NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

I am a Miami Hurricane while my good friend back home loves the Florida Gators. We can already envision our football school rivalry transforming into an online-dynasty classic for multiple seasons. Thanks to the new competitive recruiting options, it will be an even more intense fight of program prestige and recruiting power. The Gators will no longer be stealing the five-star athletes from the U under my reign as head coach.

Deja vu.

Re: NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

really wish there was some news about presentation

Good read =)

looks good

There hasn't been any denial about team entrances and presentation. I would assume most are being told to not mention it for one reason or another.

So, can we choose to play a playoffs instead of bowl games? I dont think this has been added yet but would be a welcome addition.

BOWL PATCHES! BOWL PATCHES! BOWL PATCHES!

PLLEEEEEASE EA!!!!

Looking forward to this game, even if Madden seems to have taken bigger strides this season. I just hope we are one day able to see an NCAA game as complete as NCAA 04 on PS2.

can't wait for july 14th!

Re: NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

If team builder is your biggest improvement then that to me seems like a serious priority issue.

Re: NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

The gameplay section, had really nothing to do w/ gameplay

A.I. was not mentioned at all (at least not that I saw). I was really hoping that would have been the main focus for EA. Oh well, we shall wait and see how it turns out.......er.....I will let you guys buy it and let me know how it is.

I hope that the picture of crabtree is from last year! If those running animations are not fixed I will break something.

I don't love the idea of guys running around with 4.2 speed fully padded, but it's better than last year it sounds like.

According to the producer, team builder was the most requested feature. Not mine.

Re: NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

I must have missed that poll!

As far as the game play issues that plagued last year's game, the adaptive A.I., and team entrances, maybe Chase can get those specific questions in for you all at E3. We don't have a copy of the game yet so it's hard to cover those things until we do.

He should be reporting back soon tonight. Thanks all.

If he doesn't, i will get those questions answered for you all as best i can.

I think this might be the year I just get NCAA and not Madden or at least hold off for awhile

First , can't wait to play this game ... We all bash this game because nothing is sadder than unfulfilled potential and ncaa 2009 had a ton of potential.. They didn't mention A.I. changes, only added featues to help give more defensive control? Time will tell if this game is finally offensively and defensively balanced. They talked about adjusting the 40 times.. the problem wasnt how fast the players were, the problem was that all the speed was on offense, 90+ speed players were a dime a dozen on offense, but hard to recruit on defense..especially if you had a smaller school ..

On the positive.... this game can only get better.... can't get any worse..

Re: NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

thats both , really funny and really sad.- next gen has been a bunch of crap so far- 2k8 isnt that bad once you play it for a while- that wasnt to start crap- just mentioning what i've done lately.

I like to play coach mode. Madden is supposed to have AI control over the QB on pass plays. Is it safe to assume NCAA will do the same?

Re: NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

SWeet can't wait for the game.

that makes me want to get a ps3

I agree with bumble 14 , Ncaa 2004 is EA best football engine today...how they continually go backwards is beyond me...anyone taking bets that both live and march madness 2010 will be awful

why is there a paragraph on recruiting promises? They had this last year

Re: NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

Thanks for the article Steve.

Why is this highlighted? It was in 09.

Call me crazy, but isn't that how the game should work?.. Amazing stuff like this even needs to be addressed by the dev. team.

Please EA, feel free to share these improvements.. Windsocks? Bands? :smirk:

This means about 4 or 5 new one-liners

This is honestly the only peace of info I have seen about dynasty updates.. Is this really the only thing that has been added? Don't get me wrong, I like this addition, but it can't possibly be the only thing... Can it?

Steven Bartlett... are you being paid by EA to write the preview? What kind of preview is this? Did you actually preview the game, or did EA give you a list of things to write about? You make the game seem perfect, no negatives huh... SMH

Re: NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

My thoughts exactly. Reads like a press release.

nah lol, i do not have the game or anything. the preview is a compilation of information out there available at the time so this was the best we can do until we get a copy. then we will write something as a hands on impression.

i appreciate the feedback, i understand you all want to know if certain issues plaguing the game were addressed but its real tough to tell at this point. this is just highlighting what has been added on, some good additions in my opinion. i know promises could be made, i just wrote it bad i guess. but i was trying to emphasize the way you can attack the opposing school's recruiting tactics.

thanks guys.

-Steve

THNX for the preview steve. Man they are still far behind from madden. Last gen it was usually the other way around. Man im really having doubts but i wait for your guys review. I dont get how camera flashes, or windsocks improve presentation. Wait a minute there is no refs on the field wtf.

I hate teambuilder.. EA sports should had include all of 1-aa teams like they on older consoles...

Re: NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

sorry they've never had this

Re: NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

Are you sure? I was pretty sure they had some of the 1-aa teams on one of the NCAA football games. I think it was 06 or 07, i had it for gamecube.

Re: NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

yes they did key word being "some" never all

so the team builder you have to do online and then transport it to your game? or is it actually going to be in the menus like the ps2 ncca games create a school? could someone please answer this question?

thanks a bunch

Re: NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

search function is your friend, it's been said over and over you can only create online and then download to your system or download another CAS by searching gamertags

Re: NCAA Football 10 Preview
 

They had them from 2004 onward, I believe, but they only included some of the teams, not all of them. And the rosters were terrible and were for 2004. They never updated them for the remainder of last-gen's lifespan, so even in NCAA 07, if you played as a 1-AA team, you were playing with a 2004 version of them (And even the 2004 version rosters were badly done).

Has campus legend been forgotten all together!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
