View Full Version : Attn. 2k & Vc - Make Cpu Demo Camera Playable!!!

To Whom It May Concern,

For years many fanatic hockey videogame players have pleaded for a realistic and PLAYABLE "Television Broadcast" Camera. We watch hundreds of games, many of them in HD, and we follow the action from a camera that is FIXED at centre-ice, and pivots side to side to show each offensive zone on an angle.

Both 2K and EA have implemented "Side" cameras that simply follow the puck from one end to another... EA's gone so far as calling this their 'broadcast' camera. Please!@#

However, something amazing happened when I left the NHL 2K9 demo title screen on for a little while... the CPU demo started up and believe it or not... A perfect example of a true TV broadcast camera was following the action!!! Finally. However, 2K has not activated this wonderful perspective for their devoted videogame players. Why not? (It has already been confirmed that the game carries the same playable camera options as last year)

Here's my plea 2K and VC - In a future game update or patch for NHL 2K9, please include a playable CPU demo camera and make many hockey fans happy. It's that simple. It would only add to all the new presentation improvements that you've already made.

While I'll be the first to admit that it may not be the most 'practical' camera to play from, it still would provide an entertaining experience nonetheless. VC does a wonderful 'broadcast' camera in the NBA series already.


Thanks,

Cozmicoz

Im with you on this.
A fixed in the middle camera, will result in poor game control . I like the 3/4 top view , that changed videogame hockey back in 1990 .....

Yeah, yeah, yeah... who are we anyway?

No one wants to 'reinvent the wheel' here... but if a developer can make my $50 better with the 'flip of a switch', why not? And believe it or not, developers like 2K actually use forums like these to generate ideas and make their products more well-rounded.

You never know.

Don't buy it then! I'm quite sure they would like new ideas without the complaining and nagging that most of you do.

**Well, after all it appears that a proper, television-like broadcast camera will finally make its way into a hockey videogame. The 'side' camera (which will be adjustable in terms of height and zoom) will be available for players to use in the final version on NHL 2K9. Check out the Youtube link below...
