I heard someone say that Ian was "gone" because of the relentless (personal?) bashing or something like that. What is the deal? What happened?

Ian said he was taking a break from the forums because of some of the rediculous comments made about the video.

People lie. Ian isn't one of those people.

Thanks both of you guys for the info. I do hope he does decide to stay for good. Even though I wasn't that impressed with the video. I have never/will never bash or question Ian and his teams drive or dedication to making a GREAT game of football.

How is that cowardly? If anything that would be considered brave.....this makes no sense, besides we should be trying to embrace him being active on this board, not deter him....

I just don't understand what he expected people to say when they saw this video..were we supposed to LIE and say everything looked great when there were some glaring issues in the short video we were shown? Issues that we were TOLD had been fixed, btw.

MAYBE his frustration isn't REALLY with what people said, MAYBE it was about his own disappointment in how the game has turned out this year, especially after all the bold proclamations he's made since taking over last year. Maybe reality has sunk in for him that band-aids cannot cover the gaping wound that is Madden's gameplay.....just a thought.
All of this from a two minute clip?

Would the newly re-added sliders fix many of the problems in the video. Like lower run block would fix the gaping holes, and lower pass block would help the pass rush, maybe forming more of a pocket? The speed slider could slow things down a bit. And if we globally lowered acceleration it might stop them from going lightning fast from a standstill. I think the tools to fix this stuff are provided.

I have my doubts too, but watching and reading all the blogs, I don't see how anyone can say the game hasn't taken a big step in the right direction. Ian never said this would be a 1 year process. I think people who can't recognize that and give props are just haters. You don't have to buy the game or like it, but why waste your time with the negative comments that don't bring anything to the conversation but more fuel for the haters.

Also imo Madden has never been a game where you could see the difference in videos. I always had to play it to appreciate it. People invest way too much time and energy into analyzing these videos.

Ironically, you just demonstrated the personal attacks that the others have been talking about.

I haven't read the whole thread...Are most people disappointed or encouraged by the video????


Most are not happy with it. I'd say I am a little disappointed but overall Ive seen a lot of good things in other videos . So Im not going to get all crazy over one vid where Pro Tak wasn't even functional..

I am fairly sure the game will be leaps and bounds better than '09 and thats all I can ask for.. Improvement..

Rome wasn't built in a day..

The locomotion is better still needs some work if you look at the deangelo run and compare it to the westbrook run, there not turning on a quick dime like people are claiming, The line has changed even though I'm starting to think there not gonna be any double team block so I guess will see, The biggest improvement that I noticed right away is that the wrs are planting there foots on there route running instead of just turning twitching like 09. Also no more spinning catch.

The run animation even though improved a little needs to be be scaped next year, I know they said there gonna overhaul there locomotion and borrow fifa. Honestly if you can't see the difference I don't know what to say, I'm starting to think people want madden to fail from the geko, its like a cub fan who can't wait to see how there gonna get disappointed in the playoffs, they do need to work on momentom more 2k had it good sometimes a little to much was forced.

The game has improved and it is obvious. The expectations for this game are high and will never be met in my opinion. For me I will pass judgement until I get my own hands on the game. Though everything I see is positive and has me excited.

Same here. I'll judge when I get my hands on the final copy of the game.

Thanx sage people need to breakdown what they don't like and stop whinning, esspically the play when the db is blitzing and misses is target pretty bad and its pretty obvious its user controled which I don't mind so I don't know how you can complain about it. Now if the db was running at the same speed and was able to turn or twitch on a dime and sack mcnabb then I would have been pissed , so I'm actually glad he over pursuited and blow pass him like that.

Just watched the video for the first time, but nothing in that video impresses me. The cut scene during the pile up looks very arcadey and takes away from the action on the field. But the little kiddies will love it. This isn't a boxing game.

I agree all the changes are simple changes that needed to happen your not gonna be wowed by it cause it's been seen in past madden and 2k series. I still want to see how protak tackling is gonna look during the game.
