    First Person Mode Discussion

    I've been playing mostly FP on all pro. Surprisingly I am doing o.k. with the passing, using the slow down quite a bit though. My running game could use some work. Any tips or pointers to make FP mode more succussfull overall? One other thing I did was to slow the game speed to slow. It helps. Its fun, 'cause its different I guess. I do get a bit dizzy though, from time to time.

    All I can say is I think that when you switch to FPM, it automatically switches to slow game speed itself. Didn't realize that til Sunday, but I guess it makes sense, because then I tried fast...

          I usually turn off auto-switching. On offense while playing QB, you MUST read the D to figure out your best plan of attack. for example, whenever I call a slant, I look at how the LB's are lining up. Then before the snap I decide who my primary, secondary and sometimes 3rd options will be. On the slants if I see the LB move into the slant line I know to go to my secondary. Things happen fast, but I am getting quite good at it. You should be able to figure out the other routes and the best plan of attack. As for running, if I see them stack the line of scrimmage, I usually audible out to pass plays, and vice-versa. On defense, I play middle LB as most always one of the backs will be my responsibility, unless I'm in zone. If you play LB and you get matched up with a WR, change players to a D-lineman or something. The CPU WILL try to exploit the matchups. Also, on D I usually hold down the "white" button to lock onto the player or zone/area I am responsible for until I can read what the play is all about. As you can see, I am liking the hell out of FPF!

                            AUTO SWITCHING! AUTO SWITCHING!

                            What's Auto switching?

                            I suck as QB in First Person. At least as Quincy Carter. I think i will be drafting a QB at the pace i am going.
