The new interface is way more visually appealing than anything we've had in the past. You guys need to look at this with an open mind, and appreciate the effort that's been put into this. Besides, that video was only 2 minutes long, I'm sure there's more to it than we know right now.

I will tell you that myself personally, cares almost NONE about visual things.

The key elements of a franchise mode are things like player progression, Draft logic, trade logic, contract signings, coaching philosophies, cap management. These are the things that make great franchise modes. I don't think it's a crime that I want to here about THESE things.

Sure, they added a nice shiny pre-game show. For myself personally, this does not sway me at all in wanting this game, because of the key elements of franchise are still bad, then the "Extra Point" means nothing.

I'm hoping we can see a LOT more about the fundamentals in the near future.

Ive already said that the new interface is great. Most of the time, I'm impressed with features and improvements Ian and co. come up with. I simply needed to express my opinion on the Extra Point show. And I think that if someone is not happy with the way the game looks, this person has the right to give his opinion.

Im actually happy DHB is so angry, I am taking pleasure that he is so upset.

For the rest of us, We got a Good Madden this year, Enjoy..

# 306 thmst30 @ 06/02/09 09:40 PM

I see into the future. This thread gets locked, and DHB_8 takes a "break" from the Madden forums.

# 307 MrNFL_FanIQ @ 06/02/09 09:41 PM

Despite what Stephen A. Smith and Dick Vitale suggest, yelling does not make you more important or more correct.

Now Ian did just tweet that they do have the framwork in place for it, maybe he's not ruling it out. But I would rather it be a fully fleshed DLC with something like fuller commentary for it and some really next-gen type of highlight-producing tech. As much as I loved 2k5, a lot of the highlights looked kinda canned. And the dialog for the voice-overs was minimal at best. "Jackson breaks it and he could go all the way..." Not a lot of variety to it, IMO...

# 309 rckabillyRaider @ 06/02/09 09:42 PM

this is a bit of a let down. Hopefully all the other improvements in presentation are enough to keep the franchises from getting stale right away. I hope at least they were able to add a bunch of new cutscenes during gameplay.

# 310 ChubbyBanana @ 06/02/09 09:42 PM

And this topic is done.

Please use one of the numerous other threads to discuss franchise.

Yeah I caught that too. That's awesome and has been needed in video games for years.

Only thing though is that if you get stuck playing like 5-6 straight rain games, there is no more "reseting the game" to fix the problem.

I may finally play Franchise mode for the first time in 4 years.

Man, the video mash feature for SportsWorld does make it kinda ridiculous to do your own thing.

Well you actually fall into that 1% that does not care about gameplay or Presentation. Your Probably going to want to keep on playing Head Coach, Josh Looman already said the Franchise in Madden 10 will not be as good as Head Coach. So Madden will probably not please you because they are not making the game for people like you, that is why you got Head Coach.

LOL.

I thought I was on a sports site watching that extra point show just now, looks so real.

I saw Shaun Phillips name at the top and almost said to my self the Chargers fans are going to be pissed if he got into some off the field issues.(Thats how real it felt to me just now)

# 316 thmst30 @ 06/02/09 09:45 PM

Ok Ian confirms half-time and post-game shows to me on Twitter.

GO IAN!

	@thmst30 both have a recap of stats, video highlights with banners, and some commentary along with different cut scenes. @thmst30 and different stuff in franchise including scores around the league and special post game celebrations based on the week

and kickers make it over defensive players such as urlacher,j.taylor,winfield,ect...

i hope thats fixed
