I'm with those that are saddened to see all the complaints against the camera. The game was built around the camera. Change the camera and the game is nothing but another football game with a decent tackling engine. The beauty of the engine will be lost, as will the beauty of the game.

the other thing about the camera is on Defense you can take control of it with the right stick so using it in tandem with the left you can move your guy and control the camera (left and right) to see what you want and then up to tackle.

And again I'll say this: In real life receivers don't glow red when I look at them and my plays don't appear on the field when I push the right bumper. I'm not trying to argue here, all I'm doing is stating my opinion on the camera, I love the physics and the graphics look pretty good, but the camera ruins it for me. Not saying it should be that way for everybody else, just stating my opinion.

I also don't think that a game or gameplay style being "simulation" hinges on the camera being a certain way, there are alot of other factors that go in to making a game "simulation".

My biggest gripe so far is finding secondary receivers. It either takes too long or I am not dexterous enough to handle the controls. I am going to take Swaldo's advice and try the alternate controls, since he had the same problem as I did.

Every time I try to scan it has been a pick, there isn't enough time to even make it to the 3rd receiver by the time you're eating turf.

I don't disagree about it being a little cumbersome to switch receivers, but in real life a qb wouldn't be able to make it to their 3rd /4th receiver or stand in the pocket forever without eating turf that often either.

I do wish there was way to make it easier to see when my receivers are open deep, so far that is what I am having trouble with so far.

I hear ya. It's not an easy transition. Once you get the hang of it though it's pretty cool. Makes you have more of an understanding why and how QB's make mistakes. Also makes you respect great QB's even more IMO.
