1. The Camera view on defense immerses you in the game yes, but when a pass is made you can not see behind you which makes it hard to stop the CPU on passing downs. What needs to happen is that when the ball is hiked the camera should pan out enough to where both human players can see the field to switch accordingly in the secondary. Along these same lines is the camera does not rotate when you kick the ball off on special teams which basically inverts your running and is a little qwerky. Also the play call screen for the second player is huge when the first player calls a play it blocks the view of the playing field temporarily. I think the 2nd player only needs a small like Pip play call screen at the top right corner of the screen.
2. Let's say for instance I set up the match and send the invite to my friend, if I am the one to set up the match I can only play QB, whereas on defense I'm free to play with who ever I wish to play with. Me and my friend experimented with this yesterday when we wanted to alternate qb only to figure out that the game does not assign the CPU to hike the ball and play QB if me and my friend decide to play other positions like RB or WR's. This has to be fixed, because are positions are interchangeable on defense and special teams they also should be on offense.
3. The third and final thing that needs to be fixed with this great mode of CO-OP which I thank EA greatly for is. I think that this mode needs to allow up to 4 players or more to either play against the CPU or one another, because 2 players against the CPU is fun, but my friends and I love to play competitive matches against each other and you can't do that.
I would compare this to EA sports NBA Live team play or more closely NBA 2k's Team Up Mode, but in a more limited since. In NBA 2k team up mode you can either play ranked team up where you are assigned a player to play with(which EA says they might do in the future with madden) or you can play unranked and set a match up just for friends to either play on each other's teams against the CPU or against one another.
This could be patched in and incorporated this year simply by allowing more players to join the game.
If EA really wanted to be great they'd allow Ranked CO-OP games where people could duke it out against one another. All in all the CO-OP mode is extremely fun, but it's short changed, because of those issues and maybe progressively over two patches the things I've said could be patched in Please.
IAN If you read this board please consider these things you've made a great game far better than anything we've seen on 360 and you could make it better as far as long jevity until next August if you fix these things in CO-OP. Thoughts??
