Re: This game is so close to greatness now.

The game feels pretty good, but I'm note sure about greatness. Small things take from the game but overall its better. The no huddle is fixed.

Re: This game is so close to greatness now.

I agree with jfsolo, The safety glitch isn't a huge problem with good sliders. If you don't have enough time to throw the ball deep, it doesn't effect the game. Besides, broken coverage happens in real football. In every college game there is bound to be missed coverage assignments. If it really bugs you, play as a safety or middle safety in a 4-2-5 look.

As far as greatness goes, I think the small things need to be in the game to achieve this. Better and more player models, more equipment options, duplicate jersey numbers, 85 man rosters and fixed blocking interactions would be a huge step in the direction of greatness. Could it be done next year, absolutely.... Will it... I wouldn't count on it.

Re: This game is so close to greatness now.

Definitely the most fun I've had with an NCAA football game on this gen. It definitely could use some more tweaking and additions but I'm much happier after this last patch. Madden sucks too so it probably makes the game seem even better.

Re: This game is so close to greatness now.

I love this game. I tried again last night to play Madden but after playing 2 seasons on Heisman, I couldn't get through a single game. I took it out of my playstation, gave it to my son, and put NCAA back in.

I agree that it is close to greatness, or a lot closer than Madden is. I guess I don't notice the safety glitch because I'm too busy trying to get the ball out quick before I get sacked.

As a high school coach I can say that this is as close to the real thing than anything I have played in a long time.

It seems like the overall difficulty of the game has increased, which I love.

I'm with you this game is the bomb....The increase difficulty has made this game almost perfect for me...with the sliders I play with I see no safety glitch at all....

Good job EA!!

Re: This game is so close to greatness now.

I personally think NCAA 13 is the best football game released this generation!
