You can choose to turn off coordinator audio, subtitles, and strategy pad. Pretty much everything is an option." Looks like everyone can relax just like SB said in the final version. The awful strategy pad can be turned off.

I wouldn't hold my breath long. Things could have changed since that blog. Unless if someone with the full game can confirm that for us. For now I still say that there is no option to turn it off. I could be wrong tho. But we will see.

Anyone else having an issue with the kicking? It never seems to register my third button press for accuracy, and thus the little slider goes right past it and all my kicks go in random directions. I think Adam Vinatieri took out three fans and a popcorn vender during my first game, lol.

According to Ian they will be setting default speed to "normal" this year..

ch466647 @ian_cummings Just played the demo on both slow and normal. Please put default to normal. Feels much more natural and fun.


ian_cummings @ch466647 consider it done my man!

I've found out that the coach in the headset will not saying nothing if you are in a party with friends. I guess that's the way it works. So if you are in aparty then you will not here nothing until you leave. Then you should hear something loud and clear. I did and it hurt my ear the first time I herd it.

i just got tha full game a couple days ago. There's good news and bad news about that option...YES you can turn the strategy pad off, BUT all that does is take tha icon off tha screen when you play, but it doesn't change tha controls back to tha old way.

I'm with others, I have no idea why after all these years they decided to change tha way you call pre-snap adjustments. I've played about a dozen games since getting tha game and like others have said you do start to get used to it, but it just doesn't "flow" as easy as tha old way does.(if that makes sense)

I've been up half the night looking 4 M11's demo, and I just found out (@ 9am cdt) that it wont be available until this afternoon, well that nailed it 4 me and the ps3, I've had it. The graphics on the 360 are better, my games never shut down during play, and xbox was always 1st with demos. Why did I switch? My son's died twice, (red lights) so being the good dad that I am, I gave him mine...So I'll check it out 2nite

Whoa! That's a really harsh place to make a grammatical error! That erroneous apostrophe can be dangerous!
