Gameplay looks the same....... I still can't get over the Horrible animations, especially all of the leaning and lack of physics.

I like the animation with him on the ground, but I would've liked to see the training staff come out.

It's amazing what people will pick out in a video game.... For all I care the camera man could be wearing a speedo I don't give a dammm..
That will not affect me one bit on how I play the game..SMH

I've only checked out a couple of the videos so far, but this has to be the best Madden video I've ever seen. Seriously, for a second there at the start I thought it was a video of an actual game.

- QB accuracy looks like it finally impacts the game

Basically it looks like the game will be more realistic and more of a challenge than years past, which makes CFM all the more fun and rewarding.

How in the world did they miss this 2 years in a row? Really EA? The sad part is snow games look great especially with the lighting but camera men & fans wearing shorts & t-shirts totally ruins the immersion. This is inexcusable smh. Attention to detail is a must for Next Gen. Living Worlds has to be flushed out next year (cheerleaders, woman & children in the crowd, detailed sideline players with names on their jerseys, etc..)

I believe it's because your join date....you need to have a certain amount of posts to be able to start your own thread.

I don't believe the # of posts have ever been revealed...so just join in the conversation and before you know it,you'll be able to create your own thread.

Not Impressed with the videos. Don't get me wrong I'm still getting Madden, but with the videos so short just couldn't get a real feel or flow of the games if you know what i mean.
 
# 192 OhMrHanky @ 08/14/14 10:51 PM
Not that it matters, but it just kills me to see some of these tourney players still rocking the 2 man rush on defense and playing as a Dlineman and dropping back into coverage (making it a 1 man rush). Lol. Part of what has killed the online experience for years. Supposedly the draw plays will work better this year to counter that 'strategy'. But, I just get a kick out of seeing it. I've always been more of a franchise offline player, but I'm hoping to go online again with 15 as it seems more sim friendly.

Just watching the packers bears game in the snow and I'm the one to care about gameplay more then anything but man oh man as you look in the crowd in the snow game they all have on short sleeves and some shorts smh. Like with these new consoles crowds and sidelines should have different attire for different weather.
 
# 194 Connolly22 @ 08/14/14 11:01 PM
god damn the gameplay looks freaking fantastic

When your playing in the Snow, you want to feel like you are. And if the fans and camera men are wearing shorts then it takes away from that.
Does it really though? I mean REALLY ask yourself "does it?" IMO to feel like you're playing in the snow it comes down to players sliding more, losing their footing, more dropped passes, etc...not the attire of a non-player who will rarely be seen while playing.

Gameplay is definitely number one, but I think most posters here also appreciate visual authenticity as well. Just look at the popularity of the NCAA '07-'14 and Madden 25 photograph threads. It's just kind of lame and breaks a bit of the immersion to see this two years in a row when the rest of the game has such an authentic look to it. I've spent a lot of time in replay mode over the years just admiring the look of things.

I want gameplay first, but I also don't want aspects of visual authenticity to take steps back like this. Madden has had weather appropriate crowds/sidelines in the past.

Actually I think it does as well. Is it a gamebreaker? Absolutely not, but it does hurt the "atmosphere" of the game. With the crowds being more detailed and sidelines being populated, you would like for them to help "sell" the atmosphere of the game taking place, whether its rain jackets or warm clothing on cold nights.

I hope its ok for me to bring this up, but in MLB The Show, it helps sell the atmosphere of early spring games or postseason games in October, with the crowd wearing jackets, long sleeve shirts, hats, taboggans, and gloves. It's also nice that children are at the game.

While none of that takes anything away from the gameplay, it does take away from the atmosphere and the "fantasy world" that you're living in during that game.

This is something I noticed as well after watching all the videos. It isn't where it needs to be, but its on the right track, and is 10 times better than what we witnessed during the E3 videos.

The graphics do look really good, but Madden, you really need to step your player-movement game up. The flow of the game does not look natural to me. Players seem a bit stiff. Hopefully this is something they can figure out over this generation. FIFA has much more realistic motion, so I don't see why Madden can't have it.

Maybe it will feel better than it looks.
 
# 200 cima @ 08/14/14 11:38 PM
To each their own I guess. I just feel like the people that complain about a cameraman's lower body attire are the type of people that would complain that their wallet is too small for their $50s and their diamond shoes are too tight.
