Geez! Extreme close-up of Ian's face. I swear that was just a random dude with a friend who happened to bring a camcorder. Ian didn't look to excited for that interview lol!

I am excited about what he's talking about. I really hope the gameplanning turns out well so I can actually use game flow without feeling hindered.

Re: Madden NFL 11 Interview with Developer Ian Cummings

I know I suck as an interviewer. Actually we won't be posting any gameplay next week(unless EA releases some), shooting the screen was off-limits, thats a normal things for most games this early in development.

Nice interview bro. The only thing I don't by from Ian is the fact that he said sprint button really never worked. It seemed to work for me. But everthing is pretty much the samething I been reading all do. Nothing new. But good interview.

Re: Madden NFL 11 Interview with Developer Ian Cummings

Happy to hear about the blocking being worked on.

Can't wait till they release info on Franchise mode, I was getting worried.

Yea I know what you mean. Like Ian said there at the end. He said at this time he can't talk about the other modes right now. So now people can stop worrying about franchise mode for offline for right now. There will a blog about it later on with other modes. Just takes time.

What do you expect him to look like doing a interview and all. The man probably working 14 hours a day and plus doing tons of other interviews on top of that. Plus he flying all over this country to places like NYC for the draft and soon he will be going out west to do E3 a month from now. The guy is tired. LOL If you did all that on a daily bases. Then you would look like that to.

I dig the elimination of sprint...as long as they remembered to ensure the CPU can't randomly do it too.

Some good stuff in there, but I'm still ehh on locomotion based on the little we've seen thus far. The running I saw still looks disjointed and stiff. It's not a huge deal to me personally (and it's still plenty early), but I'm curious to see how much, if at all, it will smooth out by release.

Madden is looking really good but I'm telling you this will be all for nothing if the franchise mode isn't equally impressive.

I would say that M11 could be a good game, but I know better.

Re: Madden NFL 11 Interview with Developer Ian Cummings

I understand what they are doing! The ratings of the players come into play more.

I played alot of Head Coach 09! I don't need to hear my D-Coord saying "He's running the wrong play" over & over again. Hopefully they are alot better!

Does this mean that we get a full coaching staff?

When promoting or bringing in a new Coordinator, does the teams playbook change? Does that coach just call the same plays as per the teams offense and defense systems?

Can the head coach take over playcalling duties on both sides of the ball?

Lol. I for one am on the first car of the hype train. Madden and NCAA look improved with NCAA probably improving the most. Seeing that gameplay was really focused on I can't help but be excited for both games. Throw in Backbreaker as well and I'm going to have my hands full this year with football video games!!

Re: Madden NFL 11 Interview with Developer Ian Cummings

With all of the information we have now, I'm going to buy this game asap no doubt.

If they give us info about the offline franchise mode being improved, I will play this game 7 days a week for multiple hours. Offline franchise is the most important thing to me in video games. Games like CH2k8, MLB The Show...those are GREAT franchise modes. I hope Madden can relate to those SOMEHOW and make this game a classic.

Agreed bro. It's looking good for this year. But it is still early. But I'm hyped up as usual. Never fails.
