Sounds good.

I just hope Roy's first name isn't "Precious":

O'Dogg, maybe we get dreadlocks this year (you and I have been on the dreads crusade for 3 years now). I'm going out on a limb, I hope I'm right, I think this Roy fella is gonna give us team entrances and dreadlocks this year. I'll be disappointed if he doesn't. But this is the first time in a long time that I think we may get these 2 features.

Sorry guys I'm just not totally convinced that anything is going to change. Talk is cheap, and until I see some hard evidence that this is going to be a good game, I'm still not getting hyped.


Of course for all I know this could be the best football game ever made. Its still March, so we'll see.

I'm with you. Wait and see. Rent before I buy. EA has robbed me too many times.

Check out the crowd texture in this video from EA fifa world cup. I know this is ncaa forum but can you imagine if ncaa and madden had crowds like that. and talk about momentum and foot planting. that shows me under the current engine that EA has is capable

Would you look at that... coach and crowd cutscenes, and an animation of a victory celebration. Just turn the World Cup trophy into a crystal football, and we're nearly there.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Blog: A New Game Plan

After buying NCAA for years in the PS2/XBox era, and enjoying it for the most part...along came the multiple disappointments of this current gen. And I finally just gave up.

After falling for the hype for so many years...I just don't have it in me anymore. It must be proven to me gameplay etc, is actually much improved, by way of several gameplay videos. The right things have been said before, and the end result was imo...blah.

I really hope the words ring true in July. Because I'd like to get back to playing a decent college football game.

[blackscorpion11]

sounds like this guy just might "get it"... thank god.



IMO (and hope), this means better dynasty, authentic broadcast/atmosphere, and modes we actually want to see in the game.

I liked this the most:



What could this mean though? Will it play like an updated version of last gen?

i could live with an updated version of last gen over what it is now.. i still swear by ncaa 2006's gameplay

I'm with you, but in all honesty..I have never heard these specific statements/ promises of change made by the current Devs.. Last year they changed everything BUT the gameplay. minor tweaks aren't worth $65 in my opinion, especially if they don't fix core issues.

Sting - I pray hard each year for dredlocks and long hair but each year my dreams are shattered like broken glass.

blackscorpion - I completey disagree about not changing gameplay. IMO NCAA 09 to 10 was mostly about gameplay as the game not only played better but had a more unpredictable and organic nature. I think the main issue now is just how poor the graphics, sound and animation is, although make no mistake, the gameplay could certainly stand alot of improvement as well still.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Blog: A New Game Plan

Sounds good, but I am going to wait for some hard evidence that things are really going change before I start jumping up and down.

And I couldn't disagree more with ODOGG about the gameplay in NCAA 10 being "organic and unpredictable." If anything I thought it was the exact opposite. Everything from o-line vs d-line interaction to the way most plays played out in general felt stale and predictable with very limited outcomes.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Blog: A New Game Plan

mgoblue - let me clarify, I don't think we disagree really...I agree it's nowhere near where it should be. I said it was more organic and unpredictable than 09. It still needs a lot of improvement.
