Re: Will you buy NCAA 13? (post E3)
Look,
I'm not coming in here to troll; more so to vent my frustrations. I understand the limitations, the need for Madden to come first and foremost in terms of the best features but without any sort of importing draft classes and no integration between importing coaches to the NFL or vice versa, it's a no go for me.
All of that without mentioning that there's no Real-Time Physics. I probably sound like a spoiled child by saying that but my enjoyment from the NCAA experience every year was prioritized like this:
(-1-) Getting the ratings correct so that the right players would transfer with the best results in terms of every attribute, height/weight and where they were projected to be drafted.
(-2-) Playing Road to Glory to import my player into the NFL (in which after about a season or so, I'd stop playing because Superstar mode always sucked).
(-3-) Playing an offline dynasty mode, usually with Northwestern (this year I was planning on playing with the Florida Gators) for my main draft class export.
(-4-) Playing every Bowl game to get a feel for the players I was importing into Madden.
But,
All of this was usually hindered by how boring I found the gameplay to be in NCAA. There was no personality to any of the players, nothing about it felt 'personal' like how a college football game should. I wanna see jaw-dropping, dynamic plays that you could never replicate like you see on Saturdays. I really felt with Real-Time Physics all of that would be finally there for me to enjoy actually playing the game -- but it's not. So, sadly and unfortunately for the lack of importing draft classes and no implementation of Real-Time Physics, I find absolutely no use for NCAA 13 unless somehow the gameplay truly delivers; which I haven't seen since the PS2/Xbox days.
I wish everyone the best who does buy this game and I hope they feel like they got their moneys worth but I am going to pass this year. I've bought essentially the same game three straight years, I'll pass on this one. Save myself the headache.
