[@RichardRitenour0522]

It's in it's early stages but it looks great! A year from now it will be a nearly fleshed out game and be a real competitor, it will be an interesting ride! Thanks C!

[@ImNotSpecialGaming]

I definitely enjoyed my experience with it, this is just a Beta so it only gets better, I haven't played it enough to really distinguish it's physics based tackling compared to Madden but you can definitely see more defenders bouncing I feel 😊

[@C-WEYZEY]

I played the game for over 2 hours and not once was I bummed out about anything! I feel really good about Maximum Football, it has some promising things going for it. Presentation is a big one for me, there are of course things they need to work on. But overall not bad, and it will be Free to Play. So much to dive into with this. My Thoughts and 1st impressions video coming soon!!!

[@ImNotSpecialGaming]

@@C-WEYZEY That is absolutely awesome to hear, The presentation thing is absolutely huge, did you have commentary in your game at all or was that actually absent in your playthroughs as well? I'm playing on PC and definitely notice a couple of bugs especially with receivers catching the ball but as you said definitely tons of fun and no complaints and it's free which blows my mind and also worries me about what kind of microtransactions there might be 😅 Can't wait will definitely check it out!

[@C-WEYZEY]

No Commentary team but there was a Stadium Announcer. It actually didn’t bother me being like this what so ever surprisingly… I am usually one that cares for good commentary!!!

[@ImNotSpecialGaming]

@@C-WEYZEY I wasn't sure if I missed them or not lol Yes the old Maddens had great commentary growing up!

[@allandalesizemoreandthelos4016]

Just a couple critiques and questions (I haven’t been able to play yet because my Windows crashed) 1. Lack of gang tackling 2. Everyone goes down like they were shot on a tackle, no fighting for extra yards 3. QB contain is non existent 4. I hope there will be a challenge option because that wasn’t a TD on that Grey run 😅 5. Everyone running like a board is up their butt (not a biggie really) 6. From watching a few reviews, I hope there is controller Mapping 7. Lack of different tackles (spinning someone down, no tackle from behind really?) I know it’s Beta so I’m sure this is bare bones gameplay really and there is a lot of good. Presentation is great. Love the kicking meter Ball physics seem good Loved how the players tracked ball in air with their head Still hate the overlay coming up CONSTANTLY graphics are really good I’m just hoping to get something on par with Madden/NCAA 11! Which I still Play today! I’m excited to see how the college/pros work together on this! And I’m sure they will be constantly adding with updates etc. I can’t wait for consoles. Good start I think.

[@allandalesizemoreandthelos4016]

Oh and is there an individual box sheet stats? I see the team stats.

[@C-WEYZEY]

I personally haven’t seen the individual player stats/sheets yet. I have seen a couple of gang tackles in my over 2.5 hours playing the game so far! I have seen 1 tackle from behind animation played out on 2 separate occasions. Not sure on the controller mapping but due to it being the Beta we probably won’t know or see that feature until the game fully releases.

[@GuerrillaGrom]

Ball physics is one of my main issues👀

[@WakethBaketh]

Been waiting for this! Props on the upload!

[@ATLsF1N3ST91]

It'll get there. A few games away from something really fun.

[@ADIDAZZ555]

Real advertising finally “yes the adidas logo “

[@lamargriffith197]

I like this even in the early stages

[@ty-bien]

Looks good for the early stage of the game. One thing I did notice is the tackling. The animations are the same every time. Even if you miss a tackle

[@C-WEYZEY]

There are a decent variety in the tackle animations. I’ve played the Beta for 6 hours and have seen quite a few nice animations. But for some reason they rarely show up.

[@ty-bien]

@@C-WEYZEY that’s good to hear! It’s still early, so that probably an easy fix

[@SCSAsJorts]

Got to play it a bit before having to head out and honestly I’m excited for this, it actually exceed expectations in certain areas presentation is solid just from seeing players actually warm up, pitch and catch, the players on the side lines don’t look like this claymation figures, even the details of the turf beads kicking up or the Tee from kick off actually moving and not staying in one spot. Speed/acceleration matter but not only that angles, running the ball can be tricky and have its stiff moments but just needs some tweaking The tackling/shredding tackles was a nice refresh feeling, not once did I see or feel myself or another player get into suction to make a play. The bumps and collision felt as natural as you could get. Would like to see a bit more flow for making line adjustments before the snap of the ball. But overall for a beta solid 7. Can’t wait for the full release

[@C-WEYZEY]

Good points! In the stage that the game is in right now, it does look promising…

[@phoenixb3690]

Yeah the game looks like it has a solid chance at becoming a very well made game. I would love to see them upgrade the ai on the defense, because they seemed to be VERY weak compared to offensive ai, which has lead to a huge amount of questionable plays where the defense should've made a play. If they're able to make both sides of the field play hard against each other, it will be a solid game honestly.

[@C-WEYZEY]

The defense is good at times I’ve noticed during my 2.5+ of gameplay… Overall I like what I see, but there is still work to be done for sure!!! ✅ 👍

[@SelahKngdm]

Looks lovely!! Can’t wait for the release.

[@brettk9316]

Passing is pretty fun. Running needs work and playing D isn't hard just feeling like player you select on D no matter what position doesn't make much of an impact.

[@C-WEYZEY]

I’ve made a few user plays on defense. Idk if the run game needs work, maybe we just need to adjust to it. I found it difficult at times to run yes. But there was a few runs I managed to break off because I found a Very tight gap in the offensive line. Gonna continue to play the Beta to get a better understanding of it all

[@reiserkeiser]

This game has come a helluva long ways. For real

[@ItsJakeWilk]

Thanks to ncaa football not coming to pc, I will definitely be playing this a lot! Game looks great. Hopefully you can create your own team and play people online

[@usafblufalcon5000]

Finally!! A legitimate competitor to EA!!!

