I thought it was dumb and then someone had mentioned baseball games and i thought about MLB the Show where theres a big shadow and then a ball that gets smaller and smaller so you know where its going to land. This is basically the same thing so now i really dont mind it. Someone said they should have a different camera angle but i would be most annoyed if everytime i threw the ball the camera angle changed or have to use a different camera angle because i like this camera angle. This just lets you know exactly where the ball is going to land so you dont run to the wrong spot and when the ball is going to arrive so you can time your catch better. Its really not a big deal, people are making way too big of a deal about it. They should have chose a lighter color than red but they didnt so you're going to just have to live with it.

The problem there is, it's just saying because you don't think it's a big deal then no one else should. Nope, I disagree with that thinking. There are always things that will matter to some and not matter to others, I just respect that.

And like I said before, it's the same deal with the celebration squares last year and that's something you didn't see up to 40 times a game like you will with passing. I'm fine with it being there if it can be turned off, but if not then they made a judgement error here. I don't know about other games and I'm not too concerned with those. I play football games, that's all I know and I know this looks ridiculous to me. And hopefully, if they have time and haven't done so already, they'll do something to fix that hideous thing. I was certain they'd learned their lesson after the heat they took for the celebration squares situation.

Yes, but this marker is oversized... it's not just a standard marker. It looks like a UFO landing pad, lol. They might as well made it lime green and glowing...

... We don't know if we can turn the circle off. That's never been mentioned. Didn't see an option at CD.

I hated last gen's, too. The arrowed circle... oh lord.

I'd rather they'd just kept doing what they were doing with this as they'd been all generation. I'm pretty sure if they hadn't changed it people wouldn't have even thought about it.

Every time they implement something new they try to force it and it's always gaudy and overdone. Weapons, Vision, Celebration Squares... the original Fight For the Fumble was gaudy as hell. Thank God I was able to complain early and often about that one, because we almost had a meter that went over the players and looked like Super High Impact Football.

I love their intentions, I just don't get why they design this kinda stuff without considering how gaudy it looks.

LOL.

I didn't see that option at CD, and I was definitely looking for it.

Well i think from now on i'll be coming on the madden fourms for info but not to read the posts it's just way to nerve racking. But I'm still sticking around here.

WOW....everyone needs to relax. This is the first video you have seen with this red dot. EVERY other video has NOT had the dot.

This clearly means that most likely you can turn it off!!

LOL. I've played the actual game. The Big Red Cirlce was there all the time. No ability to turn it off.

Also, you might wanna take another look at the new Cowboys-Eagles vid. The Big Red Circle is in there and very much visible.
