NCAA Football 08 Interview Questions

[fistofrage]

2 Questions:

1. Have they fixed the kicking engine. The CPU NEVER, EVER misses, even with the Accuracy slider at 0%.

2. Is the 5 yard face mask penalty back? It was eliminated in the 2007 version.

Have any changes been made in the kicking game? Specifically Field Goals. The CPU and I never missed left or right in last year's game. The meter was too easy.

[therizing02]

Has anything been done to improve the Penalty system or are we going to get the same penalties called again this year?

BTW, no one calls clipping penalties anymore. It's Illegal Block in the back.

For Next-Gen...Is the crowd atmosphere better this year? The home-field advantage thing was really fun on current-gen, when I went next-gen and saw it wasn't there, the game lost alot of the college football feel.

Also, how have you improved the Dyansty mode(still next-gen)?
