Madden NFL 16 News Post


EA Sports has just posted their Madden NFL 16 presentation details. Madden fans will see "On the Field" cameras, which really get close to the action, during their biggest moments. Whether that be touchdowns, sacks or trash talking. They have also added a new Wirecam, which is similar to a broadcast Wirecam, but much better, since it is positioned right next to the QB.

Improving the crowds was one of the many improvements for Living Worlds. You will see crowd props, including rally towels for the stadiums that feature them, fan signs, foam fingers and female fans in the game. Crowd signs will be team specific, and you will see fans head track the action on the field. The stadium atmosphere has been improved with team specific chants and fight songs.

Everyone in the crowd and on the sidelines will wear official apparel from the NFL shop. This includes jackets, long sleeves, winter hats, and other weather-appropriate gear. Speaking of weather-appropriate gear, you won't see any members of the media wearing shorts or kneeling in the snow this year, you will see them in their appropriate colored media vests.

The Steadicam operator cameraman will be seen in various places during the game. He will actually come out on the field and get an ISO closeup shot after touchdowns. Some of the post play action shots will be seen from his vantage point.

Quote:
Post-play behaviors continues to get a huge push with more signature celebrations and related content, as well as the addition of opposing team post-play interactions. There was a big focus on cleaning up behavior after the play, including pile avoidance, how players decelerate, and how/when they react with one another. The team also added new animations for when players are frustrated with whomever is on the other side of the line.

All-new “Drive Starters” add more context and storytelling to our commentary this year. Drive Starters take place on each change of possession, and provide storytelling commentary and visuals to highlight key performances and game trends. With more than 200 unique story types and hundreds of commentary improvements, Drive Starters tell the story of a game like never before.

On the audio side, the team went to great lengths to ensure Madden NFL 16 is the best-sounding game in franchise history. The return of EA Trax allowed us to implement several new events to play in stadiums during games, and new IR Reverb tech gives each stadium a whole new feel.

EA, please please please fix your presentation. Spend a year to really bolster the authenticity and immersive impact of a true telecast quality presentation for Madden. I've avoided buying this game for 5+ years now because it looks stale and simply does not come close to the broadcast level presentation seen in other sports games. This is a BIG deal. If you really want to be immersive and dynamic you have to fix these ongoing issues.
1) Ticker. This needs to show out of town scores and stats from around the league as they happen in our franchise.
2) Out of Town highlights. Sports breaks are incredibly immersive. It makes our leagues feel alive. I want to see what my rivals are doing. This was an amazing feature way back in the 90's where our game would cut to an out of town highlight.
3) Halftime and Post-game shows. Honestly, this is one of Madden's biggest fouls. Put together a dynamic and in depth game and league wrap-up show. Show highlights, scores and stats from all games going on with commentary on big plays.
4) SportsCenter. Give us a weekly show that goes over everything happening in our franchise. Again, show highlights and discuss injuries and the impact games will have in the league.
5) Camera Angles. When are we going to see Madden look like it does when we watch it on TV? The "broadcast" camera angle is not quite right. Give us an option to play or watch games with true-broadcast camera angles and overlays as they appear on network television. This is one of the most immersive tools that other sports games use.