[@youngtrill9745]

No way you believe that 😂😂

[@C-WEYZEY]

I think this will be a good alternative for people that hate/despise EA for sure! Considering it will be free to play too… 🔥

[@sirsquirtsprinkles580]

It doesn't look good, mechanics look terrible,

[@garyboi6255]

This mf looks good

[@C-WEYZEY]

The graphics do look good!!! 👀

[@jatarvisharris399]

Saw some things I really liked and some stuff I don’t but overall I think it’s gunna be solid. I don’t think it’s coming to consoles this year and this will hurt the game if CFB is as good as it looks. But overall I like the direction of the game. My biggest issue is the defense constantly losing containment/not having an edge setter.

[@jonquis07]

Looks pretty good. The movement/running is a little weird but otherwise looks great.

[@ashokdas9228]

Say what you want but the gameplay looks better the Madden in a lot of ways!!! Can't wait for the final version!

[@legendviii9114]

No tf it does not 😂

[@ronnieleejr9851]

I think the run game needs some more ball carrier moves and this game will be just fine. It looks great

[@XiXlovejoy]

I have a question. It is a full sand box game. So my question is can we have Ai vs Ai and simply watch the game. Because i am looking at making my own custom season and enjoy with a beer while watching.

[@C-WEYZEY]

Yes you can watch the CPU play the CPU!!!

[@krisshirley7508]

my biggest complaint is the replay after every single play there's way to many breaks in the gameplay. also we need a supersim feature to be able to skip defense or offense.

[@jaybyrd1374]

Im not going to lie playing the beta this game has so much potential if you played all of their past titles I was not bored! Good job making this game playable 🎉🎉 Watching it doesn’t give it justice you have to play it The graphics and on field mechanics are the biggest improvements Replays cutscenes post game stats etc The UI is great ( my opinion) And It seems like you can customize your controls big plus 💪🏾 from the options menu -I had no issue navigating through the routes or play-call screen its simple The scoreboard looks good in my opinion But it looks better when playing the game Pre snap menu and defensive adjustments are good On field arts looks better than EA not gone lie 🤔 Scoring a touchdown transition is solid -You can celebrate they have the griddy and a cool backflip ( my go to celebrations) The movement is fair the kickoffs are weird definitely need a better kicker animation -Kickers just walk to the ball to kick 😅 Running is stiff but is not a big problem with a player who has speed -different run animations are needed -you can cut and juke decently (stick skills do matter) -the stiff arm and spin is cool you can avoid defenders If you know how to run the ball handoffs and reading the holes is an issue Drop backs need work Throwing is good not unfair you can place it well The d-line play is actually pretty good the swim and spin are responsive the catching is good for this game With a more physic base approach it could be better tackling wise the quick hits need to be ironed out for smoother transition More animations could be used 🤷🏾‍♂️ in the tackling department Coverage is ok In air adjustments decent hold Y to catch press Y to deflect Strafe is actually good 👀 Defense you need to be ready or you will get beat easy But its not impossible tackle tracking seems tuned up But overall I came in with no expectations and I was surprised this game could be a solid play and build a bigger fan base in 2 years from this build Lets go maximum football!

[@RobertOBrien-m1b]

No left handed qbs or kickers. Unbelievable for a graphics based game!

[@Traverz72188]

Ok, this looks like a really good base to build off of. Pretty excited to see what this leads to! Does EA FINALLY have a competitor? Probably for a bit, until EA buys them.

[@peteyp103]

😂😂😂😂and the MONOPOLY CONTINUES

[@40calmob82]

Looks pretty good. Add commentary and it will be a huge step. Some dull moments but I can play this

[@C-WEYZEY]

They are working on commentary as we speak and are hoping/planning on having it game at launch! If not then shortly there after…

[@jeremiahgreen3461]

I can't wait to see where they go with this. I still think there's a market for a non EA football game and I hope they improve to fill that niche.

[@C-WEYZEY]

I think they will

[@apolloniusTheDragon]

Love that slow mo INT 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@bigbrojr.4462]

On the kickoff the second tackler went into his animation and didn't even touch the guy!! 😂

[@apolloniusTheDragon]

I know it’s a work in progress but I’d love to see the offense break a huddle instead of just popping into position

[@bigbrojr.4462]

Graphics look super awesome okay first negative of this comment is on the kickoff. the kicker didn't have no kind of follow through to his Kick 😂 He just stood there like His kicking power 200! But the graphics do look great this is one comment of a thousand. Lol!

[@JKB12344]

It looks great the only thing about the game they need to fix is when the running back ran through like 6 people at the dame time

[@C-WEYZEY]

😂😂😂

[@skandalmkdaniel3029]

First contact is always a tackle. Needs work. But looks okay. That's about it.

[@C-WEYZEY]

With my time playing I have seen quite a few broken tackles. If I had to put a ratio on it, it’s probably 2/10 contact interactions that have broken tackles.

[@Lukemasonmedia]

This game with mods to have real teams/stadiums 👌🏼👌🏼 don’t even have to play it to know it will be better than Madden easily

[@C-WEYZEY]

Probably won’t even need Mods to be honest. The amount of customization built into the game itself is staggering!!!

[@10k_q30]

I need this to be great so madden can have competition and step their game up because their too comfortable with being mediocre

[@skandalmkdaniel3029]

[@bigbrojr.4462]

Okay I recognize something else I like the fact that they have a stadium announcer. But you have to let his words and sentences make sense!! The runner is getting a first down clearly, the stadium announcer will say first down and then he was says stopped short by the defender.. 😂 I catch everything 😂
