NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

And why should we all of a sudden not think that? It has been that way since we started "next-gen" and the only video released has shown it again. Why should I be optimistic, even if it is a replay?

Well, I can only speak for myself of course, but I'll always be optimistic for the simple fact that I'm a football game fanatic. So, with each new release it only makes sense for me to want it to be better than the last iteration (which each year has been except for the extreme speed of last years version).

On top of that, I enjoyed Madden 10, so I know NCAA 11 is going to be decent enough for me to play it. They always get the remnants of the previous Madden engine with refinement.

Man, anybody with an ounce of sense should know good and damn well the game is not going to move all jittery and choppy like that video.

That video looked worse than 10, and you know good and well the **** aint about to regress. It might not improve the way some folks want it to, but it most definitely is going to be better than 10. Thats a given. Each iteration is ahead of the last.

That vid looked like it was moving at 2 frames per second or something. If you enjoy football titles, if ya ask me, you have no choice but to WANT the game to better.

Hell, I can't stand the player movement of the current iteration myself, but the game still aint half bad. Still enjoy it immensely. You already know the madden engine for 2010 is going to be the NCAA for 2011 with refinement, so if you enjoyed Madden 10, trust me you'll like NCAA11.

Point of all of this being. That video was ****ty but like I say, if you have an ounce of sense, you know that **** ain't no where near final.

So if you're going to buy, thats cool. If not, too bad so sad for ya, lol. I'm all over NCAA, Madden, and Backbreaker this year. Bunch of fairweather fans if I ever seen some, lol.

Really son? You keep telling yourself that...

Quite frankly, it looks terrible. I'm tired of defending EA. They have too much of my money to continue to do so.

Maybe if this vid was for NCAA '07 i'd be impressed. Sheesh-us.

Marginally yes, but I don't see how anybody could argue the improvement has been as much as it should be. Not to mention the bar set by previous iterations on next gen haven't been that high.

I don't think simply any kind improvement should be the measure because improvement could simply mean going from a bad game to mediocre game. The bar just like anything in life should be how good is this game in relation to other games and particularly to the best which would be something like The Show. Can anybody reasonable argue this game is anywhere close to a game like The Show in terms of replicating the sport or in terms of overall quality? And yes I realize they are two different sports but the standard in terms of quality should still be similar.

The bottom line to me is this series is still nowhere where it should be regardless of showing marginal improvement each year.

I just can't justify buying the game again this year if it turns out to be mediocre regardless of how much I love college football. Not like there isn't another football option out there this year.

And this is the mentality that enables EA to only marginal improve the game each year. The NCAA dev team isn't my favorite sports team, I don't owe them any kind of loyalty. This isn't a charity, either make a quality product that shows more than marginal improvement each year or I will take my $60 elsewhere. It is that simple.

"Sense"? If it don't make dollars, then it don't make cents.

Buy used. Your money is the only "input from the community" that's understood. Every new copy sold is a pat on their back.

I'm HAPPY to pay TOP dollar for a QUALITY product.

Until then, I'm at Gamestop waiting to purchase your traded in disappointment.

You're not referring to purchasing MY disappointment at gamestop right?l Sheeit, my NCAA 2010 is still spinning in my 360 at least once or twice a week. So you know 2011'll be getting spin time until 2012, trust that lol. Watch and see what we get this year.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

All that means is they saw the negative response to the video and took it down for that reason. Doesn't mean the video is not representative of the current state of the game, even though that is a possibility.

I fail to see however how it makes the video meaningless just because they pulled it.

and in past years all the official videos posted got such great responses? if it was really meant to be released not only would they not of pulled it no matter what, but it'd also be on the official website which it never was.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

Fairweather fans? How does that even apply to a game with no competition? We have no other choice. I think what you're looking for is "getting our hopes up".

Lets just hope that thats not the final product because that just straight sucked. EA has no excuse for they're constant disappointment they dish out to College Football fans. They have the money and I know they have the technology, but it seems that their just stretching out some old outdated engine until they decide to put up the money to develop or aquire a new one.

If this locomotion is a new engine then why does it look exactly like the old one.This is the same robotic and choppy engine that they have forced on us for the last 5 years. !@#%!@#$@! this better not be real gameplay!!!

And once again that makes it meaningless somehow? Even if it is an earlier build how do we know the current build isn't similar in the areas that people didn't like?

What has the NCAA team really done the last couple of years to make me trust that the video will not be representative of the final product? That may be the case, but it may not either.

never said it was meaningless I just find it very odd that an actual gameplay vid released by EA A) wouldn't be on the official website and B) wouldn't have all the intro bells and whistles that we're accustomed to. I'm with you that if that video is representative of the final product alot of people including me will be very very upset. hopefully we'll see something better from them by the end of the week.

In that case I would agree. Sorry if I misunderstood what you were trying to say.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Video: Gameplay Footage

yeah, i'm not getting this years either. The last few have just not improved enough to warrant me buying it this year. they are just stealing people's money.
