Best camera view??

[BlingBling19]

Just wondering if anybody has tweaked with this yet and found a good one yet. The default ones just seem to far away and I found a good one for fifa 10 but I don't remember what it was.

I am looking for something along the lines of playing like I was watching a game on TV.

I prefer the Dynamic cam, zoomed all the way out and the camera tilt all the way down (or close to it).

In my opinion this view really shows off FIFA’s graphics and nuances.

I feel more connected to the immediate action in this way (the man on the ball), but one does sacrifice being able to see the whole field. The radar helps, but not a lot. I find myself using less of the field, only occasionally knocking the ball up the field or any pass of any length.

I think there's a lot of bad camera angles and you just can't see the whole field. On the other hand, if you are far away, like you said, you just don't see the player that well.

I use CO-OP because I can see all of the field that way. It's the only one that let's me see what the teammates are doing. It's also helped in me creating office because I can visualize a play a one or two passes before.

I wish they had an camera angle where it was always behind the offense either going up or down.

I am gonna give these a try. I did try dynamic and thought it was an improvement. Perhaps adding in your suggested tweaks it will be better.

Ya that is one thing about this years game I think is off. I wish the AI teammates would actually try and get open for you so you could make a pass. It just seems they stand around to much and it's terribly hard to create something unless it is all done by you.

I mean I find more and more not enough players forward and when they are forward I usually have a ST end up with the ball in the corner or on the sidelines and not a winger. Perhaps I am doing something wrong in the buildup.

Also on the higher levels I noticed you get almost no time on the ball. It seems like everyone gets all bunched together and you have no room to do anything lol.

Supposedly there is a button you can press to get your teammates to make a run. I don't remember what it is (At work atm) but I tried it a couple times and I didn't notice anything.

It's L1 but you must have possession and point the LS in the direction of the guy you want to make the run. It could use some improvement.

Yep, I remember that now. I didn't know you had to use the LS though.

Re: Best camera view??

Broadcast is the best for me, zoomed in all the way height all the way down (no height).

Re: Best camera view??

Ya my biggest thing though is with how quickly the AI reacts you have almost no chance to have guys make runs when you really need them to.

It's just annoying when you see the CPU team able to move there guys around and get open and then your players just seem to stand around and wait for something to happen. I really thought "target" players were supposed to be the ones getting open to receive passes and what not.

I'll try the broadcast view like you said.

Re: Best camera view??

I haven't really found any good camera that gives me everything. There are none that allow you to see the entire field and the more field you see, the further away you feel from the action because you usually have to zoom all the way out. I'm currently trying out the pro camera zoomed out about 75%. I can at least see upfield to try some lofted through passes or lobs. But it's not very good for making quick lobs to switch play to the other side of the field and sometimes the camera gets in a corner and gives you bad angles.

I'm constantly trying new cameras though and maybe I'll find one I like some day.

That's easy broadcast view. That is the realistic TV style. I am different though as I like it zoomed all the way out, lowered all the way down. For some people it is difficult to see the other side (so just zoom in) but it doesn't bother me.

I tried that but you just seem so far away from the action and you can barely see who the players are.

One of the greatest things about this game is the level of detail so I was hoping to find a view that not only allowed a majority of the field to be seen but also allow for the player models to have the high detail quality.

Re: Best camera view??

I use tele as it shows a bit more of the field than broadcast. But I have a question...

Are the skill moves relative the the player? In other words, up = direction player is facing? Being able to pull off some skill moves would really help me get more shots off.

I wish they would let us change the view for practice.

This for sure, after years of playing on Tele I cant believe how much I was missing out on.
Somebody on here suggested this camera and I tried it out and love it, so thanks whomever it was!

You can change the camera for practice view. When you hit 'select' on the arena screen, it gives you 4 or 5 practice options - camera view being one of them.
