To cone, or not to cone?

I'm 3 games into my franchise, and I'm debating on whether or not to leave the vision cone in place once the regular season comes around. I was sacked 9 times in my 3rd preseason game, and had about 100 yards passing, and about 30 net yards after sacks.. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I just can't get a grip on this "vision cone" thing. I'm not sure that it makes it a better game. I get the whole, "realism" argument, but I'm not sure if it's worth it to be more "real" but less fun.

What will you do? Leave the cone on, or turn it off?

Re: To cone, or not to cone?

Definitely leave it on. Give it about 5-10 games and you'll get used to it. Now that I have, I can never go back to normal. I always make sure I know where my first and second options are...if I have enough time I'll check the third and so on. I love being able to place the ball inside, high, or low. Feels great when you make that perfect pass. Plus, If I'm being rushed and throw a poor pass, Im going to get penalized for it.....I love the cone!

Put on a lower difficulty to get adjusted to the cone

Re: To cone, or not to cone?

1. We have been looking at those IGN links for a month.
2. Even if they were new, we wouldn't need to know about it in every freakin thread.

Rickster:

I appreciate you posting those links. That's the first I've seen them, as I avoid IGN like herpes and haven't dove into the Madden threads until I bought the game this week. Both links are a VERY RARE good piece of information from IGN.

Thanks, man.

Take care,
PK
