NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

[Jessep07]

Your optimism is admirable but money is money. EA would never pull a stunt that could potentially hurt their sales; be it by one gamer or one million gamers, it's not smart business. If you want to be optimistic that's fine but be optimistic that the glaring problems in the video can (and will) be fixed, not that this whole thing was just a huge gag that fell flat.

We've all been severely let down by EA in the past. Rather than dwell on the negative, I'll retain my optimism and hope for a game that will at least keep me entertained.

It's quite pathetic that a series that once had me on pins and needles for weeks/months up until release has turned me into a man who expects marginal improvements. EA has turned me into a man who prefers optimism and ignorance. Terrible.

lol it looked like and unedited locomotion vid that was released earlier. I think what makes it so bad is the timing. I mean it was released so close to the locomotion vid and chats.

I know no one is going to want to hear this, but one of the guys who attended the community day event had this to say about the video:

Now that was why i said that i'll wait until more videos drop before i'm fully deflated. but my GOD what a horrible way to start.

Can we really expect a drastic change from this build to the final build? I really hope so because this video was atrocious. How disappointing EA.... heres to hoping they come out with a better gameplay video soon.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

The amount of motion shifting is rediculous.

LMAO...Some of these overreactions are ridiculous. This is played @ half the frame rate folks...its replay mode. People are cursing EA, comparing a game to cheating ex-girlfriends, just going all out...its just a video game kids! Don't give me the "i work hard for my money" speech cause if you we so worried about money you wouldn't be paying for internet to come on here and complain about a Video Games that you prolly buy every year anyway...


BTW the next video most folks will exhale...and then just back on the bandwagon....but this is fun to watch, kept me entertained through class.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

this must be a joke.. right? I mean there were SOME bits and pieces of "greatness" in that clip but that spin at the end?! are you kidding?! Who would look at that and be say "WOW THAT SPIN ANIMATION WAS AMAZING!!!" The marketing team couldnt find a better animation to put in there to at least BS us??? lol I think i could make a trailer that looked better than that with NCAA 10

I don't think I'm on the "this is a prank" team here, but it is very odd that this video is nowhere to be found on the official website. Also, the guys who've played the game on NCAA strategies seem to be laughing this thing off so I'm still feeling pretty good about the game.

It's all good, I think I'm the only one on the team anyway.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

Well I did some research on EA's site and there is hardly any mention of it. Even in the forums. Plus when has EA ever had a first look at the game without their signature "sizzle" trailer ? You know their big dramatic "120 ways to win", or "ESPN is in the game" or any of their marketing genius that lures us in year in year out? Something's just not sitting right with me.

Does anyone agree? When has EA ever released a random video for a game? Or a video is out on every site but theirs? I mean really. I'm not quite convinced yet. All of you who claim to been buying games for years remember them doing this? We've been getting info so far from EA now all of a sudden we get a video and can't trace it back to EA ?

[CardsFan52]

They probably didn't make a big statement about it because its a replay.

well at least you won't have arguments over playing time!

and to DDP24 I totally agree this whole thing just doesn't make any sense

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

At first I was like "Oh my God I've been hoodwinked", but I calmed down and did some research. And I feel a bit better now that I've forced myself to feel otherwise.

Ive been saying that this is a joke and were it, so lets laugh it off and wait on the next vid with them telling us so..

I hope so. But this not a joke. EA didn't put this video out
