Minor Bothersome Things in the NCAA Series

[nazzman]

Great thread, guys

1) How after major turning points in a game (say a huge pick), we immediately get Rece breaking in to prattle on about Marshall's 3-0 game. Bucket of cold water.

2) With time outs, the teams often are "confused" when they're doing the obvious thing.

3) When the coaches meet to shake hands, always the exact same gestures, including the last-second point by the winner.

4) I play DE a lot. If you pump up the crowd, it's easy to go offsides because of the button.

1.Coach/Coordinator Prestige
2.Transfers - Hardly ever see them.
3.Crowd Attendance
4.Recruiting Promises - Promises like "playing Time" never seem to work right.
5.Super-Sim - Time run off never seems right.
6.Sidelines - Lack of detail.

Ineffective sliders. If I have USER at zero and CPU at 100, I should get demolished. This isn't the case. Also, some of them don't do what they are advertised to supposed to be doing.

CPU A.I. Not being able to run the option, weird play calling, special teams atrocities, ew. Just fix it.

It's really annoying how the game has predetermined Games of the Week for every season. A GOTW for 2022 may not be the same as what you'd expect from 2012. In week 14, 2022 of my dynasty I'm playing in this game:



which is as obvious as you can get for a GOTW with not only #2 hosting #1, but it's even in "The Game" which is arguably the biggest rivalry in college sports.

But, since GOTWs are hard coded into the game, we get this as GOTW:



2 unranked teams with losing records.....

Seriously EA?!?

I can't stand the crowd noise. Yes, I have said this before but when the crowd cuts in and out, it's annoying. Big plays for the home team, the crowd cuts out, then comes back in super loud. Even when something bad happens for the home team, the crowd cuts out and the sighs come in super loud. Fix that glitch. Of course it needs to be louder too.

Also, the fans look like they have part of their head going through their hat during the fan cut scenes

I would like to see them add dynamic crowd noise and commentating. Too many times have I made a crucial play late in the game only to hear some canned commentary and the crowd absolutely dead. This would definitely increase the immersion factor of the game

Very bothersome, but the CPU or myself make an improbable comeback or win the game with no time left and there is no emotion or atmosphere.

Sometimes on the intro to a game it will freeze on the QB throwing for a few seconds

Every time you dive forward with a QB it's a fumble

When the playclock runs down to like 5 seconds, it comes up with a message that tells you how to hike the ball even if its in the 4th quarter I think its because i always forget to turn off hints but still

Either 13 or 12, on the back of the box it shows a virginia coach doing a pregame speech to his players. Is that just with Virginia? because thats the only time ive seen it in the game and it would be awesome if it was done for every team

Highly rated CPU players always seem to stay in college forever, manziel stayed til his senior year even though he was rated 99 after his junior year. I think it should happen sometimes but not that often

They did this on NCAA 06 and not sure if they still do or not, but when you take a new job and play your old school they used to have a magazine cover about it. Thought that was neat and they could add pregame commentary to make it better. They could probably incorporate it into recruiting pitches somehow too
