Re: Building a Better NCAA Football 12

I love this game, and still play it near every day. I dont see that changing until NCAA 12 released.

This is the most fun I have had playing next gen football, and it isnt even close.

I think it is ahead of Madden to be honest.

There are a few things that I think EA should consider.

1) They need to reclassify the Quarterback categories.

You cannot use QBs in this game, like Cam Newton or Denard Robinson are used, because they are either going to fumble the ball all over the joint, or get injured.

These type of QBs run like HBs, but in NCAA 11, the simply run like fast quarterbacks.

College QBS need to be classified as:

Pro Style: Your Landry Jones, Andrew Luck, John Brantley, Matt Barkley type

Spread Balanced: Colt McCoy: He's a good thrower, with good enough wheels to hurt you, if you dont honor the QB keep.

Spread Option: Your 15-20 carry a game, spread QB. They should have HB like running ratings, and be able to throw on the move, better then from in the pocket.

2) Run blocking out of the shotgun needs to be enhanced. In NCAA 11, running the ball out of the shotgun is more about tricking someone, and catching them off-guard, as opposed to being able to line up and run it.

3) Balance between man and zone coverage: Too much route mirroring in man coverage, too little assignment recognition in underneath zone coverage.

4) Ditch the gameplanning.
--its silly. My players ratings and situational awarness should dictate how well they play. I shouldnt have to tell my defense to "key pass" on 3rd and long, so that the pass rushers and coverage people, dont get duped on PA Pass.

5) PLaybook creator!!
--I appreciate the Run & Shoot being in the game. Its my all time favorite offense..unfortunatrly there are a ton of formations and plays that have nothing to do with the R&S (Hawaii and SMU playbooks with a TE formation??) Allow me to remove the clutter and keep what I want.

I agree with all five points that would be a huge step for the ncaa football series

9. Sanctions- You should be able to go outside the box to get that top recruit, but if u get caught u should pay the price.

NCAA will never allow that in a game with their license on it.

[DocKnowsBest]

Can't wait! NCAA 11 is probably one of the best football games I've played; definitely the best "next-gen" football game made to date. Maybe on top of patches to fix game glitches, they can offer downloads for updated uniforms and bowl game logos/locations?Just a thought.

1. Custom playbooks!!!!!
2. New announcers or at least revamped dialogue
3. They need to give the user more control over off-season training. Like an in-season point system that gives you training pts to use off-season e.g. True freshman makes a catch = 1 point.
4. Allow some recruits to be able to enroll early so they can earn training pts

Re: Building a Better NCAA Football 12

-Custom Playbooks w/ play creator

-Coaching Carousel, w/ coordinators

-Editable Rosters in Dynasty

-Improve sidelines. I will admit it has gotten better, but I hate seeing my team on the sideline jumping up and down clapping their hands like a fat cheerleader when I overthrow a reciever, or in the background during a penalty called on me.

[BlastX21]

Re: Building a Better NCAA Football 12

Custom playbooks (NOT available on online random or lobby matches though)

Higher ball arc

Increase 4 man pass rush. A lot. Please.

Adaptive AI that will run routes ahead of the wide receivers if they run the same play enough times.

[rromer]

I can't believe gameplay isn't the first thing on everyone list. Why are tackles still dynamic even though pro-tak promised to change that? Why is my forward momentum being stopped by a player that isn't even looking at the ball carrier? Things are still too animation heavy, balls that are going right through body parts.

Gameplay for me is always at the top, cpu logic on defense (too many all out blitzes on 3rd down). The huge glitch that was never adressed and caused me to sell the game. The glitch were the cpu would attempt 58 to 65 yard fg's EVERY time only on the heisman level ruined the strategy of the game. It was well stated among heisman level players but never adressed in any patches. The graphics and responsivness of the players were great. I really hated that the fg glitch made this game unplayable for me. This has to be fixed in 12.

[JerseySuave4]

they need to really change the menus. The menus last year were so slow to scroll through. The menus should move much quicker and smoother. They also need to have more neutral games and let you add neutral games for custom schedules and allow you to change the time of the game. Last but not least the player need to be more athletic. They dont feel like athletes. The way they move is so stiff. And add different QB throwing motions, different RB running motions for us to choose from. Each player should run and throw the same way.

Outside of NCAA 11, The most fun that I have had playing a college football game had to have been NCAA 06 or 07 (I draw a blur between the two for some reason). Bring back the full college experience! Examples are:

1. Sports Illustrated covers - nuff said.

2. Weekly practice - an ACTUAL practice mode that let's you play defense or offense against a formation used by your upcoming opponent.

3. NCAA Rules/Penalties - It was really a lot of fun and a huge challenge having to deal with your players getting into trouble and you having to decide what the punishment would be. This should also be tied into your personality coach wise and how the relationship between the coach and the players determine any outcome.

4. Better presentation! - Pre-game predictions, NCAA score updates from other games, more dynamic weather (like really? is there EVER an overcast or rain at night?), halftime show, key matchups in-game, etc.

5. Intangibles - bring back the Senior Game. Bring back ACTUAL training for players.
