Off is my preference. It looks cartoonish when they are on.

Re: Made a small change this week...

I like your decision to clean it up. Like you said its back to Football.

Just make a notation in the manual for those that need help or aids in the game how they can access it.

Again nice decision.

Re: Made a small change this week...

Of the options given, the only one I really use is the pre-play menu, because sometimes I just forget certain buttons and analog flicks. That being said, having them off by default is better. Maybe if you keep the same types of loading screens, throw up a "Need preplay help? Want to see which players are 'weapons'? Turn these on in the options tab in the pause menu." type of thing so if the casual people want it, they can easily find it.

Weapons icons off, please.

I use the coach view as well and once in a while I'll use pre-play controls.

However; you could put the pre-play controls in the book as usual and have a clean screen except for the score and other presentation items.

I like the preplay menu NCAA uses, its nice, small, and neat. What makes Maddens so terrible is the fact it actually includes how to snap the ball, fake snap, and other stuff that should just be in the manual.

Re: Made a small change this week...

I prefer off.

Two things:

1: I liked the weapon icons shown for the sole purpose of identifying a specific defensive player. If there is a way that you can identify him without the icon, I'm all for it.

2) Could it be possible to tying the pre-play menus on/off to the skill level chosen? Say for Rookie/Pro they are on and for All-Pro/All-Madden they are automatically off? Or if you had a choice of say like Hardcore/Casual or something along those lines.

Just my .02.

Love the ideaology of "pure football".

Re: Made a small change this week...

Is the scoreboard going to go away once the ball is snapped in 10? I have a newer Plasma and the orbiter seems to have kept any burn-in away, but that constant scoreboard at the top of the screen drives me nuts. Please make it an option to remove it or at least vanish during a play.
