Who said presentation was first?

Tibouron has different departments working on each aspect of the game.

I wonder if they could try something similar to The Show where they actually go for name brand items and tie it into MUT to satisfy both sides. Obviously they'd be somewhat limited because Nike has a hold on things like gloves for the most part but I know Cutters has a few players out there and cleats is free game I believe. They could do this with Visor's, Gloves, Undershirts, Cleats, Sleeves, etc. and basically give boosts for MUT while just making them selectable items for everything else.

On one hand they make the equipment junkies happy and get to add a bunch of authentic gear which is a term that probably already has marketing's mouth watering. And then on the other side you get to add more items to MUT that have a slight effect on something as well as diluting the item database and making it harder to get better items and thus potentially creating greater pack sales.

Speculation is fun. It will be interesting to see what they come up with and I hope if they add a bunch of new things they also provide some more options as well in terms of customization. Home/Away, Warm/Cold, color schemes, etc. Should find out soon though.

Oh god, don't remind me.

Puke.

Small but a tiny thing I'd want them to fix is the sock lengths for the striped sock options. Takes away from the overall look of those players that wear theirs low or high.

I have had a problem with this for the longest, and another thing I want when it comes to socks is more of a wrinkled thicker look to them for the mid and high socks as of now it just looks painted on, if Ea worked on the small details in this game it would really go a long way in the overall look of the game.

Really excited about the news that equipment has possibly been upgraded. Any idea when we can expect to see screen shots?

I am one of the equipment junkies and one thing that has always bugged me is the gap on the 3 bar rb facemask.I would love to see that finally fixed. To me it is one of the "mean" looking classic facemasks but the gap that Madden has always had takes away from it. I know it sounds silly but little things.

Probably another 4 weeks out when EA has their EA Play gathering in LA

It would be nice to get a surge of information rather than releasing blogs with small bits.
