EA Its in The Details

[jcar0725]

I love this game actually but I'll tell you what drives me nuts:

1) the constant showing of the coach on the sidelines. Nobody likes this ever. Nobody wants it in PLEASE take it out.

2) the fact that the game doesn't use the names of players you drafted. yeah sometimes you'll hear the drafted QB's last name but mostly, you never hear them actually mention any of the drafted players names at all.

I can’t stand when I get an interception the wacky player motion that follows. No fluidity so I never seem to get the proper yards after pick or ability to set up blocks for my Ed Reed pick six!

1) I definitely agree with this, it's overkill for sure.

2) I mean it would be nice, but I think this would be impossible to do 100% especially with custom draft classes. I mean they would have record thousands of possible names and still not get everyone. I would rather have them spend that time on more in depth commentary personally.

This has gotten cleaned up a bit through patches. It's also pretty important to let the camera do it's thing and not try and control the defender until that's complete. Don't ask me why; that's just my experience on INT returns.

1. Agreed.. not sure who thought that was a good idea? The players on the sidelines look horrible too so just show the players going back into the huddle.

2. Also agree, I can understand custom drafts, but I use game generated and those names should be mentioned. I hear a player's name on a sack, then my drafted MLB sacks the QB and it's dead silence.

3. LOVE the player introductions, but those should happen right after the first and second plays.. sometimes it's on the 2nd possession on each team for off/def.

Just little nit picky stuff that would add to the game...

Not for custom classes I guess not, but other sports games do it for the generic draft classes and it's totally immersing.

Yeah, I mean I think EA goes 25 - 35 yrs for CFM. So they should know all the players names in random drafts.

What annoys me the most about the cut scenes are how long they are and how difficult and slow it is trying to fast forward passed them.
