Re: Madden NFL 10 Dev Diary Video: Everything You See On Sunday

I'm a little lost on the broadcast camera... are you guys coach mode or CPU vs. CPU watchers? I can't imagine trying to play that way. That'd be terrible.

Hell, I can't imagine coach mode from that angle. How do you know what defenses your facing? And if you don't know what defenses you're facing, are you 'coaching', or calling random offensive plays and letting the CPU play it out? If so, what's the point?

The only place I want a broadcast cam is for the walk to the line and replays.

Yeah exactly. I've heard some people say that they would like to play the game in that view and I'm like... "wow... really?"

Man, I just don't know what to think of Madden 10 sometimes. Sometimes I get very concerned with certain features that are still lacking and bumming me out, and then sometimes I see some pretty fantastic improvements that make me want to buy it.

There are alot of us on here that play that angle. We are the movement. We are the way. Step into the light.

But seriously, its the only way I can play. It is very easy and adds so much to the game. The reasons and why's have been explained many a time. Don't want to turn this into another broadcast camera thread. But my question to you...how can you play football vertically? Feels completely unrealistic.

Uh, for the most part, NFL players see the field vertically - quarterbacks more so.

I don't know anyone who plays with the broadcast camera. You guys are honestly the first people I've seen who do. The directions are just not intuitive for 99% of Madden players. So I completely understand why Ian didn't exactly prioritize it.

Honestly...bet the majority, if they played that way for 2 days, learned routes and actually got timing down, would never go back to playing vertically. Running is great in broadcast view.

All of the above. The broadcast angle is just a different way to immerse into the franchise aspect of the game. It's cool if you can't dig it, but what's not cool, is that this was an aspect of video game football that we were given for a long time, to become quite acquainted with, and it was EA SPORTS who took that away from us. So I'm sure you can understand why someone like me would have some frustration about that, since this is my only option if I want video game football.

But the post was more for Ian, becasue now he's making videos, pumping this stuff up - broadcast this, broadcast that - ain't a damn thing broadcast if it don't have broadcast angle. They watched hours and hours of football and never once did someone say, "gee, we should have a broadcast angle - (like the one everybody had four/five years ago)?"

It's just strange to me that a feature so, seemingly, effortlessly implemented for so long is now mysteriously a problem. I just don't get it, and it sucks for me because it's something I got used to and can't have anymore.

I'll lick my wounds.

Again, it is in the game, it's just that the user won't be able to pick it since there's still bugs with it.

People are complaining about not be able to choose it now, and I'm pretty sure that people would still be complaining (maybe even more) if they let the user pick the camera angle even though there is bugs in it.

That is some pretty sweet presentation going on for Madden 10.

This is the best video shown so far, even though it's just lil clips of gameplay here and there.

What's the point of it being in the game if it doesn't work?

Also yeah all them cut-scenes look good but the running animations still need work, & A LOT....

Good job Ea. Good job my friends

You guys are confused. There are bugs that are preventing you from being able to use the broadcast cam now, but Ian will fix it through a patch and you'll be able to use it then.
