I'm not sure how you expect the broadcast cam to be remotely playable... You won't be able to see all of your receivers, You won't be able to hit holes correctly while running the ball, and how exactly are you going to make field goals?

I HATE the broadcast cam style they put in RTG on field goals/punts. I don't know why anyone would want to play an entire game that way. The main camera used now has its faults, don't get me wrong, but I just don't understand the frustration for not being able to play with the broadcast cam angle.

Oh wait. Didnt catch the nuance: this view is only available to you in Coach Mode. In other words: not a playable mode where you control the action.

Better than nothing, but would prefer full playability from BC cam.

Sounds like another feature being held back until next year.

Yet its playable in Madden. While this may not be your preferred angle of play, why not give the users more options? The fact that after 5 or 6 years on current gen, there is only one playable camera angle, is a disgrace.

Hell, Joe Montana Football on the Sega Genesis, had multiple playable camera angles.

For me, its playing it as if I were watching a TV broadcast. Simple.

Granted, it's not for everyone. There are alot of guys (those who post and I would imagine those who dont) who enjoy playing from that angle. To each his own.

OT: About the watching real games via those wire cams... Anyone remember like two or three years ago when ESPN showed a UNC vs Duke basketball game on ESPN and on ESPN2 they had like 9 different angles (exaggeration more like 5)? I'd be curious why they never did this for anything else, like a slow Saturday when The U isn't used for another game and do that?

I get having the option to play with BC. I hope they do implement it in the future for those who prefer it.I did sound kind of like a jerk, wasn't trying to be or flame.

And wow, I watched a video of someone playing with BC.. It would take me ages to get used to playing football sideways..

No it wouldn't. Chances are if you're a member of the OS NCAA community you're probably a die-hard NCAA gamer and have years of experience playing the game. Took me no time to learn. You'd be kicking tail in no time

No worries, bro. Didnt take it that way. We're all game fans @ the end of the day!

You might be surprised if you tried it. All I know is that when they had multiple angles available, that was my favorite to play from.
