Dev Diary: Everything You See On Sunday

[DoubleDeuce]

Gah, your team should develop the NCAA games.

 

[Champ]

Ian you looked so cute.

 

[Champ]

Oh yea thanks for the video.

 

[Helicopter]

Ian you looked so cute.

:handkiss:

 

[LopaKa]

wow, im really impressed with madden this year. Looks awesome actually

 

[steeljake]

Don't worry about him, Ian, he is a debbie downer and a complainer. He is one of those guys that will never be satisfied because he enjoys whining more than he enjoys being happy. Don't let these dudes get to you.

At least play the game before you start bitching about it, nuk.

boooo! no sucking the devs cocks here. as much as i hate nuke sometimes he makes a valid point. the game looks great, it has the potential to be great, but so did the past few maddens on next gen. i am gaurdedly optomistic this year, but i will be honest about this...

all this so called attention to detail down to the uni's has me a bit worried that all the window dressing could mean that something else suffered. the game last year looked great, but it played like an atari game. thefact that online franchise doesnt have player contracts is a possible issue. However, I wont flame the devs until i actually play the and even though i enjoy talking shit on the net, i hope that i dont get the chance to flame them over this game.

Madden 10 looks great and im am really excited, only thing i am wondering about is wether the animation where your qb throws the ball way over your wr's head on a curl route and it always results in a int for the defense is gone

[Point Blank]

Looks great.

Good to see Ian on VSN.

 

[Rudi]

Good shit, all the addition of the little things could make the game great overall.

While it's good to see him here, it isn't quite complete until he tells someone to blow him.

I just hope nobody lets the cat out of the bag. The last thing we need is 2000 OS guys coming over and bitching about sock length in every thread. It's sad, because every good post gets flooded away by Apex and other tools.

That place is a lesson in the self-esteem movement. Everyone's opinion should be heard, everyone's important.

My ass.

 

[Poundtherock]

Glad I watched the video before reading some of the posts in the thread or I would have just turned it off. As Copter knows, us Tennesseans, as Ian is, got patience................to a point!

 

[St. Francisco]

Some of the EA dick sucking in this thread is almost unbearable..."omgz madden 10 is freeking umazing!1!!11" You haven't even played a demo, calm down.

Like some here, I remain cautiously optimistic. I'll admit, you have me excited to play Madden 2010...more excited than any next-gen version (which have all been absolute shit, in my humble opinion). However, I've been burned before. I've allowed myself to absorb all the hype, only to be thoroughly disappointed come release day. I sincerely hope that doesn't happen this year.

That being said, I appreciate your commitment to listening to fan's opinions, and keeping us all updated on all the little things going on with the game. It seems as though you and your team have finally put Madden on the right path again, and for that I am grateful. I'm a franchise guy, so to hear that the Head Coach guys took over the aspect nearly had me creaming my pants. I can't wait to dive into that this year.

I do have one question: will we be able to take in-game photos like NCAA? This is a vital part to my franchise reporting.

Oh, and welcome to VSN...we're abrasive, but 100% honest when it comes to our opinions.

i dont think you really understand the bassassatude (yup, that is a real word and you can look it up here www.fuckoffyougrammarnazifucktard.eatmynut.org if you dont believe me) of vsn if you think that will happen. when people act like idiots here, they dont get banned or given an infraction by a mod. instead the community takes it upon themselves to teach the noob how be a vsn'er, and if that fails, we flame them so bad they have an internet meltdown. learning to vsn is not just a funny saying, it is a warning. if you come here and try to be all 'im the man' or a complete tool, you will get pwned, and you will go home and cry. these are proven facts and it is as simple as that.

Good post, I like it. learning to vsn is not just a funny saying, it is a warning

Back on topic:

yes

Also, you can chose between the traditional 2-man Madden return formation or a 1-man return formation that's more NFL-ish.

Anyways, the trouble with your explanation is this; as you can clearly see by this thread, having a modicum of respect and treating Ian as a human being is seen as "sucking developer cock" on this site, and nobody's gonna come down on anyone for bashing Ian. Someone comes in this very thread, if the next post is, "Ian, you're a lazy fucking asshole who's fucked up Madden for the past 5 years and if I lived in Orlando I'd rape you and key your fucking car", nobody would say shit. In fact, he'd get thanks from the people who don't have the balls to say what they're thinking.

This community is just MMII, which is why I'm here, but the trade off we have with being able to be totally open is that we get a lot of immaturity and respect is a rare commodity. We're the 4chan of sports gaming.

That said, Ian comes here knowing that, so I guess to a certain extent it's his problem. But I'd really rather see this become a useful forum for passing on our thoughts and ideas rather than a place for people to vent and take out the frustrations on him.

 

[Poundtherock]

Ian, do you still have any embargos on gameplay that you can't answer?

EDIT: Mainly RE: WR Specific pump fake?

You do know the one man return was in Madden 09 right?

Did he not ask if the Squib KICK was in the game?
