I disagree respectfully, especially after reading and seeing the equipment blog.

Hey SageInfinite,

Cool yeah I saw the equipment revamp video and it looked a bit better. I was hoping for something more along the lines like the link below.

Another thought that would make Madden a bit more realistic is how players line up on defense and on the field. Everyone looks to still be in the same exact pose.

Not sure if you play NBA 2k16 but they did a wonderful job at creating off ball animations like players walking around to their spots on the floor etc. It just makes it feel more organic.

I saw a post that they added like 900+ scripting animations so it will be nice to see how they are integrated in the final game. I have not seen much from what has been shown thus far.

I can see the polish, and the equipment upgrade is huge. Everyone has their panties in a bunch about better running/jukes/stiff-arms, but IMO they are just bringing back the better running system that was in 15 that was nerfed in 16. With that said, it's still a huge improvement in my opinion, because running was really good in 15, we got better passing in 16, now we have those things, better AI on defense (the jury is not out on this), and better special teams. I'm guessing that the talk upon release will primarily be about AI and the line of scrimmage, for better or worse.

I don't even notice equipment so maybe that's where we're different. I'm saying if someone put up unlabled 16 and 17 videos next to each other, I seriously doubt anyone would be able to tell the difference (sans new equipment).

Sure you could. I can easily see a difference in gameplay.

The new equipment is definitely noticed and appreciated by me, but from a gameplay standpoint I don't notice much difference. I'm sure playing the game is a totally different story, but from the very controlled footage released so far, I don't see much difference.

I would still disagree because I couldn't juke anyone last year.

Granted, this is a labeled video, but I like how Sim points this stuff out.

You know the answer to that.

Based on the video evidence, I would say it's better vs last year.

People can criticize or praise video evidence or did the rules change up?

It's like Groundhog Day, the movie around here. The first person to respond to the OP should just type "My usual response" and every person to follow should just quote that. The Username will tell us the rest.

Trailer looked great to me. Looking forward to it..I'm praying that the QB doesn't always keep the ball on option plays when in coach mode.....

Not a Madden fan,
but I have to say that this years title looks amazing.

Hopefully, they addressed penalties in the game. I see plenty of instances in this new title, where you could a get more organic/in the flow of the game type of penalties, instead of having to nerf the penalty sliders up or down.

Now if they could just add some authenticity to Franchise mode, I'd be a lot happier.

As a 2k guy at heart and been playing Madden for the last several years, last years Madden was the best one.

If they can somehow master the environment and truly make me feel "it" I'll be happy. Hopefully the new announcing team, sounds and updates to franchise will finally make me forget about the "good ol days."

One thing that they can't seem to import that I loved from All Pro 2k is the QB animations.
I'd like to see those touched more next year.

Looking forward to giving this year's game a go....

I agree the little bounce step thing the qbs do at the end of their motion is annoying.
I don't think a single QB in the league does that.

Forgive me for being thoroughly confused.


Not only that but madden 16 was like the first good madden in like 10 years. It was the first madden that didn't suck in 10 years and was like the biggest single year improvement in sports video history.
