This game just frustrated me to the point of quitting.

I can't deal with the unfair passing. I can't deal with the fact that the only enjoyable part of the whole game is running. I can't deal with the fact that it is impossible to defend the long ball. I can't deal with the fact that there are glitches abound.

I know it's been only 4 days, but I have never been more disappointed at an NCAA. I'm trading it back in tomorrow. EA needs to get their heads out of their asses and do some actual testing before they release a game.

To each his own, but I ended up beating Buffalo 56-7 in my first game. Reed(CB) had three picks, two for TD's. Defense seemed decent for me on default All American.

Defense is pretty solid this year as far as I can tell... You actually have to read it this year... It's just easier to rush than it is to read the defense to open up a good passing game...

There's an impressions thread for just this very thing.

And I happen to think you're wrong. I'm enjoying this year's iteration even with all it's supposed "flaws." So don't act like you speak for everyone. I don't think EA has a whole lot to be ashamed of concerning NCAA 12.

Even when I win I get upset at this game. I was up 35-7 in the 3rd qrt on UNLV with ASU and turned off the game because the way I was up. Passing was 12-35 340 yards all on verts passes because they are the only ones I can semi count on.

Oh and you may want to edit the op because you may get banned.

I love the fact you have to earn your wins now and you pay for your mistakes and carelessness. As for the folks who don't see immediate easy results in the game, or find quick exploits, please do go sell your game. You are most likely the exact type of player I am trying to avoid playing online..

Defense is tough but broken. The CPU is always in perfect position with the current patch. Try the game without the patch and with the patch. Before the patch the Ai played normal. After the patch the AI know where the WR is going before he goes there.

Re: This game just frustrated me to the point of quitting.

First tip, learn to read coverages. I've always been reading coverages with NCAA Football. Before '12, I threw interceptions to open receivers because of warping, etc., whatever. Every interception I've thrown in '12 can be accounted to me making a bad read (or balls effected by defensive linemen).

Second tip, pump fake.

Re: This game just frustrated me to the point of quitting.

I really don't know what you are talking about. So far, I love the gameplay of NCAA 12. I'm not even that great of a player, I'd say average (playing on Heisman level) and though it can be frustrating, especially doing a dynasty with Washington St, I love the challenge this game brings to the table. Just have to take your time and get the feeling of the game and I think you should be fine. That's just me though, to each their own...

Re: This game just frustrated me to the point of quitting.

Yep, just read the coverage and don't force a pass. Pretty much all of my int's are from me panicking and throwing it to a WR because I am pressured. If no one is open within your first few reads, either scramble for yards, throw it away, or buy some more time by stepping up or rolling out if pressure is coming from the backside.

Yup. You can't force passes like you could in previous versions. You have to know when to give up on a play and either check down or throw the ball away.

This is fantastic analysis. Its also 100% spot on. There are throws that in years past you could get away with that you can't anymore. Pre-snap reads are so crucial. In most cases the pre-snap movement can give you a clue as to what to expect, blitz, cover 2 or 3.

If you make a bad pass do some "film study" look back at the replay and see where you were fooled and who was open and what the coverage was vs what you thought it was.

Thankyou! I could not agree more. Thats why you have practice mode. Imo this is the best NCAA of date. I love the fact that guys actually have to learn pass coverages I love the the defense actually play defense I love the fact you have to know when to throw the ball when defenders are looking off! EA in the past has made it to easy for people. Finally glad to see you have to earn your wins and know the game of football! If Madden is anywhere close its going to be a very enjoyable season! Thanks EA for finally catching on PEACE!
