Re: Red River Shootout=Ordinary game for EA

perhaps the game should have been aired on the longhorn network.....

Re: Red River Shootout=Ordinary game for EA

That's been the biggest issue with NCAA on current gen. The presentation is not done well. There is no pre and post game show, no emotion from players in big games, and stale commentary. Every game feels the same from that standpoint.

I've said it before but 2K8's College Hoops had amazing presentation and look how long ago that came out. Sure it wasn't awesome on every level but at the time it was done well. EA has never even come close to that even now in NCAA.

EA has needed to overhaul this for years and never has. Big games, rivalry games, and bowl games feel the same as any other game.

Re: Red River Shootout=Ordinary game for EA

I thought the gameplay was the biggest issue this gen?

When they fix the this are we all going to pile on the gameplay? Or Vice Versa.

what really kills the game for me is when crap happens that shouldn't, when I see super LBs, WRs not even trying, god-awful blocking, insane CPU comebacks, etc the game atmosphere is already out the window and something I'm not even thinking about. IMO, they can make a game atmosphere feel like real life but if the actual football game is terrible, it won't be fun
I agree they need to re-do or add alot more because we have pretty much heard the same stuff for years on end..

And ya everything will repeat itself sooner(no pun intended) or later but it would add a bunch to the game IMO...

Kick a last second feild goal and all you get is .... "It's good game over" every time

I like that EA will add the team celebrating with rivalry trophies. That adds a little to those types of game. And I'm also liking that they updated The Cotton Bowl with the full upper deck.

Well, once I see hummingbird movement, stiff blocking interactions, and bowling-pin defenders on the opening kickoff, I'm pretty well ready to turn the game off right there, but having a dead stadium and boring commentary doesn't help the issue either.
