Request to EA (Ian)...get rid of the "glow" around the players for '10

[SmashMan]

Too many "Hey Ian" posts clutter up the boards. There's obviously no discussion here. Like Sage just said, what's Ian (or anyone) going to say about player glow?

You give people an inch, they take a mile. Ian put himself out here for all kinds of feedback, the rest of the board didn't.

Some of the threads that specifically name Ian are actually viable posts that can spur worthwhile discussion and debate. 95% of the posts are not though. Use common sense people, post it in the wishlist forum (that Ian visits) or send it in a PM. Just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he doesn't read.

Dont take it out on Sage. There are TOO MANY of these "hey Ian", "to Ian", "Ian I want your kids" threads. I tried, I tried to post in all the "Ian" threads to let people know, just send a PM. But there is just too many of them now, and nobody listens.

So I just stopped clicking/posting on/in them. But I come here, and guess what? Few people sayin to send him a PM. Guess who? Sage, and you already know Cusefan.

So just, just, please send a PM.

Different sport I know,but if you can simulate light like MLB the Show does, it will help out the visual realism tremendously. also, you need to add the "little things" that MLB 09 and NBA2k9 do as well. Little subtle nuances of player animations that add to the enjoyment. Ex: in NBA 2k9 LeBron James chews his finger nails while waiting for player to shoot his free throws instead of just standing there. Just a subtle touch that is perfect. Some things for football: - adjusting shoulder pads or facemask - replacing or picking up a mouthpiece off the ground - player adjusting his gloves before the snap - QB wiping his hands on a towel as he walks up to the center - butt slap animations (I know that sounds funny, but you see it all the time in sports) (See Brett Favre) - trash talk... heck even NFL 95 had it. (if you've played that game you know what I'm talking about) Now, I know "gameplay" has it's needs, but that is too long and for another thread.

when a user makes a thread like this.....there is a COMPLETE DISRESPECT for his fellow members---acting as if no one else has noticed this for past 7 months.


i sent a PM to mike young on this very topic back in December...to which he replied...

"For the second point it is a rim light (when done well is a great addition) which we are working to improve for 2010.

Thanks,

Mike Y"

1. There isn't a rule that states "no hey [insert devs name]" threads...it's all your matter of opinion (your opinion)...
a) which has no place in this thread because it's not related to the thread;
b) who cares if a TITLE has "hey ian" in it??!?! seriously who cares about the title of a thread, as long as it's related to the content of the forum/thread??? it's pedantic beyond words.
c) Ian is old and smart enough to know he doesn't have to respond to a thread even if it says "hey ian" in the title...and he doesn't most of the time unless the content is something he wants to respond too.... that's not for you guys to decide.

2. If sage has been on here for sooooo long, he should know better than to tell somebody to f*** off and then have another ridiculous argument with another user.

3. This teaming up because you all don't like repetition is fair enough but that can be labelled at every thread created and until no "hey ian" threads make it into the new forum rules... none of you have a leg to stand on...

This shouldn't even be an argument... because the op didn't break any rules.... the issue is a matter of opinion... an opinion on a subject that isn't important.
