Re: NCAA Negativity

People aren't critical enough. Bleep being politically correct. EA deserves everything they get and then some. If someone from EA was sitting across from my desk I would cuss them up one side and down the other for such piss poor products. I don't need to hide behind a screen of a message board. I would tell them face to face.

Bottom line is I am not buying this product this year. Thanks for screwing the game up EA because I am now addicted to shooters. BTW... your Bad Company game also SUCKS! Back to the topic, the way I look at it is EA has stolen $370.00 from my wallet for the 5 bleeped up games they have made since 2004. That is about 100 cans of Copenhagen I could have wisely spent my money on.

Re: NCAA Negativity

It's hard to tell. Knee jerk reactions and constant harping isn't needed, but well thought out posts that express displeasure are another thing. One thing I've learned over the years is to step back and take a deep breath before spouting off. Yes there are things that frustrate me, but the interaction the developers are showing is very encouraging. I'd rather try to help them out with suggestions rather than spam the board with constant bitching.

Constructive criticism I think is the best way to get your point across.

Re: NCAA Negativity

NCAA '09 was released with broken sliders, a freezing issue when it came to rosters, and other glaring issues. which prevented some of us from even playing it until a patch was released. How much fun was that? I'd say the negativity was more than warranted.

After the fixes, I started enjoying the game.. A lot more than Madden, but it still has problems. Lack of defense is one. The game is far too wide open. I can score on every drive against the CPU, if I try. As fun as the game is, I still have to make house rules, to make the game playable.

I'm confident that 2010 will be an improvement, but for the first time, at least for me, both titles have reached the rent first stage.

I think one of the big problems for some of the hardcore fans here was that the game was just too easy on the hardest level for you guys. I don't have that problem lol. But it was a real concern that made the game almost unplayable (vs. the cpu) for the elite gamer. Seeing some of the Heisman slider sets on this board and how hard they looked were crazy!

The Show had a significant number of complaints about being too easy last year and they helped remedy that by creating a 5th difficulty mode called Legend to give a challenge to the elite. Either NCAA needs to do the same thing OR make the sliders more pronounced to let us fix the problems we see.

If you try? What are you normally doing when you play against the CPU?

house rules man. like ask corso or no audibles, no motion no anything really if you want to get beat. man d is so easy to destroy on this game on any level. running the ball no matter how hard you set the sliders on heisman is way to easy. alot of guys put rules on themselves so to balance the dumb ai.
