Who signs off on this?

Uwotm8?!
Play starts at :38. 2nd thing I noticed. Animations kill this game.

I will say the graphics look like the Kaep screen in this vid. 1st thing I noticed.

But the animations... even if I could get past the lack of football AI, the animations ruin this game for me. Casual, hardcore, sim, tournament, freestyle... I can't think of a gamer-type that wouldn't appreciate realistic animations.

Here's to hoping new animations are turned off like they did with the physics last year.

The graphics look good and I'm excited to see more. Skipped 25 so I will probably be picking this up.

Not to go off topic, but I honestly believe sim didn't do that for views man. He even addressed it in his Madden impressions. The fact that Rex is calling out 2k now proves something is going on.

Exactly. I've been saying this since the first trailer, but people were too dismissive and pessimistic to think it was actually the case. Yes, that Kaep picture is legitimately from gameplay.

At this point I think anyone who denies the obvious upgrades to the graphics/player models is just trolling. The game, without a doubt, even without a true HD video to go offf yet, clearly LOOKS much improved.

The graphics look better, but it doesn't look like the Kap screen to me, which was close to photorealistic.

Stills look better than a game does in motion, granted, and the time of day is not the same, hence different lighting, but there was never a moment where I got a feeling of photorealism from any video. I'm sorry.

As for the lighting issue, Madden has to be the only other game, aside from Watch Dogs, where it looks like a totally different game, in terms of quality, depending on the time of day. That is an indication that those two teams don't do lighting very well.

You're comparing a high res screen shot with off camera compressed video streams though..

Graphics look great. You can tell the difference between the new and old animations. The new animations look great. As they continue to develop the game, the old ones will finally be removed. This video tells me one thing. And that is this team CAN do animations correctly. Can't wait to see how this game looks in a few years.

Heath Miller gives the ball to the refs.

Are you serious? I haven't been keeping up with anything Madden. Just haven't been interested, but EA would do well to get their locomotion and animations together before they call anyone out.

Where does Rex do this?
 
# 31 Cardot @ 06/11/14 02:44 PM
At around the :50 mark, there is a replay going on, but the playbooks are blocking about 90% of the screen. They have done this for years. I don't understand this design decision?? Can't they have the replay/animations in one part of the screen, and then the playbook in another part of the screen? So annoying.

True, but so is everyone else that is saying it looks the same, aren't they?

And they STILL haven't caught up. Hilarious. I admire his spirit, but imo Madden is still nothing to brag about.
 
# 38 Hooe @ 06/11/14 02:56 PM
Guys, we're not going to talk about the Rex Dickson "challenge" video in every thread. Take it to the Other Football forum, especially with respect to anything not related to Madden, please.

Thanks.

Graphics look good, too bad there are more important things than that. Animations still need an upgrade.
