Madden NFL 13 to focus on defensive improvements - ChunLie - 02-22-2012
According to Electronic Arts' Chief Creative Officer Richard Hilleman, Tiburon's new team is focusing primarily on defensive improvements for Madden NFL 13.
Hilleman, who's worked closely with the Madden series for decades, told GameInformer at DICE that despite new leadership and changes, improvements in the upcoming game will benefit everyone.
Hilleman didn't dicuss just what these improvements are, but the fact that they're focusing on them is greatly appreciated. The defensive side of the ball hasn't seen an impacting improvement since Madden NFL 05's "hit-stick." The biggest issue with defense in Madden NFL 12 was the lack of knowledge in the secondary. Defenders would easily lose track of their receivers, making long-balls easy to come by.
Some, though, are worried; not only because of these gameplay changes, but with the entire shift in management at Tiburon. Fear not, as Hilleman says the game is in good hands.
