MO- Cap and Movement..
After watching the new locomotion video I got to thinking. (I will withhold my final judgement until the game is released) There are way to few running styles in the game. Right now players who are under 200 pounds have one animation for running, players over 200 have another running animation, and the lineman have the other. They might have some more but I can't tell. In my opinion I think they should (on the edit player screen) have signature styles similar to the way NBA 2K10 has it. This way you could have different jukes, spins, gaits(how they look when they run), cuts, passing animations (how the drop back, fake the hand off, pull the ball down to run, pump fake, throwing motion, etc), and etc.
I won't talk about the jukes and spins (I think there should be a bunch of different captures of this) but I will talk about how they run, and passing animations.
So the running styles that you could choose from would be.
RB
Small & fast scatback --- Like Demps and Rainey
Big Runningback --- Toby Gerhart, Dwyer
Fullback (big runningback would be smoother and more natural)
Average (in between scatback and big back) -- Hardesty
WR
Tall & Quick --- Randy Moss, Calvin Johnson
Tall & Build up Speed --- Sidney Rice
Tall & Big --- Demaryius Thomas
Average Sized reciever
TE
Big Athletic -- Antonio Gates, Jared Cook
Rumbler -- Alge Crumpler
OL/DL
Big and can't move
Can move well
CB
Super Athletic
You can give any player any running style, so LBs and DBs would just be the same as RBs, and WRs. But all of these should look different when they run.
With the quarterbacks (everyplayer has QB animations)
Throwing Motion (self explanitory)
Movement (Drop back, handoff, roll out, pull ball down to run, evade the rush, etc)
Big Tall Pocket passer -- Ryan Mallet
Athletic but not RB/WR athletic -- stephen Garcia
Scramble --- Mike Vick, Pat White
Never played QB before -- most of the other positions would get this.
I'm new here so be easy on me, and thanks for reading.
Also.. after watching the video, get some athletes to do the motion capture. Get one player to do the capture for each running style ex.. bring demps in (after he graduates) to do the scatback animations, and get gerhart in to do the big back.
