Tom Brady is the Madden NFL 18 Cover Athlete, First Trailer Reveals Story Mode

[jet546]

I just confirmed with Dustin, it is a screenshot from M18. The helmet/chinstrap threw me off because in the trailer he had his signature (well not signature) chinstrap on, the one he actually wears in real life. In the screen shot it had the regular generic chin strap. Look back at the trailer if you don't know what I mean. But from what I was told he didn't get his new helmet/chinstrap on at the time of that screenshot so it's a old render I assume.

**The chinstrap is only exclusive to TB which kinda sucks cuz many players wear that too, like P. Rivers, J. Winston, T.Siemien and many more but oh well

I don't fall for the "in game footage" or "game engine footage" anymore. With the power of the new consoles Ive just been hoping for a plethora of new animations with varying outcomes, obviously this is just a sizzle trailer but the animations are the same as the last 4 years

Clearly not mo cap, that's a promo shoot. Mo cap has the guys in the outfit with the little "balls" on them to capture their movement

Tom Brady's helmet actually sits low on his face how he actually wears it. Thats awesome.

Equipment guys.. I just don't get it.

How many busted game issues need work? For a decade now. But you worry about whether an elbow pad is the right length or color?

They're not mutually exclusive. They have separate teams for both. Getting elbow pads right doesn't stop them from working on all the other stuff or "busted game issues." This comes up every year and when all we get is short clips with quick cuts there isn't much else to judge.

I'm an equipment/jersey/graphics guy. I don't touch franchise or season mode. Never have. I really don't have time besides playing quick online or offline. I don't really notice a lot of gameplay issues until I read about them on here. Gameplay changes take so much coding and trial and error...Uniform/equipment can be an easier fix that may not take he resources and time. It's based on personal preference. Never understood why it bothered people.

Most likely. Didn't say in game footage.
