Difficulty Modes Are Not Good - Again :(

[robbins]

I have been playing the NCAA 11 demo for weeks now and I am disappointed to say that the difficulty modes are not good.

All American is too easy and Heisman is too hard.

I believe that All American is the most used difficulty mode and it's just too easy. I can be Ohio State and win by 21+ in the demo or switch and be Miami and win by 21+ in the demo.

I can usually gain 6+ yards running outside any time I want. It's just too easy which makes it no fun.

On the flip side, Heisman is too hard. This sucks.

You might want to give the retail version a chance before you make up your mind.

Two words: Sliders son!

Good points guys, I will definitely buy the retail and try to find the right slider combination, I just wish the All American setting was a little harder so I wouldn't have to mess with sliders but at least the sliders can be changed so that is good.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of messing with the sliders, but I will say, on past experience once you find that right balance, games are competitive and awesome. Well worth fooling around with. I got this feeling after I used Madden IQ in Madden 10 last year. It was too inconsistent. I usually just tweak the sliders more after each game based on was it too hard, too easy, way too hard to run etc. Of course, make sure you keep in mind the other teams style of play. If you're defense is just ok, and you face a running powerhouse, I'd just watch out so you don't overcompensate for a teams strength.

Or you could just used someone elses sliders if you want a quicker option.

Could of used the demo impressions thread.
