Re: NCAA Football 10 Demo Now Available, Post Your Impressions Here

back again, i think im starting to get the hang of this game. I can run the ball quite well, i had 200+ rushing yards with tebow alone in the last game including 85 yd td run, and yes its on heisman. The key is when to use the speed burst.I wonder what tebows speed is b/c he is finally a beast in the game. Never hit the spd burst as soon as u get the ball, wait until the blockers line up and then hit it fast. U can u the same principles on the kickoffs/punt returns just returned my first 2 in one game. Still have problems with getting a pass rush and playing pass defense. Still way too many turnovers, i have lost plenty of games without the cpu scoring an offensive td. How come the cpu can get so much pressure with only 3-4 guys, while i will blitz 5-6 and get no where near the qb. Another thing is when a player is beat by a step they almost always catch the ball.

Hey can anyone help me out with getting sacks. I've rushing with the DE in Player lock and out of it. Can't manage to beat the OT. Any suggestions?

If Tebow can bust an 85 yard run, there's something wrong.

It's been asked before, but I didnt see it answered. Whats with my HB a his little stutter step everytime he takes the handoff? I want him on an ISO or DIVE play to just take the handoff and rumble towards the line, not start dancing. Any idea why he does this?

Happy, what I have done is shoot to the outside with the DE, and force the OT to come with me. Then quickly, shoot back to the inside. I had 4 sacks in one game on All American, just using this method. I had luck also on HM level, but the best I have done is 2 user sacks in one game.

Yep, sadly for more results all you have to do is move the line to the outside you are lining up at then have the line crash the same direction and you can do a straight line to the QB almost every play.

Re: NCAA Football 10 Demo Now Available, Post Your Impressions Here

I don't really come on the ncaa forum much but the run game on the demo is pretty impressive. I know they haven't done a whole lot to improve the game so i'm probably just gonna get fight night round 4 instead, but the run game is so much better than before. Before it seemed as if there was no point in running the ball on heisman cause the defense was just the 85 bears reincarnated. Now you can actually follow the holes and pickup a nice 4 yard gain if you just follow the play. I really hope madden's run game is similar cause that'd be sweet.

That's a big beef I have with this game and the same problem exists in 09 (and most EA games the last few years). The inside move is FAR more effective than an outside rush. They still haven't done the outside rush properly where the DE gets upfield without getting slowed down. The great speed rushers will just run around OTs and get the QB at times. The OT will still get a piece of them but it won't slow them down much. EA has always struggled with that due to suction blocking (the DE never fully engages the OT). That aspect of the DE pass rush really needs to be worked on. Maybe guys have figured out how to do it well in the demo but it's something that I've largely given up on.

Re: NCAA Football 10 Demo Now Available, Post Your Impressions Here

I think we are getting a little carried away with all the "RC" stuff. I agree some of the stuff from the demo video with the CHEESY "RC'S" were bogus,but lets not go labeling EVERY user catch a "RC

I'm a tourny player I can tell the difference between a rocket catch and a regular user.

Re: NCAA Football 10 Demo Now Available, Post Your Impressions Here

I get some nice Moves against OT, a couple times I went right past the guy with a rip. It works really good one run plays it's nice how you can break off a block and make the tackle without switching guys. DT is a little harder I seem to get pushed down a lot, but I can get pressure.

Re: NCAA Football 10 Demo Now Available, Post Your Impressions Here

Even though 09 had some issues, I still had a great time playing it. I still am playing it for that matter. Based on that, do you guys think that I would like 10 or should I skip it and just keep going with 09? Of course I do realize that you can only base your opinions on the demo.

One thing that I would like to say about 10. I think sometimes expectations can be just too high. Without telling my age I made my start on the commodore 64 and I will have to say boy have games changed. Having played on that system, I appreciate the games today. We could still be in an age where the players in Madden still looked like blocks from space invaders. I know technology is far more advanced and capabilities are far greater. I agree that there are too many bugs that slip through the cracks, but most of those do seem to get fixed in the patches. I also agree that 60.00 is alot to ask for a game with issues out of the box, some major at that.....

Sorry, didn't mean to be long winded...
