    Re: More Madden NFL 15 Details Revealed

    Interested in seeing and reading more info on the following:
    *Defense
    *New broadcast presentation/dramatic camera angles
    *Dynamic pregame and halftime features
    *Pass rush tools
    *Open field tackling
    *Smarter AI

    I could be wrong, but the following seems like an assist to the casual fans which is fine:
    *Playcalling changes (coach suggestions, Madden community picks, and concept plays)

    **Coach suggestions were already there. I'm assuming "Madden community picks" is a list of the most popular plays called by the community overall. "Concept plays" I have no idea, but I hope it isn't some type of money play schemes created by tournament guys.

    I hope they are keeping realistic football in mind when polishing up and promoting there back of the box features.

      (Dynamic pre-game and halftime shows) I want Madden 15 to shut me up about NFL 2K5 presentation. Does this mean we will finally get real highlights with commentary breaking down the action during halftime. Will we finally get to see highlights from other games going on around the league during season/franchise mode, or possibly highlights of other games going on around the league if we play the game on Sunday's (NFLToday). Lord knows I been posting on here to the devs for over 9 years asking for it.....
      If they add just highlights to the halftime show it is more than that is on Current Gen. All they show now is just some stats. Hopefully, it is more than what we got last time with the extra point (though I would rather have that than nothing). Don't get me the wrong the extra point was a good starting point that never got added to and eventually was eliminated all together.

      Hopefully halftime and post game include things from around the league and not just the current game. Also, I was hoping to see a weekly highlight show (similar to 2k) with stories from around the league, highlights, etc. I just cant get into reading a twitter feed on a game to see who is doing what each week. (though I am constantly on twitter in real life).

        1. player lock from a first person perspective.
        2. and defense to balance the over powered offense from Madden25
        3. IMo seems like they brought some of the broadcast halftime features etc over from the NCAA series. which is a good thing.
        4. in depth player profiles is a good thing, which mean they may have finally added more player attributes. maybe now penalties will work.

        Im not a huge Madden fan so Ill remain cautiously optimistic.

          IF they make the presentation worth it, I'll buy it.

          Things I want:

          Real broadcast presentation with varied announcer chat.
          Decent camera angles like we see on Sundays.
          Bring back the post-game studio presentations for franchise mode.
          Bring back the half-time summaries and highlights.
          Decent MVP and Crunchtime presentations/replays at the end of the game.
          Give me the coach back 'in my ear'

          You know - like Madden 11 with PS4 graphics... k?

          The graphics look good for 15, but the blurb bits are just spin that mean nothing. EA have a long history of taking stuff out of Madden that I liked, as I've mentioned elsewhere. Make them stop and put some of it back

            "including the most immersive defensive gameplay " - They've been saying this for years.


            "Madden NFL 15 introduces a revolutionary crowd-sourced play-calling system with three distinct ways to run offense and defense: coach suggestions, Madden community picks, and concept plays providing a strategic edge to take on all rivals" - I love how they call this "revolutionary". That's so EA. Haven't they had this for years? And is anyone really clamoring for the community to make play call suggestions?


            "Dynamic pre-game and halftime shows, in-depth player profiles, as well as enhanced on-field graphics deliver next-generation broadcast presentation" - Here's another one they say every year.


            Honestly, this is the dame laundry list of "features" that they release every year.

              What I mostly care about is the animations and player movement being realistic. As long as this game still has terrible animations, it will be a joke to me.

                I don't like to be debbie downer for those wondering what "concept plays" are but what they most likely mean by concept play are the same old (boring, outdated, inefficient, unrealistic) pre-made play selection screens; they just gave it a fancy name now.

                  But we haven't even seen the real graphics yet.

                    I'm going to be interested to see how they handle the presentation.

                    It mentions teaming up with ESPN but tne thing I really don't want to see is a full ESPN broadcast presentation. While it would probably look really nice, I'd personally only want to see it for Monday Night games. It worked perfect for NCAA but there's only one game on ESPN in the NFL each week and then you throw in the fact that Nantz and Simms both do CBS games and it starts to become a bit messy. If they took old ESPN overlays and combine them into individual broadcasts for different games, that could be something interesting I think.

                    I started thinking about the Tony Bruno show and how awful, yet cool it was and how something could still work now. I wouldn't mind having something that resembles a radio show where somebody just talks about everything going on in the franchise. Scores, standings, leaders, etc. To me, that would be way better than a weekly highlight show.

                    The pre-game stuff has me way more intrigued than the halftime stuff. I've never really cared for a halftime show so there's not really much they're going to be able to do there that is going to keep me from button mashing through it. If they can achieve a good pre-game lead in though, then I'll be really happy. My only worry is that it will be tailored to play now games and as you move further into your franchise it will become irrelevant. Still wanting an in-game ticker showing scores and would much prefer that to game breaks of highlights.

                      we'll if there teaming up with espn finally I hope its to do the halftime show like what used to be in 2k...

                        I've been waiting for player lock ever since NCAA implemented it into their game!

                        Other then that, nothing really sounded that interesting to me.

                        Of course I'm excited for the new tackling and presentation, but I'll wait until I see actual gameplay first.

                          They are probably just going to add DL moves that they removed years ago and call it a new feature... no worries

                            They are going to add a DL "modifier" for D-Line play, similar to what they added for running last year. (Clint Oldenburg has eluded to this coming before last years release)

                            I think that is great and should finally make playing D-Line/DE/OLB fun again (If it is implemented well). However, I will say it again, nothing matters until they integrate an all new locomotion system in the game, as well as a new animation engine.

                              Would be nice if you save highlights during your game and when others play their game they are shown during their halftime

                                Did next gen M25 at least make it so could save highlights in an online match? Or are we still waiting for that "all-new" feature?
