NHL 11 Video - Top 10 Goals Recreated

Re: NHL 11 Video - Top 10 Goals Recreated

That was rather amazing... makes you wonder how much time was put into recreating all of those. But, I couldn't help but watch those clips and think how much better it would all look if every bump, jostle & collision was accounted for (as we were talking about in the quick clip thread). Really sticks out like a sore thumb when shown against real video in that manner.

Hey QB, just out of curiosity, have you even asked an NHL dev if this is possible?

Fairly sure I haven't. In theory, it probably is, provided it wouldn't affect framerate or other game performance. But in practice, there isn't much downtime in a hockey game, so a constant ticker doesn't fit as well as it would in a football or baseball game.

I see how it would up the broadcast feel, but (for me) it is unnecessary and most likely intrusive. Now having it come up during breaks in play or intermission, that would make sense and add something, but again we're talking about a small amount of game time. In other words, it's a cool idea that would make a great option, but it would likely be down the list of possible presentation upgrades.

That was incredible.

Great video, man!

The sad part is that these remarkable deke goals are the only way to score consistently in EA's NHL games since normal wrist and slap shots rarely go in.

This.

I've been wanting a score overlay that goes fully across the screen for years.... with team logos by the names too.... maybe I'll ask an NHL dev if they ever do a live Q&A session.

I didn't mean during a game. I meant in the Be A GM menus to keep us up to date on scores and transactions.

Wonder how long it took to recreate all those goals, then put it all together into this kick a$$ video!!??

That was pure awesomeness! (Sorry Miz!)

Oops. My bad. Still though, I'd rather have the TSN Score Overlay than the small EA Sports one that sits in the corner...
