Who bashed the game in this thread?

The WWE hits have to go. That double tackle by Cushing looked really good. The tackle at 00:23 is that same unbreakable animation that we see all the time. I thought when they first announced the "infinity engine" every tackle would be different? Yet we've been seeing these NFL Blitz tackles for years. I wonder how high up open field tackling cone was on the Madden Wishlists.

Really impressed actually.

Defense does look fun. Tackle cone really doesn't bother me at all. I think I'll use it in gauntlet mode for practice and have it turned off for games.

Everyone's bashing the wwe shoulder tackle; im not a fan of it either, but if it's balanced to where its difficult to execute and is an inaccurate way of tackling (ie not considered a conservative tackle) then I'm fine with that.

Graphics look better. Just want madden to be fun again. It feels like a chore to play madden, whereas 2k is fun every time I plat it.

You know how movie trailers ruin plots and storylines sometimes? Looks like I've seen all of the tackling animations for the game in this trailer

What Rex didn't mention that I learned through Clint on Twitter: is that the heat-seeker steering still applies to the right stick.[tweet] https://twitter.com/ClintOldenburg/s...71774499569665[/tweet]

I am not all too caught up in this trailer because of the context is captured in the form of highlights and not flowing gameplay so I will pause judgment until I see gameplay from Youtubers who are using the truck stick and juke animations and judge how defenders respond to these actions.

I do see positives however in graphics which look noticeably improved and the gameplay does have a better flow to it.

even with just the defensive camera angle it will feel like a breath of fresh air to the series

Okay, I'm confused after this video. I've been waiting since Madden 12 for a game worth buying, especially now that I have disposable income.

In Madden 13, they added the ragdoll tackling and falling system.

In Madden 14.25 they added the fancy new running back control scheme.

In this trailer, I don't seen that either of those are present anymore. Am I missing something?

I also don't see how the cone will work with multiple defenders for gang tackling.
