Does NCAA12 even have play testers? Watch this.

1 play with 4 pretty bad errors.

I've noticed the ball doing that a lot. As for the DB teleporting through the other play, unfortunately that's something that happens all the time as well. Apparently EA doesn't care to fix this error or can't. Can really kill the feel of a game, eh.

I agree to an extent, but these are EA games and this is the current gen engine EA has used for years. While it is fun to gripe about these little issues, I don't think we will see a change until the engine is completely overhauled. I will say this though. NCAA 12 has grown on me, particularly with online play. I can't remember having this much fun with a football game.

the defender teleporting and accelerating in directions they couldn't have possibly acheived has been around for years. it's not going away any time soon.

Yeah I still love the game and play pretty much daily, but it can be a real downer when you're on a game winning drive and its 4th and 5 and you throw a pass that should be a first down and out of nowhere you get Tebowed by a DB. I can't complain too much though because I know how to fix the issue [Edits suggested in Madz thread] and I'm too lazy to do so. Just wish its something EA could fix.

Another thing I've noticed happening a lot recently is receivers will get hung behind defensive players. I'll throw the ball a bit early and the receiver should get there but instead gets hung up behind the defensive player. Its all good though it doesn't happen constantly and it feels a lot more realistic than those jesus-DBs.

On the other hand, receivers will often times 'slide' across the field too. So I guess that makes up for the Jesus-DBs at times.

I think the fans of the game that by the game are the testers. No I don't think they're are testers for the game. There are developers, period. These developers are the ones that are left to correct their own mistakes.

Like previous replies say, this engine(s) have not changed for years, since the last systems. The game is pretty stale and has a ton of mistakes/glitches. It really was a bad idea just to port over code and simply polish it up. It's the reason why NCAA football and Madden's sales have decreased over the years.

EA is okay with it, we should be to.

My question is why cant they have a beta test. what would it really cost them i mean honestly.........we could help out with bugs etc.
