Just another guy's thoughts:

I just played through every matchup. At first, I noticed or believed that the game looked and felt quite different. But as I played through the games, I realized all in all, I was playing the same game as last year. This was evident when I had defensive tackles knock down my passes two times in a row. That just doesn't happen like that. I can't decide if I like the locomotion or not. It sometimes seemed or felt like the guys were ice skating instead of running.

I am still up in the air in regards to gameplay. I will continue to play the demo until it comes out. I will still buy the game because I am a dynasty guy. But I was not super impressed with what we've had so far.

The atmosphere and such surrounding the game was very cool. I was impressed with that part of the game. It's about time it made its return from the PS2 days.

Here's to hoping for a coaching carousel somewhere in the announcements left and it will overshadow an underwhelming gameplay!

This is about exactly how I feel

sometimes i will pick a play and then it will freeze for 3 seconds before going to the line

Played 2 games and it has been running very smooth. No complaints here.

I am seeing a lot of fumbles, but that can be fixed with a simple slider adjustment

Does anyone else use the player lock on defense? I've been trying it out and it is very challenging lol. I really like it though.

anyone notice that in special teams, it shows you how long a field goal attempt would be on the play call screen? Nice

Didn't read all the pages because there is a lot so not sure if this was said..... Anyways I played 3 games so far, but the last game I was OSU and pretty much was throwing all game. What i notice that was in madden 10 last year is that if i come out in shotgun the cpu sometimes will be in 4-3. I really wish they fix that, because either you have lb's on wr's or they might call a blitz and no one is covering like 2 or 3 wr's. I got 2 td's like that on all-american. Will test out heisman and see if it's the same way, but I hope they fix it to were if i come out in spread of whatever the cpu will come out in dime and such.

Yep, that's been in there forever...seems like a simple fix.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

Some things pissing me off: Screens are still a joke (RB sits and waits a few seconds before going on his route, usually causing the defense to get to your QB before he can throw), and the fatigue sucks quite frankly. I usually turn it off, and def will for this game because these guys get tired so damn easily.

Also, I find the lack of correct Gator helmet for the Pro Combat style to be worrying...hope they don't forget that in the retail version!

Re: NCAA Football 11 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

I'm really enjoying the demo.

Pros
Graphics look great
ESPN overlays
Replays look great and happen often
Passing game improved
Locomotion makes a big difference
Animations appear much smoother
sideline awareness (finally!!!)

Cons
crowd still looks terrible
weird quirks still exist
seems too easy to score on heisman

I just played as FSU against Florida on Heisman and it was much harder. I lost 14-7.

This is like my 3rd time trying to download the game for my PS3 and every time i get some error message does anyone have this problem....

Re: NCAA Football 11 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

I plan on Gfly-ing this game until i can put M11 through its paces then i'll make my decision, but the Ncaa team deserves a

because i love the control and gameplay of N11.

FINALLY a EAS football game worth the 65$

Yea this is very cool. I really like the menus/playbooks in the demo.

I wish the replays were better, like replays we would actually seen on a TV presentation. They are too close, oh well not a huge deal. I'm just happy that we get a lot of replays. Whenever there is a big play there is a replay which is great.

Love the new camera angle. I feel like I’ve got a little more command of the field. It’s so nice that I can get a nice 4-5 yd gain without touching the sprint button. The crowd and cheerleaders look very detailed and realistic. The playbooks are fantastic so far. Love the variety with the offenses. Love that the cpu will take a timeout to ice the kicker. Players riding the stationary bike on the bench is a great little thing. Ball being batted at the line don’t flop straight up into the air. Don’t like the new playcall menu, seems like it could take too long to find a specific play. At times (esp kickoff returns) I feel like the ball carrier is almost ice skating. I really enjoyed NCAA 10. It was so much more playable than any of the previous next gen titles. With that being said NCAA 11 appears that it made a huge leap from last year. Gameplay is great! I LOVE this game!

Sorry man.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

I'm disappointed that playing on a neutral field still isn't neutral. The crowd still cheers mostly for the home team.. It pretty much defeats the purpose
