NCAA Football 12 Video - Preview with Ben Haumiller and Jean Adams

[roadman]

Has anyone seen this video? There seem to be a few legit complaints for the one shown in this thread, but this video changed my mind on NCAA.

If you can't see consecutive hit momentum tackles in the first 42 seconds of this video, I don't know what to tell you.

Road,

You were one of few gamers that frequent/posted input on NCAA 11 months after release as we tried/continued to find and address issues that hampered Gameplay with adjusted player ratings and sliders.

I get the excitement about the "Adjusted Tackling" (It's not New Tackling as being posted by many), but so many of the same things that we were tweaking ratings/sliders to fix STILL are in these videos.

We're about to transition some time this week to RTG and/or Dynasty with info on Gameplay centered on tweaked/adjusted Bug fixes from '10/'11 being advertised as New Features.

I see that Nano-Slide on Def will be a Major complaint against the passing Game already.

Just curious what you've seen addressed, because I have yet to hear/see info dealing with Gameplay issues we found in '11.

Maybe it's just me, curious on your input though.

This community has been clamoring for consecutive hit tackles for years. We finally have video proof(and I mean the one I listed above) that consecutive hit tackles are in the game, and people aren't happy about other parts of the game. To me, consecutive hit tackles has been issues for years. Give credit where credit is due and keep hammering away at other parts you don't feel that were addressed.

We have one week of info released with more to come later.

I'm not saying sliding has been 100% taken care of, but the consecutive hit tackles with momentum is a place to start looking forward instead of backward all the time.

In order to add something EA always removes something during gameplay....two years ago they screwed up on fatigue or removed it without saying anything while running their nice little videos before release of the game Last year they removed dirty uniforms although they did release a patch to include it later....but if you wanted to play without the patch not having dirty uniforms was the price you had to pay This year knowing EA i'm pretty sure they removed something that we haven't noticed yet in the videos so please EA make sure fatigue was left alone it worked great in NCAA 11 and please don't have every player on the team rated 90+ for zone coverage in an effort to cheese your way into fixing it this year

I have a feeling that they took out the "No Huddle" feature. Has anybody seen that or heard them talk about having that in the game still?

At 3:56 in the Oregon part of the video, that doesn't look like a very good "Multi or Consecutive Hit"

That really is great if they've fixed the zone defense AI to be more realistic; however, if that is the case, they've got to stop players from doing the "rocket swats" and super-human change of direction.

You have to be able to read the flow of the defense overall and you have to be able to read specific defenders in order to attack a zone. For instance, if I see a linebacker running out to the near flat, and my receiver on that side is running a slant, that's where I'm going with the ball because the LB's momentum will keep him being able to make the play. Subtle instances like that are key to a successful passing game against the zone. From the videos as far, I'm worried that same LB would instantly stop on a dime and rocket 3 yards in the opposite direction to make the swat.

Once again, it's still early, but if we're going to fit the ball into a tight window against more intelligent defenders, they need to be governed by more realistic physics than what I see in the videos.

I think part of the problem with this new tackling system is that it's pushing EA's outdated engine to the brink, but since they are the only football game around they have no real reason to innovate and build a new one in this current gen. I could be wrong though, obviously, maybe it's just a stretch to build a new engine over a one year period.
