    The best way to play Madden 12 is....

    Put game speed on slow, player threshold 35, and use broadcast cam and Gameflow, and last thing, put the crowd volume at 100. You miss out on a ton of the replay stuff and nfl style presentation by not playing using Gameflow. Broadcast cam this year is amazing, I'll never play a game against the CPU any other way. I literally feel like I'm controlling a game that's on tv or sitting in the stands, it's awesome. If you've never played with BC cam on Madden 12 at least give it a shot, it's revolutionary IMO.

    You can't see recievers down field or holes when running.

        BC Cam is revolutionary?

        haha, come on JP.

        anyway, letting the CPU duke it out in the Day time at Bengals stadium, once again looks amazing.

        I wish they let us use that third person cam they showed from one of the very first footage's of Madden 12. I think the game would look much better. The current "Zoom" cam is annoying, and too tilted high.

        I can't believe we are so many years into "next gen" and the bad animations are still around and stand out and totally ruin the immersion during gameplay/replay.

            Glad to see you found something that works for you

            Now for me personally I play in the total opposite of your setup.

            I just love making things more authentic and harder for myself.

                I actually run better from broadcast cam. Seeing downfield is a problem for certain receivers on certain routes, but not near as problematic as some make it out to be this year (the angles you get are better than previous years). Then again, I've been preferring a broadcast view for nearly two decades...lol....so it's probably just a comfort level thing for most.

                    What I should have said was the way Madden 12 did Broadcast Cam was revolutionary. The way every stadium has a different broadcast camera angle is what I was referring to. I'm 28 but I've still played just about every football game anyone else has. My first football game I played was Ten Yard Fight for NES. I was born in '82 so I missed out on Atari Football. Tecmo Bowl was the standard when I was a kid, so I know what you mean.

                      It's a challenge, but I usually put cpu ints around 25 and leave everything else around all pro skill levels. At first it was really tough, but now I'm averaging about 200-260 yards passing, 2-3tds, 1-3ints, and 85-120 yards rushing.

                        What's wrong with game speed slow and player threshold 35? The game is silky smooth at that speed.

                          Nothing wrong with the speed and threshold... I stopped reading when you said broadcast cam was the best way to play.

                            broadcast view is great, it is like watching and controlling a game, but like others have said the problem is with the long passing game, you can see better throwing screens and such, but if you wanna throw deep you just have to hope and fluke it of whats downfield!, that is the only issue I have with it

                              I totally agree with the OP, broadcast cam is the only way i play madden 12. I run and throw the ball with no problems.

                              I hope bcam is one of the features that is kept in future editions of madden.
