    They didnt do any actual facial capture or real renderings due to the logistics of trying to do it for thousands of people. Im not too broken up about the player models, they look good on the field.

    Another thing I've noticed is that there isn't a single shot in any review trailer that has shadows from an upper deck stretching over a sideline. Every shadow in every stadium comes from behind an endzone, including DKR. They had that in multiple versions prior to 2014. Wonder if it'll be fixed. 

  2. The Texas OU game seems to have an array of oversight. A very EA thing to do would be to take something they got barely right in 2013 and get it completely wrong in 2024.

    I thought the gameplay and lighting looked good.

    Some of the player models are odd. They have Travis Hunter looking like he has Sergio Kindle's physique. If they didn't render that guy accurately then there shouldn't be much optimism for literally anyone else. It still sounds like they haven't rounded all the edges yet. But overall it looks fun. 

  3. Passing meter thing sounds like something that will suck at first until you get used to it. 

    I don't really know what "30% faster than Madden gameplay" means, but it sounds almost chaotic. And it doesn't make much sense considering the main thing you hear about the most difficult aspect of acclimating from college to the NFL is game speed.

    I have seen a taser deployment there. The bartender was utterly unmoved and said that it happens so often that it's not exciting or noteworthy to him any longer. 

    Tensions run so high in the airport now for obvious reasons. But even when we have to go through tsa I just default into cattle mode and endure it. It sucks and can be frustrating but it's not that bad. People just go on full tilt. It's wild. 

    We saw a couple in San Antonio go into a full volume rage argument. The gate told them they weren't flying. Full rage round two. Then cops arrive. Rage even harder. They rounded the corner and I heard the crack of the taser and the wailing. I couldn't tell if it was the guy or the girl.

    When you have time to kill at the airport, skip the lounge and find out bar nearest to the Spirit gates. 

    The Spirit-adjacent bar at MSY is one of my favorite places, and I don't even drink anymore. 

    A loud argument between two people in pajamas is a given. But on a prime day you can see a full meltdown with destruction of commercial property or maybe even a taser deployment.

    Bolden will be cooking DBs, and I can't wait to see it. The kid's commitment to getting to work will show up immediately, and he's a mismatch. He'll be housing it for at least 5-8 TD's this season. 

    This single game is a great display of what his homerun ability will provide. He's better than X at using hands to fend off jersey tugs and wrist pulls on contested balls. And holy shit at 1:44.
