Running Animation looks Anime ?

[QuadaMillion]

I dont know how im the only one to say this so far but the new running sprinting animation you guys recently added does not look very good and does not look realistic in the slightest. It looks like an anime character?? Nobody can physically lean that far forward while running its almost comical, i think it needs adjusted and not every player should do this animation every play. Every time I snap the ball all my WR starting running their routes in this animation and it looks AWFUL they look like an anime character or something. In my opinion the animation was not human like and not that great to begin with and it seems you used that animation over and over and its already taken over the game and the whole game looks bad now. I would love to see it adjusted and maybe the occurrence that it happens dialed way back. Make a few more similar and mix them in so when the play starts it doesnt look like everybody is repeating the same weird looking animation. Their own heads dont even know where to go half the time and their body is running sideways. The new animation does help with locomotion in a sense that a pass catcher activates this running animation right after the catch, forcing them to move forward more quickly and not get sucked into a tackle animation from behind. So I think this was going in the right direction but needs adjusted

They should bring it back to the other one

I don't know about bring back to the other one. But it still needs work. I would say the transitions between animations in particular are a bit abrupt. And it feels like they just snap into the run insanely fast at times. I feel like it is an improvement overall but still needs a lot of work ironing out all the kinks it has.

That's what I reacted to as well, felt very on/off, once they get going they don't look too bad, might lean forward a bit too much, but the lack of transition is very apparent.

Yes, it does feel a bit off at the moment, but i think I see where they are trying to go. Looks like they want to differentiate between a runner charging through the hole, and a runner in open field, which is good, but still needs tweaking. What I feel is more jarring is the fact that everyone on the field appears to be doing the same sort of sprint, which is not what should be happening.
