Sorry I wasn't talking about you man. Just the pictures. I loved how Favre held the ball. Like Marino. With one hand. Wish it was in madden.

I actually think the 2nd one is better

With that said Im hoping that the devs could adjust the screen ;presnap as shown in the images below. [Image 1.]My favorite [Image 2] After the ball is snapped transition the camera view during passing plays so we could see the wideouts " Accordially".As shown below [During passing plays] "TRANSITION OUT" This here alone will show off the graphics ,give you that immersion factor that we zoom fans crave,while sizing the defensive personnel match ups presnap ;in regards of who to take advantage of, or whom to steer clear away from/opposing threat.

You can move the entire screen down and that would give you less grass area. I'd rather see more stadium and sky(at least a super bowl good year blimp,etc,lol) then all that grass behind the qb. IMO moving the players to mid screen looks silly.

Here is a quick example:
current screen

moved up slightly scree(everything not perfect here, just a example)

showing more sky would give you the option of lightning in the far, added rain effects, sun, good year blimp, and other things which IMO is better then 20 yards of grass behind the qb

Also, IMO EA needs to loose the banner staying on all the time. It is too much in the way of graphics and realism during gameplay. Should be a box in a corner and it doesn't need to stay up all the time. Also replace EA logo with a NFL logo. All that info can be seen in the play select screen too. They could put the banner info on the scoreboards for added effect. Might be hard to read, but would add effect to the board.


Also, with so much grass showing one has to ask the following question:

This image with the BIlls is beautiful. I love this camera angle. Exactly what I'm looking for when I hear the words Zoomed Camera angle.

Love that angle. Not a great angle for pass plays though. Would probably be best for pre-play and run plays.

I agree. To me, that is football right there. EA needs to look into cam options that would allow a closer cam to be used, but also allow the sidelines to be viewed with camera tilt or something. If they use the cam tilt feature, the qb has to be the center point of the tilt. So the qb doesnt move in any way just the camera swivels around him. This could be hard to do. Kind of like a first person shooter cam for the qb (only not zoomed in to 1rst person view). Don't really know how all that is done, and if it could even work, but it would be really cool.

I don't like the offset angle though. I like everything kept lined up center during gameplay
