If this game has some kind of half and end of week/end of game I will buy.

Why can i not get this game in the UK! Pro football just isn't doing it...Only reason i even became interested in american football was through attending an FSU game (which was unreal)

no, the play is dead once a player's knee is down in college fb. pro ball (i.e Madden) the play would continue.

it just might, like the david tyree catch in madden and the over the shoulder catche animation from prior years.

The "anticipation" and "entrance" additions to Stadium Sounds is gonna be awesome.

This will be my anticipation music for sure.

so much buckeye hate in that first video.....

# 147 CuseGirl @ 04/22/11 01:57 PM

have they fixed the broken play action and since the defensive coverage will now respond to the routes being run, will it be possible to actually get a DB to bite on the play action....

In a blog or preview somewhere around here it was mentioned that play action was worked on. Last year the defense always knew if it was run or pass. This year they actually "watch" the play develop and make better decisions I guess based on play recognition.

I am not sure if it was just me, but it felt like the CPU knew what the user play was. Every time I called a running play I saw the Defense showing blitz to the correct gap presnap. Vice versa

This could possibly be the greatest football video game ever created, we just gotta play it for ourselves but I have never EVER been more impressed with a football games from pre uanch vids as I have with this game. VIDEO GAME FOOTBALL IS BACK. Cmon Madden please do what this game is.

It wasn't just you. I always noticed that and noticed it again last night when the defense was all up on the line for a double safety bltiz. Seeing this I hot routed my TE for a streak. Soon as I hot routed, the safety moved back off the line to go into man coverage with the TE I just hot routed.

I always had to switch plays after each play. It happened on Defense to. Every time I played a zone CPU called a play to exploit it.
IT really kept me from playing RB in RTG. Every time They called a run play for me the defense showed a heavy blitz.
Hopefully it is fixed

They already have dynamic attendance, but the fans only leave if the game is a blowout by I think 28 points or more. I would like to see fans start to exit the stadium based on how much time is left rather than how much the team is down by. A game where a team is down 14 or so with a few minutes left is technically "over", but the stadium will stay full anyway.

I don't think that was supposed to happen...certainly not that loud, lol. Ohio State only has 5,000 or so seats for the visiting team's section. I think they were just showing us what it sounds like...I don't know if the sound was actually from that game or just synced with the video footage.

Uh... it�s April. The real test will be the end of July. And judging by EA�s track record, the end of July ain�t gonna be pretty.

So your parents never get you what you want for Christmas and you feel the need to bring down everybody else's hopes? Misery loves company, sure, but the automatic response shouldn't always be negative. Have some hope, and if the final product blows then have at it.

I haven't seen a double hit tackle either. I keep seeing people say they're in there but I haven't seen it and, as far as I can tell, the devs haven't said that they are in. What I am seeing is a guy break a tackle then another guy comes and hits him, but I have not seen a guy getting tackled and, while getting tackled, someone else comes and cleans him up and causes him to change the direction of his fall. That's my idea of consecutive hit tackles. I see some guys come and latch on to a tackle that's already happening, but no one is coming in and changing the momentum of a tackle that's already happening.

Np, I already saw this one from a longer format.

To me, it's just one epinion vs(no pun intended) against another eopinion. The 1:24 or 1:34 minute mark where there is a definate momentum consecutive hit tackle. The youtuber says that is ok, to me, it's more than ok, it's much improve. Drove the TE backwards.

To me, it's a very biased eopinion. Plus, that trailer isn't the one I was looking at. There was another game play trailer that had several double-hit tackles, but people just want to focus on the negatives and not accentuate the positives at the same time.

I'll see if I can find that video for you with several double-hit momentum tackles.

I always noticed when I called a shotgun run play the CPU would be in 43 or 34. If I called shotgun pass play, they would be in nickel or dime.

I just wonder when EA will make CPU smarter through the use of tendencies and game planning. I'd love to see in the pre-game info what my upcoming opponent does on first down? 50% run 50% pass? Do they run to the field or strength? Or would tendencies show us how weak their simulations are?
