Madden NFL 17 Gameplay - Short Video Clips (GameInformer)

[HolyCrap]

The good:

Ball physics are solid. Blocking looks improved.
Defensive zones look much improved as well.

The Bad:

Changing direction is too easy no loss of speed.
Collisions look terrible.

Been at that point brotha. The running animations kill me especially.

I guess I'm one of the only ones who doesn't get hung up on player movement. Not saying its good, but I guess I'm just used to it and it doesn't bother me like it does others.

I really liked 16. Not a great game, but very solid. So I am sure I will like 17 and I'm excited for it.

The clip that showed the slot WR come in to try and block on a run play looked good to me, it wasn't sticky at all.

I ran 90% zone in Madden 16 and was always top ten defense in all my online leagues. You just have to mix it up. Call zones that confuse. Mix in zone blitzes. Do some occasional man-zone. Etc.

Madden just ain't the same anymore.

You're not one of the only ones, it's just that the ones that care about it, really, really care about it, they're basically the video game equivalent of a single issue voter. The whole game is critiqued through the angry lens of hating the movement. It is what it is.
