Let's hope they fix it in the next game. It's looked bad since Madden 06. There are things that look a lot better. But don't get it twisted, Madden still has a long way to go guys.

November 15th can't come soon enough!

All they need is better character customization (like mlb the show), a more in depth my career (like mlb the show), db/WR interactions******, dynamic uniforms and pads (meaning you can grab a qb by the shoulder pad just reaching over the lineman etc), and with the dynamic pads and the "feel it" awareness they have added they should now be able to create the proper shifting of weight.

Watch 74 in the footwork video. Ice skates at the snap.

Looks like having speed rushers will finally mean something.

Looks a lot better than those ESPN clips they've been showing. I feel like they should scrap those and just show these types of videos.

Hopefully we'll get to see some WR/DB interactions soon.

I think for me, those QB animations/drop backs/and scrambling animations are up there at the top of the list that need a major overhaul.

I cannot stand when you roll with with a right/left handing QB to their non-dominant hand side. The spin or whatever the QB does looks absolutely horrible.

I wanna' be able to do a spin out the pocket to avoid a pass rusher that Romo does all the time! Come on EA, do it for Madden 15!!

Finally some things that give me hope for this game. This has me convinced that EA has purposely kept things out of some of the footage so they can show bits and peaces as we move along. This wouldn't be the first time they did this. The ESPN footage is clearly last gen game play and what was seen at E3 and by the guys who visited EA is this stuff.

I don't mind if the graphics aren't as big of a step forward. This gen's graphics have been pretty good. I just want a step forward in gameplay. I think that is what we are getting. I know some will say that things should have already been in the game well it wasn't. I don't care if double team pass block should have already been in as long as it's in now.

These videos are why I don't jump ship or jump back on week to week. I will wait until I get all the info then make a decisions.

Really liked the "War in the Trenches" series. But you can see how they are just adjusting the existing animations. They are snapping to the next blocking assignment, not flowing. They really need a totally new set of animations. But, all things considered, I have hope for the future. They seem to be finally getting down the things that made the other game so compelling. Now they just have to build a set of animations that actually make it look fluid. They're getting there.

Maybe JP is right. Hopefully next year they will get all of the pieces together. My biggest hope is that they will finally embrace signature animations while they sort this all out. I finally want to be able to say, "That's Peyton." Can't see his face, save a cutscene or two. But they could get his, and all of the other big QB's throwing styles down. It's that stuff that would finally get this game into "Wow!" territory, IMO. Right now, for all the improvements I just saw, something just screams "generic!" Maybe I've just been playing too much NBA2k14....
