I feel so sad............I dont have live!!! Why?!?!?!? Why is Lord punishing me?? I can never have an online franchise!!!!

# 202 BrianFifaFan @ 06/01/09 11:36 PM

Okay, my balloon is now about to pop with excitement. I'm not even an online type, but O.F. looks smokin hot. But the presentation in that vid is something that just sealed the deal for me. Coaches, tailgaters and fans walking around. Man... And, yes, I know that other games have had it before, but never Madden! Not to this level. Game, set and match, I'm sold. Just get the gameplay tweaked right and maybe make the movements the best you can tweak them, and this game will be headed for SGOTY-consideration.....

I agree..but honestly -- with gameplay, its nothing tooo major IMO...

I think the Rocket Catching needs to be tweaked in the worst way....but who knows what will happen with that...because in one of the pics with TO getting clipped in the picture by the cowboy DB...it definetely seems as if Rocket Catching is still in...

and if thats the case.....

I no the online community will feel my pain...

# 204 Hotlanta @ 06/01/09 11:39 PM

I agree with this. I really need to see the locomotion that was in the blogs soon. Turn still seem to be happening to fast.

Did I miss the confirmation of Flak Jackets?

# 205 PantherBeast_OS @ 06/01/09 11:40 PM

I thought Ian said that the rocket-catch already went the way of the dinosaurs.

My thoughts exactly

# 208 lightning_78 @ 06/01/09 11:46 PM

So does anyone know how free agency will work with the bidding. Will everyone place a bid for a player during their own time and it goes to the highest bidder or does everyone have to be online and make it in the format of a live auction?

I'm just worried about not personal schedules not allowing players to get online to bid for that franchise-changing FA.

I have seen all the blogs and there were issues such as chopping,clipping,and the wr/db interaction IN AN ACTUAL GAME has not been seen. So I'm really stoked for gameplay vids from E3 to see where the game is fully on game play AS A WHOLE.

# 210 MattIntellect @ 06/01/09 11:52 PM

Phil, Ian, and the rest of the Madden team seem to have really focused on game play this year. I can't guarantee that because I didn't play Madden 10 yet, but judging by the Pro-Tak blogs, the improvements to OL/DL interaction, and the promise that a head coach should be able to pick up Madden and beat a tourney or long time Madden player, leads me to think that game play was the top priority this year. The Madden team said that they wanted to shut up people complaining about 2k5's game play being more realistic than Madden's, and I believe them. All of this will be answered when I play the game.

Not exactly...I haven't seen anything official like that...

The closest thing we have gotten is "better WR/DB Interaction"...

....But that doesn't really say too much...and I know Ian nips things in the bud pretty fast about certain "Exploits"/Design flaws/Bad Physics like with the FB Dive Blog he did waaaayyyy back, or like the WR running out of bounds on routes toward the sidelines, but nothing solidly about Rocket Catching....

I mean, its not like a deal breaker for me...but man I wish he and the team addressed it--or at least come out and say something about it, even if they couldn't get it figured out over before the final product in madden 10...

I just dont want to pop in my m10 on Aug 14th and have someone abusing me with that catch already and be caught off guard...

I'm afraid you have a shorter memory than I do my friend. I have seen them tell me about things like sideline catches that never worked like they promised and for years about adaptive ai that's never been felt.

The haters like to say "EA, if it's in the game, it in the game-just not all the time." for a reason.

I want the gameplay to be great but have not really seen it all work properly in any vids to date.

# 213 Naterob3 @ 06/02/09 12:08 AM

Does anybody know if you can player lock in madden and if so can it be used in the online franchise......????

# 214 Tweeg @ 06/02/09 12:11 AM

This has no mention of offseasons or free agents. I am scared this is just a 'season' mode.

# 215 king525 @ 06/02/09 12:12 AM

Better quality at GT

They are calling it franchise... if it was just a "season mode" then they would call it that. Can we get that stickied or something?

Of course they are not going to spill the beans on everything right then and there, more info is going to come. This was just a short presentation to get people excited.

That being said, the more exciting details I'm sure involve more than just "offseasons and free agents," since those are things that are assumed to be part of a franchise mode.

# 219 The_Balm @ 06/02/09 12:31 AM

YES!!!!

# 220 farnzworth @ 06/02/09 12:33 AM

quick question, is online co-op part of online franchise?
