Madden NFL 10 Blog: A Sneak Peek at the Wildcat w/ Screenshots

[xtoddx]

The small numbers on the shoulders are kind of irritating, but looks good other than that. Well, the sleeves don't look that great either. I say for a bonus Monday blog we get a model of the new Lions unis!

I just read dude aboves post about the logo, and wow that is terrible. How does that go unnoticed?!?!? It's hard to be optimistic about things when stuff like that is wrong.

Why not make every player look the same, 6-1 250lbs, screw all that, it's all about gameplay, right?

agreed... it should be all about gameplay.. but then players couldn't all weigh the same because weight would actually mean something..

if you want customization, go get Midnight Club L.A

This is a football game, and Andy understands they have an art department, but for people to complain as much as they do about visors and different helmets, is ridiculous

Every time you post that is what I do.

This comparison right here made me change my underpants. I haven't got a good feel for the graphics until this comparison right here. The DOF does need some tuning, but this is a step in the right direction.

My point is they only have a YEAR to improve madden from last year, i would rather see them spend their efforts and time on saving gameplay points like busted franchise, blocking, wr-db interaction like they are, then have people designing different cleats.

They have done a good job already making players look more original with the facemasks, towles, gloves, sleeves.

I think at a point it has to be one or the other cause EA only has so much resources and man power, and so little time to drastically improve the game.

True. But this is what I don't get when I see responses like yours...how/what does this take away from the team that actually works on the actual physics and game engine?


This is my last response to this topic.
