Re: Blog is up

I know. This was actually a pretty decent video. Some of the animations in this game are very smooth compared to NCAA 09. I like it. I also dig the strategy aspect of the game they are trying to infuse here. You don't have to do it, but if you want to, it's there. Good stuff.

Side note: How about the ND vs. BC score? 65-56 with time to go in the 4th. LOL

looks like they were playing 15 minute quarters though, later on you saw that same game with 13 minutes to go in the 4th.

Yep. Just noticed that after they showed that score.

I like the look of this game right now. Very sharp and smooth looking IMO. I can't get over the improvement in some of the WR catch animations and broken tackle animations. Very fluid. Also, the play fakes are performed well.

Re: Blog is up

I wonder if the realize how incompetent they make themselves look when they talk about the same thing like its something new especailly fluff like this.

Give it a rest. Incompetent? How exactly is this fluff again? They were highlighting some of the strategic elements of the game you can choose to do. They really didn't even talk Season Showdown. Did you even watch the video or were you just too busy bashing on your soapbox?

Re: Blog is up

They just mess everything up. Why would they give you a setup % that so kiddie it should happen but there shouldnt be a number on it.

I understand where you are coming from, but seriously, not everyone understands and loves the detail college football (or football in general) like most of us on this site. The %s are just a gauge for those who may not completely understand the value in playcalling and setting up plays and stringing together drives.

Re: Blog is up

I got to agree that the video was nice and all .... but we did already know about this aspect of the game .... I guess it is true that NCAA is the red headed step child compared to Madden ... even when it comes to blogs ... but ohh well ... nice video anyways .... but I'm sure I speak for a lot of peeps when I say .... let's talk new ... and I really mean new ... not those EA Sports "NEW FEATURES" kinda things ...

That's actually a complement for this game. NCAA 07 had dynamic lighting and more detail graphically.

I think it looks much better than '09.

Anyone notice the tweak in the QB dropback? See Terrelle Pryor. I think that looks much better than last year's Mach 4 awkward dropback from under center.

Not to me, I thought the players finally looked good in 09..They are too skinny right now in 10
