EA does a great job of ensuring the new fans to the sport dont have a hard time with the gameplay; Arena Football has an excellent tutorials mode for offence, defence and special teams. The tutorial mode also explains the rules of the game while teaching you the controls.Offence and defence controls are easy to master after practise. Gameplay is fun and fast.
Little things such as having your quarterback sit in the pocket hoping for a receiver to get open wont guarantee you success, but could see your quarterback being thrown by a defender. New features, such as taking control of your receiver before the snap and running your own routes and a new analog kicking control that one hopes will be installed in all of EA's future football games, highlight what should be the start of a successful franchise.
