Maybe keep the camera the same for running and passing plays (Zoom or Action), but use the Broadcast for short yardage and special teams. I would just like to see the Broadcast camera added when it wouldn't distract from game play.

The PS2 versions had that. You could use a custom camera or use zoom for run and a different camera for pass.

I still wish they would just steal the NCAA camera code and add it into Madden. Is it really that hard?

To call it a Zoomed cam is a bit of a misnomer lol. It's not zoomed in at all really.

I love the fact that the camera is placed at field level though and is more of a 3rd Person cam.

If they zoomed it in much more, and allowed the right stick to control the viewing axis, then it would be perfect.

As it stands, by virtue of it being a field level cam, it's still much more preferable than the Standard cam, so I would definitely use this over any other. One small step as it were.

Now if they would just bring back user defined cameras...

I love it...when I'm on offense. I don't know how I would be able to play it on defense.

Seems like the offense would always have the advantage.

I do think the camera should be zoomed in a little more closer to the QB/line of scrimmage. It's just a bit too far.

But I like this as an option and definitely want to try it out.

I understand it pans in and out, but that doesn't make it a zoomed angle IMO. I was looking for something alot closer to the action. Something to really enjoy using when running the ball. I will give it a shot for sure. I love trying all the angles, and I feel this angle will be fun. I just wouldn't call this a zoomed camera. I feel the name is misleading. This camera actually deserves a different name, something with more flavor Can you come up with a better name that describes this camera? Oh wait just thought about something. I can't say this till I see what the camera looks like when your running the ball. Hmmmm A photo please

Call it what it is. Field Level Cam.

For Defense it should be reversed, so that the defense is on the bottom and offense is on top, like Backbreaker.

As for the Offense having the advantage, the Offense always has the advantage in real life too. That's why Defense is so instrumental in winning if you actually are one of the lucky few to have a really good Defense.

As jwallace1975 correctly stated earlier The "dead space" below the QB is necessary for the angle to be playable. If you pull the camera closer to eliminate that space, then you'll lose more viewing area to the left and right, which would make it hard to see the receivers on the outside and would also make it hard to keep an eye on blitzing cornerbacks before it's too late. With that said Im hoping that the devs could adjust the screen ;presnap as shown in the images below. [Image 1.]My favorite [Image 2] After the ball is snapped transition the camera view during passing plays so we could see the wideouts " Accordially".As shown below [During passing plays] "TRANSITION OUT" This here alone will show off the graphics ,give you that immersion factor that we zoom fans crave,while sizing the defensive personnel match ups presnap ;in regards of who to take advantage of, or whom to steer clear away from/opposing threat.

The first thing I thought when i saw that picture is;

The players look to tall. Not proportioned right with the field or stadium.

And Alex smith holding the ball like that. Find me a qb that holds the ball like that.

time for tweaking... i liked 2k8 camera alot..... deep ball effect was cool too..... customize it
