I got 25% for both the HB and the DBs. I love this mode and I love the camera angle.

Sim it is not, fun it is in spades!

I am addicted to this game type. It's most fun 3 on 3. Once I got on and found good team mates [surprisingly it didn't take that long,] we got into an XBL party to stay together and we communicate all the time. I am the QB and often the D-Line. this allows someone else to be the LB and call the defensive plays. I am better at defense overall, but allowing someone else to make calls gets them involved. That, and call it selfish, but I don't like how others call plays on offense and play QB. I like to be both fair and sim by spread the ball around, calling a mix of run and pass plays, and I tend to have a leadership personality anyway. I haven't lost an OTP game yet, though there have been two close games, one we came back in at the end.

i think its a great feature. i loved it for NHL 10, it's a lot of fun.....communication is key.

i wish the defensive camera angle used for OTP was an option for normal games

Oh yeah, and we tend to start 8 min games [you have to play 7min games to get boosts] on all-madden when we invite people. I could care less about the boosts or recording your wins and losses. I think that since this is an unranked game mode, people are less likely to cheese, and when they do, your team can quit and look for people who don't want to abuse the AI.

one thing that is annoying, and this isn't OTP's fault is how many teams choose to wear home colors as the away team. It's pet peeve of mine, but it tends to ruin immersion and you don't know they did it until the game starts. We had a game as the Patriots and we played the Cowboys who wore their Blues. Go into practice mode to see how confusing that would look. Add in the far far away camera and that your opponents controlled players circles are not on screen, it's hard to tell who was who. in the end I think that hurt them more as they threw 4 picks. Oh well, the joke is on them.

I wish there was an option to change the camera.

You guys are making me want to play this mode. This may be the way to have fun with M11 until they fix the quitters not getting a loss in ranked games.
I'm going to jump in and try to team up with random people.

This is by far my favorite mode........

At first I didn't like the Defensive cam, but now i love it, it actually makes you feel like a defensive player!!!!
