Cutscreens being blocked!!!!
I hope Ian and the development team is still looking at these threads. One thing that is really killing me with the presentation is the blocking of the cutscreens with the play-calling screen. I'm really feeling what Ian had done, but this is like a eye-sore when it comes to the immersion. I dont know if its the users trying to rush threw or not, but i hope this can be fixed up or tweaked before release. Maybe Ian can have the playscreens wait until after the cutscreen is done or have it like 2k5 did with the action in the upper corner in a smaller screen, while the playscreens are picked. I love what the madden team has done, and i'm a 2k fan for life, i give him his props. Please fix this!!!!!!!!!!!Tags: None -
Re: Cutscreens being blocked!!!!
I'd prefer they just make the playcall screen come up after the cutscene is done, and if you want to speed up skipping and the scene and going straight to the playcall screen, you would just press 'A'. This in my view would be the best route to go.
Next year, I wanna see some custom options for stuff like this. It's not awful in its current state, but it sucks to see all that hard work they obviously put into this be obstructed even a little bit by a playcall screen that comes up too quickly during cutscenes. -

I usually hate it when people say "this" after quoting someone, but what the heck.

Well, if the game is following "real time", then the play clock starts when the previous play ends, or, at the start of the cutscene. Given that, then it only makes sense to have to playcall screen immediately pop up so we can start selecting our play.
I like it. It streamlines the experience for one, and it also just makes more sense, based on how the clock should technically be working. Besides, if it didn't do this, everyone would eventually be skipping all the scenes... this we, we still have to see them regardless.
Makes me think... Does an NFL head coach get pissed when his play book pops up in front of his face between plays and he has to miss the "cut scenes"?Comment

Re: Cutscreens being blocked!!!!
I agree 100%. You don't pay as much attention at the cutscene if half of the screen is blocked. Also, I noticed some of the cutscenes should last a bit longer. For example when the fans are seen entering the stadium, it barely lasts 2 seconds.Comment

Re: Cutscreens being blocked!!!!
This is 1 of my complaints along with the bad post play camera. Some of the presentation decisions really made me shake my head. EA needs to stop catering to these button mashers with tiny attention spans. Let us get immersed in the game if we want. Don't force us to play a stream lined game. It's been like that for far too long.http://twitter.com/sageinfinite

Re: Cutscreens being blocked!!!!
The only reason Madden is not like that right now, I would think, is because they have to cater to impatient folks. But, if you have a skip option that allows you to see the scene in its entirety without obstruction if you want, then this little nagging issue would be solved.

Everyone wouldn't skip them. Only the people who aren't interested. I know myself, I still watch practically everything in 2K5 and I've been playing that since 2004. It just depends on what you prefer.

Re: Cutscreens being blocked!!!!
This would really be the only real problem I have with this game from what I've seen so far, the aforementioned method above is definitely how it should be done. This way the button-mashers can skip them, and everyone else can enjoy them. The presentation is the selling point for me, I could honestly care less about online franchise, the quality of the presentation will be the deciding factor in if I buy this game come August.Comment

Re: Cutscreens being blocked!!!!
i think it bring both worlds together. people who dont want to see the cut scenes and the people who need to see them. just my opinion and i think it was a good idea to try this combination.
you dont know how somethin will turn out until u TRY. its called innovationComment

Re: Cutscreens being blocked!!!!
Nah I don't need to try it. It sucks for people like me who like to watch the cutscenes and get immersed in the game. Same reason I didn't like Madden 04. They even showed replays during the playcall screen. Delay of game penalties for no reason.http://twitter.com/sageinfinite

Re: Cutscreens being blocked!!!!
I think you guys are missing what's happening here. The way it seems to me, is that the cutscenes will play out without the play-call screen, but if you hit A or X respectively to hurry the process along, the play-call screen pops up on top of the cutscene. This is absolutely the best way to do it imo.Comment
