Re: Madden NFL 17 Equipment Upgrades - Helmets, Facemasks, Gloves, Cleats & More

I gotta say, I thought all you equipment guys were nuts, and often found myself thinking "how can they possibly care when ____ needs fixed!".....but man, was I wrong. It took me seeing it to join the hype, but boy...these look darn nice.

Consider me converted!

Here's an idea... Why not just scan the faces with their mouthpieces in for players that wear them in real life . Bring a variety of mouthpieces and have them wear what they will be sporting for the upcoming season . Scan Thier head with the mouth piece in.🤔

Because the mouthpieces need physics on them. They need to be able to move independently of the face/head. Just scanning the model doesn't achieve that.

image.jpeg while I appreciate the new cleats, I can't help but once again see that the color way's are off. Miami does not wear this color combination. The either wear orange or green, not both. The patriots are wrong . Most teams that wear white cleats beside the Cowboys and raiders will have inaccurate colorways. It's this attention to detail that EA needs to address to make every team as accurate as possible.

I'm sure there's some technical issue behind it like there is with mouth pieces and real single arm sleeves but it's better than nothing at this point

This is a fantastic interview linked on the first post with the Equipment Guru and T4verts.

There might be some insight as to how and why equipment is or isn't in the game.

I would suggest listening to it.

We didn't have anyone really wearing the Wilson and it was basically the same as the Riddell TK
