Pick your plays quicker, i've never noticed any problems with NCAA, once you learn the playbook anyways..



I've never noticed any play call screen lag really. I agree the depth chart lag is awful and needs fixed but this isn't detrimental to online, it's just overall game detrimental.



This is stupid but again, not a huge deal to me, I always play as the same guy usually...
Damn man way to support EA for screwing it up again this year. Are you people blind? If Madden 08 turns out to be just like 06 and 07 will you blindly buy 09 next year? It blows my mind how EA has people brainwashed.

Very disappointing article.

Whats funny is that EA is going to run a seperate Madden Challenge tournament that is to be played online, you would think they would put some kind of effort into making online play lag-free.

I don't care what anyone says, NCAA 08 is a disgrace online. There is a slight lag that doesn't make it unplayable, but definitely effects user control and the kicking game. It is not right for people to just accept this.

As a guy who only plays online, this is very sad to read. Especially when other sports games are lag free, as well as other games who can have 30-40 people in the same game with no lag(Resistance: FoM, and I'm sure Halo is the same way)

I've heard some hypothesize that its "region specific", but who knows.
What about the person you are connecting to ?? I only have 768 DSL and I lag big time while playing 1 friend of mine (opt. online cable) but it runs as smooth as offline play against another (patriot media cable).

Lag is a two way street...

edit : Sorry, the game I am refering to is NCAA 08, x360

Supporting EA? Not at all, just giving my opinion, i'm critical when it affects something I care about. Most of the things on that list I don't care about and I state that way. It's not being excuse making for EA, but i'm not going to sugarcoat my opinion just so I hope no one thinks I'm just supporting EA, the same as I"m not going to criticize EA just for the sake of criticizing them like some of you like to do. Neither method is right, you have to be honest about what you care about and what affects you.

you are right, that is why i've had 1 game out of 20 so far that had some lag in it. You can't control the other user's crappy connection. And that is not EA's fault. None of someone having a crappy connection is. If their servers overall run with lag that's an entirely different issue. I just haven't seen that at all yet in my 20-25 games of online NCAA 08 though.

Re: This is very said indeed another year of this.

I played 07 to death and the menu's were laggy as hell. Just going into the lobby and putting the cursor on the name of another player to see their stats was laggy as hell. Sub menus, laggy. Disconnects were random too and occurred quite frequently, which is after awhile I gave up. I had at least 20 losses last year due to disconnects in the 1st qtr. Sometimes the game was just kicking off Sometimes I was winning. I was beating one guy 35-7 in the 3rd qtr it disconnected and guess who got the loss? Very dumb.
