A lot of people are complaining about the new play-calling screen but I like it quite a bit. I'm able to find the plays I want quickly and easily.

I'm also happy to see the return of auto-strafe which has been missing since the PS2 days. Us older guys prefer less buttons to press while playing.

I can't really understand why someone would complain too much.  You have the basic play call screen for those who want quick access and the advanced play call screen (which I prefer).  Nothing too different here and I do like the quick buttons to take you to goaline and special teams.

Just noticed there was no more Lee Corso announcing. Can't really complain about that.

I used the advanced screen myself and also LOVE the quick buttons that take you to goalline and special teams. I don't have to fumble around the play calling screen to kick a PAT.

Also a nice touch is it tells you how long a FG will be from the Play Call screen (no more advance math for me). Wink

Can adding 17 to the line-of-scrimmage really be considered "advanced" math? Wink

Agree with all of that.Game feels nice,and usually the release version is a bit better than the demo.
I'll probably cave and get this one around release.

I switched to auto-sprint tonight and saw an immediate improvement in my running game. I've always had a bad happen of hitting sprint once my RB touched the ball and now I don't have to worry about that anymore. The more I play, the more I enjoy the game. I think it will play even better once we can select the game speed in the retail version and slow it down a little bit.

According to PastaPadre, the demo build is over 2 months old. If that's the case, I can't wait to see the final, optimized build of the game.
