Ideas for Madden 25 Spectator Mode

Posted on May 15, 2014 at 03:26 AM.

Before I get into this, I'd like to say that this just came to me so if it looks as if I'm all over the place with my ideas, it's because I am.

If you've read the title then you know that I think there should be a Spectator Mode for Madden 15. This idea came to me while I was watching the Heat vs Nets tonight and I saw a play and rewound it. It got me to thinking. When I've finished a season in Madden 25 CC if I were knocked out the playoffs a little too soon, my next move was "advance to next week" and that's it. But what if i wanted to watch the super bowl? I couldn't and that's it. But for next years installment, what if they put a Spectator Mode in the game that allowed us to watch any of the games?

Where would it be? I think it could be in the main modes under the "play" tab. That includes CC, Ultimate Team, and regular offline play (for those of us that don't mind watching CPU on CPU crime), and Head to Head online.

What features would it use?
I believe it should be just like a game on TV. So basically I shouldn't have to go into the pause menu to see a replay. I should be able to hold down whatever the dvd/bluray rewind button is if I wanted to see the previous play/drive. I should also be able to control the camera angles (that goes for replays and the actual game). I personally don't really care about sharing, but if I wanted to all I'd have to do is save a drive or a play and voil�. The time cap on a single game should be the length of the game.

It would be so cool if you're watching two people play head to head and you pause the what now is a "live" video (or what i think should be 3-5 minutes behind) to see how many times this person has targeted (which better be a stat that gets fixed) Megatron. You come out of the pause menu the game has went on but the score has changed you hold down R1/RB or R2/RT the game rewinds to where you paused it or further. You watch the TD play then fast forward back to "live" game play. I'm sure it's super late for the devs to try add a feature like this into the game, but hey like all 31 teams not named The Seattle Seahawks said "There's always next year."

Let me know what you think....
