NCAA Football 12 Videos - Gameplay Enhancements and Presentation Improvements

I think it looks great and I've been holding EA's feet to the fire on consecutive hit tackles for a long time now. I don't expect it to be perfect, but we are already seeing reports where you can engage a tackling scenario to help make the tackle. That's a huge step forward for this game.

Very nice to hear and credit should be given to the devs for accomplishing it.

Must remove the Passing Animation the players are suctioned into during these blocks Major concern because it speaks to what we will see on Special Teams. Lanes could not be created in past releases because players entered into this Passing Animation then did the push-off. Very few players were on the ground, most still remained standing. The Speed Slide as players shift to cover their zones on defense. They're no weight shifting during change of direction. Players are changing on a Dime. The Super Jump on 15+ yrd over the middle passes. The Ball Arc "Must" be adjusted or the Jump rating for must be lowered greatly for LB's. Still don't see weight shifting during change of direction for players. Might have to lower Agility ratings again if not addressed. I'm not complaining, but as stated earlier, they're still adjusting/tuning the game. So I hope the Dev's are able to address these in some way. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE Dev's give us an Global Editor option like the one used in NBA Live so we don't have to adjust 1000's of individual players. Being able to adjust an attribute for the entire team up or down would really be a Blessing for Gamers. PLEASE include.

As pleased as I am to get an improved zone defense, this does concern me too.

Looking/sounding good so far. I would have liked to have seen enhancements made per the player models (Player models and body animations look the same as 2010), but gameplay is really where it is at!!

Suction tackling, blocking, catching is finally gone? Improved defensive AI? I am officially excited

Good job NCAA team. I will be buying for the first time in years

That crowd noise is amazing. Did anyone else notice that in the presentation video, the big td catch by penn state made the crowd go insane even though the game is in the horseshoe. Ive been hoping we get this loud crowd feel but i would also love to be able to silence 100,000 people with a big play on the road.

Looks like they have made some good improvements.

That's one of the things I love about watching a road game, maybe even feels better to shut the crowd up rather than have the home fans go crazy
