NCAA Football 09 Debut Trailer

Re: NCAA Football 09 Debut Trailer

I see Tebow's facemask is still hideous. Seriously, the dude won the Heisman. At least get him a legit facemask. I know it's petty, but hundreds of college football players are wearing that facemask and it appears EA still hasn't put it in the game.

Sorry for being petty, but some little things fire us all up sometimes.

Quit complaining, at least you didn't have the indignity of your entire teams' facemasks being the wrong colors (Buckeyes being white instead of gray in 2007).

That was ridiculous. I was even ticked about that and I root against the Buckeyes.

Seriously does anybody play the mascot game? I cant think of anything more worthless. THey can take the time and data that they put into that and use it to improve other more important areas of the game.

The trailer looks great! But then again it's just a trailer...

Re: NCAA Football 09 Debut Trailer

These thoughts have been mentioned but as a Big XII kind of guy (and more importantly an Oklahoma guy) these things have me excited:

The RRS is in the Cotton bowl AND the crowd is split down the 50 yard line in the vid. Hooray!

Okie State's stadium expansion is in.

Otherwise, stadiums look better, game looks better overall. Instead of the cartoony look they've toned down the colors quite a bit, which is a huge plus.

I'm worried the wide open gameplay is going to result in unrealistic results with guys juking and doing unhumanlike stuff. HOWEVER, I honestly just want the game to be fun. I have never asked for a perfect sim as long as I can have fun with the game (as I think a perfect sim would actually suck). So here's to hoping the fun factor is back in 09.

I also might add that the audible system I proposed on MaddenMania right after NCAA was released last year looks like it is *kinda* in the game. I went into detail on a very similar system and Christmas Cards can be sent to me later.

I don't know you but i like the way you think!!!There are alot of ppl on here who get made that the game is not sim but they forget about the fun part i mean is that not why play games to have fun??pp get alittle to mad hell they can't make everyboby happy!!! I want my game to play sim- i what my game fast and fun- i don't care i just want to play some football..... That's alot of different gameplay...

7-year olds maybe. Pretty much worthless IMO.

Yea same here. Maybe I'll get drunk enough 1 night to try it if I get the game. Nah I'd probably pass out before I play a mascot game.

Video looks awesome, but Ohio State wears black socks, not white! That may seem stupid to some other people, but I need my schools uniforms perfect!

[janglar]

I'm liking what I see so far out of the video, but the proof will be in the gameplay. I'm also interested to see how many alternate uniforms they have in the game, and if they are the updated ones.

Re: NCAA Football 09 Debut Trailer

I see how this new control over jukes has already gone wrong. Did I see someone do a spin, then IMMEDIATELY spin in the other direction? I hope that's not their idea of more control.

- Very fluid, almost too fluid by looking at the Miami RB. He does a spin move and then spins back in the other direction without breaking stride or anything (scratches head).

The quick spin move in the opposite direction is another, although I am not to sure, they weren't trying for a fake spin move in that sequence.

That didn't look too natural.. and neither did a lot of the jukes they showed.. seemed stiff and slow or something.

Still got me a little more upbeat about the game.. the celebrations though, why can't they just have the players greet and do the mid air shoulder bump the player who scores?? Usually in college when a player scores, they aren't isolated alone to celebrate on their own.. especially with a mascot. Just have the players mob him no cut scene required. Little stuff like that takes a lot away from the experience.

Re: NCAA Football 09 Debut Trailer

they still got some ways to go, jukes seem overboard, hopefully we will be allowed to correct with sliders or so. secondly if you pause during the illinois game (where the audibles where) you can see LBs bending over touching there toes before the snap and a DL missing half of his body.

Re: NCAA Football 09 Debut Trailer

After watching the vid again, you have to ask yourself, "How much of this is actual in-game footage?" In the formation sets you never see them snap the ball and all other footage seems to be rendered.

Looks like a good movie so far (so did 08 when they released the trailer and that game IMO was terrible!), but until I see actual game footage then I will determine if I am going to let EA sucker me for my loot!
