| Run blocking Improvements |
In their latest blog update, game designer Mike Scantlebury talks about the improvements in blocking AI in Madden NFL 11.
As we started planning out the changes to make to run blocking In Madden NFL 11, we just focused on creating the true run blocking schemes exactly as they are drawn up in real life. No reason to try and make a video-gamey version of it - it needed to be the real thing. It definitely took a lot of tuning to get the matchups right versus the many defensive fronts in football, but we have done it. |
| While the vast majority of people agree that Madden NFL 10 was a huge leap forward for the Madden series on the next-generation consoles, issues with the blocking AI still remained. It's good to see that EA have addressed these for '11. Only time will tell if they turn out to be as big of an improvement "as advertised" but the signs are good. |
