underway to deliver exactly this.

This is just the beginning. Just wait until the zone blog drops!

I may regret it later but I pre-ordered it after reading Clint's blog and the gameinformer article.

Rex please spread ratings out please please gameplay is so much better . In years pass why get the Texans JJ Watt ? He don't feel elite ? The gap to small from Watt and the avg offence linemen ! I hope we go the FIFA route in player ratings!

Good stuff EA! Just by reading this blog, you can tell these devs really know their football & are passionate about it. Love these additions. This should really give us that chess match that sim football gamers have been waiting for.

Man, if this stuff is as advertised or close I hope the CFM team brings it this hard as well. We still have more gameplay blogs left and I hope once that CFM one drops I have this same feeling.
