It's not just that fresh coat of paint, it's that really dramatic fresh coat of paint." This is not good news.

Really hoping that came out wrong and isn't what he meant to imply. If it is, and there are no major gameplay changes but just another coat of paint, it'll be another disappointing year for me as far as the NCAA series goes.

considering that quote comes from the Art Director and not a gameplay coder or whatever they call themselves. I don't think it means what you think it does. at least I hope. lol

Soildice..u hit the nail on the head..he was talkingin terms of what he and the art guys wanted to do in terms of art

[teamgt]

All of this will not matter if the animations are still freakin jacked up!

[drastix]

let's hope the gameplay matches the graphics

this is an art guy, of course he's going to talk about the work his art team did on the look of the game. Its not like they just added a coat of paint and did nothing to the structure. If it were a guy that worked on the gameplay that said this then i'd be worried but its still only the beginning of April so we still have 3 & 1/2 months until release. I do expect them to start giving us a little more in terms of the gameplay by the end of this month though. At least a little idea of some changes and improvements.
