Best view in 3D?

Just wanted to know people's opinions in what they believe to be is the best view/angle in

3D, that offers you a more clear insight into how your team are playing/responding to tactics?

I think I use the elevated (If that's what it's called) camera. Definitely the best 3d view for me.

I use main stand for matches and zoomed vertical scrolling for penalty shoot outs.

Exactly the same as me!

I use a mix of Touchline and the corner one. The corner one can be really annoying at some grounds because the camera gets stuck behind the stadium -_-

If you want to study your tactics, the 2D view is probably the best. For watching matches though, I'd always use 3D zoomed vertical scrolling.

Agreed. Wholeheartedly.

i use the zoomed out vertical scrolling, cant remember its name, i find it very useful for seeing an all over view of of the pitch, my players, the positions they are taking up and where the opposition might be trying to take an advantage of anything with in my tactics, and where i might be able to get the upper hand.

as Dafuge says 2D is probably the best but now the 3D views are here i just cannot go back to looking at the 2D image unless i want to see look at very close off-side calls.

Cheers lads. I normally use main stand but speaking to many of my friends they seem to think elevated is the best view because you can see more of the pitch. Any chance this thread could be put in a poll as I am interested in reading other people's opinions.

Do you want the two 2D options included, or the just 3D views?

Just 3d views mate. Thanks

Purely for the sake of verisimilitude, I stand on the touchline. It's a good view anyway.

Suprised to see touchline in the lead.

Zoomed vertical scrolling. Pretty much exactly the view I have from my seat irl

Since i got FM10 i had been using the 'touchline view'

But recently i have just started using 'Main Stand view' as a change to freshen it up.

i prefer main stand.i think it gives the best view of everything.

Touchline in classic pitch view for me.

I originally tried touchline, but didn't like it as I couldn't see the pitch all the way to the other side, so had no idea if I had players over there, so now I use the side line view.

Edit: Admittidly, the viewing issues I have on the touchline view only occur on a few occasions, but I prefer to have one view and leave the view alone!

I use sideline view, I find it very handy, although you don't get to see much of the forwards off the ball movements. I used use the zoomed vertical scrolling in FM09 but found I was prone to headaches due to it.

Vertical scrolling. Then i can put some widgets on the sides without covering the pitch.

I like touchline.. Excellent view IMO.

Oh. My. God.

I am the only one who uses "behind corner"? Are you lot mental? It's clearly the best view!

I use Main Stand but now I'm wondering if I should change it.

Elevated view all the way for me. I have tried the others on several occasions but it is the only one I am truly comfortable with.

Touchline all the way .. Actually, I have been suing Main Stand for some time but decided to change to Touchline and loved it

Don't watch in 3D. Tried, but can't bare it. I'd probably use touchline if I were though.

how you organize your match statistics during game using classic view !? I normaly use TV view, and using my players ratings, motivation, match stats and assistant feedback panels... So I can't imagine how are you playing without looking to these 5 things at a same time..

Player motivation, ratings and condition are all on the Stats/Player Ratings page which is displayed between the highlights. There is also the split view which lets you choose what you want to be displayed. I usually check match stats only at half time and personally, aside from pre-match comments which is useful for team talks, I find assistant feedback to be useless.

I prefer Zoomed Vertical Scrolling. Some of the others are too disorienting, and don't give as good a view in terms of being able to see the movements of the players up and down the pitch.

i like sideline as it is the view i find most similar to watching football on tv. love it!
