How in the world is this cam a "hybrid" between broadcast, sky and blimp? This does not even resemble a broadcast camera AT ALL.

If you want a true broadcast cam, please state it in this thread.


Tarheel.

p.s. let's be civil so this is not closed.

I'm all for it for the sake of other people but no way in Hell would I ever play from a side angle.

Can we try the new angles 1st before complaining? I cannot possibly see ever using a "Tecmo Bowl" view either.

Yeah passing and pass defense are simply guesswork in a broadcast came with the current games. I mean with Tecmo bowl the coverage AI was pretty much limited to stand there and let receiver run past you or cover them, do one or the other before receiver goes ten yards.

Watch a game from broadcast view and tell me which receivers are open during passing plays. I don't know how many times i have watched a game and wondered if they are not trying to go deep or it is just covered. I am all for having it in the game, but it is really only for "coach mode."

It's a DYNAMIC camera. At least wait to see what the dynamics are before petitioning...

Because you're petitioning for something that most likely has next to zero support from 95% of the gamers that play the game; not to mention you're doing it without knowing the specifics of the camera angles that they just added to the game.

Perhaps this thread is in the wrong location. It seems to me that "Petition(s)" do NOT belong in the NCAA "General Discussion" (For general discussion in regards to NCAA Football) portion of the forums. Rather, they seem more appropriate for the "Wishlist & Feedback" (What would you like to see added to the NCAA Football franchise? Share your thoughts with the world.)

We did and it was held that only TGT's resident lawyer could post "official" threads or "petition" for anything. In fact, petitioning for anything w/o a law license could cause you people to end up in serious trouble. :nod:

I think the overall point is, you're early on the request. At least wait till you see what you don't like about this camera before "petitioning" for a new one. Maybe you'll love it, maybe you'll have a suggestion for it the way it is. Once you get an idea of WHY you want a "true" broadcast cam, bring that to the table. It would be received with a lot of constructive ideas I'm sure.

The new cams are all vertical. He wants a side scroller that provides a view like you see on TV. Hardly a crazy request, especially since Madden has had a broadcast camera for a couple years.

I honestly don't see why some of you guys are so petty that you can't understand the op. instead the thread is cluttered with useless nonsense when it's a reasonable request that would not require much work given Madden has the code already. Just let the op make his point. If you don't agree just say so or ignore the thread. I see no reason to derail it the way it has.

Well, for me, I thought he was just complaining about the new broadcast cam being introduced, not that he wanted a side scroller. Nowhere in any of his posts did I read anything to do with a side scroller.

Though that brings up the question, how the hell can people play like that? Basketball and hockey are one thing, since they're mostly dynamic and fewer players. Football, trying to find the right hole as a running back, while viewing it from the side, etc, no way in hell could I ever manage that. I wouldn't even be able to reorient myself when it comes to stick directions.

Lighten up. The new guy creates a petition thread and makes demands about it being a petition thread only. As if petitions really work, especially on a sports gaming forum. Should have just made a comment in a proper thread.

This is why many forums have limitations on starting threads for newcomers.

I think some guys just want it for Coach mode. Call plays and watch.

I'd like to give a side scroller a shot again like Tecmo. There are a few issues with it. Maddens broadcast camera angle is too low. You can't see the holes IMO.

The angle needs to be a top down angle (which isn't true broadcast either).

I think this angle would be really good if it zoomed in more on running plays. The old Tecmo angle was easy to run with but too hard to see downfield. This pic was from the failed PS1 Tecmo game.

Yeah, coach mode would make it interesting to watch. Actually playing the game, I don't see how I could ever do it. Passing would be one thing, because it'd just be pressing the button to throw to the receiver, which would be easy to tell exactly who is the most open at any given moment (something you can't tell the second you snap the ball now, and that I like), but running, no way in hell would I ever be able to rush with a camera like that. I'd be going with muscle memory for moving the sticks around and my running back would look like a dumbass running in circles or going the wrong way on a play instead of hitting the hole.
