    One last plea: EA I implore you to reconsider the replay angles

    The current angles being used for replays are horrendous and it really takes away from the feeling of watching an actual broadcast, which to me is what is trying to be created.

    As it stands right now, I get absolutely nothing out of watching a replay. When watching replays, I want to see how well a play developed, not how "cool" the game looks up close.

    This was a very bad design choice. Hopefully there is still just a small amount of time left to fix this huge mistake.

    It's better than broadcast.

    New angles are being invented all the time on TV.

    What's to say, we don't have remote controlling flying insect sized HD cameras in the future?

        Love em!!!! if espn was capable of getting these type of shots they wouldnt hesitate. NCAA is just ahead of the game dosent really take anything away for me. Plus it shows off the beautiful lighting and player models.

          They're horrible. I want to see a play develop. Isn't that what a replay is supposed to do?

            I agree wholeheartedly. The replays are soooooo nauseating and it exposes a lot of animation flaws. It's just plain garbage. Terrifyingly bad design choice. They have to knock this junk off. Somebody needs to grab them and shake them really hard. This is football with broadcast elements, stick to that, give me the real deal and quit trying to be something you're not supposed to be. This is football, not Gears of War.

              That's the biggest problem right there. Whether they look "cool" or not is so irrelevant. If I can't see the play develop, it's pointless. This defeats the entire purpose of a replay.

                Totally agree. The replays that literally follow the players on field have to go. They look like replays accessed through the instant replay feature on the pause menu. I do like the addition of the angles following the ball NFL Films style. Those look great.

                  I like the new replay angles. They are fun and exciting. To see a play develop, I'll just go into the regular user controlled replay mode.

                      I agree with with the OP. I think the new replays are way too tight. With that said...

                        They're terrible. Watching the entire play develop into a thing of beauty is why we have replays. Not to count how many stitches are in a RB's jersey. Guess I'll just have to manually replay if they don't fix this before release.

                          Agree here.

                            The replays need to be real broadcast replays. You cant say you have true ESPN presentation and then do your own stuff. If you have ESPN presentation then do everything they do. Some of the replays are so close up i cant see anything because all of the players are in the way. Keep it true to ESPN please.

                              They need to compromise both opinions. Get rid of the COMPLETELY unrealisti views, keep the ones that are somewhat unrealistic, but are still pretty cool, and add replays where you can see the entire play develop, which would mostly be TDs or big plays.
