    NCAA Football 11 Blog: Locomotion, 7 Screenshots and Video (EA Sports)

    EA Sports has just posted another NCAA Football 11 blog. This one covers locomotion, which includes some new screenshots and video.

    <script src="http://player.ooyala.com/player.js?height=309&embedCode=JudThiMToZtgKBnQQBv ayelXL2zQZ5zm&width=550&deepLinkEmbedCode=JudThiMT oZtgKBnQQBvayelXL2zQZ5zm"></script>

    "One of the first areas we concentrated on for NCAA Football 11 was to create more realistic player acceleration. In previous versions, there wasn't a noticeable difference between players with a high acceleration rating versus players with a lower one, as speed was the only thing that seemed to matter. For the first time in NCAA Football 11, acceleration will be a huge factor into how quickly a player can reach their top speed. This new acceleration will also help differentiate the styles of players across the various positions on the field. For example, a "Possession" type receiver may have a high acceleration rating but not have that breakaway speed that a "Speed" receiver possesses in the open field. However, this possession receiver will have the ability to get in and out of his cuts, and back to full speed on his routes quicker. Another area where acceleration is a big factor is differentiating speed type rushers versus the more conventional run-stopping defensive lineman. Defensive ends that have a high acceleration rating will be able to get off the ball and to the quarterback quicker, due to their top end speed. The bigger interior type defensive lineman will have a harder time trying to speed rush, as it will take them longer to accelerate to top speed."

      looking good.
      I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

      I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

          This... is... nice.

          At this point the only person allowed to be skeptical about NCAA11 is B4C since we haven't seen the Iowa facemasks.

                yes, it'll be nice to see that again. it was in NCAA '08(360), however, I do not think you could actually "steer" them then.

                that video looked nice though. now I'm waiting on some dynasty updates.

                  I had to watch that vid twice in a row, great stuff. Even though this was about locomotion I couldnt help notice how great the visuals are.

                    Love hearing that as well, reminds me of 2k.

                    This video was great... hopefully this game can finally live up to the hype.

                        Agreed. In NCAA10 I hated playing against teams like Cal and Michigan because their blue uniforms were too glossy and saturated; Michigan looks a lot better in those vids.

                            This is what I'm talking about. Everything looks really good. I hope they also worked on the blocking. Saw a guy running around on the line like he didn't know what to do. I hope this series can return to the greatness it once was.

                              That looks a whole lot better! Did notice they still have the Rugby-sized football, though. But, overall, things are looking pretty darn good!
