NHL 10 Video: Broadcast View Gameplay - Caps @ Flyers

Re: NHL 10 Video: Broadcast View Gameplay - Caps @ Flyers

I never liked EA's broadcast view (love the game ) .A true NHL broadcast cam would be stationed at center ice on a pivot with a zoom in when players enter the offensive zone , once they cross the blue line. That would be amazing and it dosen't seem to hard to do. Their camera is on a horizontal track following the puck up and down the ice, not a true NHL broadcast.Oh well maybe sometime.

Yes, it is wrong on the final build but this should be something we can fix. Apparently the error was introduced with a late change, after the main verification pass on everything was done.

I wouldn't call it a broadcast view. More like a 'side camera.' Broadcast has a stationary position and swivels, rotates, zooms... whatever you call it. It doesn't pan side to side and have such a narrow scope.

Unimpressed with the broadcast camera, but the game looks good.

Well that is good to hear... I will be waiting to purchase the game until it is fixed however.

I just dont understand why so many people tout this game so highly.... I watched the video of the new broadcast cam and it does not look nearly as good or animate as well as 2k9s . Why do people continuosly buy these EA games? 2ks hockey game last year was the best broadcast cam representation of any hockey game ever made period. It looks and plays like REAL hockey.Too bad that not many people ever played it because of nhl09s ea hype machine.

A lot of people really enjoyed the game. It had flaws no doubt, some which appear to be addressed in NHL10. I'm sure there will still be areas that could be better, but that's a given -- everything can always be improved.

To be honest, most of us here have played many, many hockey titles from various publishers over the years and it really is getting tiring to read this stuff. I can't speak for everyone, but I think the majority of us don't care about the label on the box and want only a quality game, or even better, games to play.

If someone happens to prefer one game over the other, that's fine, but the need to convince others not of the merits of the preferred game, but the flaws of the other, confounds me.

And as far as football, baseball, basketball, etc, they have nothing to do with the topic at hand. I highly suggest that discussions are kept on topic and free of posts intended to derail conversation to undesirable subjects...

Why do people continuosly buy these EA games? Madden has been lackluster at best, since last gen, they make no baseball and when they did sega was far better, the ea basketball games are always well behind 2ks, and this hockey game is so overrated its rediculous. 2ks hockey game last year was the best broadcast cam representation of any hockey game ever made period.

I like how you are calling people out for not giving 2K a chance yet you are judging NHL 10 based on a video. Who knows what difficulty, setting and sliders were on during the game?

Anyways I don't know about everyone else but I felt NHL 2K9 was a huge step backwards; the controls were too complicated, the new features were gimmicks and the graphics were awful. I used to be a 2K guy, infact NHL 2K6 was one of my favourite games ever. The problems and glitches that were in that game are still present in NHL 2K9 and the gameplay isn't as authentic as 2K6.

NHL 10 plays fantastic based on the demo, it is very realistic, very fun and although the presentation needs to be upgraded the new features really enhance the game for die hard hockey fans. NHL 2K10 hasnt shown us enough and we haven't been able to play it yet, so obviously there is no hype for the game.

So, with the caps uniforms, is this something they can fix with a patch? Or is this something they will fix before release.

Hey Percy, please don't indulge those seeking to prolong the 2K/EA battle any longer. Things run a lot smoother around here when we avoid that crap. Thanks man...

I only play the game I like, I don't care who makes it. But if I like it; I will defend it!

Re: NHL 10 Video: Broadcast View Gameplay - Caps @ Flyers

I didnt make my comments based on the ea - 2k battle lol I play every single sports game that comes out. All I am saying is 2ks game last year "simulated" the sport of hockey better then ea's. People like the easy game play and slick player graphics and pick up and play mentality of the NHL series and thats all fine , as its the american way. 2ks biggest problem is the out of the box settings are terrible and do a poor job of trying to mimick eas out of the box spot on arcade fest settings. Anyway you look at it, sports games have progressed at a snails pace on these "next gen" platforms.
