Re: NCAA Football 09 Demo Available: Discuss Here

Entrances are a nice touch..but I mean if it's that hard to put in I'd rather they look elsewhere to be honest. Maybe they could just enhance the commentary in the pre game, or at halftime/post game a bit? Would that be easier?

How hard can it be to put in? NFL 2k5 wasn't made by aliens, they were human beings, just like the EA staff. It didn't take them four years of "Oh, maybe next year." This EA monopoly is the worst thing to every happen to football games, since they can now put out a sub-par, half-assed game and not fear low sales. It's absolutely pathetic. Thanks, EA.

Our AI is pretty impressive though. It will never be perfect... cause when you perfect computer AI, the computer starts to teach itself. Since computers are so fast, within 3 days the game will have turned all your household appliances against you. Within a month it will have already taken over all the missile systems in the world and destroyed humanity. We don't want that to happen, do we?

Exactly.

I agree with tig5309, entrances may take too much work but having players warmup or show maybe like a star RB cutting before the game hopefully is something we can see next year

too much work? madden has an entrance where announcers describe some of the key players of the team in the beginning.Don't think its that hard to just make a specific college team run out of a tunnel while the team's name is being said.

Before going off on a complete rant, I suggest reading thru the Q & A thread and you'll get the answer as to why entrances aren't in the game.

Re: NCAA Football 09 Demo Available: Discuss Here

i couldn't really tell a diff between last years. I don't think it's very good and deleted the demo. to each his own, but if you told me that's what a fooball game would look and play like in 2008 back in 2004 I would have though it was a joke.

it just feels 'cheap' to me.

BTW...

I have read about quick snapping by the CPU and the pass rush problem but to be honest...I've gotten a decent amount of pressure...both on LSU's QB and from the LSU pass rush. As long as the sliders are effective, I really dont think either of these "huge problems" will be much of an issue. JMHO

Rent 08, play one game, LSU at OSU. Then download the demo again, play it, then tell me its the same as 08. If you still honestly believe that then I guess this game really isn't for you.

they do the same thing in NCAA, I want to actually see the players on the field warming before the game b/c I realize this would be less taxing then getting all the custom entrances

Are the EA guys taking the feedback from the demo and fixing the bugs before the final version?

Re: NCAA Football 09 Demo Available: Discuss Here

The CPU seems to get off some pretty miraculous passes when you blitz and finds a receiver more times than not. I blitzed a safety and CB on the same side to see what happens and for some reason the WR does a silly pirouette catching the ball when there isn't a defender within 20 yards of him. Wish they could figure out how to make WRs catch balls in full stride and just keep going instead of always having WRs making spinning and jumping catches when not necessary.

nope.

The demo is from a build that has already been improved upon. The demo is a build from an early community day event.
