Re: Who Are We Kidding?

My idea of it all is that if someone is cheating you, then just cheat back. If they only throw deep, do the same. If they run with their QB constantly and you have a pocket QB, put a CB in there and do the same. I know you might feel guilty doing it, but what other choice do you have besides getting blown out of the sky or playing offline?

Well, when the wrong people is the majority, you can't really help it.
You are absolutely right. Last night practically everyone on my friend's list was playing someone so I got in a few random games. The game is so new and everyone's record is so low that you can't tell if a 1-2 guy is a cheeser or not. Usually I can tell at the team select screen. The other day I played some dude named UMDTERPS33 and he had Maryland selected as his favorite team, who is a B+ just like FSU, but he switched to USC anyway. I just backed out of that one.

Then I got in a game with a guy calling hail marys on 1st down and completeing them. I don't normally quit on anyone, but I quit on this guy. Then another guy using VT takes Vick and runs every down. I put spies on both sides and he ran by the spies! He called like 15 straight running plays with Vick and I quit that one, too. I've already quit 2 more games than I quit all last year.

It also seems like people will quit on you a lot quicker now than they used to. I've had people quit on me afer I score the first TD.

With the impact players being so overpowering and the bomb being almost money, you're going to see a lot more cheesing this year than you did last year.

Wonder why they didn't put the fair play stuff in this game like Madden. I'm already seeing guys go for it on 4th and 26 from their own 25 and throwing deep and getting it. I have a feeling my online career is going to be real short this year.

I was fortunate to hook up with a great bunch of guys on MP in a NCAA league last year, and we are continuing it with NCAA 06. We draft B- teams and have a strict set of rules we follow. Were all about having a blast playing online, winning is just icing on the cake.

It is still a gangsta-ball fest!!!

I just finished a game online against a guy who ran 2 plays - goalline iso and hail mary. Everything was no-huddled. He was beating the snot out of me before I quit out of frustration. And I consider myself a good player - I've played NCAA since the '98 version on the original PS. I've had my online rank as high as 400.

Why does EA make such a crappy game? Why are they so damn lazy? Everyone knew QB scramble and the deep ball were the downfall of NCAA 05, yet nothing has changed. Why do they reward downright crappy play? So their QB scrambles 30 yards across the field, throws on the run 50 yards downfield, and hits his WR in stride, who catches the ball in the midst of 3 defensive backs? Come ON! Play like that should be punished in the form of an interception or very bad throw.

This game is a sham. If I see Vince Young scramble for another first down on 3rd and 18, I might explode.

Anyone who has played otherwise and differs from this viewpoint should open their eyes.

New year, same old stuff. Nothing has changed.

You should have quit when you noticed the trend.. Heres my motto.. Sim or bust.. Cheese & play unsim, I'm out like Jermain Taylor..

If you can't stop a hail mary or a qb scramble then I feel for you.
Hits too close to home, hu?.. Taking advantage of poorly programmed AI is cheesing, buddy.. I'm sure you do it a lot.. Why else would you be so defensive about it..
