NFL Gamepass blackouts. Will you be signing up?
-
04-07-2012 9:33pm#1Ok lets see how many potential customers we are talking about who won't be signing back up or who were interested and are not now.
Please state if you were an NFL Gamepass customer last year.
I'm out anyways if its going to be like this. I can find all the streams I want for free, only reason I took gamepass was that I could watch whatever game I wanted without having to look for them. And Redzone too.

Not sure if anyone else watches the way i do, but i try and watch as many games as possible without knowing the final score. So i watch a 6pm Sunday game live on Game Pass, and move the picture down to the bottom of my screen to cut off the other live scores on the ticker. Than when they cut to another live match for an update i hit mute and look awayor look at something else on another window wunning in the background. This keeps it more exciting and entertaining for me, and usually i can watch a few of the 6pm games (in full or condensed) without knowing the final result.
I can't do this on Sky because i can't cut it as easily and they are constantly showing scores in other games or cutting to the studio to talk about other games. Like most sports, my enjoyment is reduced a huge amount if i know the outcome before the off, Game Pass is much more handy than Sky, so its a pity if there is a big game on Sky i will have to watch it on Sky (i can only avoid game results for a day or two before its inevitable i learn about them one way or another). Usually by Tuesday night i will have seen about six of the 6pm Sunday games or so (some condensed) as "live" which makes it more enjoyable.
I like doing similar when it comes to the NFL, but like you say it's virtually impossible to do on Sky as they constantly switch to other games when there's a break in play in their live game.
Is there an option to hide the scores of the other games when watching on Gamepass so that you can do the above without knowing the result?
If (well, more likely when) I get Gamepass I can see myself watching far too much football

No, i even e -mailed them when i first got it and asked if you could turn off the ticker, or if they would show an additional stream on Game Pass with the ticker off, but no. Like i said, i just move the window down a bit to hide the other scores. Its a killer when having to watch on Sky though
