Is it just me or does the ball size look better?

I loved running in M10. You could cut on a dime and it felt The most realistic. Btw, see u in a couple days son!!

What's up with that sound effect when the ball is thrown. It makes it sound like an arcade game

I'm going to try and find out tonight if it's actually in the current build or just a video effect, tweeting a couple community guys about it.

# 45 sgibs7 @ 05/03/12 08:53 PM

i would imagine that sound is just something for this video guys.

its never been in the game ever (i do play with my tv down so maybe its been in the game in the past haha)- probably just special effects for the video

Yeah and I think they are using some stuff from nfl films for audio sound effects this year anyway, that's what the following statement from the audio playbook description suggests.

Audio

"Madden NFL 13 delivers a superb audio experience that faithfully replicates NFL Sundays with a new commentary team and the implementation of innovative technology along with unique resources provided by NFL Films."

It wouldn't be the first time. I think it was Madden 07 that had that air raid sound on deep thrown passes. When it was initially shown in video on Gametrailers everyone throught the GT guys added it to the game for effect, turned out it was actually in the game.

I'm glad you bought this up BFD.. They also need to ask about Franchise sharing too.. This would make it alot easier on me and my friends who play offline together.

I don't hear that sound in this video

Wasn't trying to respond to anyone but seen ur comment when skimming to get to the bottom of the page to leave my comment - They fixed that in 12.

The new graphics package for the swipes and layovers look great, as well as the 3D menu screen but what I really like is how much more the players turn to locate the ball. Watching the part of the vid where they had the Madden cam shots got me smiling a bit regarding those head turns. It made a nice difference in my mind seeing that. Kudos.

I really like the new graphics package too, but the scorebug needs to be touched on, looks way too arcade/wii ish

Now we have official word on this

Josh Davis ‏ @jpdavis1982
@Shopmaster Did u notice that sound effect in the madden 13 gameplay playbook vid when the ball is thrown? Is that in the game? Sounds fake

Shopmaster ‏ @Shopmaster
@jpdavis1982 no that's not in the game.

That was our "poor man's" online franchise and sadly, more complete than the actual online franchise offered in Madden today. Anyway, yeah an EA Locker for transferring a variety of Madden files among the community is long overdue.

Hahaha! I know....

# 54 SageInfinite @ 05/03/12 09:26 PM

LMAO @ that sound. Glad it's not in the game.

# 55 mrmass413 @ 05/03/12 10:34 PM

Damn that intro looked good.

# 56 DickDalewood @ 05/03/12 10:54 PM

Love that they got Mark S. doing the advertising for this!

And presentation is looking fantastic. Color me excited.

# 57 imwhatzup @ 05/03/12 11:01 PM

Will there be the honeycomb pads in the game? I see old ones in pictures and clips.

Mark should give them some input on how to fix the OL/DL interactions.
