    ESPN Camera: 30 Stadium Specific Broadcast Angles

    Hey fellas, I wanted to post a thread for you all to see the ESPN Stadium Specific Broadcast Camera Angles that are in NBA Live 14, to see which ones you all think are the best/worst to play with. I remember a few posters posting that they liked the Bobcats camera, so I went and played with them a few times today, and really liked the graphics from that camera angle.

    If EA is able to offer each angle in each arena, which would you be most likely to use?

    One of these, primarily because the scoreboard isn't blocking anything.

      Goofy question but do these represent the real ESPN cameras?

        I am pretty sure that it does. I'm watching the Heat on NBA TV right now and it's very similar.

          I'm feeling the Pacers camera the most. Seems like the best camera to run plays efficiently and also to use the bouncetek without getting the dribbling hands and everything confused.

            The Pacers cam is dead on to the Fox Sports IN camera. Watching the Pacers and Toronto right now.

              One thing I'm really feeling about Live this year. They pretty much nailed the broadcast cameras from each arena. Appreciate this thread.

                Bobcats, Bucks, Cavs, Mavs, Wizards, Wolves.
                Like those the most, they're zoomed in the most. They all need to be zoomed in much more though. Being so far out makes the game look like a portable sometimes.

                  I agree completely. I'm flipping through NBA League Pass and the camera angles that are showing, are almost spot on for the ESPN cameras as well.

                  I wish Facebook didn't degrade the quality so badly. You all can open each picture in a new tab and see it at full size, but the quality is rough still.

                  I love the Bobcats and Wizards camera, just seeing the player detail etc.

                  Like mentioned before, I love using the Pacers to show the spacing and watching plays unfold as well.

                    Really like that Pacers camera..

                    I forgot which angle it was, (HOU I think?) but the bottom of court is covered up by the crowd if their standing....otherwise, it's good..

                      Atlanta, boston, Brooklyn, and Minnesota are ok cameras to me.

                      Charlotte, Golden State, Houston, Lakers, New Orleans, OKC, Philly, Portland, Sacramento, and San Antonio cameras need to be panned down as there is some room at the top showing too much crowd while the scoreboard obscures players near the sideline.

                      I really like the Detroit, Phoenix, Toronto, and Utah cameras. It's a higher view and makes it easier to compensate for the court angles when controlling players.

                      Indiana is good because of the space between the crowd and the sideline.

                        Yeah a lot of these ESPN cameras have the bottom of the court covered by the crowd or by the scoreboard. A dynamically disappearing scoreboard ala NHL 14 would help to make some of these views playable.

                        As it is, I just stick with the EA Sports camera because it's generally a higher angle with less visibility issues.

                        But the biggest camera issue this game has is the fact that we are almost two months past release and there is still no functional overhead view. Everyone who prefers to play basketball from an overhead perspective remains out of luck until the frame rate in the baseline cameras is brought up to an acceptable level of performance.
