Same system but with infinity speakers. Like I said, if it sounds like crap on mine then it must really suck on a lesser system. Maybe that is the problem, they didn't take into account 7.1 and above.

Wow, that sounds incredible actually. I didn't even know there were any boo's in the game at all, and I've been listening for them as well, still needs to be more though, like after the D blows a big play, or the O goes 3 and out. The way the crowd gets louder on that big run is just awesome though.

That sounds absolutley amazing and defintley an improvement over the queitness we see. What i have been doing is pumping in artificial crowd noise with custom stadium sounds sounds better. Im starting to think it might be the larger stadiums, because i played Michigan last night and the crowd was defenitley louder than say TCU dont know if that has any impact on it or not.

Yeah man good point, now that I think about it tonight I'm going to try other sound modes out and see if any others sound better..

Playing @ Northwestern right now, and it's nowhere near as loud as the vid I posted. Clearly different stadiums have different atmospheres, because, yeah, this sounds like a high school game.

Re: Can the crowd noise be adjusted(increased) via a tuner set?

The issue is 100% the volume as well as the crowd just sounding flat out dead. The volume for the entire game is way too "low" from the moment you boot the game up. I normally leave my volume on 57-54 for ALL XBOX 360 games, yet for NCAA 12 I have to turn it up to 43 just to hear the commentary and everything else. This is glaringly evident, and I just don't see how people can gloss over this or say "adjust your surround sound settings". I haven't had to do that with any other XBOX 360 games, now all of the sudden NCAA 12 comes around and their sound is so high-tech that I have to reconfigure my entire surround sound system just to fit it?

No. The entire game's sound is too low (even after turning up all of the volume sliders in-game) and the crowd sounds dead and lifeless most of the time. I have to turn my volume up so loud just to hear anything in NCAA 12 that the friend notification (when people sign in to XBOX Live) actually startles me. That's a problem.

Period.

That does sound much, much better. Can you post all of your sliders for the sound?

Scope the vid I posted? Post #44? That's how. And another point: there seems to be two arguments being made: the first is that the game's overall volume is too low, which is unarguably a fact; but the second is that the crowd sucks as a general rule - doesn't react to things, is dead, etc. - and I clearly think that can be disputed, as I believe both mrlux and I have demonstrated.
