I haven't heard a single bad thing come from anyone who was invited to play on Community Day. So hopefully it is alot better than what we saw on the gameplay videos.

My thoughts exactly!

Re: NCAA Football 11 Hands-On Preview (IGN)

Some of you need to realize that previews are almost always optimistic. It's not because they've been bought off by EA or some other crazy conspiracy, it's because they get to see a lot of the good, new stuff, and they usually refrain from mentioning many of the issues because there's a chance they may be resolved before release.

Previews are meant to highlight the new additions and give a general feeling about the direction of the game, not be an extensive breakdown of all the pros and cons they've seen in an unfinished build.

I want to believe! Though it is just a preview, the positivity of it has counter-balanced the awful-ness of that video for me. I'm looking forward to real gameplay footage and the demo.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Hands-On Preview (IGN)

This quote sums up their experience quite well I think...

"Obviously, after a short preview, I can't say whether EA Sports has succeeded in its effort to deliver a truly authentic college football game, but by the outward appearance of the game I saw in New York and the direction they say they're going, I'd say the developers at Tiburon are well on their way.


He states that he cant really say wether EA has succeded, and then turns around and say that IF things are going in the direction EA says they are going....

In other words, he saw the same thing we saw in that terrible video that they posted, but was assured that everything would be functioning like the want it to be.....at a later date.

Thats what I got from it. Same story every year.

To be fair, we can't know what the author saw. He got to spend time actually playing the game, not just watching a single (really crummy) video. Maybe the game plays better now that it did when the vid was made?
