Figured I'd make an official thread. I'll give it a chance.
Features:
Frostbite Engine: The trailer gives a first real look at the franchise's first foray into the Frostbite engine, EA's exclusive graphics engine used for previous FIFA and Madden NFL games. The move allows for improved graphics, improved lighting and improved objects to create a more realistic, lively looking scenario. The Frostbite engine will be available on all versions of the game, regardless of system generation.
Superstar X-Factors: When it comes to some of the best players in the game, these abilities will help the best players shine through in ways other players can't. It's broken down into two categories: zone abilities and superstar abilities. Zone abilities help make star players better, while superstar abilities are extra power-ups for the best of the best. These will be evident in modes such as franchise, Be a Pro, HUT and the World of Chel.
Augmented Reality Broadcast: While in a game, new AR graphics will appear to offer information and stats through environmental surfaces.
New stick physics: An issue in previous games was poke checking becoming too powerful, resulting in a multitude of tripping penalties. The gameplay trailer showcased what appears to be improved stick physics, with EA saying that the new interactions should prevent sticks from poking through the boards and allow for more accurate penalty calls.
New facial graphics: The trailer also showcased more realistic player facial expressions. In previous games, players either looked zoned out or reacted incorrectly to the play at hand. In the trailer, it appears as though the players react a bit more realistically to situations.
