I'm hoping that Miami#55 is blocking Florida#52 to the ground and from the ground Florida #52 reaches for Miami#6. Please please don't let it be the can animation from the juke move.

Sweeet. Dreads, finally. Grass looks good too.

Anyone think the colors are a little washed out though?





I guess it could be the lighting, but washed out colors are something that seems to plague the majority of sports games.

Awesome photo EA. I figured they would start off with a pic with someone with dreads. I expect big things from this game

How can dreadlocks mean that much to anyone? I mean, really.

It boggles the mind.

Sure, it's a minor "oh hey, isn't that neat" concept. But truly, it doesn't change the game in any way shape or form. I just don't understand how people get that worked up over it.

It's like "woohoo, blue eyes were added into the game!!!!! ROXXORS!"... I mean, do those blue eyes somehow change the game?

Really who cares if they wear the proper uniforms or wear face mask. Who cares if every player is the same shade or the same jersey number? As long as game play is great right?

To me, the ball carrier's position looks like part of a new animation. maybe not?

Graphics and Visuals are important, but the fact that people put accessories like dreadlocks over gameplay, in terms of importance, does boggle the mind. Who cares how good a game looks if it plays terrible?

Anyway, I'm digging the new lighting, looks more realistic for sure, the grass is a nice touch and I love that they've gotten around to getting new helmets and facemasks in. Hopefully they've added more than just one helmet this year, like how they only added the Revo speed last year, and immediately showed it off in the first photo.

One thing that bugs me is how the untucked sleeves still look really weird.

edit* Actually just noticed that there are two new helmets this time, the schut Ion and the air.

Looks SICK!

Re: 25 New Plays Coming to NCAA Football 12

Hurts my soul that people actually are excited because dreads made it. I'd be more excited if it showed how weight and momentum impacted a play

Nah brah you got it all wrong. I was just happy that they finally posted something. I noticed the dreads and edited my post. Im guessing that dreads will not be able to be used online, because EA can't put dreads on specific players. Right?

Glad you posted this. Hopefully we can get the accurate socks AND shoes for the procombats. You know? Like in the real pic, UM has on the green socks and the cleats are team specific with their logo. I'm a big "uniforms", so I love all of the little details with the appearances.

Who side its one or the other? It has been said thousands of times there is a gameplay department and a graphic department. If we push for dreads and facemasks wont change whether or not game play is improved.
