Maybe something funky happened with the roster. As long as I can go in and edit the qbs should be kool.

Yeah, stuff like this happens all the time in sports games. Roster updates, or other tweaking ends up unintentionally disabling something that goes unnoticed.

I noticed they removed the sig stance maybe thata what causing the animation not to play or as suggested above the roster is messed up. JP can you ask about this.

At least the motion is there thank god

Here's that intro video, this one should work

What's with the secrecy surrounding this video? Was it released too early or something? There was a thread here featuring it that disappeared quickly. The immersion in that video looks damn good, too. Don't see why they would try to keep it under wraps.

Including qb throwing styles.

Good catch, so where is RGiles on this, QB throwing styles is his Madden mission statement. Also how many different kind are they, do they still include specific QB motions, if not why?

Overall good, but ok, opening sequence to a game (before kickoff even), and fans are going insane for some reason...

NE @ NYJ, 3rd quarter, Brady gets sacked and fumbles the ball on his own 15, and not one person in the crowd stands up.

For those who played the game. How often did you see overthrows?

Watching the Skins on tv their pants always seemed to be more of a mustard color, in the vids here they seem to be a highlighter yellow color. I might be over thinking it, never seen them in person though.

The Redskins yellow pants in general are a huge pain point for me. This is the 3rd year of the Nike deal and they still don't have their yellow Nike pants in the game.

I know that signature QB throwing styles are in but what about QB stances? In every vid I've seen every QB had the same stance.

Speaking of features being removed, they also need to bring back signature ball carrying styles. They had them in Madden 07 but took them out smh. I hate how evey RB carries & runs the ball the same way in Madden. Shady McCoy for example should carry the ball wide & away from his body unless he's in traffic like he does in real life. Also every back should not be able to pull off the same moves.

Going foward, players need to be differentiated not only by ratings but with signature animations. Now that the foundation is finally solid (although they still need to keep ironing out the animations) it's time to take this game to the next level. Get er done EA!

If they don't get it done next year, there's no point in even discussing it anymore.

Yeah very annoying... I've noticed in a couple of vids the user is changing the pant and socks mismatching the unis.

One of the most annoying things about this game, cb's getting interceptions and carrying the ball in perfect form! Most db's carry the ball with one hand after a pic; its an eye sore and looks even worst with the upgraded next-gen graphics.
Signature ball carrying styles would be great, but I would settle for about 5-10 different ball carrying styles, whats so hard about that? Seems like it wouldn't take much time and effort at all to mo-cap ball carrying styles.

Re: Madden NFL 15 Gameplay Videos - Day 1

Crossing routes were wide open too quick in nearly every video I watched. In general there seems to be too much separation between wr's and db's.

We are talking about Jets fans, a fan base that feels the need to remind us everyweek that they can spell J-E-T-S....

All I'm going to say is all you guys need to do yourselves a solid and learn about REAL NFL blocking schemes. Then learn about QB mechanics and footwork. Once you have both those down to a science, go back and look at the footage you're praising. Just keep in mind plays are designed with SPECIFIC blocking schemes which dictate the success or failure of a play. Don't believe it? Look it up. Not every team in the NFL uses the same generic hybrid nonsense you see in Madden. EXAMPLE: In the Jets vs Patriots video you have a toss to the outside but you get TWO nonsensical double teams in the middle while leaving TWO linebackers free to T off on the play essentially killing it. Not only that, the safety even comes up and helps destroy the play. So basically the play is dead before it even starts. Now this is less great defense and more dumb idiotic blocking design. No team in the NFL would EVER use such nonsense. As hard as it might be to believe, EVERY play has a specific scheme and design for the guys upfront. One missed block, one bad decision can dictate the play's success or failure. Let that sink into your head. SPECIFIC DESIGN. Something that is sorely missing in Madden. They need to fix it so that you get football outcomes based on football. Not based on sloppy mechanics. That hybrid blocking mess has to go. If a team uses zone blocking, the plays need to be designed to use zone blocking. If a team uses man blocking, the plays... well you get where I'm going. If you think I just made this out for kicks, then look it up for yourselves. This is nothing to do with hating on Madden, it is a fact. The game has the WORST hybrid blocking system I've seen.
