One of the main areas of gameplay improvement for Madden NFL 17 has been identified by EA Sports as the new ball-carrier moves. The company has posted two examples of that already – besides what was seen in the cover announcement trailer – to better define what to expect starting with jukes and hurdles.
On the surface they don’t really look unlike those seen in past Madden games, but in comparing side-by-side differences can be spotted. Besides the poor running animations it’s worth noticing how both the juke and the hurdle are assisted by new defensive fakeout animations.
