Re: NCAA Football 13 Video - USC Intro with Rece Davis In Studio Update

Im starting to feel its time to change the announcers..its one of those little things that when changed can really give a fresh feel to a sports game. I dont know..maybe i am wrong but it may do some good to get some fresh voices in NCAA now..the overall commentary is not that bad..but the voices..feel worn out and tiring to me...its been too long using the same announcers.

The developers need to understand that simply changing the dialogue each year does not help much..EA needs to start really "improving" the audio much more now..especially the play by play commentary, improve the flow of it during, pre and after play, emotion of it,etc ..same goes with Madden but Madden this year will be getting a facelift for its audio...i feel it may be time for NCAA to follow suit

They are both getting an overhaul in sound technology.

I do hope they fill up the dead spots, though, during intros.

Hopefully that is an early build. Still cool stuff to have, but it isn't really presented very well.

So yeah, this video was not impressive at all. Virtually no difference from 12 aside from the updates, which sound terrible. I mean, they sound so rushed and pieced together, I don't know how the dev team thought this was acceptable. They have no standard of quality, considering this is a major new feature, and it sounds like something they just threw together in a few minutes.

Sounds great in concept, yet woefully executed by NCAA team, as usual.

The story of the past few years of EA football, IMO.

Am I the only one bothered by the pre kickoff huddle, its stale, every team does it, only a couple players do it along with the quarterback, it just does not look right, and it reminds me of this.......

Really liked everything I saw BUT, I feel like the announcers should be talking during the pre game - locker room entrance thing. They could be saying, "...and here is USC getting ready to come out of the locker room" and so forth.

Also, I find the top comment on the Youtube channel pretty funny:

"Thanks Reese. No score in this one."
NO **** THE GAME JUST STARTED.
******* it, lazy commentary again.

Or they could bring in a second B-team crew to call local games. Something like that could add variety to the commentary and make games feel different.

Was that a robot or Rece Davis?

I think this was thrown together for us to see Wut was new with a few tweaks it will be much better I hope. The updates idea was perfect it helps with the overall feel of a real game on tv

Re: NCAA Football 13 Video - USC Intro with Rece Davis In Studio Update

If you want to get some "oomph" for the intros, I'd highly suggest using custom intros....

For instance....

Here is my custom Intro that I designed for Notre Dame. Makes a world of difference.

Seeing the new updates, combined with a cool custom intro music selection....and I'm digging the overall feel of the new intros.

Custom Stadium Sounds are great, but at the moment, they're too much of a hassle to implement in the game beyond a couple of teams. The whole process of getting the audio into the game is convoluted. And then when EA announces we would be able to import more than 100 files at a time, it doesn't work for XBOX. They really have to get away from making every mp3 file a playlist. That in itself is dumb.

Stream them from your laptop. It takes about 5 min total to set a team's playlist via streaming and then simply input the instances before the game.

Literally....5-10 min tops. Well worth it for the added atmosphere it brings.

Not streaming? Hassle. Streaming....piece of cake.

I don't even care I spend a couple hours editing recruits and uploading the stadium sounds before each season.

It's worth it for my experience

EXACTLY

Sadly, EA still doesn't understand the concept of a "upbeat" intro. I picked out about a dozen areas where they could have cranked up some dramatic ESPN music to spike the adrenaline factor to 10. But instead, we get so many dead moments.

I think EA needs to understand that most players don't want to see the boring casual stretching or cheerleader jumping. We want to see a thematically connected intro that makes you badly want to join the action. "Slapping a wall" or watching players grunt in the tunnel isn't going to do that. Or at least not with the appropriate cuts and music selection.

But I will say this. I enjoyed the Sportscenter updates. They copied that 1:1 from the real thing so the presentation pumped you up. Now if only they could make the intro like that.
