    Being colorblind and the player indicators

    Don't get me wrong: NHL 10 is fantastic. My only gripe so far is that I have a hard time determining what player I am during online team play without moving my player around unless I'm blue or purple. I wish there was a way to chose your color, or alternatively, an option to not use colors and use numbers/symbols.

    There is an option to show my name on the screen but it only pops up for a split second and I usually lose my player when he goes off screen. I guess another option would be to play using the Action camera... can anyone think of other suggestions?

    If you use one of the BAP cameras (High or Low) it will keep you on-screen and more or less centered much of the time, unless you're far away from the puck. The trade-off is you have to put up with the camera rotation which usually happens when you go behind the attacking net.

    Do you have the positioning arrow on? I don't like it, but that may also help when you lose track of your guy. Can't miss the big blue arrow...

    You can turn off the color indicators in the visual options menu during an OTP game and you might be able to choose to leave it on for your player only. I think it still has a gray one over the puck carrier, but that's only two things to look at as opposed to 5 (assuming you don't forget which team you're on! )

      If you are playing with one of the normal camera views you can press select (back button, xbox360) and the camera will center on your player instead of the puck.
