Funny.

Looks like number 6 to me.

I agree. A game's graphics can tell you how much effort a team put into their work. NCAA's art team does not disappoint again this year.

No your not. I feel the same way. Dont care about dreads, or how the game looks in still pics. I want to see how the game looks in motion, I need to see the pre, halftime, and postgame shows or lack thereof. I know its the first little info, but not really impressed so far.

Like what I'm seeing.

True story. Good eye.

Looks like EA took a hint from the photographic thread from last year and ran with it. I doubt the game will look this amazing full speed.

This wasn't supposed to be about gameplay ya'll...this was just to highlight the visuals(which looks surprisingly great)...still a lot of time left before we really get to see how the game plays...heck, spring football isn't even here yet...LOL

I wonder how that new grass will look, play and affect players in different weather conditions.

Nice to see that they realize they did well with the upgrades in NCAA 11 and want to build on that. They do seem like they listen to the community.

Graphics look great, and I can't wait for more information to come down the pipeline

Looks good

# 31 DaveDQ @ 03/15/11 04:13 PM

The lighting looks great and the video and pictures accomplish their point. However, there is a core issue this game has to address and that is consecutive hit tackles and proper physics occurring when consecutive hit tackles do occur.

If they can't address this much needed football ingredient then they are really admitting, "We can't do consecutive hit tackles and proper physics but we can make the game look pretty standing still."

Again, that's not to say the video isn't nice to see. It serves its purpose. And I know it's early, but in the big scheme of things, when you factor in how many years now this title has been on current gen consoles, there are other things I'll be looking for than dreads and how they look with the sun shining on them.

I am just waiting for actual game play video........Show me some videos of scrambling QBs, dual threat QBs, pocket passers........

And I want to see a video in the rain, snow, hopefully we get some fog games....

Nevertheless I am going to make Denard Robinson look like Denard now with dreads.

I wonder if this will be weekly announcement of new features now or a every other week thing ?

Either way some news is better then no news I say....But I really want to see a rain game though to see how much if all the field degrades during the course of a game.

I think the main problem is the fact that the game has always looked pretty good, but the gameplay has been average (to say the least). And now we get our first information about NCAA 12 and what is it ... cover athletes, dreads, grass, equipment and lighting. To a lot of people, that's a sign of where EA's priorities lie. Whether that's correct or not, that's how it comes off to a lot of people.

The screen shots do look amazing though. Hopefully, they've got some things just as big planned for the gameplay.

# 36 DGuinta1 @ 03/15/11 04:23 PM

Noticed the band in the stands at 1:05 and someone on another site said they noticed people walking up stadium steps.

This is EA marketing strategy. If they gave us all the good stuff now they will have to find a way to get us excited later when it close to release. The order they give info is based on importance to us not importance to them.

The lighting looks great, along with everything else they've added, but these photo's kind of squash the possibility of a physics addition. I never thought there would be physics in the first place, but some were speculating it as a possibility.

This is a picture of one of the many canned animations seen a billion times in ncaa 11.

As is this one. Really though, the new lighting looks spectacular, as does the grass, and I'm glad they're finally putting in the schutt Ion and Air.

I hope they put that speed facemask in i was hoping to see it.
