Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

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.

How do you know it's replay mode? The mode doesn't matter, the rendering hasn't been fixed. Ask any EA developer, artist, or representative who visits the board. They go absolutely silent when the rendering is questioned and until they fix it the animations will lack fluidity and continue to look robotic.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

Okay I watched it again, and again. I do see the improvements, but I also see the flaws.

Seems that when coming out of a spin or juke, the player seems to glide for a few seconds. It's like a animation was skipped over that would have made it connect better. But overall, the game is improved. They need to fixed that choppiness and gliding issue before release. It will make the difference.

we know it's replay mode because those aren't gameplay camera angles and the guys who played it at cd seemed to feel it wasn't an accurate representation of the game mainly due to replay mode.

Yea, i think both games need a new engine.

And i originally watched the video on Pasta's site, thats where i got the info about replay mode.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

Just by what games I have played in the past 5 years, why shouldn't I compare it to a cheating ex-girlfriend? I'm sorry, but when you've given me what in my mind has not been a good football game for the past 5 years, why should I hold out all my optimism after the video you've shown me, with a few fixes I'll admit, still has MAJOR flaws.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

I can tell from your very recent join date that you must not be aware that this is the same cycle of events we have every year.

Pre-hype hysteria

Dev diary - blogs etc

Community proclaims beST GamE eVah!!

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.

I have been here forever and you hit the cycle some go through here on the nail.

Maybe, but the reactions to this vid are 100% accurate until we see otherwise. That was pathetic!

Maybe we love College Football and maybe im not a kid.....too many factors and age groups on this site to say things like that.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

Players floating around on the icy surface and db's warping magically to the ball again. No talent @ EA


That officially boosted their PS2 sales, so that's a plus for them atleast.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

Look I am going to buy it anyway so I am not the demo here but.....


THAT VIDEO WAS AWFUL!!!!!!!!

Why did they put that up?????? Thats just dumb marketing, I mean they had to realize that there were problems all over that.

Again I am a Midnight on release day buyer so I am not the one they have to impress but GEE WHIZ PEOPLE!!!!!! That was just bad and yes my excitement from hearing about the ESPN Intigration has definitely been knocked down a couple of levels after seeing this. I hope the morons from the development team sees this thread and someone gets a nice yelling at because that shouldn't have seen the light of day.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

This video leaves me less than impressed. There is nothing that makes it any different than '10. The weird cut by the Ohio State player (I think) at :38 seconds in shows no momentum or locomotion. The player just cuts on a dime.

Also, the Illinois player that does the spin move. He gets locked into an animation. Why would a player spin, stop half way and backup before continuing on? He wouldn't, its so he can "break the tackle" animation that he got sucked into.

This is largely disappointing. Some of the new locomotion stuff seemed to be in there but it looks no different, gives us no game play ideas and has some of the same mistakes and issues that appeared the last few years.

Everyone seems disappointed now, but I'm sure the hype machine will get running again.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

Yeah, that was not impressive at all. There is still too much "EA" in their games and not in a good sense. EA needs to start from scratch. Maybe it's Tiburon, I dunno.

Bottom line, they shouldn't have put this video out.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

it didn't have the ncaa 11 opening scene nor did it have the credits at the end
