NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

I would say something constructive but everybody pretty much pointed out what needs work...I just dont see them making any changes to those awful looking animations

At least the Madden trailer debuts Thursday night.

I agree, this looks almost the same. I can tell that they added more animations, but they did that last year. It's hard to see locomotion when you've got a close-up and they slow the tape down. In any event, two things still look silly; the way they run and the bulky player models.

Not mad at this point, just so disapointed. Why can't they capture the look and feel of an athlete? MLB the Show does, FIFA does, Madden sorta does, heck NCAA PS2 did. I will still get the game, but I'm just not as excited anymore. I have to say this kinda sucks.

Pre-hype hysteria

Subpar videos released

Community proclaims they are alpha builds, not to panic

Same members get the game early and proclaim beST GamE eVah again...released game is nothing like the videos

Hype resumes full throttle

2000 post thread on "When and where did you get it " thread

Rest of forum gets the game and notices game is exact same as video / demo etc that was reported to be " alpha build " video.

The folks that get the game earlier finally admit that maybe in their excitement they exaggerated about the game being improved.

600 post thread on "Bugs and Glitches thread"

500 post thread on " What should be in patch 1 and 2 thread "

200 post thread started on " Wishlist for 2012"

" Im done with EA and their fooball games and not buying another one" threads pop up and get locked "

Repeat cycle and just change the year.

It never fails, every year this is the pattern. Its as sure as the sun rising every morning.

perfectly done. I wish it wasn't true though...

Wow, too think .. I thought this was gonna be my first ever NCAA Football purchase, I'll pass. Feet don't plant, locomotion looks meh, and the physics still aren't up tp par. Hopefully Madden is somewhat better.

I said the same thing. I really thought I was going to get NCAA this year, but man this looks the same ol same ol EA Sports football. I don't care if it's still early, blah blah blah. Madden won't be any better, smh.

As a football fan, I'm beyond frustrated. For the first time ever this year, I could not decide whether to get 2k or NBA Live. To me that was a very good thing. EA just needs some competition to push them, too bad we won't get it. Instead we have to deal with the mess you see in that video.

Screenshots look like crap too. lol. They making my Tide look bad. For one Ingram doesnt even wear that old box facemask and two the players look robotic. jeez. EA do us all a favor and give up the license for college football.

And boom! With one video, the hype train has completely derailed.

This video leaves a ton to be desired.

My thoughts exactly. I'll just leave it at that.

The spin move and the ability to break out of it or something has always been "weird/awkward".

Side note...I like your Tebow cover design a lot better than the real one.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

actually its better than i expected, when they said they were using fifa tech i said " o god" and the delight of guys here showed me they didnt play fifa especially on WC

in fifa players would be running at top speed and kick a ball without any leverage for power, stop on a dime etc....

anyway the players having the stutter feet animation is a plus for me because it looks better than the zig zagg trash

once again expectations were too high

I can only speak for myself, and I know I'm not expecting perfection, but the game just doesn't animate realistically, or even smoothly. I know it's early but really, how often do these video turn up looking totally different from the final? It's like the animations are missing frames or something. Idk, time will tell, but I'm not positive about this game anymore.

Yep the animation is not good(even for a 1st attempt). I animate better than this. These run cycles look okay, but the spins need more keyframes(a lot more).

100% the truth. LMAO! What you see is what you're gonna get. Damn U EA release the license to someone that cares.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

I hope that isnt the only video they release this week. If so, they are going to leave a lot of people pissed. lmao

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

Im not as off put as some. Maybe I wasnt expecting as much. I see the improvement in it more from 10 to 11 then 09 to 10 so Im not tripping.

**sinc79** · 04-19-2010, 06:31 PM

TE #82 for Ohio State can turn on a dime and doesn't have momentum carrying him the other way, must have 98 agility if I'm reading all the EA blogs correctly.
