Re: NCAA Football 11 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here
I will start off by saying that I have yet to play the demo (My 360 RR'ed on Sunday), so nothing I am saying directly reflects the gameplay in this current demo.
Although I do agree with you that too many people complain about every little thing, but I was reading your comments on the difficulty level and I disagree with you. If AA and Heisman are not simulation level difficulties, what is the proper difficulty for simulation? In year's prior Varsity is way too easy, so it cannot be a simulation. For example, if I play on Varsity and can take a 3 star program to the NC game the first year playing, that is not simulation. I believe that this is a problem that has plagued NCAA for years now, I believe that the difficulty level should be based off of the players ratings. For example, on Varsity your opponents ratings effect should be lowered for an easier experience for those that prefer an easier gameplay. AA should be your most realistic sim, where the the players attributes react realistically, and in which sliders can be adjusted to fit your belief in realistic gameplay. Heisman should be for those that want hardcore AI playing above their ratings. Again, this is just my opinion on my experiences playing the game. It definately gets boring winning the NC year after year because the AI just does not play to their actual ratings, but it is also annoying to see a QB go 20-27 for 400 yards as you would see consistantly in last years game.
