Re: New Vids at Gamespot

Only thing I don't like is how quiet the CBS broadcast is

Re: New Vids at Gamespot

Good stuff. ESPN and CBS Overlays are spot on, Perfect. The announcing for CBS is definitly not as strong as ESPN but thats the price we pay for having 2 announcing teams.

Cant wait for this...

Re: New Vids at Gamespot

Yeah in the last video there were like 3 or 4 different periods were the broadcast team was dead silent for over 5 seconds.

Anyways nice vids love the stat overlays.

Nice crowd!

Re: New Vids at Gamespot

CBS one did sound awkwardly quiet. I hope they announce some names from a database. That would do wonders! It would get old very quickly hearing "#2", etc...

We'll see. I liked the crowd noise and GTown band, sounded good!

Yeah, I was asking about the names but no one answered. Even if they only did 250 common names. But when they don't have a name in the database these days, the announcers just won't say the name. Instead they'll say "he" or something. You'll notice that from the videos, none of em say "#whatever"

It may have just been the teams I used last year, but I don't think there is a huge name database in the franchise. As you mentioned, they do a good job with pronouns - "he", "the point guard", "this freshman", etc.

Well, I wouldn't be too worried about the lack of commentary with the CBS team. I'll expect more from the final version. I'm pretty excited for the game, though.

Commentary bad, everything else looks okay! I'll wait for a final build! Can't believe Gamespot released such short videos. Have they heard of the 5 minute rule.

I actually thought the CBS commentary was good. Gus and Raftery definetly interacted with each other. In every video game I've never not heard an akward silence for 5 seconds so that's expected. I believe it was just by chance they captured it that way. I don't think I'll even notice it when I'm playing.

The person playing this game was terrible with NCAAs momentum. I understand it is new and hard to get, but that was pretty bad. Other than that not too bad.

Crowd was loud and I loved it. Louder than every crowd I've ever heard in a videogame without 2k's annoying whistle in 2k8.

Where are those dynasty videos Jab? Haha I'm so excited for them.

This is actually something I noticed last year and it really bothered me. Usually they'll have star players' last names but even last year there were a TON of names not said. Names that I thought were common weren't even said. I was really hoping that they took NCAA FB's name submission list and recorded those. But with them bringing in the new team I'm sure all the focus was on getting them somewhere decent.

The commentary was quite weak there yes.
