NCAA Football 14 Demo is Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360, PS3)

Re: NCAA Football 14 Demo is Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360, PS3)

Unfortunately, the more I play the demo, the more bugs and glitches crop up. The latest of witch is the "DB Glitch" where I passed the ball deep and the CB ran with the WR, and right before the ball gets there, the CB turns and runs towards the LOS, then when the WR catches the ball he turns around and gives chase, albeit too late.

Some other glitches:

Floating ball in endzone after scores
IE decides ball carrier is not down after hitting the ground (so he gets to keep running lol)
AI Center stands over ball but never hikes it...let's playclock run down
Commentators say I should have thrown the ball away when I throw it away
Playcall screen lags to the point I cannot call a defense play when the AI no huddles

Yikes, I've been out of town unable to play the demo again.

I knew this had potential of happening. There were a lot of us that pushed the DB Glitch issue - yet no GameChanger, no Mod - no anyone with some pull supported it. I tweeted, I sent messages to the big time guys on youtube/facebook and nothing. I even applied to be a GameChanger just to fix this issue.

Here's the thread - and it's in my sig.

Re: NCAA Football 14 Demo is Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360, PS3)

Loving the demo, but does anybody else feel that the animations play out a little too much? Like I've seen a ton of times when more then one player could jump in on the tackle, and the animation just plays out instead and the extra guys just kinda bounce off the runner like there's still the force field there.. Quite annoying bc I've seen some good chances for pile ups and hang tackling and each time the animation just plays thru and the other tacklers bounce off and don't grab on or cause impact.

I agree, it bugs me when my running back bounces off a tackle, is clearing stll on his feet able to run but the stumbling animation plays out and he falls down. Like you said with the defenders, the 2nd guy just bounces off instead of adding on to the tackle.

Yea the more I play the demo the less i'm enjoying it. I can't remember the last time a demo had so many major glitches that happen. While I haven't experienced this, people have had OT games where a team gets 2 possessions in a row when the other team is supposed to get the ball. That's not a minor thing. Even for a demo that shouldn't happen.

I've seen the floating ball in the endzone everytime someone scores, not just once or twice now. And when it happens the play clock runs down to 0 and the team gets a delay penalty. I haven't experienced the center just taking off downfield like others have but i've seen the one where the ball carrier decides he's not down and gets up and continues running. Lag with the playcalling screen is beyond ridiculous when you're on defense and the cpu is running the no huddle, doesn't give you enough time to pick a play. CPU still can't cover 4 verticals and when you run no huddle on offense the CPU doesn't change their play.

I swear i've been trying hard to see all the positives everyone is raving about but I can't understand how EVERY game i've played so far i'm seeing pretty major glitches yet I come on here and people are raving about how great things are. Surely these people are having similar issues if it happens to me every game I play.

Yes it's a demo but I can't remember an NCAA demo having such ridiculous glitches. At this point i'm too frustrated with the demo to consider buying the retail version. Atmosphere is stale other than when Seven Nation Army plays and the game gets boring after a while. Presentation is lame as well with the preset cutscenes, stale commentary and lack of emotion after things like a touchdown.

Lol I experienced the double possession glitch when playin Oregon vs. Texas A&M... So annoying.. Such a good game going and then that happens..

Re: NCAA Football 14 Demo is Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360, PS3)

I was going to win on Heisman and then the cpu gets a lucky TD. no biggie, still up by 3 with under 2 minutes left. cpu goes for onside kick, my onside recovery team bends over at the waist and juggles the ball away to the cpu, I end up losing.

heh, can't even be mad I should know what to expect by now.

Were you playing as VT because that sounds accurate.

SMH. The DB glitch is still there? That is unacceptable. The game is unplayable in my eyes if that is the case.

Wow, I haven't encountered any of the things you guys are talking about.. I must be lucky. I'll play more after work..

I really hope this is fixed in the retail version. I kept wondering why I was getting so wide open deep. I swear people who played this at E3 said it was fixed. And when you add this to the fact that passes in the middle of the field are too easy its a recipe for disaster. And its unfortunate because there are so many improvements this year.

I'm gonna try to stay optimistic.

Yeah, man, thanks for being a champion about this issue last year. Hopefully our voices are heard on this issue and addressed in a day one patch, but I know that's just wishful thinking. Out of all of the glitches I mentioned, this one hurts the game the most. On the playcalling lag I can just pretend the AI offense is too fast for my D...on the announcing miscues I can just ignore it or turn off the announcers...etc. etc.

I just want the good ol' days back when we would come in here and just have "who loves this game more" fests and brag about calling in sick and forgetting our wedding anniversaries because we're having so much fun.

It's still alot of positives with the weight of the players, some fun collision animations and quirks that play out because of the IE (I got hit going over the middle and my WR did the SPLITS lol!) and the improvements to the option game. But man, the glitches the glitches. I won't support the full game either until I hear these issues are being addressed or at least acknowledged and considered.

[SECElit3]

I think a few of you are getting way too bent out of shape, way too early, over the demo. We all know from past history, the final release NEVER plays like the demo. We have no idea how early of a build this is.

Let the slider guys work their magic when the game releases. Only then will we know what type of game this is, under the hood.

As for the DB glitch in 13, I honestly can't say I've seen it. I am having lots of fun with NCAA 13

[mrprice33]

um... he did post a video



It's bad when you're on defense. Yes Oregon runs their offense fast in real life but I wasn't playing Oregon i was playing Michigan. Play gets done, teams starting running to line up, still no play selection screen. Both teams lined up, play selection screen pops up and you have maybe 1-2 secs to pick a play before the ball is snapped. Yes hurry up speeds up the game, but most teams don't run no huddle and snap the ball in 5 secs like Oregon. And as soon as a play is over you should be able to select a new play, defenses in real life don't line up and wait 5 secs to look over to the coordinator while the offenses are already lined up ready to go.

I was OSU and 3 straight plays Michigan ran a no huddle and snapped the ball before I got to select a play. How are you supposed to stop the offense, which is already overpowering this year with the run game, when you can't even select a play?

This wasn't this way on the E3 build. I typically got about 6-8 seconds to pick my play. Pretty sure that build is closer to final so I don't think this will be an issue in retail.

To be honest Jersey, the more I play it, the more I feel like this should have been ncaa 13. Instead, we are getting it this year, and while its an improvement, I think it should be further along. The atmosphere is better than last year, but it still is not up to the other sports games out this year. And, if its true the db glitch is still there, that will be unacceptable. I really think this is the best they can do.

Re: NCAA Football 14 Demo is Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360, PS3)

I've had about 50 games played on Heisman since the demo came out and I have yet to see the DB glitch. I know what it is, but I just haven't seen it happen yet, out of about 50 games. I'm clueless on how most people are seeing all these bugs come out the woodworks with the demo, but I have yet to see any of it, besides this one play where the QB did some weird hover in mid dive. Other than that I've seen nothing that made me scratch my head.
